Fighting Allergies and Asthma
One-in-three people suffer from allergies.
Allergens, such as pollen, dust-mites or animal hair cause negative reactions
from the body’s immune system triggering the release of tissue-hormone
histamines. In turn, the histamines trigger sneezing, nasal congestion,
coughing, wheezing, itching and bronchial swelling. In clinical studies
Pycnogenol® was found to inhibit the release of histamines to help prevent
allergies. The strong anti-inflammatory property of this powerful antioxidant
inhibits the production of pro-inflammatory mediators which helps to relieve
swelling and reduce allergic reactions.
In case studies Pycnogenol® has shown results
in managing childhood asthma. In a blind-test study 60 participants ages 6 to
18 years old suffering with mild to moderate asthma supplemented with the use
of Pycnogenol® or a placebo. Those who received the Pycnogenol® showed
significant reduction or discontinued use of their rescue inhalers. The
complimentary placebo group showed no benefit. (Lau BHS et al. Pycnogenol® as
an adjunct in the management of childhood asthma. J Asthma 41: 825-832, 2004)
Pycnogenol®’s antioxidant activities coupled with its anti-inflammatory
properties soothe irritations that cause the bronchi to swell, relieving the
symptoms that make breathing difficult.
Many over-the-counter pharmaceutical
antihistamines used to treat allergies and asthma can have negative side
effects such as drowsiness, headaches, dry-mouth, confusion, blurred vision,
constipation and difficulty passing urine. The frequent use of inhalers like
Albuterol, commonly used to treat asthma, can have side-effects such as change
in appetite, dizziness, headache, hyperactivity, nausea, nervousness and
shakiness. Reducing the use of medication by taking an all-natural supplement
like OPC-3 is simply good commonsense and a good health choice for allergy and
asthma sufferers.

Ultimate Aloe Juice
The reason I use aloe juice when working with allergies and asthma is the fact that aloe juice has an amazing ability to
stimulate a healthy immune response as well as improve digestion. The
polysaccharides inside the aloe plant will stimulate the white blood cells to
attack foreign invaders like pollen and other substances that will trigger a
histamine response. Allergies and asthma indicate a weakened immune system. The
digestive tract plays a huge role in your immune system “weak digestive tract, weak immune system”. If you are suffering from allergies or asthma it is
important to address improving digestion. Not all aloe juice on the market
contains the enough active ingredients, polysaccharides, to be effective. The
Aloe Juice I recommend won the International Science Council award because of
its purity.
