Smart Nutritional Choices Help to Fend Off Environmental Allergy Symptoms

When you think of "allergies," you most likely associate the word "allergies" with spring flowers. Fact is the season of "fall" is one of the highest allergy seasons of the year. Common allergy symptoms include:

  • runny nose
  • watery or itchy eyes
  • sneezing
  • coughing
Medication from your doctor and lessening exposure to allergens is usually the first line of defense we all pursue. It was for me. I suffered with what my doctor called "seasonal allergies" off and on all year long, but yes, it was worse in spring and fall. I took expensive prescription medication that eventually gave me such a fast heart beat I had to be taken off the medication. I found greatest relief from local raw honey.



Other ways people try to relief their allergies are:
  • replacing air filters
  • using air cleaners
  • using facial masks while raking leaves or cutting grass
As for nutritional choices, start with local raw honey. To date, science has found NO FOODS to fight allergy symptoms explicitly with the "possible exception of raw honey." I am here to tell you raw honey has worked for me and I am so PLEASED. I suffered with allergies a lot.

If you consume local raw honey in tiny doses (local raw honey is best due to your area's unique pollen), you will over time experience more relief from allergy symptoms year round. Raw honey works somewhat like an immunization. Giving your body small doses on a daily basis might help your body experience less of an allergic reaction when you encounter the allergen. Of course, there are exceptions to this rule. 

Not everybody will respond favorably even to small doses of raw honey daily. Raw honey will not provide immediate relief, however, these small doses daily may over time help reduce your allergy symptoms. This has been exactly the case for me. When I first started the raw honey warm drinks (one tsp. of raw honey per one cup of warm water flavored either naturally with fresh lemon juice or some other no calorie, no sodium water flavor enhancer), I had horrible bouts of coughing, nose and throat congestion, and sometimes progressed to bronchitis. I have been drinking these drinks now faithfully 3 times per day and sometimes 2 times per day with a great improvement in allergy symptoms, I mean it feels as if I am "healed" of allergies. I take no more expensive allergy medicine.

Some foods can work as antihistamines that may help relieve allergy symptoms for some people. The key ingredient, "quercetin" found in many fruits and vegetables is known for its anti-inflammatory effects. Best sources of quercetin are:

  • apples
  • berries
  • cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, turnips/turnip greens, collard greens, kale and bok choy
  • capers
  • grapes
  • onions
  • shallots
  • tea
  • tomatoes
  • beer
  • red wine
The same is true for the above foods. There will be no immediate effect. Eating these foods on a regular basis may over the long term provide some people with allergy symptom relief.

Best practices year round include:
  • include anti-inflammatory foods such as teas, leafy greens, onions, shallot and fruits in your diet
  • protect yourself from overexposure to pollen as much as possible
  • try some raw honey warm drinks daily 
  • avoid types of fresh produce that may exacerbate seasonal allergies
  • include the recommended daily intake of five helpings of fruit and vegetables a day

Another convenient and low calorie way to get more fruits and vegetables in your daily diet is to use the Life's Abundance Greens Blend Supplement:

 Greens Blend

  • Non GMO
  • Vegan
  • Gluten free
  • Soy free
  • Dairy free
  • Naturally flavored
  • No added sugar

Our Greens Blend nourishes your body with a blend of raw, certified-organic grasses plus certified, organic mushrooms.

Tips for Choosing a Healthy Daily Diet

Among popular diet plans ranked on weight loss, heart health and ease of adherence the diets ranked best overall continue to be:

  • Mediterranean eating pattern
  • Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) 

These two diets rank highest because of scientific evidence supporting them. 

Rankings can help you choose a healthy and safe diet. Factors such as are the calories unreasonably low and is the nutrition adequate and the key issue about choosing the right diet plan is:
  • The behavior change and can you maintain it lifelong
A diet plan that gives you no help to change how you think and behave about food is unlikely to last very long. For complete benefit the Mediterranean and DASH diets rank high because:
  • they are both healthy and safe
  • they are both rooted in substantial nutritional research
  • the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute support a diet such as DASH rich in nutrients expected to lower blood pressure, mainly potassium, calcium, magnesium, protein and fiber
  • a Mediterranean diet typical in Spain reduced risk for cardiovascular disease particularly stroke and diabetes
The Mediterranean pattern and the DASH diet share key features that are exactly the same recommendations of the Dietary Guidelines for Americans:
  • eat a variety of vegetables including dark green, red and orange along with other types, as well as legumes (beans, peas)
  • eat a variety of fruits especially "whole fruits"
  • eat grains, at least half of which should be whole grains
  • include dairy such as milk, yogurt, cheese and/or fortified soy beverages daily
  • eat a variety of protein foods that includes seafood, lean meats, poultry, eggs, legumes, nuts and seeds
  • use unsaturated plant oils
  • limit red and processed meats, added sugars and salt
Bottom line:
The diet you choose and how you implement it depends upon your personal tastes. You have to create it in ways you will enjoy as well as what is convenient for you.
Based upon scientific evidence I am inclined to believe the DASH or Mediterranean pattern of eating is most healthy.
One way you can supplement your chosen healthy diet plan for additional daily nutrition and convenience is to use the Life's Abundance Greens Blend.

  • Raw, certified-organic grasses
  • Certified-organic mushrooms
  • Delicious berry flavor
  • No “grassy” taste
