Most people who suffer with allergy
and sinus problems feel they must resort to using medications that have
unpleasant and even dangerous side effects. For those who may be
interested in safer, more natural alternatives, some of the following premium
products by Shaklee may be of interest.
TO STRENGTHEN THE IMMUNE SYSTEM
START HERE
Scientists now believe 70% of
the immune system is located in the gut … a good place to start to strengthen
our immune system against allergic reactions. There appears to be a
surprising correlation between symptoms of upper respiratory congestion and
sinus discomfort to poor elimination in the lower intestines. This
is often associated with an overgrowth of the Candida yeast
organisms. An increasing number of Americans suffer from Candida
when the essential friendly microbes Nature intended to reside in our
intestines get destroyed by medications such as antibiotics, steroid-based
drugs (e.g. asthma medications), oral contraceptives, and
more. Couple this with a diet culture so entrenched in sweets,
breads, baked goods, chips, and snacks that are the favorite foods of the
Candida organisms.
A patented technology that allows the very fragile
probiotics to pass through the highly acidic stomach protected by a triple
encapsulation so they arrive exactly at the right location in the lower
intestines.
Developed and extensively tested by
immunologists in Japan, this proprietary blend of natural plant extracts is
derived from pumpkin seeds, safflower flowers, plantago seeds, and Japanese
honeysuckle flower buds. Nutriferon supports and stimulates the
immune system by increasing the activity of macrophages (white blood cells) and
inducing natural interferon production. It optimizes the body’s
immune response against environmental irritants and airborne substances (as
with allergies and asthma). Completely safe – no adverse reactions
to these plant extracts recorded.
For continuous antioxidant protection
against environmental assaults, this unique all-natural sustained formula
slowly releases Vitamin C into your blood stream over a 5-hour period and
provides nutrients from the entire vitamin C complex including bioflavonoids.
Thus, it is very economical. It has been found to protect against
smog, chronic infection, allergies, asthma, colds, flu, swollen glands, anemia,
smoke, poor diet, stress, bruising, varicose and spider veins, colon polyps,
and slow healing.
Supported by 7 clinical studies, patented
bio-activated absorption system. Exceptional quality, over 340
quality tests on every batch produced. Contains 23 essential
vitamins and critical minerals, including 800 IU of Vitamin
D3. Kosher and gluten-free.
Also helpful to relieve symptoms:
With deep roots extending10 to 20
feet into the soil, this amazing plant is rich in trace minerals and protein
plus contains 8 digestive enzymes. Recognized as a natural anti-histamine,
allergy sufferers report good results from taking 3 or 4 of the little
compressed sun-dried leaf tablets … containing no pesticides, fungicides,
growth regulators, or synthetic hormones. Other popular uses for
alfalfa are swelling, pain and stiff joints, ulcers, stomach ailments, hiatal hernia,
water retention, gout, body odor, and bad breath.
Retains all the potency of one clove
of fresh raw garlic without the odor. Garlic is traditionally used for
its anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-viral and
anti-inflammatory properties. People
often take it to reduce symptoms of
allergy, asthma, colds, flu, sinus
infections, yeast infections, diarrhea &flatulence. It also has heart
protective properties of lowering elevated blood pressure and cholesterol
levels.
Diet
Emphasize fresh vegetables and avoid
sugar, breads,
and baked goods.
REDUCE EXPOSURE TO TOXINS
In addressing allergy and sinus
problems, a two-fold approach is usually recommended:
1) Strengthen the immune system (as
discussed above), and
2) Avoid products that could
aggravate allergy and sinus conditions such as certain foods and cleaning
products. Many cleaning products not only irritate the skin, but
their odors can aggravate upper respiratory problems.
Step one in reducing toxins in and
around our living space is to remove all toxic cleaning products from the home
..and replace them with the non-toxic, earth-friendly Get Clean Product line.
Oprah Winfrey named these remarkable, effective, and yet inexpensive cleaners
among her “favorite things”. They can be purchased individually or in the most
popular Get Clean Starter Kit. The kit includes products for the
kitchen, the bathroom, and the laundry ... in particular fragrance-free dryer
sheets (made from vegetables and biodegradable), a pint of Basic H2 (that makes
48 gallons of all purpose cleaner for about $10), and Scour Off cleanser for
pots, pans, and stove tops in the kitchen and for tile cleaning in the
bathroom. Kosher certified.
Disinfectant made without
cresol. Cresol is easily absorbed by the skin and causes digestive
disturbances, nervous disorders, mental changes, skin eruptions, and
jaundice. Basic G kills parvovirus, feline leukemia, distemper
virus, and the AIDS virus on surfaces. Note: for
allergy and sinus relief in the winter when it’s dry, remember to use a
humidifier with a few drops of Basic-G to inhibit bacterial growth.
Combine advanced technology with
herbal and botanical extracts
and antioxidants …especially
formulated for sensitive skin. Hypoallergenic, pH balanced, no artificial col
orants or heavy mineral oils, noncomedogenic (won’t
clog pores). Plus a comprehensive highly derma-available
complex designed to actually break each link in the chain of free radical damage. Literally reverses the
accelerated aging the sun of the skin caused by computer
screens, fluorescent lights, and the sun.
OTHER HELPFUL PRODUCTS
Contains Echinacea ... which
activates the immune system, promotes
production of white blood cells,
enhances resistance to infection (viral and bacterial), anti-inflammatory,
promotes wound healing, reduces mucous, relieves boils, gangrene, ulcerations,
bites, abscesses, and fights candida. Also contains larchtree
extract and elderberry to surround viruses and help prevent their reproduction.
Best taken at onset of avirus. Can also be used as a zinc lozenge or
made into a tea. Very soothing to sore throats.
Because the brain is the most
sensitive organ in the body, many experts recommend eliminating foods and
environmental irritants that could create brain allergies. (Source:
