 Spring is finally here, but it can be a very difficult time of year for hay fever sufferers. Hay fever or rhinitis, as it is also known, is due to a hypersensitivity to pollens in the air. The symptoms can be very debilitating for some people.  As the pollen count rises, the mucus membranes within the respiratory system become highly responsive and irritate, creating excess mucus production, itchy eyes, nasal drip and for some people skin irritations. The idea is to try and neutralize the histamine and inflammatory chemicals that are released within the body in response to exposure to these pollens.

We have a very large selection of products, including several which will help to combat allergies naturally. Naturally a supplement known as quercetin is highly recommended as a supportive supplement to help combat histamine release. It has been used very effectively and has been extremely successful in reducing the symptoms of hay fever.

The friendly and professional team at My Natural Health recommend to people that dairy is a mucus forming food type so avoiding it can be very useful when suffering a bout of hay fever.  Using barley grass can help to alkalinise the body to prevent further inflammatory processes occurring. Also, Vitamin D is very useful in assisting with upper respiratory immunity and mucous membrane health. 

Homeopathic remedies such as allermed from the Naturopharm range can be effective in quickly reducing the symptoms and very useful as a remedy for babies and children, which is a good thing to know when we have irritated children at this time of the year. Runny, itchy and sore eyes are often a major symptom of hay fever and we recommend using the Weleda range of Euphrasia eye drops which can be very soothing.

Horseradish and garlic combinations can often assist in clearing the nasal cavities to prevent sinus blockages and act as great decongestants, and keeping the nasal cavities douched with saline solution can help to remove the pollen and reduce the irritation to the mucous membranes and therefore reducing the sneezing fits and constant nasal drip.

We provide a huge range of natural remedies online at heavily discounted prices, offering great deals, very good shipping rates and bargain discounts. We offer a rewards scheme that rewards their customers for their purchases, and, over time, they will receive a discount coupon from MNH as a thank you for their loyalty.
