3 natural anti-spring allergy supplements for you

We are just warming up to spring in many of the higher parts of the Northern hemisphere. While on the one hand we are happy for the extra hours of sunshine, this also means that the plants and trees everywhere are waking up from their winter slumber. This brings with it pollen and pollen-related allergies.??

Is there a natural supplement to help me with my allergies??

Several food supplements containing natural extracts are recommended to treat spring fever. We have listed a few below.?

Quercetin?

Known for its potent antioxidant properties, quercetin is also naturally anti-allergic (Jafarinia M et al. 2020).? It inhibits the release of histamines, decreases pro-inflammatory cytokines, leukotrienes creation, and suppresses interleukin IL-4 production (Mlcek J et al. 2016). In fact, quercetin has been shown to be a better anti-allergy substance than an anti-allergic drug, disodium cromoglycate.??

You can read our botanical supplements blog post for more information on quercetin.?

Reishi mushrooms??

Botanically known as Ganoderma lucidum, Reishi mushrooms are also known as the lingzi mushroom (Examine.com). It has been shown to be especially useful in preventing pollen-induced allergic rhinitis (Mizutani N et al. 2012).??

Particularly, liposomal encapsulation of reishi mushrooms has been proven to increase its immunological effects (Liu Z et al. 2015).??

Omega 3?

In our previous blog post, we recommended Omega-3 fatty acid supplements as a general health supplement for all seasons.??

This is true of allergy season as well. A study of 568 Germans showed that omega-3 fatty acids in the diet is associated with a decreased risk of allergic sensitisation and allergic rhinitis (Hoff S et al. 2005). A similar study in a Japanese population corroborated the finding.??
