How to treat allergies, naturally.

My aversion to all things big pharma started before I even knew what “big pharma” was.

I have nearly everything a survival kit would need in my purse at all times - but Tylenol? No way. I stopped taking hormonal birth control at 22 because I just didn’t want it. Hell - I’ve even had major surgeries and skipped the pain pills because I swear they make me feel worse. 

None of this was to make a statement, or because I’m holier than thou. It was some weird subconscious decision that my body would rather drink an herbal tea than take a pill.

BUT then - 4 years ago, I started getting seasonal allergies HARD. We’re talking itchy dry eyes, constant sneezing, and feeling like I was in an overall fog. When my dreariness would get overly annoying - my now husband passed the Flonase. “You need to take this every day. Before it gets this bad.” Nooooooo. 

Interestingly, he’s not a big pharma guy either. Our cabinets are stocked with every herb and supplement you can imagine, and close to zero real meds - except the Flonase. Why? According to him - “I’m not f*ing with allergies - they suck and nothing else works.”

So, I went on a hunt. At first I was trying to cure myself with herbal teas (obviously - my go to) but it wasn’t super convenient, and I would miss doses. Then - in such GOOD fashion - we got an email from a company called Airloom.

This job is sick in many ways (namely getting to hang out with all of you a few times a year) but the most unexpected perk is learning about new brands who are doing big things. Airloom is an all natural, vegan, gluten free capsule meant to encourage a healthy histamine response and boost your immune system. It was created by a doctor who desperately wanted to help his suffering wife without a bunch of toxic chemicals. (Josh - you couldn’t do this for me???)

The all nautral ingredients are: 

  • Organic Turmeric

  • Organic Bromelain

  • Organic Quercetin

  • Organic Grape Seed Extract

  • Butterbur root extract (PA-free)

  • Other ingredients: Organic rice flour and hypromellose (vegetable capsule shell)

Spring is my worst allergy season - so we’re putting Airloom to the test. But the reviews from others are GLOWING - not only do people report lessened allergy symptoms, but overall brightness, clarity, and less mental fog. I just know Airloom will be a staple in my “medicine” cabinet.
