While springtime gets a lot of credit for being the worst season for allergy sufferers, according to the CDC 75 percent of seasonal allergies occur in late summer and early fall; the culprits: weeds. Ragweed is the most widespread offender but others like sagebrush and tumbleweed are also guilty. Allergies—an overreaction of the immune system to allergens--are the sixth leading cause of chronic illness among Americans. That means more than 50 million people suffer from seasonal or year-round allergies each year.
So what do you do when your eyes start itching, your sinuses get congested and your cough just won’t quit? After reading a stack of magazines and their websites, we found the most info at Prevention magazine. Topics include natural ways to ease and prevent allergies, over the counter vs prescription drugs and allergy risk factors. Runners-up in the allergy info department are Natural Health magazine and Real Simple magazine.
I cannot believe this will work!

The reason you have allergies could actually be caused by mold growth in your home. I would start by getting an infrared test done on your house to make sure your air quality is clear before performing any remedies.
