Seasonal Allergies

4/8/2022

0 Comments

 
April showers bring May's flowers and with that pollen. If you live in the southern part of the United States you'll experience pollen season earlier in the spring.  Are you suffering from an itchy scratchy throat and eyes? Is your nose all stuffy?

When we experience the symptoms of seasonal allergies our bodies are showing us it is inflamed.  Ways you can decrease the inflammation is to shower when you get home after being outside. Rinsing your nose with a neti pot.  Slowly crowd out the bad process foods by eating healthy whole foods such as fruits, vegetables and proteins. Reach for complex carbohydrates versus the simple ones like bread, baked goods, soft drinks, and dairy products.

Even when you are treating your body right by eating whole foods and drinking plenty of water you can still experience the symptoms of seasonal allergies. 
Instead of reaching for an anti-histamine consider reaching for a supplement that diminishes the release of histamine without drying out your mucus membranes. 
Options you can choose from are: 
  • Quercetin comes from the apples, onions, teas, berries and brassicas family of vegetables. Quercetin helps decreases the release of histamines in the body. 
  • Perilla extract comes from an aromatic, sweet-tasting plant used as a culinary ingredient in many Asian countries. A key active ingredient in perilla is rosmarinic acid which may help sooth the allergy symptoms.
