1) Use local honey

(lots of onion, garlic, tumeric, etc...)
3) Take some dosing of stinging nettle around that time of the year
4) Do some herbal colon cleansing program about 2 times a year
5) Severly limit dairy intake, except live yogurt

I don't know if it's any one or a combination of the above, but my hayfever/allergies are almost not noticeable compared to what they were just 3 years ago...


Anyways, heres a brief read on some alternative health methods to dealing with it...google or vivisimo.com it a bit harder and you'll find a lot of common themes or things to try

I take Claritin-D (it's an over the counter 24 hour relief antihistamine) which works the best for me. It isn't a silver bullet, but it does alleviate many of the symptoms. I did try taking the standard Claritin which is the 12 hour dose, but it didn't work nearly as well.

Have you tried Claritin?
