Pollens & Hayfever
April 8th, 2009
We have found a brilliant new product developed by Patrick Holford and produced by Biocare that switches off allergic reactions such as pollen allergies, hayfever, wasp stings, mosquito bites, itching, rashes etc. It is a complex of natures finest anti-hystamines, Vit C & Quercitine, and anti-inflammatorys MSM & Bromelain.
So taking this product along with probiotics and eliminating the offending foods from your diet really does give the body a chance to take stock. Lessening the toxic burden on the system will allow the mast cells to switch off and therefore stop producing so much hystamine, hence less or no allergic reaction.

Charlotte, the product is called Allex and I have seen some remarkable results in patients who have been using it.

I am alergic to tree pollen (that’s my diagnosis)
May/June & Sept/Oct when sap is on the way up or on the way down, especially if it is windy makes me sneezy and itchy in the nose.
I also experience itchyness in the mouth and throat whenever I eat trre-fruit like Apples, Pears, Peaches etc. but OK with Citrus fruit or berries.
Best treatment recommendations please……….

Lorraine,
I suggest that you have a full allergy test becaue there may well be other foods that are underlying your allergic reactions and causing the production of hystamines to be worse than it could be. If you let us know where abouts in the UK you are we will put you in touch with your nearest Allergy Test UK tester. Additionally I recommend a product called Allex by Biocare this is a natural anti-hystamine complex that really works!!

my daughter suffers from quite severe redness on her forehead,even washing her face with water makes it worse,it maybe a form of acne,i am wondering that something she may be eating,could be making it worse

My husband has suffered from severe allergic rhinitis for the last eight years. It is worse from Feb – june and was told that he suffers from tree pollen related hayfever. But he is never completely free from symptoms the rest of the year. His symptoms are worst at present with constant dripping nose, blocked nose especially at night which causes snoring and sleep apnoea, and a cough which causes headaches. Pulsitilla homeopathic remedy helps a little but he never feels well. We would really like to help releive this and would like to have an allergy test and treatment advice.

How old is your daughter? Acne is often aggravated by dairy products but without testing her it’s difficult to know. Where abouts are you in the UK?

Allergic rhinitus and hayfever are aggravated by mucous forming foods such as dairy products. Your husband would benefit from taking Allex (natural anti-hystamine complex by Biocare). If you let us know whereabouts in the UK you are we can put you in touch with your nearest tester so that he can have a full food and environmental test.

For people going on holiday and using a probiotic Nature’s Choice Super Dophilus does not require refrigeration.
10. samantha thompson | June 15th, 2009 at 11:27 am
Yes and taking probiotics on holiday will help to avoid tummy upsets and holiday constipation!!!

I have always suffered with hayfever but after all these years this is the first that I have suffered so badly at night time. I’ve dusted & hoovered the room excessively all bedding is dried inside and the only change I can put it down to is that I have recently aquired a new bed frame. The slats of the bed have knots which have some sap coming out of them – can I be allergic to this sap? Please help as I’m now sleeping any where but in my own bed !

Without testing you for the sap it is difficult to say but it is possible if that is the only change you can detect. Try cutting out cows milk products to reduce the amount of mucous your body is making and take Allex by Biocare, it is a natural anti-hystamine complex that really works. Additionally you can try this remedy if you like the sound of it : – locally produced honey from within a 5 mile radius of where you live, 1 teaspoon in the morning and 1 teaspoon in the evening, minimum.

Hi there,
I suffer from hayfever constantly, even throughout the year it seems. I am constantly sneezing, and sniffling, especially at night. When it is really bad I end up getting big sores like broken skin and blisters in my nose. At night I almost feel my nasal passages starting to swell, and fill up, until I can no longer breath through it. Then the usual starts…. It effects my sleep, and I just can’t take it any more.
I have just read the blogs above, and will try Allex. But since I suffer even through the winter I really don’t have a clue what is upsetting me. I live in Barnet, Herts, do you know of anywhere I can get tested, and also roughly how much the tests cost? By the way, I don’t eat dairy, eggs or wheat since I am intolerant to them. I was tested by York Testing Laboratories to confirm this.
I really hope someone can help. It is making my life utterly miserable!
Thanks in advance guys…
Nicola

Hi there
I was hoping to get a full allergy test done as I am constantly sneezing and have developed a skin condition round my eyes. I was wondering if you could give me details of a test centre near Edinburgh?
Thanks
Naomi

I suffer from hay fever and my allergies also on top of it. I have tried so many medications and recently I came across a article on “kiwi drug” news about ” Flonase over the counter ” Nasal Spray. I must say this has been a God send for me. I highly recommend trying it. One hint: when inserting the nozzle – spray and point towards the “outside” of your nasal passage.

Hi Naomi,
I am based in Troon. Where are you situated?

Hi Sam I must say after reading ur post I have tried Flonase out. I have been a long time suffer of allergies and normal otc medication just wasn’t cutting it for me anymore. I have been taking Flonase for over 1 week and I find that I get the same of not better results from Nasacort . Both work great but just wanted to let you know which one works better for me.
18. sam | November 23rd, 2009 at 3:54 pm
The problem with both Flonase and Nasacort is that they are both corticosteroid treatments. Corticosteroids do not cure the cause of the allergy they merely mask it’s symptoms. So imagine for one minute that you have a fire burning out of control and the smoke alarm is going off relentlessly. Would you just turn off the smoke alarm and walk away leaving the fire burning?
Prolonged use of corticosteroids is not recommended and in the product information for patients as produced by Glaxo Smith Kline the side effects are clearly stated: -
Headaches, nosebleeds, nasal fungal infections, coughs and asthma like symptoms, glaucoma and cataracts.
Steroids are merely an anti-inflammatory which surpress the symtoms of an underlying problem and in doing so suppress the immune system. Isn’t it preferable to find out the cause of the allergy or rhinitus and remove that from your daily life rather than risk long term damage from steroids.
Incidently it also states in the patient information and guidelines that pregnant women may use Flonase if the need outways the risk. The risk being to an unborn fetus is that of severe weight loss and cleft palatte according to Glaxo Smith Clines own research.
I also recommend as well as Allex by Biocare another one of there products which is called Muccolyte for the reduction of hystamines and mucous. Best of all though is to have an allergy test and find out what is actually the cause of your problem.

Helen,
A full test with one of our testers will reveal what exactly is causing you to react this can be safely done during pregnancy. In addition there are some natural anti-hystamines that can be taken in pregnancy but we would need to conduct the test first to ascertain exactly what is going on with you. If you would like to call us on 01934 842923 we can discuss this further with you.
