So many of us needlessly suffer seasonal allergies. Do you know it it not normal or natural to be allergic to the very environment God created you to live in? There can be a root cause to this bodily reaction that is found in the liver. This is the largest organ in you body and acts as a filter for the blood, just like the filter in your duct work at home, this organ needs cleaned!
In Naturopathy, we attempt to work with the body and use herbs that will clear the liver, dry up secretions using astringent herbs, and reduce inflammation with anti-inflammatory herbs. The herbal formula, Allergy Relief, is a wonderful long term herbal formula to use in assisting the body to be allergy free!
Allergy Relief Contains:
Ephedra
A sympathetic nerve stimulant resembling adrenaline, its effect on the unstriped muscular fibres is remarkable. It acts promptly in relieving swellings of the mucous membrane. It has valuable antispasmodic properties, acts on the air passages and is of benefit in asthma and hay fever; it is also employed for rheumatisim.
Marshmallow Root
Marshmallow works as a mucilage, producing a thick sticky substance that coats membranes. Marshmallow extract contains flavanoids, which contain anti-inflammatory properties. The flavanoids are able to reduce inflammation while the mucilage holds them in place and prevents further damage. The extracts also induce phagocytosis, which is the process in which certain cells engulf bacteria, dead cell tissues or other solid particles. This helps speed up the healing process.
Golden Seal
The King of Herbs is useful in preventing secondary infection in hay fever, sinusitis, or chest congestion. It is also anti-inflammatory to the mucous membranes, and helps reduce and soothe swollen, irritated tissues. Golden seal is helpful in all types of airborne allergy responses.
Chaparral
Chaparral is an herb that has been used for centuries by Native American healers. Chaparral is one of the best herbal antibiotics that are useful against bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites, both internally and externally. Chaparral elps to improve liver function, is very cleansing to the urinary system. and has a strong anti-inflammatory effect.
Burdock Root
Burdock helps to cleanse the body from the inside out and is most useful in those conditions that can be traced back to liver disorders or a general overload of toxins in the system. Burdock has an ancient and respected reputation as a nutritive liver tonic that helps to clean and build the blood, while its diuretic action helps in the elimination of waste materials. Taken internally, this root promotes sweating and the elimination of harmful high levels of uric acid via the kidneys.
Parsley
Parsley displays anti-inflammatory and anti-hepatotoxicity properties. The anti-inflammatory properties reduce internal inflammations, while the anti-hepatotoxic properties help cleanse the liver. The vitamins, minerals and antioxidants found in parsley are helpful for strengthening immunity. Vitamins such as vitamin C, A, K, folate, and niacin each act on different aspects of the immune system. Vitamin A acts directly on lymphocytes or white blood cells, thereby increasing their effect. The chlorophyll contained in it has anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties as well. Studies have also shown that the herb contains antioxidant properties and antibacterial properties.
Lobelia
A powerful respiratory stimulant and antispasmodic. Lobelia functions as a bronchodilator, meaning it stimulates the respiratory system and may even help in alleviating the effects of asthma. It may also help relax the lungs when they’re tense or overworked. As an expectorant, it triggers the secretion of sputum through the air passages, which is why lobelia is commonly used to ease asthma and bronchitis.
Cayenne
Cayenne pepper benefits include its ability to stimulate circulation and eliminate acidity. Cayenne pepper restores the circulatory system by opening the capillaries and regulating blood sugar; it also helps the digestive system that moves bacteria and toxins out of the body.
