Ayurvedic treatment for hay fever
I was reading about Ayurvedic treatments for hay fever and wondered whether anyone had tried any. I really hate having to take antihistamines every year as they make me feel so dopey.
They suggested taking quarter teaspoons of turmeric powder mixed with honey twice a day with lots of herbal teas and warm water. In fact they suggested making your own teas with ginger, turmeric, cumin seeds and cinnamon and sipping five to six cups a day.
They also talked about coating the inside of your nose with almond oil, coconut oil or sesame oil presumably to protect it from the pollen. I did try a product call something like nasalese last year which sort of did the same thing which was quite good.
Love to know if anyone has tried any of these and if they found them any good.
