Would you imply that taking 500mg of Quercetin a day may have a toxic effect? Since it is found in so many produce items, and has only benefits listed, would I be wise to proceed with caution? Perhaps then I would be in a special needs category. For example, I used to require allergy medication almost daily. It would seem to me that taking quercetin instead would be much safer.

I take quercitin when Vitamin C alone is not clearing up my problem. Once the worst part of my problem is overcome, I just stick to the Vitamin C. I only take quercitin when I need the extra help/boost.

Since my body doesn't actually require quercetin, I will see what happens if I skip taking it today, and take only my other vitamin. That sounds reasonable to take quercetin only when my symptoms are very bad. But what about during bad allergy time periods that can last for weeks? Would a daily use of quercetin be a bad idea in this scenerio?

On the whole, quercetin seems very safe, so the word "toxic" probably doesn't apply, but I'm just pointing out that unlike the vitamins - molecules required for life else we die, but now manufactured for us in the DNA of plants - quercetin is not a vitamin. We can live without it. If you can live better with it, then by all means, use it.
But if you get a gouty arthritis, you'll have to ask yourself if that is worth the benefit.

How much ground flaxseed would be considered too much? I usually put a spoonful into my oatmeal, daily.

I researched natural antihistamines for and discovered quercetin. Recently I hastily purchased a bottle of quercetin in plastic capsule form. I try to avoid ingesting plastic whenever possible. Just for the first dose, I popped the pill, along with my Vitamin C. I noticed that my allergies very mild (and right during prime allergy time for me). I decided, though, that it may be a good idea to open the capsule and pour the contents into water, thus avoiding ingestation of plastic; this I tried today. After just a few sips, I noticed a wave of sensations over most of my face. Since I was about to go out for the evening, I didn't want to have an unexpected reaction and decided not to finish the drinking the dose. Then, something curious happened: my plugged up right ear that has been giving my problems for a couple of years now suddenly started to pop open a little. The feeling was terrific! It did not fully clear up, but you have to remember that this was not a full dose. I also noticed that I could breath easier and my asthma was non-existent.
Since I have never experienced this effect before, so quickly, and all at once, I immediately conisidered that taking the quercetin dose orally in water had a much more powerful and sudden absorbtion into my body. I was somewhat concerned about the intensity of the effect, which cause me to not finish the dose, but I am very optimistic.
Try combining Quercetin with Vitamin C (ascorbic acid).
I have a website that is about using vitamin C + Quercetin against cancer:

Best Solution for Inflammation

inflammation can be unsightly and painful. I have gone through this in past.
I tried all kind of medicine but it didn't work on my body.
One of my friend suggested me to take natural ingredients like Bromelain AND Quercetin on regular basis. There are various supplier of this but I recommend to only use what my physician told me. I started to take 2 capsules everyday. Now my life is lots of easier without having any type of allergy.

I've found turmeric to have anti-inflammatory effects when I've used it.
