Allergies are an overreaction of the immune system to substances that are usually harmless, such as pollen, dust, certain foods, or pet dander. This heightened response can lead to symptoms like nasal congestion, itchy eyes, skin rashes, and respiratory discomfort. In Ayurvedic terms, allergies are often attributed to an imbalance in the Kapha and Pitta doshas, exacerbated by environmental pollutants, dietary triggers, and stress.
Try these simple and effective remedies specifically targeted for allergies:
Use Dhanyamla Taila as nasal drops to cleanse and lubricate the nasal passages. This therapy helps reduce nasal congestion and restores dosha balance, easing allergic symptoms.
Prepare a decoction using fresh Tulsi (holy basil) leaves. Tulsi is known for its immunomodulatory properties and can help reduce the severity of allergic reactions by balancing the immune response.
Mix a teaspoon of Guduchi (Tinospora cordifolia) powder in warm water and drink it daily. Guduchi supports detoxification and strengthens immunity, making it beneficial for managing allergies.
Boil a teaspoon each of fennel and coriander seeds in water, strain, and drink the warm liquid. This remedy helps to clear the airways, reduce histamine release, and soothe allergic symptoms.
Chew a small piece of licorice root or take it in powdered form with water. Licorice root has natural demulcent properties that soothe throat irritation caused by postnasal drip and allergic responses.
Add fresh coriander leaves to your salads or smoothies. Rich in antioxidants, coriander may help neutralise toxins and reduce the inflammatory effects of allergens.
