Quercetin for Microvascular Function in Obesity
This study is looking at how a dietary supplement called Quercetin might affect the health of your smallest blood vessels (microvasculature). Researchers want to see if taking Quercetin daily for 30 days can improve how well these tiny blood vessels expand. You might be able to join if you are between 18 and 40 years old, speak English, and have obesity (a BMI over 30). The study aims to find out if Quercetin makes a difference in blood vessel dilation, which is measured after 2 hours. The current status of this study is unclear.
- Study design
- This is an interventional study planning to enroll 40 participants. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either Quercetin or a placebo (a sugar pill).
- What's involved
- You would take one Quercetin pill per day for 30 days. You would also have two blood draws, a camera placed under your tongue to view blood vessels, and two catheters placed on your forearm to monitor blood vessels.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- The primary outcome measures changes in blood vessel dilation at 2 hours.

Peripheral microvascular dilation in response to acetylcholine, L-NAME, and sodium nitroprusside infusions will be measured using laser Doppler flowmetry with microdialysis.
