Herbs for Allergies

• ALJ®: I have found the most natural allergy relief with this herbal combination. Helps soothe irritated tissues, encourages the entire respiratory tract to gently cleanse itself, and assists the body in neutralizing allergens by nutritional means.

  ALJ combines selected herbs for allergies to nourish the immune and respiratory systems. This formula supports healthy lung function and helps support the body during seasonal changes. It also encourages the entire respiratory tract to gently cleanse itself and helps promote respiratory tissue health. It contains:

  • Boneset aerial parts
  • Fennel seeds
  • Fenugreek seeds
  • Horseradish root extract
  • Mullein leaves extract
• ECHINACEA: An effective allergy cure for sinusitis! Promotes immune defense and creates an unfriendly environment for bacteria. Take Take 15–20 drops (1 ml) in water with a meal three times daily or 2 capsules with a meal three times daily.(The tincture acts more quickly than capsules if you have a severe sinus infection.)

Aromatherapy

• PEPPERMINT OIL: Place a few drops in a bowl of boiling water, place a towel over your head, and carefully inhale steam. Peppermint oil is antispasmodic and a decongestant.

Place a few drops in a bowl of boiling water, place a towel over your head, and carefully inhale steam. Frequent (up to 5 or 6 times a day) steam inhalations help decongest sinuses effectively.

Vitamins and Minerals

• SUPER ORAC: Full of antioxidants that provides key nutrients needed by the body to neutralize free radicals, helps prevent cellular damage, and boost immunity.

  Antioxidants are the body’s natural defense against free radicals. They scavenge them, “mopping up” free radicals before they have a chance to harm cells.

  Super ORAC combines eight powerful ingredients known to quench free radicals—decaffeinated green tea leaves, mangosteen pericarp extract, turmeric root, quercetin, resveratrol, apple extract, açaí berry extract and selenium.
