Rutin is a plant constituent recognized for it s many medial benefits. It is an antioxidant, anti inflammatory and its anticarcinogenic properties. It also has cytoprotective. You have probably had rutin and didn’t lknow it. Rutin is found in buckwheat, black tea and apple peels.
It scavenges free radical which prevents disease and also chelates iron to protect cell damage,
As a Connecticut gardener there are many invasive plants that contain Rutin. The ones that have planted are wormwood, yarrow, and St John’s wort.
Other invasive plants that contain Rutin that I have not planted yet include Jimsonweed, barberry, Japanese honeysuckle and Japanese knotweed.
Until tomorrow…
