Throw away your Allergy Meds (Easy Herbal Allergy Remedy that really Works)

[@chrystalrowe43]

I have debilitating migraines all the time and my doctor keeps giving me pills that don't work, I'm tired of it. I saw a video from the honeystead KZbin channel that was about how she uses feverfew for her headaches. Coincidentally, I had it growing in my yard and now one homemade capsule a day and no headaches for almost a year now.

I used to get sinus headaches all the time. They were awful. 😞 I had purchased food grade coconut oil for my skin, but found that it wasn't very useful. So I decided to make use of it by adding it to my breakfast toast. It was really good quality coconut oil, and was wonderfully fragrant. I used it for a week, and one day realized that I hadnt had any sinus headaches! I continued to use it, and kept track of headaches, but essentially, I have NEVER suffered from them again. This was probably ten years ago now. This still absolutely amazes me. I'm so thankful. God provides so many wonderful cures. 🌿 Hopefully this may help someone else.

Well your probably not going to believe this but I am living proof. I got allergies at age 11 and when I was 37 it turned into asthma. I had 2 different inhalers and would have to go to the doctor about every 4 months for steroid and antibiotic treatment because I couldn't control the symptoms. I finally came to the conclusion I was going to die from this if I couldn't find another solution. So I found some info on peroxide and breathing problems like pneumonia. So I put collodial silver and peroxide in my nebulizer. 2 parts silver 1 part peroxide and after 3 treatments the wheezing started to clear. I couldn't believe finally something was actually helping clear my lungs. About a month past and my breathing was good enough I was only using my rescue inhaler if I had to walk alot and the other one not at all. So by 2 months no inhalers or doctor visits ever again. But my sinuses were still congestion and I decided to get a nasal sprayer fill it with the 2 parts collodial silver 1 part peroxide. I knew that it probably would burn but I wanted to be a normal person again. I sparyed it in one nostril and yes it did burn for about 10 seconds but stopped. I could feel it bubbling for about 5 seconds and instantly felt releaf. So in 3 days of using this spary my sinuses were completely clear I had not felt this good since before I got allergies at 11. But I was sure as soon as allergy season came back and the pine pollen I want be sneezing just like normal for me again.. But no everything has changed. My allergies would start in March and it's the middle of May. Nothing, no watery eyes sneezing, feeling feverish nothing. I can sleep all night and breath through my nose and no sneezing in the morning. It's truly a miracle from GOD I have found this. Maybe it could help others

I ordered me the little pill maker and got the herbs and made them and I cannot tell you the difference that it has made in my allergies.

[@AnnaEmert]

I just placed an order. Growing up in Houston ragweed was an issue but moving to TN I am suffering 6 months out of the year with allergies. Looking forward to doing this. Thank you for sharing.

Stinging nettle, dead nettle or....? What form? Leaves? Seeds? Stems? Roots? I know with stinging nettle each of those plant parts is beneficial for different symptoms/conditions. I'm still learning so much, and appreciate your info.

[@mysticmeadow9116]

She is referring to Stinging nettle. Most people that grow or forage use the leaves and dry them. If you order online it should tell you what part of the plant is being used. She said "cut & sifted' but that's not an indicator of which part was used.

[@sburger1685]

The root is good for inflammation. The leaf for hay fever.

Y''all just rocked my world. I've been messing around with creating a power greens supplement out of powdered greens we've gathered around the place, and now I have the way to take them easily. That'd also be a great SOTS class.

I tried this and is helpful but way too many pills. Made an infused mtc oil. Now only need 2-4 capsules. Thanks for the information ❤

If these plants/herbs help with seasonal allergies, would they also work for (relatively mild) dust mite and/or cat allergy?

[@wendybird3107]

My son missed 2 days of work because he was feeling awful due to his sinuses, i have stinging nettle root capsules that i bought for me, i read the benefits of stinging nettle root and i mentioned to him that it could help for his sinuses and allergies and started taking them, one capsules a day and in 2 days he was feeling so much better that he would come to my house just to drink his capsules on his own with out me nagging 😂 it worked with my allergies too, i highly recommended it, it did work for us❤

This was amazing... I would love if you could do a video on asmatha. Thanks for sharing your info

[@FineFeatheredHomestead]

Asthma is a life threatening condition. It's advisable to only try herbal remedies while having the medicine on hand. A friend of mine has an asthmatic son who has found a lot of relief from mullein tea, because it is mucillagenous (coats the esophagus linings) and calms the respiratory system. It doesn't interfere with Albuterol inhalers, so you don't have to worry about interaction there.

