Have you noticed an increase in pollen lately?

With spring upon us, you may notice an increase in pollen on trees, cars and even clothing.

For many years when spring allergy symptoms started acting up I would take a traditional OTC approach for relief. Often those approaches would provide needed relief, but sometimes they would come with unpleasant side effects such as drowsiness, headaches, muscle aches and sleepiness.

Thankfully around 7 to ten years ago a friend shared his experience with a natural product that contained a potent form of grape seed extract and vitamin C for allergy symptom relief.

After learning about this approach, I decided to try it out myself, and had a very similar experience to my friend. After taking the vitamin c and grape seed extract product I noticed a difference in how I felt shortly after taking it and thankfully didn't feel the side effects that I did with traditional approaches. Many people who I have recommended it to have had similar experiences

Some tips for supporting your health in the fall and winter months.

After a long and hot summer, the fall season and cooler weather is upon us again. With the fall season comes wonderful fall foliage, pumpkins, football, shorter days and sometimes allergy season.

As the seasons change, our bodies have to adapt to the changing of the environment such as less Vitamin D as the sun goes down earlier. According to a national bureau of economic research study the researchers found that when a state receives more sunlight than normal in a typical month, the state tends to experience less influenza than normal.

While we may not always be able to control the amount of sun exposure we get, regular supplementation with Vitamin D may be advantageous. Vitamin D plays an important role in immune system health. There are vitamin D receptors that work by reducing levels of inflammatory proteins called cytokines. A British investigation published in 2017 concluded that taking Vitamin D supplements may help protect against colds, flu, bronchitis, and pneumonia. Researchers from Queen Mary University of London looked at data from 25 clinical trials that involved 11,000 patients from 14 countries and noticed a significant benefit.

Overall, the study found that the people who had the lowest Vitamin D levels and then took a Vitamin D supplement had half the incidence of colds, flu, and other respiratory infections than those with low vitamin D levels who took no supplement. There are varying opinions about what the optimal Vitamin D Level is, but most scientists and wellness professionals such as Dr Christiane Northrup state that the optimum level is between 50-100 ng/ml (4).

As with all time's of the year and especially when their are increased concerns for viruses and bacteria, it's always important to eat whole nutrient dense foods such as fruits, vegetables, healthy nuts and so forth while staying away from processed and sugar rich foods. Nutrient dense foods provide important vitamins and minerals that the body needs to support health. Whereas sugar rich and processed foods may cause inflammation in the body and deplete immune system function.

Additional nutrient support can be beneficial with Vitamin C and immune supporting mushrooms.
