Good nutrition for allergies, hay fever

What is Good nutrition for allergies, hay fever ?


It's hay fever season down here in Arizona now.
But I am very happy I don't have to suffer from it anymore.

Today, I want to talk about some of the good nutrition for hay fever. This is not my secret formula and you may need to take at least 3 months to get the result. But this also helps to keep your body healthy.

* Take Vitamin C and E

When your body doen't have enough Vitamin E, it is easy to get allergic reactions.

Vitamin E has power to calm some allergic reactions and
get rid of cholestorol, improve blood circulation, fix your hormonal balance, keep skin young,

You can take it from herbs or foods such as
beans, nuts ( almonds, hazelnuts, and sunflower seeds).

The richest source of vitamin E is wheat germ. Other foods that contain vitamin E include liver, eggs, sunflower seeds; corn-oil margarine; mayonnaise; cold-pressed vegetable oils, including olive, corn, safflower, soybean, spinach and kale; greens (beet, collard, mustard, turnip) sweet potatoes; avocado, asparagus and yams

Vitamin C has power to get rid of your stress.
If you feel stressed out, take foods such as guava , kiwi, strawberry, orange, lemon, potatos ( but not fried potatos, French fries ) .


* Avoid to eat fast foods, instant foods,

Since instant foods and fast foods became popular and people started to eat these junk foods such as frozen pizza ( and many other frozen foods) , hamburgers, fried potatos, people have been getting allergic reactions, hay fever, eczema, itchy skin.

Because fresh foods and fresh herbs contain the best natural vitamins , it's good to eat while still fresh.

But If you are really serious to relieve your hay fever immediately, I recommend to use my secret formula.

Eczema, Itchy Skin

Characterised by extremely dry, inflamed and itchy skin, eczema is a very common problem that affects one in ten of us.
When eczema ( itchy skin) develops early in life, it is mainly referred to as atopic and usually runs in families with a history of allergies such as hayfever and asthma.

Certain household allergens such as dust, house-mites and animal danders seem to provoke flare-ups. Outbreaks of eczema can also be triggered by viral infections and stress.

Eczema (itchy skin) usually appears on the inner arms, especially elbows, backs of knees and wrists but in severe cases may affect the whole body.

Sometimes tiny itchy blisters appear and the skin can be weepy. Scratching itchy skin can allow germs to pass into the skin which leads to infection.

Eczema also occurs when the skin reacts to certain irritants such as nickel in jewellery, perfumes and plastics. This may also be referred to as contact dermatitis. Long-term use of hydro-cortisone creams makes the skin thinner and more easily damaged.

Here are some better natural alternatives :

Try applying a compress, made with an infusion of chamomile, to itchy skin and inflamed areas. Apply some aloe vera gel to the skin .

• The omega-3 and -6 fatty acids are particularly helpful for eczema sufferers. As well as moisturising skin from within, they also reduce inflammation. It is well worth supplementing your diet with a combination of cod liver oil and borage oil capsules. Zinc, vitamin C and B6 are also important nutrients for promoting skin healing.

• As stress aggravates eczema, finding a way to stay calm and composed helps keep flare-ups at bay. Be sure your diet is rich in anti-stress B vitamins.

Chinese herbal medicine is often successful at treating skin problems such as eczema. Treatment is specially tailored to each individual.

• Reduce exposure to dust and house-mites as well as any known allergens. Investing in anti-dust-mite bedding often reduces eczema flare-ups.
Wear pure cotton, silk and soft natural fibres next to your skin – avoid prickly wool.

Food allergies can also trigger and exacerbate eczema.

The above remedies take a lot of patience and time.

There is a much faster and effective natural remedy for eczema ( itchy skin ) which is detailed in my book, How to Blast Your Allergies Away Forever !

Beneficial Foods and Nutritional Supplements for
hay fever
By Raymond Entwistle


Hayfever sufferers should try to include more of the following foods in their everyday diet: Beta carotene rich foods, such as the red, orange and yellow fruits and vegetables, are also rich in bioflavonoids and vitamin C.

Hayfever sufferers require greater amounts of these nutrients.

Try to find good quality food, organic if possible - the vitamin levels will be higher and it will be free of synthetic pesticide residues.

Dark green foods are also helpful as they help to eliminate excess toxins in the body. They also contain large amounts of beta carotene.

Choose dark green leafy salads like watercress ; vegetables such as spinach, broccoli, freshly picked nettles, green beans and kale.

Seaweeds are also beneficial due to their high mineral content. Supplement your diet with spirulina, blue green algae, wheatgrass, or chlorella as well as including these foods in your diet.Sprouted seeds and bean sprouts are also very beneficial.
Add to salads and soups.

