Quercetin, Vitamin C, and bromelain are commonly used together to combat multiple allergy symptoms. Quercetin and Vitamin C are natural antihistamines, and bromelain makes quercetin more bioavailable. All three nutrients can reduce inflam-mation, including that related to asthma. Quercetin is a safe, well-tolerated, inexpensive bioflavonoid found in high levels in onions, red wine, and green tea. It is also found in apples. Ester-C® is a highly bioavailable Vitamin C that will not irritate the stomach and works best when combined with bioflavonoids. Some double-blind research supports the use of bromelain, derived from the pineapple, to treat sinusitis and asthma (by reducing the thickness of mucus).
Stinging Nettle
For several decades, naturopathic physicians in the United States have used stinging nettle leaves to stimulate the immune system, reduce inflammation, and treat allergies (including hay fever). As an antispasmodic and expectorant, it can also treat coughs. In clinical practice, this writer has thus recommended 300mg, 3 times per day, to stop a runny nose and prevent itchy eyes and sneezing.
