Hay Fever
Misery!


Water and Salt?!
Drink water

"The pollen count's getting higher and higher
My eyes are sore and my nose is on fire
My throat's dry now and I'm starting to perspire
My stuffed up head's killing all of my desire
I got hay fever, you wicked allergy,
Hay fever, you put the curse on me
and I've inhaled every known remedy ."

Yes, it’s the start of the hay fever season and for 15-20% of the population, the start of the misery season!

Yes, and don’t take my word for it, try this. When you have hay fever symptoms, drink two ½ pints of water, put a tiny pinch of salt on the tip of your tongue and see what happens. Water and salt are strong, natural anti-histamines.

In fact, most people find that when they drink 3-4 pints of water a day and take half a teaspoon of salt in their daily diet, many of their niggling health problems just disappear. Click here to find out why.

Local honeyLocal Honey

Some people find that taking a teaspoon of local honey every day throughout the hay fever season reduces their symptoms. It’s possible that this is because minute amounts of pollen in the honey gradually build up immunity to it.

Local honey is recommended because the allergy may be to specific pollen from flowers or trees growing in a particular area. Supermarket honey is mainly imported and may not do the trick, so find a good local supplier.
