Brief description:

Rutin is a bioflavonoid. Pure rutin is yellow or yellow-green colored needle-shaped crystal. Rutin is a flavonol glycoside comprised of the quercetin and the disaccharide rutinose (rhamnose and glucose).

Function:

1.Rutin inhibits platelet aggregation, as well as decreasing capillary permeability making the blood thinner and improving circulation. 
2.Rutin has anti-inflammatory activity. 
3.Rutin inhibits aldose reductase activity. Aldose reductase is an enzyme normally present in the eye and elsewhere in the body. It helps change glucose into a sugar alcohol called sorbitol.
4.Rutin also strengthens the capillaries, and, therefore, can reduce the symptoms of haemophilia. It also may help to prevent a common unpleasant-looking venous edema of the legs. Rutin, as ferulic acid, can reduce the cytotoxicity of oxidized LDL cholesterol and lower the risk of heart disease. 
5.Rutin is also an antioxidant, along with quercetin, acacetin, morin, hispidulin, hesperidin, and naringin, it was found to be the strongest. 
6.Hydroxyethylrutosides, synthetic hydroxyethyl acetylations of rutin, are used in the treatment of chronic venous insufficiency.

7.There are indications that rutin can inhibit some cancerous and pre-cancerous conditions. 
8.Rutin may help to prevent atherogenesis and reduce the cytotoxicity of oxidized LDL-cholesterol.
