Hello allergy sufferers, welcome to the fall allergy season. But don’t stress, help is here. There are natural remedies that can reduce symptoms and improve how your immune system (link to Immune Renew) resists seasonal allergy attacks.
Hay fever is a term for both seasonal and perennial rhinitis. It is the most common immune system disorder in the U.S. and affects approximately 35 million Americans. In the fall Ragweed pollen is the most common in triggering allergies, but other triggers include dust mites, cockroaches, fungi, mold spores, and pet dander.
You may be all too aware of the symptoms which include a runny nose, watery and itchy eyes, sneezing and coughing. These symptoms can be treated with antihistamines or other medicine, but that can get expensive and some have side effects.
So here are a few natural remedies to try and see which work for you. Caution: Always check with your doctor before starting or stopping any medications or supplements.
Garlic: Chemical compounds in garlic thin mucus and helps to reduce sneezing,
congestion and other symptoms.
To use: finely mince a clove of raw garlic and add it to water, applesauce or orange juice and consume. The aroma and strong flavor of this pungent herb will help to clear nasal congestion. Make sure you have food in the stomach before ingesting raw garlic or nausea may ensue.
Pure Lavender Oil: Lavender is great to use as aromatherapy to relieve congestion and other allergy symptoms. The scent filled molecules act as natural antihistamines and help to reduce inflammation and congestion in the nasal passages.
To use: Put one or two drops of pure lavender oil on a handkerchief or towel. Take a deep sniff every few minutes when you have an allergy flare-up. For added relief, add pure lavender oil to a hot bath and soak. Not only will this help to open the nasal passages, but will help in reducing stress and act as a natural sleep aid.
Fish Oil and Omega-3’s: Omega-3 fatty acids in fish oil have been shown to reduce inflammation throughout the body. It can alleviate allergy symptoms by reducing inflammation and swelling in the nasal passages.
To use: Take a minimum of 1,000 mg daily. It should contain at least 500 mg of EPA and 250 mg of DHA per capsule. Make sure you check with your doctor, especially if taking blood-thinning medication such as warfarin. Using both together could increase the risk of bleeding.
