Seasonal or environmental allergies can quickly become a nightmare: runny nose, itchy eyes, incessant sneezing... Fortunately, there are natural solutions to relieve these symptoms without resorting to medication.
1. Local honey
Local honey is often considered a natural remedy for seasonal allergies. The idea is that regular consumption of honey, containing small amounts of local pollen, can help desensitize the body to allergens. In addition to this potential effect, honey has anti-inflammatory, soothing, and antibacterial properties and can relieve throat irritation due to sneezing or congestion.
2. Nasal wash with salt water
A simple saline rinse of the nasal passages can eliminate allergens and reduce inflammation. Using a nasal spray or Neti pot is an effective natural method for decongesting and soothing irritated mucous membranes.
3. Essential oils
Eucalyptus or lavender essential oil can be diffused or applied (diluted) to relieve allergy symptoms.
🌿 Lavender essential oil : Has anti-inflammatory and soothing properties, ideal for itching and irritation.
🌿 Peppermint essential oil : Acts as a natural decongestant and refreshes nasal passages.
How to use them?
✅ Diffusion : A few drops in a diffuser to purify the air and relieve respiratory tract irritation.
