Edit to previous plan. Today is a wash - the Zyrtec and analgesics are no match for the pollen-fu. I guess I'll be spending another day at home, feeling rather blah.

So, how are all of you doing today? May I live vicariously through you, for today? :)

Are any particular herbs more helpful? I've been trying to put local honey in my tea, but if that actually has any benefit, it's more of a long-term plan.

Honey is definitely a long term thing. And it doesn't always work. The honey should be harvested as close to home as possible (a few miles is best). Also, you should take a couple of teaspoonfuls a day for a couple of months before the pollen season starts.

I take a vitamin/herb/amino acid complex called Aller-max from Whole Foods (there are also other complexes to choose from). I also take bee pollen and royal jelly.

Thank you very much, I will check out some blends. Maybe I'll shuffle my sniffly, puffy self on down to WF this evening.

I drink a lot of tea, so the couple of teaspoons hasn't been too hard on me, other then I prefer my tea unsweetened. And I get it from Wheatsville.

But I probably also ought to just capitulate and make an appointment with onyxlynxx's allergist, at least in prep for next year.