Garlic helps to reduce excess catarrh, eat two raw cloves a day (have on toast or stir into food at the end of cooking) or take a garlic supplement.

Oats feed and nourish the nervous system and contain significant quantities of B vitamins and minerals.


P.S. These supplements are good for many kinds of illness and they will keep your body healthy. However it will take a while and you have to be very patient.

The Seasons for Hay Fever

By Raymond Entwistle


Trees, grasses and weeds have windborne pollen.
According to sensitivity, the "hay fever season" for a particular individual occurs when the plants that affect him or her pollinate.


Thus, in general, those sensitive to tree pollens (such as elm, maple, birch, poplar and others) suffer in the early spring.

Late spring and early summer is the time for the grasses , which affect nearly half of all hay fever sufferers. Weeds, such as ragweed, flourish and pollinate from mid-August to mid-fall.

Of people with hay fever, 75 per cent are sensitive to ragweed.

But an individual may react to one or more pollens in more than one of these groups, so that his own "season" may be from early spring to the first frost.

For that matter, a person sensitive to dust, to dog dander, or to some other airborne material from which he cannot easily escape may suffer all year round.

Mold and fungus spores (seeds), also airborne substances during the summer months, cause reactions in many people.

Frequently found around hay, straw and dead leaves, their growth is encouraged by humid weather and places with poor ventilation -- damp basements, for instance.

How Hay Fever Occurs ?


Hay fever is caused by windborne substances like pollen and ragweed. The allergy is caused by an over reaction to these substances. Usually, the body sends out antibodies to fight off the offending invaders and the amount of antibodies sent is usually proportional to the amount of damage.


But if you have an allergy, the body sends out too many antibodies, which then attack the allergen and the body’s own tissue, causing the usual hay fever symptoms of runny nose, itchy eyes, sinus pressure.

In order to alleviate this problem it is best to avoid whatever is causing your allergy. Of course, this is not always possible.

The usual medications that are recommended only work for a short time. They only alleviate the symptoms, they don’t go to the core of the problem. Allergy shots are the same. They may work for one allergy season, but not for the next.


Natural remedies are much safer, and often go to the root of the problem, fixing the underlying cause of the body’s over reaction in the first place.

There are several herbs that help with hay fever.

Nettles has been a longtime favorite. It contains many vitamins and minerals that help the body overcome the allergy.


Leeks and green onions are also excellent. You can make leeks and green onion soup. This will go a long way toward helping alleviate your symptoms.

Cayenne pepper. This herb is very hot, and if you can tolerate it, is excellent for almost any allergy or illness. It contains many vitamins and minerals which are circulated throughout the blood stream.

One of the best ways to cool off after taking cayenne, is to drink a glass of cold milk.

Elder flowers is another herb that’s very helpful.

All the allergy cure didnt work for me !


I had been suffering for years from hay fever.

I had tried all the different over the counter medications.

None of them worked for me.

They all have side effects, some of them serious.

Most of them made me feel worse than the condition itself.
What was my experience ?
You know the feeling, your hay fever is acting up, so you take one of the common medications.
Next thing you know, you’re sleeping for like 24 hours, and when you wake up, you feel like you’ve been hit by a mack truck.

You’re still groggy.

Or, you take a medication that says it doesn’t cause drowsiness, and what do you get ?

Your heart starts racing.

What’s wrong with this picture ?

What about all the different allergy treatments ?

They are all too expensive.

They take too long, and often require complicated procedures.

You can get allergy shots. But they only work for one allergy season.

And who really wants to get shots, anyway ?

So I started looking into natural remedies.

I went to the library and researched herbal remedies.

After trying some, I started getting better results, but most of them were too slow.

And all the herbs that they said were for hay fever and allergies, didn’t work for me.

I got some pretty good results with a Chinese herbs formula ,but not quite strong enough.

I was still suffering with hay fever.

I was taking another herb that I had read about that seemed promising, but it also didn’t help with my hay fever.

But it did have one excellent side benefit.

It got rid of an annoying skin itch caused by the dry air of the Southwest, that had been plaguing me ever since I moved there.

So I continued taking it.

Then one day, I took that same herb, and completely by accident, I happened to take another herb I had read about soon after.

Within twenty minutes, my hay fever was gone !

It has never come back.

The funny thing is,
if I take only one herb without the other, they don’t work.

If you took only one or the other of either of these herbs, you would never know either one of them is even remotely good for allergies and hay fever.

But taken together, what a powerhouse !!

Absolutely unbelievable !

Don’t waste your precious time and money on expensive medications !

Natural remedies hold the answers.

You just have to be patient, and find them.
