[Promo] Foods That May Help Seasonal Allergies

[DrLiz Greenberg]

*Ginger:* Ginger is a natural antihistamine and decongestant. It may
provide some relief from allergy symptoms by dilating constricted bronchial
tubes.

*Apples:* Some foods contain the flavonoid quercetin that can cross-react
with tree pollen. Quercetin can reduce allergic reactions by having an
antihistamine effect. It also decreases inflammation. Quercetin occurs
naturally in certain foods, such as apples (with the skin on), berries, red
grapes, red onions, capers, and black tea.

*Carrots:* Carotenoids are a family of plant pigments that include
beta-carotene. A lack of carotenoids in the diet is thought to promote
inflammation in your airways. Good sources of carotenoids include apricots,
carrots, pumpkin, sweet potato, spinach, kale, butternut squash, and
collard greens.

*Omega-3:* Omega-3 essential fatty acids can counter the formation of
chemicals that cause inflammation of the air passages. Good natural sources
include flax seed oil and salmon.

*Yogurt:* Food sensitivities seem to be connected with seasonal allergies.
In a study conducted at the University of California, San Diego School of
Medicine, patients who were fed 18 to 24 ounces of yogurt a day experienced
a decline in their environmental allergic symptoms by 90 percent.

*Fiber:* A healthy and active colon can decrease food sensitivity, which,
in turn, can lighten the burden on your immune system and may reduce the
impact of seasonal allergies. For maximum colon health, increase the fiber
in your diet
