Focusing on ways to reduce the effects of stress is important for overall health and should
include relaxation techniques, meditation, stress coping strategies, daily exercise, sufficient
sleep, healthy eating habits (no skipping meals), and a well thought out supplement
program that helps support and protect the body. A great way to start is by taking a
comprehensive mulltvitamin-mineral, as well as omega-3 fish oils, probiotics, and
ashwaganda. There are some nice formulas that contain ashwagandha along with other
adaptogenic herbs such as rhodiola, panax gensing, cordyceps, eleuthero, bacopa, holy
basil, and schisandra.

Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is an important antioxidant present

ascorbic acid levels fall there is a significant increase in
blood histamine levels. Vitamin C is believed to both prevent
histamine release as well as enhance histamine detoxification.
Nettle leaf inhibits key inflammatory processes that cause
seasonal allergy symptoms, including the antagonist activity
against the Histamine-1 (H1) receptor and inhibition of mast
cell tryptase which blocks the release of a number of pro-
inflammatory events that cause the symptoms of hay fever. It
has astringent, diuretic, tonic and hypotensive (blood
pressure lowering) actions, and contains chlorophyll,
acetylcholine, vitamin C, numerous minerals (iron, potassium,
calcium, silica), histamine, and flavonol glycosides including
quercetin. Nettle leaf can help prevent the onset of allergies,
and also reduce symptoms caused by all allergic responses,
such as hay fever, asthma, and sinusitis.
