Seasonal allergies, commonly known as hay fever or seasonal allergic rhinitis are common conditions that can occur to anyone. These allergy symptoms happen during certain times of the year, usually during spring or summer when trees, grasses, and weeds release pollen into the air. Common symptoms of hay fever are congestion, sneezing, and itchy, watery eyes.

When we experience seasonal allergies, the immune system of our bodies thinks of pollen particles as invaders, also called “allergens.” As a response, our bodies release chemicals, including histamine, into the bloodstream to defend against them. It is the release of chemicals into our bloodstream that causes allergic reactions.

While seasonal allergies do not pose a serious threat to health, they can still impact your life negatively. We list a few home remedies to fight seasonal allergies:

• Taking vitamins and supplements to give your immune system a boost
• Trying a healthier diet. Avoid junk foods and incorporate probiotics into your diet
• Cleaning the air and your immediate environment
• Taking over-the-counter decongestants and antihistamines
• Using nasal corticosteroid nasal sprays to improve nasal symptoms
