Don’t Sneeze At Summer Allergies

Posted on July 28, 2009 | Filed Under Allergies, Articles

If you bite into the farm-fresh peach and suddenly your eyes begin to water and your nose starts to run; or, stopping to smell the roses results in a sneezing fit, then you’ve got Summer Allergies! Whatever the trigger is, summer allergies are a nuisance at best, but for some, allergies can even ruin this coveted time of year.

But taking allergy medication can result in unpleasanr side effects such as drowsiness, heart palpitations, nervousness, irritability, thirst and insomnia. If the allergies don’t ruin your summer, the medication might.

However, there are natural alterntives that clear up the symptoms of summer allergies without the side effects of allergy medications.

Keep HistaBlock herbal allergy formula on hand during summer months to relieve allergic symptoms. The formula contains a blend of herbs and nutrients to control allergic and inflammatory reactions to allergens. Stinging Nettle provides support against allergic rhinitis in hay fever sufferers. Quercetin, a bioflavonoid, reduces the release of histamine to effectively reduce allergy symptoms. This formula also provides antioxidant support to help keep nasal passages open. Bromelain works as an anti-inflammatory to help reduce the swelling of mucous membranes. Butter orange helps the body’s natural decongestant processes to open up the aieways and reduce runny nose and watery eyes. Histablock #776-1
