Bee Pollen and Local Honey: The Allergy-Fighting Power Duo

Staff Writer

Get ready for Spring (and allergy season) with this helpful holistic information!


If you suffer from seasonal allergies, you know how frustrating and debilitating they can be. A runny nose, itchy eyes, and constant sneezing can make it difficult to go about your daily life. While there are many over-the-counter medications available to relieve allergy symptoms, some people prefer to take a more natural approach.

One natural remedy that has gained popularity in recent years is bee pollen. Bee pollen is made up of small granules that are collected from plants by bees. It's packed with nutrients like vitamins, minerals, and protein, and has been used for centuries in traditional medicine to treat a variety of ailments.

But can bee pollen really help with seasonal allergies? The answer is yes! Bee pollen contains compounds that can help reduce inflammation and boost your immune system. When you're exposed to allergens like pollen, your body releases histamine, which causes inflammation and triggers allergy symptoms. Bee pollen contains quercetin, a natural antihistamine that can help reduce inflammation and block the release of histamine.

Another natural remedy that can help with allergies is local honey. Local honey is made by bees that collect nectar from flowers in your area. By consuming local honey, you may be exposing yourself to small amounts of the same pollen that triggers your allergies. Over time, this can help your body build up a tolerance to the pollen, reducing your allergy symptoms.



I personally purchase Silver Sage Honey from my local health food store and it has immensely helped my husband with his seasonal allergies. I also like to store it in a mason jar with this stainless steel honey wand that I got on Amazon.

This product is made with pure, high-quality bee pollen and is free from any additives or fillers. It's a great way to add bee pollen to your diet and may help reduce your allergy symptoms over time.

They're packed with nutrients and can help reduce inflammation and boost your immune system. Consider giving Pure Natural Bee Pollen a try to see if it works for you!
