Simple Spring Allergies Relief

Spring blooms are all around us in the western hemisphere along with runny noses, eyes, coughing, sneezing and low grade fevers. These symptoms are not from summer colds but from allergies to pollens, grass and a host of other environmental air factors. Does spring have to be so miserable?

Dr. Victor Rocine made a statement in 1930 that still hold true: "If we eat wrongly, no doctor can cure us, if we eat rightly NO doctor is needed." That still holds true, up to a point. In decades past people did not have all our empty nutrient foods and less illness occurred

Traditional medical world sadly can only treat or mask symptoms not treat them. Like Hippocrates the father of medicine, Rocine believed that food together with exercise, rest, sunshine and positive attitude made for a very healthy person. That still holds true today, BUT for the shift in our foodstuffs.

The farmers depleted their lands by not letting it rest the seventh year and/or rotating their crops, as had been set aside from the beginning, which prevented the very depletion of nutrients in the soil. Thereby depleted soils grow depleted foodstuffs today. We should hold to the same Adage of old, food, exercise, rest, sunshine and positive attitude add to that nutritional supplements to make for a healthy person and fewer allergies.

Allergies cost Americans more than $600 million annually in lost wages, with nearly 3.5 million days lost. Allergies cause us to feel awful with a runny nose, watery eyes, and congestion and sometimes a fever. Allergies can range from very mild and almost unnoticed, except for a tired feeling. To severe with drastic illness resulting. Allergic reactions range from life threatening as in the case of allergies to bee stings or penicillin to responses as mild as sneezing when you sniff a flower to which you are sensitive.

Are you at risk for allergies?

Fifty percent of people are allergic to poison ivy -- It affects about 50 million a year. Poison ivy can enter our bodies when we touch it or inhale it.

One in ten people suffer from some form of allergy.

Insect bites/stings affect more than 2 million of us whether in the form of swelling or inflammation or an anaphylactic response, which can be life threatening.

Food allergies are more common in children but do affect some adults.

Grass, weeds and pollen trigger hay fever and allergies.

People at risk live with a fast paced life, fast food, inadequate rest and taking chemicals for headaches, backaches, etc. Chemical drugs are foreign to your body and should only be introduced in life threatening illnesses as a last resort!

An allergy is an indication of your immune system being out of sync and needs to be balanced in order to function with the rest of your body. As annoying as the symptoms of allergy are, they do serve a purpose " they are an attempt by the body to wash away the offending allergen.

SURPRISE - SURPRISE - SURPRISE

Why are some people allergic to their cats or to certain foods, while others have no adverse reactions to anything? This is an area of open debate and intense research in the traditional medical world Their conclusion, so far, is that children who were breast-fed have fewer allergies. Simply because their mothers' past on her immunities to them.

In 99 out of 100 adults the body is depleted of chemicals, as the medical profession refers to them. This shows up in the form of depression diagnosed as a Chemical Imbalance. These chemicals are nothing more than the minerals our body needs to function properly and generate the electrical impulses needed to run our body. In this day and age it is an absolute necessity to put those minerals into your body by supplementing. The foodstuffs do not contain enough to give us the proper balance.

This I discovered for myself about 9 years ago. I developed a horrendous array of allergy symptoms and was going nuts with the runny nose, eyes, headaches, achy body and itchy skin. I discovered those problems subsided a few weeks after I began taking an Ionic Liquid Minerals and when I added Immune Support Master Formula had virtually no allergic symptoms. I slough off ever once in a while and don't take the minerals and vitamins and end up with allergy symptoms only to realize I had been lazy and not taken them for a while.

I discovered in my search for healing of those miserable allergies that when my immune system is in tune and my minerals balanced, and my immune system balanced I can be symptom free. Read "The ABC's Of Minerals" at www.antibiotic-alternatives.com/abcs_of_minerals.htm

The medical profession is so diverse in their beliefs of allergy causes and has totally overlooked the simple and ordinary natural prevention and/or repair. As usual, they are honed in on a chemical to alleviate the problems and the body becomes more allergic due to that attitude.

I must say that building the immune system up and eating properly is not a cure for 100% of the people but those with simple pollen, animal and plant allergies are more likely to be free of symptoms. Our environments are polluted so with manmade toxins that we are in danger of life threatening illnesses from them. With a balanced chemicalized body we run a better chance of not developing those toxic poison illnesses.
