[AlternativeAnswers] Herbal Remedies for Allergies

Good Morning!

Herbal Remedies for Allergies

Why people develop allergies remains a mystery in the medical community. Until we know more about allergies, the best line of defense is to eliminate the offending agents. Sneezing, runny nose, watery eyes, sinus congestion, hives, swelling are all symptoms of allergies.

Allergies can affect almost any area of the body. Substances that irritate the skin, allergic reactions to drugs, detergents, and other chemicals are all culprits. Also, grass, cow products, house dust, pets, wheat, colorants, additives and preservatives are all possibilities. Here are some of my favorite herbal remedies!

Herbal Remedies

Herbs that are beneficial for allergies (if you are not allergic to them) are Burdock Root, Dandelion, and Echinacea. These herbs help to purify the blood, boost the immune system and improves organ function. Bee Pollen can strengthen the immune system. Start with a few drops at a time and work up to a dropper 2-3 times a day. Coenzyme Q10 improves oxygenation and immunity. 30 mgs, twice daily. In traditional medicine, some herbs whose pollen can cause symptoms of hay fever have been used as a way to reduce symptoms of hay fever, which is the homeopathic theory of "like cures like". The most important of these are Goldenrod and Ragweed (Ambrosia ambrosioides). Eyebright and Elder also have a reputation for use as hay fever remedies. However, an individual allergic to one of these plants should avoid them unless under the care of a doctor of natural medicine.

Bee Pollen - has been used to build up the immune system to to fight colds and to counteract depression. Bee pollen has also been used internally to increase antiallergenic properties to enhance the immune system against allergies to pollen.

Burdock Root - Burdock root contains high amounts of inulin and mucilage. This may explain its soothing effects on the gastrointestinal tract. Bitter constituents in the root may also explain the traditional use of burdock to improve digestion. It also contains polyacetylenes that have been shown to have antimicrobial activity.

Dandelion - Dandelion is a natural diuretic that increases urine production by promoting the excretion of salts and water from the kidney. Dandelion may be used for a wide range of conditions requiring mild diuretic treatment such as poor digestion, liver disorders, and high blood pressure.

Echinacea - Echinacea is another herb useful for the relief of allergy symptoms. With a rich history of use in Native American traditions, echinacea possesses natural anti-inflammatory properties. Echinacea also helps relieve the symptoms of upper respiratory tract infections and is useful for sore throats and even acne.

Green drinks - green drinks are filled with antioxidants and other nutrients, which help to detox the body. Detoxification can calm allergy symptoms by helping to flush out toxic build up in the system. Made from spirulina, wheat and barley grasses, these drinks are one of the best allergy medicines.

Nettle Leaf - Nettle leaf can help in the reduction in symptoms of hay fever, including sneezing and itchy eyes. For help with hay fever symptoms, consider taking 450 mg of Nettle Leaf capsules or tablets two to three times per day, or a 2–4 ml tincture, three times per day. Do not take this herb if you have high blood pressure.

Horseradish - The "heating" qualities of horseradish are a clue to its most popular therapeutic use: clearing up nasal and chest congestion. As well as helping to clear the respiratory passages and eliminate excess mucus, this herb is effective for the relief of cough symptoms and sinusitis.

Garlic - One of the oldest recorded culinary spices, garlic (Allium sativum) is mentioned as a food in the Bible, and is known to have been part of the diet of Egyptian workers as long ago as 2600 BC. It is the dominant flavour in much of Mediterranean cuisine, but is also a more subtle addition to many Asian dishes. But alongside its popularity in food, garlic has a long history of medicinal use – a traditional history that has gained increasing recognition from science. Garlic preparations have long been used to relieve the congestion of colds and hayfever.

Reishi Mushrooms, Ganoderma lucidum, (Ling Zhi) is documented to have great medicinal value. The reishi extract has been shown to be effective in clearing up a large variety of skin allergic conditions either due to food or airborne allergens. Ganoderma extract has been found to be useful in detoxifying the kidneys and improving its overall function.

Surgery is a complete waste of time. The problem is located as you say at
5/6.Have you considered Yoga. Or remedial Yoga that could help. Cheaper by far
and safer.David,

Acrodermatitis chronica atrophicans: late

manifestation of Lyme borreliosis.

Ned Tijdschr Geneeskd. 2010;154(30):A2012.

[Acrodermatitis chronica atrophicans: late manifestation of Lyme

borreliosis.]

[Article in Dutch]

Krol CG, van der Geer S, Thio HB, Janssen MJ, Jonkers GP.

Rijnland ziekenhuis, Leiderdorp.

A 71-year-old man was referred to our outpatient clinic because

of arthralgia and swelling of his right hand. He also showed a

subcutaneous nodule on his left knee. A second patient, a

57-year-old woman, was referred because of painful skin of her

legs. Dermatologic examination revealed erythemateous livid

discoloration on both feet and legs. There were reticular

varices, corona flebectatia paraplantaris medialis and minimal

pitting oedema. Serology tested positive in both patients for

Borrelia and they both recalled tick bites. A third patient, a

73-year-old woman, was referred because of erythema and maculae

located at her lower legs and positive Borrelia serology.

Pathologic examination was typical for acrodermatitis chronica

atrophicans, a late skin manifestation of Lyme borreliosis. In

all patients, symptoms improved after treatment with doxycycline

for four weeks. A lack of familiarity with this skin condition

may lead to unnecessary vascular investigations and considerable

delay in adequate treatment.
