Fight Spring Alergies With Natural Remedies

Most of us welcome Spring for its warmth and vitality after months of cold. But as you rejoice in the beauty of new growth and find yourself tempted to bury your nose in the garden’s abundance, you could be rewarded for your enthusiasm with sneezing, wheezing and congestion.

You have an allergy when your body overreacts to a wide array of things, known as allergens, that don’t cause problems for most people. Your body’s overreaction to these allergens is what causes those familiar and uncomfortable symptoms.

Allergens surround us each day. You could be allergic to your own vitamin supplements, your favorite food, your carpet or even another person. Dust, mold, animal (especially cats’) hair and dander, metals, cosmetics, and drugs can all set off a variety of allergic reactions. In Spring, the most common airbo
e allergens are tree and grass pollens, which cause “hay fever” for thousands of individuals.

Fortunately, several natural remedies are available to ease seasonal allergies. Here’s a brief list:nn- Goldenseal helps eliminate mucous.
- Echinacea and goldenseal root strengthen the immune system.
- Cayenne pepper can help counteract allergy symptoms and is particularly useful for treating asthma.
- Because imbalances of intestinal flora are common for people who have allergies, acidophilus can be useful in balancing the digestive tract.

Other helpful therapies include acupuncture, acupressure and homeopathy.

While all the treatments mentioned above may provide some relief, perhaps the most effective natural remedy available today is Nambudripad’s Allergy Elimination Technique (NAET). Many people have reported that this easy, non-invasive technique offers long-term, even permanent, allergy relief. For more information about NAET, call Harmony Inside & Out at (314) 995-1956.
