When Allergy Season Is a Way of Life

For as long as I can remember, I have struggled with allergies. When you hear someone say that, (I’m guilty of it myself) it’s easy to dismiss as not a big deal. But living with it day in and day out – the headaches, the sinus pressure, the snot, the sneezing, the exhaustion and that unrelenting itchy skin- can run you mad. Life goes on despite your anaphylactic agony and you must find a way to cope. I was at the end of my rope with OTC allergy medicine that made my symptoms worse. I was taking several pills a day with only tiredness and nosebleeds to show for it. Just when I thought there was no hope for me, I was introduced to doTerra TriEase softgels. It contains Lavender, Lemon and Peppermint oil. I was skeptical. Really?! Mountains of medication won’t work but three simple essential oils will? I tried two softgels on one particularly difficult night and was amazed by the results. Now, it didn’t take away my symptoms completely. That’s okay! I’ve always had allergies. I will always have them. It did, however, relieve the intensity of my allergy attack and over the next two months, my symptoms slowly improved with daily use. I now take it as needed without any other allergy medicine. Coupled with the aromatherapeutic use of these oils as well as Rosemary, I have finally hit upon a solution. I cannot recommend this enough. Not only does it work, it’s cost effective to boot! (twenty dollars for off-brand Claritin?!?!) While I’m not a doctor and cannot say this will work for everybody, it is totally worth a try. Two thumbs up!
