Are there any alternative medicines for allergies beside antihistamines?

Answer 1

I got one for you that has been the best thing for my allergies. It is called Xango. Check out the information below...

Answer 2

The herbal remedie for allergies is marshmallow and astragalus. These two herbs together do not act as an antihistamine but work on the cause of the allergies which is a defective overactive immune system. By correcting the immune system you get relief from symptoms by taking away the cause rather than just covering up symptoms untill next time. Astragalus strengthens and corrects the immune system while Marshmallow calms it. One capsule each - three times a day.

Answer 3

There are a number of remedies that can be used to help with allergies. The product that I have used for hay-fever/pollen is an herb called Stinging Nettle. The product can help also help those who might be anemic. When adding a new supplement or herb to your daily regimen, you should always consult your healthcare practitioner. Another thing that you might to consider, people who have constant allergies issues, might also trying a full body cleanse. The liver tends to overworked if you are dealing with allergies issues on a regular basis.You might also make sure that you are taking a high-quality multi-vitamin and the one that I use is called Intramax. People who suffer allergies should be a multi-vitamin that will boost the immune system.

Answer 4

TRADITIONAL HOME AND FOLK REMEDIES;
Eat local honey if you suffer from hay fever.
Honey and apple cider can be drunk to restore and prevent allergies.
Drink nettle tea to increase resistance - apply to skin for urticaria.

AROMATHERAPY;
A few drops Roman Chamomile in a vapourizer or on a light bulb to treat an allergic reaction, including asthma.
Melissa, in the bath or a vapourizer, soothes and a reduces a reaction's severity.
Lavender essential oil in a light carrier oil, can be massaged into the chest or other affected area to reduce spasm and generally boost immunity.

FLOWER ESSENCES;
When suffering an allergic reaction, take Rescue Remedy or Emergency Essence.

Do check with each therapy's practitioner for the correct dosage, etc.

Answer 5

Allergies are caused by an overactive immune system, and stress is the cause of this. So really you need to remove the cause of this stress or as we say dis - ease, try relaxation or meditation classes, healing is a very effective therapy just search the web for a list of healers near to you or for more information on healing and how it can help.
