Natural Allergy Treatments


Seasonal allergies making you miserable? Allergies occur when your immune system over-reacts to substances such as pollen, pet dander, mold, dust mites, foods (e.g., wheat, peanut, milk), latex, and drugs. Asthma, Hay fever, allergic rhinitis, chronic sinusitis or atopic rhinitis are all related to allergies. There are many time tested herbal treatments that may bring you some relief.

The active chemical components of ephedra, or ma huang, the alkaloids ephedrine and pseudo ephedrine, are found in over the counter allergy and cold medications as over-the-counter decongestants.
