    Fisetin

    Varies
    Varies

    Fisetin is a naturally occurring flavonoid polyphenol found in high concentrations in strawberries, with smaller amounts in apples, persimmons, onions, and grapes. It has gained attention in longevity research for its potential senolytic properties — the ability to selectively clear senescent (damaged, non-dividing) cells that accumulate with aging. While preclinical studies are promising, human clinical evidence remains early-stage.

    “I also used to take NMN, quercetin, and fisetin, all of which I've stopped because the current research suggests that there's no added benefit beyond a placebo.”

    Safety & Cautions

    Side Effects

    • Mild gastrointestinal discomfort
    • Nausea at higher doses
    • Possible diarrhea
    Fisetin is generally well-tolerated at typical supplement doses, though long-term safety data in humans is limited. Those on blood-thinning medications or undergoing cancer treatment should consult a physician, as fisetin may interact with certain drug-metabolizing enzymes.
