You have itchy eyes, runny nose, scratchy throat. sting and you sneeze every 2 minutes?
Do not search anymore ! You have all the symptoms of hay fever like 20% of French people and… me!
Spring is the favorite time for this allergic rhinitis which spoils the beautiful season for me. Blame it on the pollen…
Luckily, I know some tricks to fight those spring allergies.
Here are 10 effective tips to say STOP to hay fever:
Pollens love to spread through the air at the end of the day. It is therefore better to air your interior in the morning to prevent them from entering your home.
The lawn will wait and the walks in the countryside too. I know, it's a big sacrifice. But imagine that when you walk in the fields, the pollens are only waiting for one thing:to target you.
Give up gardening:mowing the lawn is the worst idea you can have if you are susceptible to hay fever. Let the grass grow for a few weeks. You'll mow it later.
Are you a city dweller? Do not rejoice too quickly… In town too, pollen threatens you. Avoid going out to parks and wooded areas for a while.
Precisely... just as much as pollens, pollutants are your number one enemies. Pollutants will amplify the allergenic effects pollen. Avoid polluted or smoky atmospheres and fumes from paint or lacquer as much as possible.
No ! it's not about wearing a mask when you go out (although...). On the other hand, do not forget to place a mini-hazelnut of Homéoplasmine-type cream in your nostrils. This homeopathic balm will form a natural filter against pollen.
Sore throat or ears? Heal yourself quickly. These conditions weaken your respiratory system, which will become more vulnerable to allergens. Summer or winter, don't let these little problems drag on.
It's very simple, but it's crazy good! If your eyes are itchy and you look like a rabbit from rubbing them, splash some water on your eyelids. Irritating pollens will be chased away. Dry with a clean cloth (handkerchiefs, towels).
You can also use a moistened cotton ball. If you're out and about, remember to take an atomizer and some paper tissues. They can save your day!
I have noticed a relationship between my consumption of dairy products and my hay fever. The less dairy products I consume, the less susceptible I am to hay fever.
I learned that dairy products promote the production of mucus that clogs the immune system, which promotes allergies. It is worth limiting their consumption or even avoiding them completely for a while.
Take a teaspoon of honey. Add a drop of tarragon essential oil and a drop of lavender essential oil. Swallow this mixture.
Use this remedy 3 times a day for a week. This essential oil blend is super effective in clearing hay fever symptoms.
Mix 1 drop of tarragon essential oil and 1 drop of lavender essential oil. Massage your nose and temples with this mixture, as long as the symptoms of hay fever persist.
When you come home after spending time outdoors, take off your clothes so you don't bring pollen back into your house. You can also rinse your hair:pollen may have settled on it.
There you go, you know all my tricks to avoid hay fever :-)
With these tips, you will be able to cure your symptoms quickly!
