Relieving Hay Fever & Seasonal Allergies

Spring Is Here And So Are Seasonal Allergies Such As Hay Fever

As the sun fills each day with her warmth and beauty, the flowers, trees and grasses begin to grow, filling the air with their fresh, fragrant aroma. It is a wonderful time of year, unless you are one of the many who suffer from seasonal allergies commonly referred to as Hay fever.

Airborne allergies often vary by season, with grasses and trees pollinating in the late spring and early summer and weeds doing their dirty work from late summer to the first hard frost of winter. Depending on which pollen an you are allergic to; allergy symptoms may be present at any or all of these times.

Other things can cause an allergic reaction that can be confused as hay fever. Molds, for example, are capable of triggering an allergic reaction. They begin their active season during the winter through early spring. Dust, dust mites and animal dander have also been known to trigger runny noses, sneezing and congestion as well.

What Causes Seasonal Allergies / Hay Fever

Allergic reactions are caused by the over reaction of the liver to foreign protein bodies. This over-protective reaction of the body to the environment can be caused by a multitude of factors including pollen, dust, animal hair, industrial and home chemicals, foods, and even cosmetics.

The common thread among seasonal allergy sufferers is a weakness or a missing factor in their internal systems. Cellular wastes are not being broken down or eliminated correctly and are allowed to circulate in the system too long. Uneliminated waste materials then weaken tissues and organs, polluting the delicate ecological balance in our inner environment. White blood cells are then triggered into activity when there is an excess of protein buildup in the system, which send chemical messages to the bodies other defenses. Over time, a chronic agitation in the defense systems creates a hypersensitive condition, which precedes all allergies and hay fever.

Traditional medicine typically recommends products that contain anti-histamines to help alleviate the symptoms of seasonal allergies or they may suggest getting allergy shots to help desensitize the body.  If you want to go the natural root, below are some natural remedies you can use to eliminate seasonal allergies such as hay fever from your life naturally.
