10 Natural Ways to Relieve Spring Allergies

Now that winter is behind us, the long-awaited season of spring brings with it rebirth, renewal – and allergies. When flowers, grasses and trees begin to set forth their blooms, our allergies show up. Congestion, sneezing and watery eyes are no way to enjoy the gifts that spring brings. - See more at: [link to www.naturalblaze.com]

Good information here, and as it says in regards to honey. Make sure it is local raw honey. Pasteurized honey is not nearly has effective and if it's not local it may not contain the spores that are causing your allergies. On another note, do not feed honey to children under 12 months of age since they haven't built up a strong immune system yet.

Interesting how the body knows. I'm usually a decaf coffee hound but have been on tea with honey and lemon all week as I have sinus crap going on.

Your body knows what it needs.

I strongly recommend not drinking decaf due to the chemicals used in the process to decaffeinate a majority of decaf coffee. Some is decaffeinated by steam, which is okay, but it's hard to tell what you're getting...okay I'll get off my soap box for that now.

Tea is the second most popular drink in the world. Second only to water. The reason Americans do not drink tea like the rest of the planet goes all the way back to the Revolutionary War. Tea fell out of favor due to its high cost from taxes so our drink of choice changed to coffee. The health benefits from tea, not even including herbal teas, are amazing. I'll let you do your own research on that. Did you know all tea (black, oolong, green, white) are from the same plant? It is how the leaves are cured and the region the plants are grown in, that make the minor differences. So Assam, Ceylon, Earl Grey, etc, all come from the same plant yet they taste vastly different. Herbal teas are a whole different animal and many have their own health benefits.

I've already discussed honey, so no need to go further with that.

Lemons have their own benefits. They are antibacterial and antiviral when consumed, but they also have very important vitamins and minerals. They are effective cleaners; use a cup of lemon juice rather than bleach on your whites and find out. Lemon juice is also great for keeping food from browning when you cut it up, so next time you cut up apples or avocados, for example, put a couple tablespoons of lemon juice in the bowl with the freshly cut pieces and shake to coat. They will not brown...very helpful when preparing dishes in advance.

Hope you learned something new.

cheers

Its good advise Sol, no reason I can't switch to tea, drank it most of my life, I think I'll switch back. I do drink lots of homemade green tea. I will try the lemon juice in the laundry too, bleach doesn't work that well.
