Understanding Allergy

In general, allergy symptoms are miserable. Some people suffer from different types of allergies; however, whether you are allergic to hay, pollens, molds, animal dander, or things that irritate your skin when you come in contact with them, the irritating symptoms are all quite common.
Most allergy symptoms (not including food allergies, which will be addressed later) include one or more of the following symptoms:

• Itchy throat, nose, eyes, and ears
• Watery eyes
• Runny or stuffy nose
• Tightness in chest
• Sneezing, coughing
• Fever

The good news is that your body is still working by giving you a runny nose, watery eyes, and generally making you miserable. As irritating as these symptoms are, they are mechanisms that are protecting your body from accepting what it believes to be a toxin. Helping your body get rid of these toxins is better than plugging them up with medications and having the toxins settle back into your tissues. Your body will need a little rest and some cleansing if you are experiencing any type of allergies. Fortunately, some herbal remedies can help alleviate some symptoms and boost your immune system, which can raise your tolerance level for new allergens. Let’s take a look at which ones!
