• The Allergic Cascade
• When histamine is released from the vasodilation it is to attract other white cells to mount an attack to the are to eliminate the invader
• Meds: Antihistamine systemically to block the cascade (side effects)
• Inhaled or systemic steroids:
• How a steroid works: blocks the arachidonic pathway tha yields inflammatory cytokines. Arachidonic acid is an omega 6, inflammatory and high in our American diet and obesity
• Leukotriene blockers (Singulair)
• Immune modulators such as Xolair
• Desensitization shots
• Symptom relief of cough, eye itching, skin (cough syrups, epinephrine sprays)
• Natural relief: AVOIDANCE!!!
• exercise has anti inflammation on sinuses
• Local honey or bee pollen
• Neti-pot with saline rinses
• Probiotics
• Water
• Herbs: stinging nettle
• , garlic ( and this is mostly because of quercetin)
• , rosemary,
• turmeric,
• butterbur,
• bromelain,
• N acetyl cystein
• Vitamin C and vitamin D
• Great results from Accupuncture and an acupressure targeting the “end organ” response to the allergic trigger
• Here in Colorado Springs we have some great practitioners with quiet sophisticated energy practices including these techniques that are eliminating or reducing the allergic cascade non invasively
• Low inflammatory diet
• High sugary, processed, high carb, high grain food raise insulin, then raises cortisol, and our cells are bombarded with “stress hormone” and cells can get rendered cortisol resistant. Then you’d need higher and higher steroids to get to work
• High intake of improper fats, fried foods will give up much more omega 6 and 9s, which is the arachidonic acid we were talking about that yields the inflammatory cytokines and prostaglandins in the first place
• A quick note about true allergies, then “irritants”: example is grass and smoke or other inhalants
