Your eyes are constantly under stress — from screens, UV exposure, pollution, and the natural effects of ageing. But there’s growing evidence that quercetin , a powerful antioxidant flavonoid, can help protect your vision and support long-term eye health.

Let’s break down the research — and explore how The Zombie – Quercetin delivers this support in a potent, bioavailable form.


What Is Quercetin?

Quercetin is a plant-based flavonoid found in foods like:

  • Apples

  • Onions

  • Citrus fruits

  • Berries

  • Red wine

It’s been studied for its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and immune-modulating properties — and more recently, its potential to protect the eyes from oxidative stress and age-related damage .



How Quercetin Supports Eye Health

Quercetin may benefit your vision in the following ways:

🛡️ Shields Against Oxidative Stress

The retina is especially vulnerable to free radicals . Quercetin neutralises these and helps protect eye cells from premature degeneration.

🌈 Protects Against Age-Related Eye Conditions

Studies suggest quercetin may slow the progression of:

  • Age-related macular degeneration (AMD)

  • Cataracts

  • Glaucoma

😌 Reduces Eye Inflammation

Inflammation plays a key role in chronic eye conditions. Quercetin supports a balanced inflammatory response , reducing dryness, redness, and irritation.

👁️ Supports Visual Acuity

By protecting the structural integrity of the retina and improving capillary health, quercetin may improve clarity and contrast in visual perception.



The Zombie – Quercetin by For Youth

The Zombie uses Quercetin Phytosome™ , a clinically enhanced form that delivers up to 20x better absorption than standard quercetin.

Why it matters:

  • ✔️ Better absorption = more antioxidant power

  • ✔️ Targets cellular inflammation — including in delicate tissues like the eyes

  • ✔️ Acts as a senolytic , clearing out aged, dysfunctional cells that accelerate degeneration

It’s designed for daily use — and for anyone serious about long-term vision protection and healthy ageing.



What About Zinc and Other Synergies?

Quercetin works even better when paired with:

  • Zinc – supports immune and retinal function

  • Lutein & Zeaxanthin – antioxidants concentrated in the retina

  • Vitamin C – enhances absorption and immune protection

While The Zombie is standalone, it fits easily into any broader vision- or immune-support protocol.



Is Quercetin Safe for Long-Term Use?

Yes — quercetin is well tolerated and generally safe for healthy adults and older children.

A few tips:

  • Those with allergies to quercetin-rich plants should consult a doctor

  • If taking blood thinners or prescription meds, check for interactions

  • Take with food to minimise stomach sensitivity

Always follow dosage guidelines on the label — and trust science-backed brands.



Final Thoughts

Your vision deserves protection — not just from age, but from everyday stress.

The Zombie – Quercetin delivers high-performance antioxidant protection in a form your body can actually absorb. From reducing inflammation to defending against oxidative damage, it’s a small daily step toward clearer, stronger, longer-lasting vision .

Don’t wait until your eyesight fades to start protecting it.
