Dihydroquercetin is also a natural polyphenol with a chemical structure similar to quercetin, which also exists in some plants and has biological activities such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer. It is considered a metabolite and precursor of quercetin, so its pharmacological effects overlap with those of quercetin.
