Allergies spoil the lives of millions of people around the world. And if you can fight the reaction to any food products by adjusting your own menu, then it is much more difficult to deal with an allergy to pollen.

And since the hay fever season is in full swing, we suggest exploring top 10 ways to deal with allergies.

10. Cleansing the body

Very often, the cause of allergic reactions is slagging of the body. Therefore, it is very important for people suffering from allergies to maintain a normal gastrointestinal tract, and during exacerbation, for example, during the flowering of ragweed, take sorbents (Polysorb, Filtrum, Enterosgel).

9. Elimination of stress

During a period of nervous or physical exhaustion, the body reacts much more strongly to allergens. Therefore, in the acute period it is so important to get enough sleep, be less nervous and avoid strong unrest.

8. Antihistamines

Passion for allergy medications can be a joke, because in addition to relieving swelling, itching, and a runny nose, these drugs inhibit the natural defenses of any organism, as well as those processes that cannot occur without histamines, such as neuroregulation and digestion.

7. Homeopathy

In allergy homeopathy, there are truly effective treatments. However, like any homeopathic medicine, such a medicine will require long-term use, correction of the regimen and diet, and will also cause an exacerbation in the first half of treatment.

6. Contact Exclusion

The easiest way to completely get rid of allergies is to eliminate contact with the allergen. Therefore, with hay fever, it is so important to determine the source of the negative reaction. And plan your next vacation, for example, at the peak of flowering cereals or ragweed.

5. Mummy

It is believed that taking a 0.1 percent solution of mummy helps to get rid of symptoms such as lacrimation and stuffy nose during an allergy period. The solution is enough to take once a day for 20-25 days.

4. Folk methods

In folk medicine, herbal medicine for allergies is very popular. However, not all herbs can be used for hay fever. The most effective and safe is considered a decoction of dried viburnum at the rate of 2 tsp. one and a half glasses of hot water. The broth is taken during the exacerbation of a tablespoon up to 4 times a day.

3. Nasal lavage

With hay fever, it is very important to clean the sensitive mucous membranes from pollen, dust and other irritating elements. Therefore, washing the nose and gargling with saline several times a day can significantly reduce the manifestation of allergies.

2. Drink plenty

Any allergic reaction in the body is accompanied by intoxication. To remove toxins, you need to use a sufficient amount of liquid. Thus, you can reduce such unpleasant symptoms as a headache, as well as a constant feeling of fatigue.

1. Strengthening immunity

The presence of allergic reactions is evidence of malfunctioning of the immune system. Therefore, work on strengthening immunity will allow for a long time to forget about unpleasant symptoms. This may seem unexpected to someone, but sports, healthy eating and hardening - the most effective ways to deal with allergies.
