Aller-Vite Dietary Supplement 100 Tablets

Description

Allergy symptoms occur when your body's immune system overreacts to substances in your environment and starts fighting them as if they were bacteria or viruses by releasing a biochemical called histamine. Many doctors believe that a healthy diet and certain nutritional supplements can balance your immune system, keeping it strong but not overreactive. With that in mind, here are particulars on the nutrients that may be helpful in fighting allergies. For the best allergy-alleviating action, add these nutrients to your balanced diet: Vitamin C stops histamine. Studies have shown that high levels of vitamin C help reduce histamine release and make histamine break down faster once it is released. Other studies have shown that vitamin C deficiency can send blood levels of histamine soaring. Bioflavonoids help too. These chemical compounds, which are closely related to vitamin C, may help reduce the body's release of symptom-producing histamine. The chemical structure of bioflavonoids is similar to that of a drug used in asthma inhalers. Experts recommend eating bioflavonoid-rich foods such as citrus fruits, cherries, dark grapes, broccoli, and red and green peppers, and drinking herbal teas. Caution: •Doses of vitamin C exceeding 2,000 mg a day can cause diarrhea. Multivitamin/minerals. Vitamins and minerals are necessary for proper growth, metabolism, digestion, immune system function, muscle and nerve function and detoxification processes in the liver. Scientific studies have shown that the majority of us are deficient in many essential nutrients because of poor dietary habits and other factors that may deplete nutrient levels such as caffeine, drugs, stress or pollution. A full-spectrum multivitamin and mineral product, in a highly absorbable form, is essential to ensure the foundation of health.
