Springtime, Allergy-time

by ruth on April 5th, 2008

Suffering from allergies? Brace up! As the temperatures rise and the trees start blooming, so will your allergy symptoms flare up. Some food-based alternative therapies used for relieving symptoms of allergic rhinitis include bromelain, found in pineapples (obviously wouldn’t work for those with allergies to pineapples).

Bromelain may be a useful addition to other therapies used for sinusitis (such as antibiotics) due to its ability to reduce inflammation/swelling. Studies report mixed results, although overall bromelain appears to be beneficial for reducing swelling and improving breathing.

You can find more alternative therapies used in the treatment of allergies from rvita. For more on allergies, also visit the Allergizer, a comprehensive web resource for all types of allergies.
