What are seasonal allergies?
Seasonal allergies are a response to how the body's ​immune system reacts to substances like pollen from trees, grass, weeds, flowers and mold.  In defense, the body overreacts by releasing  ​histamine  which causes those irritating symptoms...sneezing, itchy, watery eyes and a stuffy and runny nose. These symptoms can affect your quality of life!

Why do I get seasonal allergies?
Having a genetic predisposition toward allergies and a run-down immune system makes you a perfect target for an allergy attack, especially if you live in a geographic region with pollen producing plants. In the ancient science of Ayurveda an allergy reaction is based on an imbalance in your natural constitution known as ​Dosha.

Are over-the-counter meds causing more harm than good?
It is understandable to want a 'quick fix' when you are miserable, but long term use of over-the-counter medications masks symptoms, can be counterproductive, cause serious side effects and even lead to brain damage.
