Do you suffer from allergies?

Spring is finally upon us! While we all welcome the warm weather, for many of us, spring also brings itchy eyes, sneezing, a runny nose, coughs, and stuffed up sinuses. Pharmaceutical commercials promise relief and clarity – but are they the only solution?

Far from it! From a naturopathic perspective, allergic symptoms are caused by an abnormal immune reaction to something that is normally harmless. This triggers a production of inflammation in the body which leads to allergic symptoms. With this in mind, we can then prevent and/or manage allergies by reducing inflammation in the body and balancing the immune system through changes in diet, and nutritional and herbal supplements.
