Traditional Medicinals Tea, Breathe Easy, 16-Count Unit (Pack of 6)

I'm all for natural remedies, but only when scientific studies have proven their efficacy. I've used homeopathic medicines in the past but I'm not sure it really worked and partly because I couldn't understand its scientific basis, I remain skeptic. Having said all that, I know how people desperate for relief would try anything that could help ease their allergies or other ailments. Sometimes, including me.

Colette Cope from the Natural Living Blog has enumerated some of the more common natural remedies for allergies which included the following:

homeopathic medicine: BioAllers, Similasan nasal spray and eye drops

herbal supplements: stinging nettles, eyebright and eyebright nettle tincture, Quercetin

decongestants: Olbas Nasal Inhaler, Breathe Easy Tea

Head on over and read her article for more details.

What's your take on probiotics? Do you know how they work against allergic disease?

Response from: Ruth (05/10/07 4:23am)

Probiotics make a lot of sense if you subscribe to the hygiene hypothesis. You get exposed to (non-pathogenic) bugs and could possibly reduce hypersensitivity to certain allergens. However, I don't see consumption of probiotic products as a form of treatment; more like something which boosts the immune system in a general sense. There are a number of studies linking probiotics to lower incidence of allergies and asthma, but the relationship doesn't seem to be causal.
