Guest guest Posted May 1, 2004 Report Share Posted May 1, 2004 I use 1/8th of a teaspoon of organic salt with 8 oz of distilled water for nasal irrigation. It keeps for a few days in the fridge until I make a new badge. This nasal irrigation also has been very helpful to keep bugs at bay.. Nettle tea is very good to help with allergies..

Guest guest Posted May 15, 2006 Report Share Posted May 15, 2006 ANy know of a good remedy for sever allergies? Mainly nasal decongestion and sinusitis? Thanks Mary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 17, 2006 Report Share Posted May 17, 2006 Mary, I make a nasal decongestant with buffered, powdered vitamin c in saline solution. i buy the saline over the counter and add 1 gram of vitamin c to it. Vitamin C is more readily absorbed intranasally. I have also in severe cases snorted a pinch of cayenne to get things moving... sounds drastic but it isnt nearly as bad as you think... and it does get things moving. It is slightly warm, does not burn. also if you have oregano oil, a drop or 2 in a small amount of juice will clear you up.. excellent anitviral, good for the whole body.

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 Use the " neti pot " to help clear your sinuses of pollen. This is used to clear up the malfunctions of the sinuses. A natural aid that works as a decongestant and natural antihistamine. This came from the book written by Dr Christopher. He was an Herbalist. Formula for allergies, sinus, hayfever 1 part Brigham Tea (Ephedra species)(which you probably wont find) (AND DONT USE ANYWAY IF YOU HAVE HEART PROBLEMS!) 1 part Marshmallow root (Althaea officinalis) 1 part Golden seal root (Hydrastis canadensis) 1 part Chaparrall (Larrea tridentata) 1 part Burdock root (Arctium lappa) 1 part Parsley root (Petroselinum crispum) 1 part Lobelia (Lobelia inflata) 1 part Cayenne (Capsicum frutescens; C. minimum) Make caps 2 caps 3 x day. Unless of course you are allergic to any of this. I am not a doctor just a studying herbalist. This is a recomendation only. Not a prescription. -- In herbal remedies , " maryboyd4 " <purplegirlmary wrote: > > ANy know of a good remedy for sever allergies? Mainly nasal > decongestion and sinusitis?
