Allergy season is coming! 🤧
Tree pollen will be flying around soon. The pollen is in the air before we even see leaves on the trees!
What can you do to help yourself?
• Eating foods like blueberries, apples, grapes, onions, broccoli, asparagus, and capers that have natural quercetin. Quercetin helps stabilize mast cells that release histamine and acts as a natural antihistamine.
•Citrus fruits and berries high in Vitamin C are helpful as Vitamin C is a natural antihistamine.
• Ginger and turmeric are anti inflammatory, which helps reduce histamine levels.
• Parsley, mint, oregano, and thyme contain Luteolin, another natural antihistamine.
• Pineapple contains bromelain, which reduces inflammation.
• Local honey may help desensitize the body to local pollen.
Supplements that can be helpful:
• Quercetin, which is a mast cell stabilizer and acts as a natural antihistamine.
• Turmeric, which is in curcumin, lowers inflammation, which helps decrease the histamine response, and helps with the absorption of quercetin when combined together.
• Bromelain, which helps reduce inflammation and is often combined with quercetin (Thorne’s quercetin complex has this in it).
• Vitamin C is a natural antihistamine,
