Make an eyewash from goldenseal or eyebright teas. Once the tea has cooled, put in a dropper bottle and apply to irritated eyes.

I have VERY bad nasal allergies durring the spring time, i get so congested and im blowing my nose constantly.

boil water in a pot with salt in it, untill its steaming, put your head over the pot with a towl over your head, and breath the steam in, it clears out your nose for a long time.

Many of you may have read that local honey can cure your allergies. I can confirm this worked for me. And I mean REALLY worked.

I had horrible allergies throughout my entire life. I couldn't lay on a lawn or even drive with the windows rolled down in the spring time. And I really dreaded spring time, because it meant misery.

Anyways, I started using honey in my mid 30's as part of a weight training program. I was using it for a quick carb boost for 2 years daily. I didn't even use the local honey...I just bought honey.

After about 2 years of this, my allergies went away almost completely. Spring is quite enjoyable now, and I'm still allergy free 4 years later. And yes....I still eat that honey.

It's not an instant cure, but I highly recommend it to anyone with the willpower to wait a few years for results.

If your child is allergic to Chlorine the only thing you can do is get them to gradually start swimming in a pool. Take them and make them do swimming lessons and after awhile the allergy goes away. Get their bodies used to the chlorine. My mum did it for me!

Allergies are a sign of a dirty colon and a liver backed up with toxins.Cleanse the liver and cleanse the colon and the allergies will go away. Maybe not right away but over time.

I have allergies that cause me to have watery eyes, violent sneezing, and tiredness. Someone recommended to me to try burning effusion lamps in my house to rid the air of a lot of common allergy problems. Sounds like a con, but it really works. The lamps are very pretty and the oil makes your whole house smell heavenly. They can be pricey but they are well worth it.

Like an estimated 70% of people*, I'm lactose intolerant. Technically, not an allergy, but incredibly painful nonetheless.
What I've found works best is simple and tasty: yogurt. I'll eat a bowl in the morning and be OK to eat moderate amounts of dairy throughout the day. It even helps after I've eaten cheese and the pain kicks in.
As for other remedies: Lactaid pills are expensive and in my experience don't work as well. As for acidophilus pills: see Lactaid. Good old organic lowfat yogurt mixed with a little maple syrup is my weapon of choice against lactose.

I had terrible allergies and I totally revamped my diet. Avoid inflammatory foods like meat, eggs and dairy. Try tempeh, beans,raw veggies. Take a buffered Vitamin C supplement every day. Also, Quercetin and Grape Seed Extract are supposedly good.
