Phytochemicals for cancer prevention

I have read about the usage of phytochemicals (most notably Rutin;
quercetin rutinoside) for the prevention of cancer. There is research
conducted regarding the cancer preventive properties of these (plant
derived) chemicals. Search on keywords "quercetin cancer" or "rutin
cancer" on pubmed.com. Most notably, these chemicals are very cheap and
easy to obtain. This is why I use Rutin as chemopreventive strategy. I
am searching if there are people here with experience or knowledge
regerding the usage of these chemicals.

The problem is that pure quercetin should not get absorbed into the
system, but Rutin does get absorbed. Also it is very cheap, about 10
cent a pill (containing 500 mg of Rutin). ($0.10 dollar)

And oh yes I should warn you that you should always visit a doctor
before using supplements and always dose very carefully and monitor
your health very carefully and so on. And always start with very low
dose and test if you may be allergic or have adverse events.

And oh yes, I should tell you that onions contain quercetin too, but
you need to eat one entire union or more to get the quercetin amount
that is equal to 500 mg Rutin. The quercetin content of union is
different from Rutin and it is better absorbed.
