Treating Seasonal Allergies Naturally
As Spring rolls around, the sound in the air is expectedbirds chirping, leaves rustling and… ACCHOOO! Spring allergies are no joke and can make even a grown man cry. Most of us try to suffer through this season refusing to cave but eventually having to take seasonal allergy medicines and over-the-counter (OTC) options.
For those on the homeopathic or natural path, this may not be an option. As the majority of people start turning to natural wellness, the usual suspects of OTC drugs don't seem as appealing. And why not? Aside from the fact that they are synthetic drugs manufactured to deal with symptoms in your natural body, many other side symptoms can also arise from daily usage with the most common one being sleepiness. It's no surprise that many allergy medicines can make you a little tired but there are lesser-known side effects that can range from annoying to dangerous that buyers need to be aware of
1.Lower Sex Drive. If an antihistamine has a depressive effect, it can affect your sex drive.
2.Increased Appetite. Noticeable weight gain can occur with frequent usage of drugs as they can stimulate your appetite.
3.Anxiety Issues. If you feel a little amped up, check your allergy medicine. Pseudoephedrine might be the cause as this class of medication has an effect similar to drinking several cups of coffee.
Here are some natural wellness tips to get you through this allergy season and enjoying Spring.
1.Reflexology and Acupuncture. These are two ancient Chinese modalities used to treat allergy symptoms such as puffy eyes, runny noses and sneezing. A session or two should knock out those pesky symptoms.
2.Essential Oils. Essential oils are the end product of distillation of plants and flowers for their natural oils. They come from nature and are known to help reduce allergy symptoms. A blend of lavender, lemon and peppermint from a reputable essential oil company may do the trick.
3.Neti Pot. Using a neti pot helps to flush dust and pollen from the nasal canal. It looks like a little teapot with a long snout and you place warm water and a saline solution to pour into one nostril so it can stream out the other.
Don't suffer this Springtime. Get yourself well using these healthy tips and get outside the sun is shining.
