It 's also present in medicinal botanicals which include Ginkgo biloba and Hypericum perforatum (St. John 's wort). Quercetin is recognized among the key components of the medicinal activity of these plants and has been shown in experimental studies to have numerous effects on the body. All flavonoids have the same basic chemical structure: A three-ringed molecule with hydroxyl (OH) groups attached. Many variations can occur, giving rise to a large and diverse range of flavonoids.
