Adopting a healthy lifestyle and good diet and exercise habits can go a long way in keeping your heart and other organs, hair, skin and even your mind fresh and active.

It is also anti-hyperlipidemic, anti-inflammatory and it has neurotrophic properties (promotes the growth of nervous tissue). According to Laboratory Equipment, fisetin reduces the burden of damaged cells, and extends lifespan and improves health. Here are some natural sources of fisetin:

Strawberries: These have the highest concentration of fisetin. Strawberries are packed with compounds that fight oxidative stress and inflammation and thus help prevent heart disease. Flavonoids called anthocyanins and antioxidants present in strawberries also help prevent the build-up of bad cholesterol that can block your arteries. The Vitamin C content helps us the immunity. Fisetin in strawberries helps enhance memory by stimulating the signalling pathways and according to a research published in Annals of Neurology, eating 2 or more servings of strawberries per week can delay memory decline in ageing women.

Cucumbers contain a group of phytonutrients called lignans which have been linked to a lowered risk of cancer. Additionally, the many antioxidants along with Vitamin C, improve your immunity and reduces free radical damage which in turn helps prevent cancer. a compound called sterols can help reduce cholesterol levels.

Some other sources of fisetin include apples, persimmons, grapes and onions.
