It has the property called <em>caloric mimetic restriction<\/em> that allows cells to live longer.<br \/>\nUnlike other flavonols, most isoflavones, and other flavonoids, fisetin is toxic. It can also cause DNA mutation.<\/p>\n<p>Although its <strong>toxic effects<\/strong> are mild, they should always be considered if you wish to include it in your diet through one of the supplements enriched with fisetin.<\/p>\n<p>Another property of fisetin is that it <strong>activates sirtuins<\/strong>, <em>enzymes that regulate the expression of some genes<\/em> (<em>epigenetics<\/em>). This quality is related to the mentioned caloric restriction which, in vivo, has been shown to extend the life of cellular tissues, serving to rejuvenate cells, keep skin younger, and ultimately could serve as a basis for developing studies that make humans live longer.<\/p>\n<p>It also has <strong>benefits for memory<\/strong>, improving long-term memory function. The study by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maladie-du-bois-vigne.fr\/maladies-du-bois-vigne_eng\/Publications\/2012\/Maher-et-al.-2012\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">P. Maher et al.<\/a> conducted an analysis to verify if, indeed, people who consumed foods with fisetin had an increase in long-term memory or, alternatively, preserved it intact as they aged.<\/p>\n<p>The cited study was conducted with mice, indicating that there was an increase in proteasome activity, <strong>keeping nerve cells active for longer periods<\/strong>, which are involved in the development of dementia, Parkinson&#8217;s, and Alzheimer&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p>The same scientist has also conducted another study, but instead of verifying cognitive ability, this time he focused on the effects and properties of <strong>fisetin for diabetes<\/strong>. According to Maher himself, a diet rich in strawberries, fruit with a high amount of fisetin, reduces blood sugar levels.<\/p>\n<p>The study also showed data on the anti-inflammatory properties common to all flavonoids.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"Fisetin-and-Citrulline\">Fisetin and Citrulline<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>It is quite common to find the combination of the amino acid citrulline with the flavonoid fisetin.<br \/>\nThese are used against intestinal inflammation, gastrointestinal disorders, irritable bowel syndrome, and conditions affecting the digestive tract.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"Foods\">Foods<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1328 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.flavonoides.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/fisetin-food.jpg\" alt=\"Best foods with fisetin\" width=\"700\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.flavonoides.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/fisetin-food.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.flavonoides.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/fisetin-food-336x144.jpg 336w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Alfalfa (<em>Medicago sativa<\/em>).<\/li>\n<li>Peas (<em>Vicia sativa<\/em>).<\/li>\n<li>Persimmons (\/kaki\/)).<\/li>\n<li>Onions (<em>Allium<\/em>).<\/li>\n<li>Strawberries (<em>Fragaria<\/em>).<\/li>\n<li>Chickpeas (<em>Cicer arietinum<\/em>).<\/li>\n<li>Green peas (<em>Pisum sativum<\/em>).<\/li>\n<li>Fava beans (<em>Vicia faba<\/em>).<\/li>\n<li>Beans (<em>Phaseolus vulgaris<\/em>).<\/li>\n<li>Lentils (<em>Lens culinaris<\/em>).<\/li>\n<li>Cucumbers (<em>Cucumis sativus<\/em>).<\/li>\n<li>Peanuts (<em>Arachis hypogaea<\/em>).<\/li>\n<li>Apples (<em>Malus domestica<\/em>).<\/li>\n<li>Tamarind (<em>Tamarindus indica<\/em>).<\/li>\n<li>Tea (<em>Camellia sinensis<\/em>).<\/li>\n<li>Soybeans (<em>Glycine max<\/em>).<\/li>\n<li>Grapes (<em>Vitis<\/em>).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The most common foods with fisetin are those from the <em>Fabaceae<\/em> family, legumes and pulses such as lentils, chickpeas, as well as many fruits like persimmons, strawberries, etc.<br \/>\nThis flavonoid can also be found in other non-edible plants, but used by humans for their invaluable therapeutic value.
