A Naturopathic Approach to Evaluation Management of Seasonal Allergies with Corrie Marinaro, ND
According to the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America, 26% (67 million) of adults and 19% (14 million) of children have ben diagnosed with seasonal allergy symptoms that require management. Common tools for management of allergies include histamine blockers as well steroids and other immunosuppressants. Though these tools can be helpful in acute situations, understanding the "why?" behind seasonal allergies opens up new potential to address underlying causes of the immune system's over-reactivity.
In this lecture, Dr. Marinaro will discuss common irritants to the immune system that create "histamine dominance" leading to seasonal allergies as well as strategies for addressing these under care of a qualified practitioner. She will also review the role of low-histamine nutrition and food allergy testing as therapeutic strategies for a histamine-dominant immune system. Lastly, she will discuss common histamine-management herbs and nutrients that can be used in combination with or in place of pharmaceutical histamine blockers.
