Allergies could come anytime and anywhere and it could be caused by anything resulting to mild or severe complications. Your allergy might require the attention of a doctor or other health care professionals but there are which could be alleviated using some home remedies.
Some allergies that are milder can be relieved without spending much. These at-home tips and remedies could help ease your symptoms.
1. Apple Cider Vinegar
Though it is an old remedy. It has been proven to reduce mucous production and cleanse the lymphatic system. (Mixed into water)
2. Neti Pot and Saline Rinse
The basic theory is that you use a Neti Pot filled with a sterile saline solution to flush out the sinuses of allergens and irritations.
Either use a pre-made saline rinse or make your own by dissolving 1 teaspoon of himalayan or sea salt in a quart of boiled distilled water. Cool completely and put in the Neti Pot. Pour through one nostril and let it drain out the other.
3. Quercetin
Quercetin is a natural bioflavonoid that is said to help stabilize mast cells to keep them from releasing histamine. As with any herb, you should check with your doctor before using, especially if you have a liver problem, are pregnant, or are on hormonal contraceptives.
4. Nettle Leaf
Nettle leaf is another natural antihistamine that can be very effective as it naturally blocks the body’s ability to produce histamine. It grows in many places and can be made in to a tincture or tea, but for allergy relief, capsules made from dried nettle leaves are the easiest and most effective option.
5. Local Honey
The theory is that consuming local honey from where you live will help your body adapt to the allergens in the environment there. This is supposed to work like a natural allergy “shot” and doesn’t seem to have a downside. Consume a teaspoon or more of raw, unprocessed local honey from as close to where you actually live as possible. Do this one or more times a day to help relieve symptoms. It is often suggested to start this a month or so before allergy season.
6. Diet Changes
Everything falls to what you eat. If all else fails, sometimes dietary changes can be the answer to allergy problems especially resisting all the foods that are reason for your allergies.
