What you can do about sinusitis and Hay Fever?

Some main areas to address are:

• Hydration. Being at all dehydrated will exacerbate the irritability of your mucous membranes.
• Boost and balance your immune system. An over active immune system can be the problem with an allergic style reaction (Also see our allergies page)
• Become aware of foods that may be making the problem worse.

It is not uncommon for this type of condition to be seasonal. For a seasonal reaction, it is advised to commence a treatment plan well before the problem season occurs - this will provide the best chance for your body to get the full benefit of the treatment and prevent the next reaction from occurring.