[@KetzK11]

I used to deal with asthma, but thankfully no more! It's been a healing journey with a good holistic doctor to help me. I made lifestyle and diet changes. Also, I avoid fragrance scented items as much as possible. Best to you. 🤗💕

[@WildeandFreeTN]

Going to have to look into this and many more. My family and I have had mold poisoning for the last 6 months since we moved to TN pushing to build out our homestead and assured there was no MOLD in our rental, Yet finally testing it ourselves and discovering we have been living in a MOLD RENTAL HOME. It got me bad being I slept in the worst concentrated room most nights our youngest slept with me in the same room and now I have a stutter and soo many other symptoms. If you have any suggestions or anyone else please please send them our way. Thanks for the awesome videos yall publish. ☺

[@marthasundquist5761]

I have been mold compromised also...I found that doing Doug Kaufman's antifungal diet is a good start, then rotating antifungal herbs about a month at a time for each one has helped tremendously over time. I use grapefruit seed extract, cinnamon, mct oil( from coconuts), garlic, olive leaf extract, oil of oregano, caprylic acid(from coconuts) chlorophyll. I also take psyllium husk at night to help bind up the dying organisms poisons they release so that stuff doesn't recirculate making me feel crappy. Good. Luck! Molds and fungi love sugar....so be strict about abstaining from that! Remember...it akes time to kill all the pocket colonies they form I side you. Taking a good probiotic like Dr.O'Hiras has proven to help beak down the capsules fungi make to enclose their little colonies making them accessible to the herbs getting I'm and killing them!

[@Slowandcozyliving]

Caroline, thank you so much for this video! This is such a relief to find something so easy to make and better for the body than what is currently out there. Do you have any ideas like this for something like inflammation or celiac? I would love to see more videos on other easy homemade remedies like this. Thank you again!

[@GallieSallie]

I'm don't have celiac but bad IBS for decades. Going gluten free for 5 years didn't help much. Once I embraced the Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD) my excess weight just fell off (it was inflammation) and I could finally eat without pain. You can start with the book, "Breaking the Vicious Cycle" and there's also a lot of info online now. It includes some limited dairy but once I dropped that I no longer had any seasonal allergies and my constant sinus drip resolved. Dairy causes inflammation. It was daunting to start but after 2 weeks the change was so huge there was no going back. Totally changed my life.

[@Slowandcozyliving]

@@GallieSallie thank you so much. I appreciate the info 😊

[@nicolettewilliamsonstaff8510]

Since I introduced kefir into my diet, I've completely rid myself from "seasonal" allergies. After years of use, I no longer need to drink kefir every day. Other conditions have also disappeared.

[@Kelly-yi3bw]

QUESTION: WHAT IS THE SHELF LIFE OF THOSE HERB CAPSULES YOU JUST MADE BEFORE THEY LOSE THEIR POTENCY???

[@FineFeatheredHomestead]

Usually a year.

[@2shay337]

1: does this herb combo only work for hay fever allergies? or will it work for others as well? 2: do you have to take the same amount 3 X's a day if you make a smoothie or eat honey infused with same herbs? 3: same question for if you drink a tea with honey infused herbs? 4: would organic coconut oil work or would it harden to much mixed with bees' wax? I most often drink a smoothie with added turmeric/black pepper, small amount of ginger, avocado, banana, frozen blueberries, Bing cherries seasonal fruits in the morning. Or make steel cut oatmeal with different nuts and apples with raw honey. Don't imagine the herb infused honey taste good in oatmeal so drinking a tea or capsules be way to go then.

[@kathymoorehead7827]

CAUTION: I have allergies and wanted to read up on this natural remedy but found a lot of reasons to be cautious with alfalfa: may cause or be harmful to those with lupus, may be a blood thinner as high in vitamin K and therefore take caution if you are on other blood thinners, may reduce how well birth control pills with estrogen work, may decrease blood sugar for diabetics which could cause too low blood sugar. Please do your homework yourself. Be safe.

[@chachadodds5860]

Yes, let's all do our due diligence. The advice here is confusing for folks. Here's the scoop: Most green plants are high in Vit K, which is why doctors & nutritionists tell patients that are on Rx blood thinners, to keep their intake of these plants to a minimum. Vit K acts as a blood clotting agent, and will counter act the purpose of the blood thinners. Although, the best advice given to my husband after his double heart valve replacement, was to rest as much greens as he wanted, but to be consistent in his consumption so that the regular testing one must have done, will accurately calculate the dosage of blood thinners. I take extra Vit K because I bruise easily and often have such profuse and drawn out nose bleeds that they put a halt to my plans for the day. Vit K helps me go about my day free of nose bleeds. Again, Alfalfa is high in Vit K. If you are on blood thinners, proceed with caution, and have your INR test done more frequently.

[@crazychicken4063]

Yes, definitely read up. This is not putting down or criticizing this information being given us in this video though. To me, it's just a given to research into *any* health remedies especially those I will be putting into my body. I do the same for Rx the doctor recommends. It's our own responsibility to check into remedies and such. We know our bodies and what health issues we're having. ** I appreciate there are people who will show us alternatives to over the counter meds. But there is no way they are going to know your own personal health history. ** So. *Do your part and do the research and check if it will be safe for YOU.* We have Google. It's a lot easier now to find information.

[@donnahilton471]

Isn't K for clotting?

Great video! so smart! ------ Just a head up - for some people, nettle may not be so safe - especially people with bleeding disorders, or who are on blood thinners or nosebleeds or bruising.
