In most parts of the country we are starting to see early signs of spring. The trees are budding, the crocus are popping their dainty heads out of the defrosting earth. A new birth of a 2018 is coming out of hibernation and ready to guide us through 2018. With all of our little green leafy friends comes seasonal allergies. Many folks suffer from an array of allergies from plants. There are many ways to help with soothing and reducing your symptoms. Before the Allergy season is in full effect. I suggest a little detox! Think of it as flushing the system from hibernating all winter. Shaking the dust off a bit. The anti-inflammatory diet is a great detox. Pair this with our Nourishing Balancer Detox Tea and Tincture and our Deep Clean Capsules for a well rounded detox. This helps to clear the body of unwanted inflammation and nourish all our organs for a fresh start. I love adding a bit of local honey or bee pollen to my diet during this time as a allergy preventative. The Herb Shoppe has several items that can help guide you through allergy season and help to reduce the symptoms caused by seasonal allergies.
These are some of my favorites:
-Achoo Away Tea Blend & NEW Capsule Blend: For all-around allergy relief. This highly nutritive blend is not only effective for chasing away hay fever and allergies, but also supports liver and kidney detox, and rebuilds depleted reserves.-Aquila Allergy Elixir: Don’t let allergies cloud your springtime! Trust the Eagle to carry away your itchy eyes, stuffy nose, & sinus headaches.
