For many of us, allergy season can bring anxiety. Nobody wants their summer adventures interrupted by itchy, watery eyes, a running nose and wheezing. For many allergy sufferers, staying indoors and drowsy from over-the-counter antihistamines is a reality.
It doesn’t have to be this way! Nature offers herbal allies to combat allergies and reduce inflammation. No matter which allergy you’re triggered by, these herbs can bring support and relief. Incorporate them into your routine for an allergy-free summer.
Herbal Allies for Allergy Relief
Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum)
Reishi is a powerful medicinal mushroom for whole-body health. Known as the “Mushroom of Immortality,” Reishi has powerful immune-modulating and anti-inflammatory properties. This mighty mushroom can ease the inflammatory response caused by allergic reactions.
Skullcap (Scutellaria baicalensis)
Much like Reishi, Skullcap has a long history of use in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Historically, Skullcap has been recommended to soothe anxiety, stress and headaches. It soothes inflammation and can ease the discomfort and stress from allergen exposure.
Nettle (Urtica dioica):
Known for its painful sting, this spring green can be a miracle herb for allergy sufferers. Stinging Nettle is rich in anti-inflammatory properties and a natural antihistamine. It has a reputation of being used to combat hives, sore throat and breathing difficulties.
Eyebright (Euphrasia officinalis)
This herb lives up to its name! Eyebright has been historically used to relieve itchy, watery or sensitive eyes. Eyebright’s astringent action also helps to reduce mucus. This can soothe other allergy symptoms such as runny nose, wheezing and cough.
