Allergy Season is Almost Here!

The good news is that winter is almost over.  The bad news is that as a result of a very hard and snowy winter, allergists predict this Spring will be especially difficult for pollen-induced symptom sufferers.

What are some of the things that can help alleviate the nasty symptoms?

1.  Buying a room (or whole house) filtration system that contains a HEPA filter and, make certain to clean it, frequently.

2.  If you have a basement that is unfinished, attempt to keep the humidity down below 50%, as anything higher than that encourages mold and mildew growth.  You can buy a hygrometer to test humidity levels.

3.  Wash your hair after you come home from work or being outside all day.  Going to bed with freshly washed hair gets rid of the day's accumulated irritants and pollen...the same thing goes for the timing of your shower or bath.

4.  Understand that a balanced gastrointestinal tract is vital for a healthy immune system.  Inflammatory changes in the gut can be responsible for many of the allergies/adverse reactions from which people suffer.  It's important to be taking the correct formulations that will help re-balance the immune system, including the gut, adrenals, spleen and thymus. 

It's very likely that if allergy sufferers follow the above guidelines, they'll be able to enjoy all the lovely flowers and flowering trees this year.
