JANUARY 28, 2025 A ENVIRONMENTAL ALLERGIES

An allergic reaction is a difficult thing to deal with, from simple symptoms like a runny nose to more intense reactions such as hives. Some people treat their allergies with allergy pills or allergy shots Today there is subingual immunotherapy (SLIT) Ir has been around for a long time but not many health care practitioners use this method. Based on Ig E blood tests, sublingual can be made to the allergen As many as 20 + different allergens can be placed in one bottle.

The best natural remedy is to completely avoid the allergen. If you know what you are allergic to, whether that’s dust, pollen, or animal dander, you should avoid that allergen. This seems easier than said A lot of time there is a runny and stuffiness. Try a Neti Pot You can make a neti pot wash with a 3:1 mix of iodide-free salt and baking soda. You can make a large batch of this and store it in an airtight container. To make the wash, mix one teaspoon of the mixture with eight ounces of lukewarm water that is either boiled and cooled, distilled, or bottled.

There are two supplements that I like. These two anti-inflammatory allergy treatments act as a natural antihistamine to reduce intense allergic reactions.  Quercetin helps to balance and control your histamine levels. You can take it as a  supplement. You can also eat it several times a day through apples, red wine, teas, and onions Butterbur is an extract, also known as Ze 339, that reduces the histamines in your blood.

The one herb I use is Stinging Nettle Leaf . t is coming with Quercetin in a product called Natural D Hist. I also regular tell the patient to take Natural Raw Honey from the area which does help with allergic symptoms.

Yes you should always vacuum regularly, and et an appropriate air filter but you should also consider integrative approaches to environmental allergies

Until tomorrow…
