Treating Allergies with Herbal Medicine

The more medicines we ingest the less likely our bodies are to respond to the medicine. We tend to build up a tolerance over time. This means that if you take Advil regularly for your headache, you are going to need to increase your dosage over time for it to have the same effect. Over years, this means that we often turn to medicines in increasing frequency and dosages to deal with our many medical problems, with steadily decreasing rates of return.

Nowhere is this more true than with allergies. There is strong evidence that the more regular allergy medicines we take, the less effective they are over time. The good new is that there are several ways that we can treat allergies naturally. By using vitamins, minerals and herbs, you will increase your immune system strength and provide your body with better adrenal support. You are then not just fighting allergies, but are helping to help your body fight off illnesses in the future.

This type of approach to fighting allergies is known as an orthomolecular approach. This type of approach focuses on using nutritional supplements to boost the body. This can help to correct any nutritional imbalances in your body that can affect the immune system.

What you need to try to do is to boost your immune system with various supplements to help to help you fight off allergies naturally. Some of the supplements and natural herbs that you can use to help fight off allergies include:
