Oak allergy sufferers who live in South Texas are well aware of the large quantities of pollen that oaks produce and the symptoms that result. The pollen pods, which resemble little fuzzy worms, release the pollen into the air to be carried by the wind and the pods accumulate on the ground.

During the oak pollen season, the effects of the pollen are everywhere, with cars and windows covered with the orange-brown film the pollen creates. Even pavement where the spent pollen pods accumulate will get stained brown. Those suffering from oak pollen allergies can experience severe reactions. Massive sinus drainage, watery eyes, sneezing, and/or coughing will develop that can defy almost any allergy treatment available, at least until the oak pollen subsides.

Severe oak allergy reactions can motivate sufferers to turn to every remedy they can think of, including drastic measures like sterod injections. Some will decide to handle the situation once and for all by starting allergy shots, even though the needles are less than pleasant, without realizing that it often takes years to finally get results.

Many oak allergy sufferers will seek out natural relief from treatments like nutritional supplements, herbal remedies, homeopathy and/or acupuncture, and all of these forms of treatment will provide some degree of temporary relief for the majority of people. But what if there was a way to do more than just suppress allergy symptoms?

But what if there was another way to deal with allergies that gets rid of the problem long-term as seen with allergy shots, but gets results in days and doesn’t require getting stuck with needles repeatedly? There is in fact a way to accomplish this using “energy medicine” methods.

The most widely-practiced of these natural allergy relief methods is NAET, which stands for Nambudripad’s Allergy Elimination Technique. Dr. Devi Nambudripad is a chiropractor and acupuncturist from California who accidentally discovered how stimulating specific acupuncture meridians while being exposed to the allergens one reacts to can reset the body so that it no longer reacts to those allergens.

Since NAET was first developed in the 1980’s, other similar techniques have been developed that are more streamlined, but NAET is still the most popular. All energy-basd allergy elimination techniques are definitely strange and can seem like they are too good to be true, but in eight years of practicing Allergy and Sensitivity Elimination and Reprogramming Technique (ASERT), a newer, more efficient version of allergy elimination based on the underlyng principles of NAET, I have found it to be extremely effective on even the most severe and chronic of allergy sufferers.

Because these techniques are so strange and because I practice in San Antonio, an area where a high percentage of the population is still extremely skeptical of alternative medicine, I do the allergy desensitization on people and let them experience the results before they pay me. I use the honor system with regards to the allergy elimination procedure I use in my office – I do the full allergy elimination procedure and patients pay me after the fact when they are satisfied that the treatment was effective for them. The vast majority send me checks or call me with a credit card number, which I thik is a dramatic testament to the effectiveness of this technique.

The great part about these techniques is that the results occur quickly. In the case of seasonal allergies like those to oak pollen, symptoms may be severe for weeks at a time, so allergy sufferers seek out some form of natural allergy relief that takes effect quickly, rather than a treatment approach like allergy shots that can take years to be effective, and rather than treatments that have potentially serious side-effects such as steroid drugs. Energy-based allergy elimination provides relief within a day or two and does so without the risk of side-effects.

Better yet, the effects of energy-based allergy elimination last for several months to several years because these techniques actually get rid of the allergies, not just suppress allergy symptoms and inflammation. So, oak allergy sufferers can usually go through multiple oak seasons without any problems without ongoing treatment after going through the allergy desensitization.

Although NAET practitioners often claim that the effects of NAET are permanent, which they may be in some cases, it has been my experience that allergies can re-develop, particularly after somone is sick with a cold or flu, or suffers a major trauma during a high pollen season. It appears that the body may develop allergies in a “guilt by association” manner in which an activation of the body’s immune system and inflammatory response from something other than pollen may become associated with the presence of a given allergen, thus triggering a reaction to the allergen. In other words, if you catch the flu during a time when oak pollen is high, it is not unusual to develop oak allergies.

In any case, energy-based allergy desensitization is very much for real, and it offers fast, effective natural allergy relief for oak pollen allergies, as well as any other type of allergy (including airborne allergens, foods, and skin-contact allergies).

A lot of people have seen the online advertising and want to know if and how the acai berry works. The acai berry has gained worldwide notoriety because of its health benefits, and is believed to be a supplement that elevates energy levels and boosts the production of antioxidants in people. For thousands of years Amazon tribes have used these berries, which grow on a palm tree int he Amazon, as a remedy for various diseases and conditions. There has been a lot of recent research, and testing of this remarkable fruit reveals that acai berries are a rich source of antioxidants and work to reduce the levels of bad cholesterol in the body.
However, what the world doesn’t necessarily know is that if the berry is not processed within 24 hours of harvest, it will not be as powerful. During the first 24 hours after harvesting is when these berries have the highest concentration of beneficial components, s they must be quickly gathered and preserved on their transport trucks. The whole berry is then processed into pulp form and freeze-dried to preserve its powerful nutritional and medicinal assets. News of the health benefits of the acai berry traveled around the world very quickly, because it’s impressive that such a small fruit could have so many nutrients and vitamins that could benefit the body in so many ways.
In what ways does the Acai berry work to benefit your body?
The human body assimilates all of the the natural components that the acai berry contains, and it uses these nutrients as a means of obtaining better health. Reports have even stated that the juice from acai berries can reduce the possibility of cancer and heart disease, as it makes the body’s natural immune system more efficient. Also, modern research has also found an increase in antioxidant levels in the blood stream a couple of hours following consumption of the berries.

With over 85 million people in the country looking at loss of hair and baldness today, effective hair loss prevention techniques have become the need of the hour. The problem is most people do not know which one would be the best for them. Let’s remedy this now.

There are many ways for hair loss prevention. Which one you should choose, depends on the cause and the stage of your loss of hair.

If your hair problem is due to hormonal changes in the body like that happen in a thyroid disorder, or a pregnancy or menopause in case of women – then you do not need any hair treatment. This is a temporary problem and will get resolved automatically once the hormones settle down.

If your problem is an old one and you are already nearly bald, then I’m afraid you do not have much choice. A hair transplant is the only way now to cover up your scalp with hair. It may be a bit expensive, but it’s either that or using a wig. Which one to opt for is more of a personal choice and depends on your financial situation too.

If your hair has just started thinning and early signs of balding are visible, then you still have time to stop and even reverse it.

To know how to do that, let’s first understand why this loss of hair happens.

In this condition, the Androgen hormone in your body reacts with an enzyme and produces a substance known as Dihydrotestostrone (DHT).

This DHT blocks the blood supply to your hair follicles and starves them. The follicles shrink and lose their ability of producing new hair.

This slowly leads to hair thinning and baldness as the old hairs die off and there are no new ones to replace them.

One treatment for this you can find in the market is using pills to stop the hair from falling. These pills are effective to an extent, but the downside is they can cause side effects like infertility, impotence and depression.

A better and safer option for hair loss prevention would be to apply a 2% Minoxidil lotion on your scalp. Minoxidil is very effective at reducing the DHT in our blood and is helpful in rejuvenating the follicles.

The follicles start producing new hairs once again and prevent the possibility of baldness.

Using a lotion is also better than pills as it can be applied directly over the affected area and would be more effective.

In conclusion, choose the right hair loss prevention method and you can then rest easy knowing your hair is in good hands. For more information on how to do it right, visit my website now.
