Allergy Season Advice




With over 40 million people suffering from allergic reactions and the side effects associated with conventional medicine, many people are looking for safe and natural answers.

At Evergreen we are well versed in how to help our customers with their allergies.

One of our most often recommended solutions to seasonal allergies is Homeopathy. There are some very impressive clinical studies using allersodes. Allersodes are homeopathically prepared tiny amounts of the allergens, for example tree pollens. This is based on the homeopathic principle “like cures like”, comparable to allergy shot desensitization. The studies were performed by a team of medical doctors in Scotland and were published between 1985 and 2000, and they demonstrated the effectiveness of using homeopathic allergens to treat allergies. In one of the studies after 4 weeks of treatment the study participants experienced an 80% reduction in symptoms. They continued to monitor the participants and found that for up to 5 weeks after the last dose was taken the study participants continued to show reduced allergy symptoms.

Evergreen carries a number of these allersodes targeted for the most common allergy groups such as tree pollens, molds, grass pollens, dust mites and pet dander. We also carry two very effective blends of the trees grasses and weeds specific to our area.

Many people experience relief using herbal remedies. Nettles can be very effective at drying up nasal passages and watery eyes. Nettles contain natural anti-histamines and anti-inflammatory substances that reduce the swelling of allergy aggravated tissue.

Vitamin C acts as a natural antihistamine, 1000-2000 mg. can block the release of histamine from mast cells. Quercetin is an anti-inflammatory bioflavonoid that has the ability to inhibit excessive production and release of histamine, 800-1200 mg. per day is a very effective dose.

Come to Evergreen first for help with allergies, we have natural, safe solutions that work!
