Three Go-To Allergy Remedies that I use


The vibrant blossoming trees and flowers of spring can be a welcome sign of great weather on its way but also spell trouble for the nearly 40 million Americans with seasonal allergy symptoms like itching eyes, sneezing, headaches, postnasal drip and sinus congestion. If you are among the allergy sufferers, grab a mug of green tea with local honey (which has an anti-histamine and immune building effect) and try one of my top three allergy remedies*




Natural D-Hist capsules for a non-drowsy way to reduce allergy symptoms.
This all natural formula contains quercetin, stinging nettle leaf, bromelain and N-acetyl cysteine to reduce sneezing, congestion, headache and post nasal drip caused by allergies. Quercetin promotes sinus health and has been proven in animal studies to have anti-allergic and anti-asthma properties. Stinging nettle leaf reduces inflammation and has been clinically proven better than placebo to relieve allergy symptoms. Bromelain reduces inflammation and N-acetyl cysteine works as a decongestant.
D-HistJunior is a chewable version for children that I also recommend.

Are dry, itching eyes your main allergy problem? I recommend Similisan brand Allergy Eye Relief homeopathic eyedrops to my patients to naturally moisten dry, irritated, red and itching eyes. They work quickly and you can use them while wearing contact lenses. You can find these drops in most drug stores and grocery stores.

Persistent sinus pressure, congestion and headaches more your thing? To quickly clear congestion and relieve sinus pressure caused by the common cold or allergies, I recommend HerbalGem brand Sinugem remedy to drain the sinuses, reduce inflammation, and strengthen the immune system. This concentrated herbal remedy is also great if you do not like swallowing large pills because it is in liquid form.
