1. Find your allergy triggers.
Note all the details surrounding your allergy flare-ups: where you are, what you've been doing, what time of day and year it is. Then report them to your doctor, telling her exactly how the symptoms feel.

2. Change your environment.
Ask your doctor how to minimize exposure to substances that prompt your flare-ups. Keeping pets out of certain rooms, covering your mattress, or running the air conditioner to filter out pollens are some commonly used and effective allergy countermeasures.

3. Ask about corticosteroid sprays.
Low-dose prescription corticosteroid nasal sprays can be extremely effective for relieving chronic congestion with minimal side effects.

4. Get the latest treatment.
Ask your doctor if she's familiar with the state-of-the-art treatment guidelines of the Joint Task Force on Practice Parameters in Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology.

5. Be persistent.
Go back to your family doctor if symptoms don't improve. Or ask for a referral to an allergist if you have not seen one already

Because allergies are caused by an improper immune response, reducing allergies requires improving the health of the immune system



Nutrition is vitally important for a properly functioning immune system. Without the essential nutrients, the body cannot produce the cells need for immune function, and allergies are a good example of a sputtering immune system. Eat more fruits and vegetables. Drink more water. Get more complex carbohydrates and essential fatty acids into your diet by eating whole grains and fresh fish. It is important to note that even food can be a source of allergies. If you find this to be the case, consider supplementing your improved diet with vitamins and minerals.

Exercise is also helpful is boosting immune function. The activity of aerobic exercise helps to stimulate proper immune cells (Igg), and suppress histamine-producing immune cells (Ige).

One of the best ways to improve immune system function is to improve nervous system function. Because the nervous system regulates the immune system, a properly functioning nervous system is better able to coordinated immune cell activity. Chiropractic adjustments have helped many allergy sufferers by improving the health of the nervous system.
