Subject:	Seasonal Allergies - any advice?
Date:	April 10, 2013 at 3:11 pm PST

My 17yr old daughter has terrible 'seasonal' allergies (they last nearly all year round). They seem to get worse and worse as time goes by; she has a headache almost every day and often times it's very bad. We live in SW Missouri.

Here's what we are doing:
Supplements:
1T raw ACV and blackstrap molasses each morning
Nettle tea every day with raw local honey

Diet:
Lots of raw fruits and some raw veggies each day (including a green smoothie)
Lots of gently cooked veggies
Some fermented vegetable each day (sauerkraut, carrots, etc.)
Fish and a little meat (usually home butchered meat)
Sunflower seeds and almonds
Some dried fruit for extra calories (she gets so hungry!!)

No dairy except a little organic clarified butter which I guess is technically just straight fat without the dairy sugar or protein.

She was eating organic whole grains but a few weeks ago we cut out ALL grains and ALL sugar except the raw local honey with tea.

Just started adding fresh, raw vegetable juice daily

Any other suggestions, tips, ideas???? Maybe you have a testimony of how you cured or helped your seasonal allergies? We do not like drugs, so we stay away from those!!

Thank you!
