Luteolin and Quercetin: what the published research says

PubMed indexes 8 records that name Luteolin and Quercetin together, either in the title or in an interaction, co-administration, or pharmacokinetic context. Each one is listed below with its study design and, where the abstract states one, the authors’ own conclusion, quoted and linked. This page reports that literature. It does not tell you whether to combine them.

Read this first

An evidence index, not guidance.

Every statement below is attributed to a named, dated, linked source.

This page lists published research relevant to Luteolin and Quercetin. It deliberately does not state whether the combination is safe, whether it interacts, in which direction, at what dose, or how far apart to take them.

The research

8 studies naming Luteolin and Quercetin.

Strongest relevance first: papers naming both substances in the title, then human trials and systematic reviews.

Role of Plant Phytochemicals: Resveratrol, Curcumin, Luteolin and Quercetin in Demyelination, Neurodegeneration, and Epilepsy.

Antioxidants (Basel, Switzerland) · 2024 · PMID 39594506

Review

“Among over 8000 various compounds, that have been identified, the most widely examined comprise resveratrol, curcumin, luteolin and quercetin. This review focuses on in vitro assessments, animal models and clinical trials, reflecting the most actual state of knowledge, of mentioned polyphenols' medicinal capabilities in epilepsy, demyelinating and neurodegenerative diseases of the central nervous system.”

Grabarczyk et al. · From the abstract

Names both Luteolin and Quercetin in its title.

Antiatherogenic Roles of Dietary Flavonoids Chrysin, Quercetin, and Luteolin.

Journal of cardiovascular pharmacology · 2016 · PMID 27385185

ReviewHuman subjects

“Flavonoids, the plant-derived polyphenols, are known for their antiinflammatory properties. This review discusses the possible antiatherogenic role of 3 flavonoids, namely, chrysin, quercetin, and luteolin primarily known for their antiinflammatory properties.”

Basu et al. · From the abstract

Names both Luteolin and Quercetin in its title.

Flavonoid (myricetin, quercetin, kaempferol, luteolin, and apigenin) content of edible tropical plants.

Journal of agricultural and food chemistry · 2001 · PMID 11410016

“In vegetables, quercetin glycosides predominate, but glycosides of kaempferol, luteolin, and apigenin are also present. Fruits contain almost exclusively quercetin glycosides, whereas kaempferol and myricetin glycosides are found only in trace quantities.”

Miean et al. · From the abstract

Names both Luteolin and Quercetin in its title.

Therapeutic potential of traditional Chinese medicine in the prevention and treatment of digestive inflammatory cancer transformation: Portulaca oleracea L. as a promising drug.

Journal of ethnopharmacology · 2024 · PMID 38447616

Meta-AnalysisReviewHuman subjects

“The discovery of the beneficial effects of these natural active compounds in POL supports the idea that POL could be a promising novel candidate for the treatment and prevention of inflammation-related cancers of the digestive system. However, clinical data describing the mode of action of the naturally active compounds of POL are still lacking.”

Shao et al. · Authors' conclusion

Names Luteolin and Quercetin together in an interaction, co-administration, or pharmacokinetic context.

Limitations

What this evidence cannot tell you.

Search-based evidence indexes have real limits, and it is worth being explicit about them:

NutriStack

Track what you actually take.

NutriStack is a free iPhone app for organising a supplement routine: what you take, when, and what the published record says about it. Its exploratory interaction checker covers Luteolin, Quercetin, and several hundred other substances.

The checker is a research and organisation tool, not a clinical decision aid, and its per-pair assessments are excluded from search until they pass claim-level review.
