Relieve Allergy Symptoms With This One Natural Ingredient

How do you relieve allergy symptoms the natural way? When allergies sore, it’s usually due to the high amounts of dust and pollen in the air.

Have you ever experienced itchy and watery eyes, a stuffy nose, and itchy skin it may be from petting your friend’s dog or cat, or simply going for a walk outside. Some people have it worse than others, and it can start to affect our lives and how we function.

No one wants to feel “sick” when they’re really not, especially during the warmer months. Over-the-counter allergy medication can be expensive. And they usually contain antihistamine, a drug which may not be safe to take during pregnancy. Dangerous side effects can impair one’s driving abilities and cause a mental disconnect.

Side affects include:
  • Dry mouth
  • Drowsiness
  • Confusion
  • Nausea and vomiting
  • Restlessness
  • Dizziness
  • Blurred vision

Relieve Allergy Symptoms With This One Natural Ingredient

 

I’ve done a little bit of research on natural allergy remedies because I suffer from pet and dust allergies. I found a natural ingredient one that is inexpensive, and quite obvious. You can find it at any grocery market and it’s so easy to incorporate in everyday meals.

I notice a difference right away after consuming. It reduces mucus and boosts your metabolism to help your body function at it’s best. Apparently, this natural allergy relief is just as affective as over-the-counter antihistamine medications.

It’s Apple Cider Vinegar.

Here are the allergy symptoms that apple cider vinegar prevents:
  • Sneezing
  • Itchy, red, swollen or watery eyes
  • Itchy nose, ears, lips, mouth, or throat
  • Nasal congestion
  • Asthma
  • Cough
  • Headache
  • Nosebleed

The vinegar can dramatically decrease allergy symptoms that you may have incurred from food, pets, and other environmental sources. Apple cider vinegar is not just for allergy relief – it has super healing powers for everyday illnesses.

Here’s a list of health conditions that are treatable with apple cider vinegar:
  • Sore throat
  • Sinus Infections
  • Flu
  • Acid Reflux
  • Chronic Fatigue
  • Arthritis
  • Acne
  • High Cholesterol
  • Candida
  • Gout
  • Contact Dermatitis
Here’s my recommendation as to how to incorporate this natural ingredient into your daily intake:
  1. Take a shot of it! One teaspoon is recommended to get started. Drink water right after because of it’s strong taste.
  2. You can add one teaspoon of the vinegar to 1/2 a litre of water and drink three times a day.
  3. Up your dose to two tablespoons mixed with water before each meal.
  4. Add it to a glass of apple juice.
  5. Add it to your favourite tea.
  6. Use honey in your drink to mask the strong taste.
  7. Not a fan of the taste? Inhale it’s fumes to open up your nasal passages, rid mucus production, and curb allergic reactions.

    Hi!
    This is a really great and insightful article, thanks a lot for sharing. I think sometimes we rely too much on medicines to help alleviate different symptoms we may be feeing. It’s good to know of other ways.
    Thanks!

      That’s right. Why use man-made medicinal products that have harmful side effects? We have natural healing agents readily available to us literally everywhere and they are affordable, with limitless benefits. It’s mind-blowing how much money these pharmasuetical companies make.

    Great info. I already red about acv doing great for various things but this first time I read about its benefits for allergies.
    Do you drink it every day? If so for how long.

    • northsouthblonde says

      June 9, 2016 at 1:15 pm

      My allergies spike when I’m visiting anyone who owns a dog or a cat. Then I will make sure I take 1-2 tablespoons of it with every meal.

    Hi Northsouthblonde, thanks for sharing this article. I get terrible hay fever every summer and I usually take a concotion of over the counter drugs to relieve the symptoms. I’ll give apple cider vinegar a go!

      It can get unbearable! I would use Claritin but it is costly. When I started this method, it took a while to kick in, but it did clear up my symptoms by continually taking it a few times a day. Let me know how well it works for you.

Life lately 🤍 It seems as though the years have Life lately 🤍 It seems as though the years have gone by and the girls have changed so much, so very different in their own unique way, growing and blossoming faster than ever. All I had to do was blink and all of a sudden I have a 9 year old wiser than her years, an 8 year old who says it like it is, and an almost 2 year old who doesn’t miss a beat. 

“Let me love you a little more before you’re not little anymore.” This couldn’t be a more truer feeling for us moms raising older children.

I will never stop loving you. A mother gives and gives, loves and loves with no cap, no end, no limit. When life gets tough, always know that I will forever be here for you, loving you and supporting you every step of the way.

Cold and flu season is here! Here are 5 Reasons Wh Cold and flu season is here! Here are 5 Reasons Why You Need a Honeywell True HEPA Air Purifier in Your Home 💨

1. Indoor air can be more polluted than outdoor air with allergens trapped inside. Using an air purifier can help ensure the air inside our homes is fresher and cleaner!

2. It helps reduce airborne allergens like dust mite debris in the bedroom and pet dander. This can help reduce a variety of symptoms you may be having.

3. Helps reduce odours (mom win for any lingering dirty diapers sitting in the trash) keeping air smelling fresher.

4. Set the timer and forget it! This is my favourite feature because I’m just so busy and would forget to shut it off when not needed.

5. Cleaner air, feel better, live better, sleep better. Need I say more?!
