Rutin Capsules High Dose - 550 mg Rutin from 579 mg Sophora Japonica Extract | 180 Capsules

Rutin (rutoside) - the flavonoid from the Japanese pagoda tree

  • Rutin, also known as rutoside or quercetin-3-O-rutinoside, is a secondary plant compound from the flavonoid group (bioflavonoids). Chemically it consists of the flavonol quercetin and the disaccharide rutinose - historically it was also referred to as "vitamin P".
  • The richest natural source of rutin is the dried flower buds of the Japanese pagoda tree (Sophora japonica L., legume family, Fabaceae). Buckwheat, capers and citrus peel also contain rutin - but in considerably lower concentrations.
  • Rutin was first isolated in 1842 from common rue (Ruta graveolens), from which it takes its name. The Japanese pagoda tree has been cultivated in East Asia for centuries and is today the most important raw material source for rutin.

550 mg rutin from 579 mg extract - standardised instead of anonymous powder

  • Green Naturals Rutin Capsules contain 550 mg rutin from 579 mg Sophora japonica extract per capsule - equivalent to a standardisation of 95% rutin. By comparison, many manufacturers only declare an extract quantity without stating the actual rutin content.
  • The entire daily dose is contained in a single capsule - compared to many suppliers that require 2 to 3 capsules for a comparable amount or only offer rutin in low-dose combination products with 50 to 100 mg.
  • Rutin is scientifically well characterised: the absorption and metabolism of rutin in humans was investigated in a double-blind crossover study (Erlund et al., 2000), and a recent review describes how rutin is converted to quercetin in the gut by the microbiota (He et al., 2026).

Pure formula, 6-month supply - and honest transparency

  • Rutin is a plant compound (botanical): there are currently no authorised health claims for rutin under EFSA. We therefore deliberately refrain from making any claims about effects and focus on measurable quality - content, purity and laboratory testing.
  • The formula is a true mono preparation: Sophora japonica extract and a plant-based HPMC capsule shell - no rice flour, magnesium stearate, colourants or other excipients.
  • 180 vegan capsules per tub last for 180 days - a convenient 6-month supply with just 1 capsule a day.

  • Best time to take

    Take 1 capsule daily with plenty of water at a meal. The time of day can be chosen individually - what matters is regular daily intake.

What is rutin?

Rutin (also called rutoside or quercetin-3-O-rutinoside) is a secondary plant compound from the flavonoid group, more precisely the flavonol glycosides. It consists of the flavonol quercetin bound to the disaccharide rutinose. Rutin occurs in many plants and is particularly concentrated in the flower buds of the Japanese pagoda tree (Sophora japonica L.), from which the extract in Green Naturals® Rutin Capsules is also obtained. Rutin was formerly referred to as "vitamin P", but is no longer considered a vitamin today.

What kind of substance is rutin?

Chemically, rutin is a flavonoid glycoside with the molecular formula C27H30O16 - a yellowish-green powder that is poorly soluble in water. It belongs to the bioflavonoids, a subgroup of the polyphenols that plants produce, among other things, as protective compounds against UV radiation. After ingestion, rutin is split in the gut by the microbiota into its components quercetin and rutinose - this metabolic pathway has been described in review articles (He et al., 2026).

What is rutin good for?

Rutin is a plant compound (botanical) for which there are currently no authorised health claims under EFSA. We therefore may not and do not wish to make any claims about its effects. What we can say: rutin is one of the most thoroughly characterised flavonoids scientifically - its absorption and metabolism in humans has been investigated in studies (Erlund et al., 2000). Green Naturals® Rutin provides 550 mg rutin from 579 mg Sophora japonica extract per capsule in standardised, lab-tested quality.

Which foods contain rutin?

Rutin is found in many foods: buckwheat (especially in the leaves and flowers), capers, asparagus, apples, figs and the peel of citrus fruits. By far the highest concentration, however, is found in the dried flower buds of the Japanese pagoda tree (Sophora japonica L.), which can contain up to 20% rutin. This is why Sophora japonica is the standard raw material for high-dose rutin capsules - including at Green Naturals®.

What is Sophora japonica extract?

Sophora japonica extract is obtained from the dried flower buds of the Japanese pagoda tree (Sophora japonica L., also Styphnolobium japonicum), a tree from the legume family. The flower buds are among the most rutin-rich plant parts and are traditionally used in East Asia (He et al., 2016). In Green Naturals® Rutin the extract is standardised to 95% rutin: 579 mg of extract provide 550 mg of pure rutin per capsule - so the rutin content is precisely declared rather than just the extract quantity.

What is the dosage of the rutin capsules?

1 capsule daily = 579 mg Sophora japonica extract with 550 mg rutin. This means the entire daily dose is contained in a single capsule - you do not need to spread your intake over the day. Take the capsule with plenty of liquid at a meal and do not exceed the recommended daily dose. The tub of 180 capsules lasts for 6 months.

How much rutin per day is sensible?

There is no official intake recommendation or nutrient reference value (NRV) for rutin, as it is not an essential nutrient. On the market, daily amounts range from 50 mg in combination products to 500 mg and more in mono preparations. Green Naturals® Rutin provides 550 mg rutin from 579 mg Sophora japonica extract per capsule - a high daily amount covered by a single capsule. Stick to the recommended intake of 1 capsule daily.

Does rutin have side effects?

Rutin is a component of many everyday foods and is generally well tolerated at the recommended dosage. Please observe the label: the product is intended for adults only and must not be taken by pregnant women, breastfeeding women or children. The recommended daily dose must not be exceeded. If you take medication regularly, discuss intake with your doctor or pharmacist to be on the safe side.

Is the product suitable for pregnant women?

No. Green Naturals® Rutin must not be taken by pregnant or breastfeeding women or by children - as stated on the label. The product is intended for adults only and should be kept out of the reach of young children. Please store the tub in a cool, dry place away from light. Food supplements are not a substitute for a balanced, varied diet and a healthy lifestyle.

Can the capsules be opened?

Yes. The vegan HPMC capsule can easily be opened; the contents can be stirred into water, juice or yoghurt, for example. Please note that pure rutin is a slightly bitter, yellowish-green powder that dissolves poorly in water. The easiest way is therefore to take the capsule whole with plenty of liquid at a meal.

Is the product completely natural?

Yes. Green Naturals® Rutin Capsules contain only Sophora japonica extract from genuine flower buds and a plant-based HPMC capsule shell - nothing else. We completely avoid rice flour, magnesium stearate, colourants, preservatives and flavourings. The product is vegan, gluten-free, lactose-free and is filled and lab-tested in Germany.

What is the difference between rutin and quercetin?

Quercetin is the flavonol that forms the core of the rutin molecule; rutin is quercetin with an attached disaccharide (rutinose) - i.e. the glycosidic form. The two substances are closely related but not identical: rutin is only split into quercetin in the gut by the microbiota, which according to studies leads to delayed absorption compared to pure quercetin (Erlund et al., 2000). Anyone wishing to supplement rutin specifically therefore chooses a high-dose rutin mono preparation such as Green Naturals® Rutin.

Are the rutin capsules available in pharmacies?

In Germany, Green Naturals® Rutin is available under pharmacy number PZN 18133138 from your online pharmacy or local pharmacy. Outside Germany, order the capsules directly here in the shop or from selected online pharmacies - every batch is independently lab-tested and filled in Germany. With 180 capsules per tub you are supplied for 6 months.
