This has a useful table at the end for each type of flavonoid and the corresponding plants. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5465813/#!po=13.3028

Along with guinea pigs & bats, humans are the only mammals whose livers do not typically produce their own mega-doses of Vitamin C from glucose when they're ill or encounter some kind of environmental toxin. This is thought to be an epigenetic mutation affecting most but not 100% of humans. New studies have found supplementation with a specific polyphenol ( hydroxytyrosol ) can turn this ability back on, at least for a time, if not permanently. This is very important info. Keep some on hand if/when you get ill, or if you have been vaccinated (voluntarily or not) as it will be a force-multiplier for any Vitamin C and other anti-oxidants (NAC, Quercetin, Glutathione, et. al.) you may take to try to combat vax damage or illness. http://orthomolecular.org/resources/omns/v18n14.shtml

Thank you for this information! Are there retailers or brands you’d recommend for the flavonoid supplements (or things consumers should look for when purchasing)?
