Special offer for hayfever sufferers

Im giving this little gadget a go it uses red light at 2 different frequencies to alter the metabolic rate of certain cells in your nasal passageways to restrict the release of Histamine. These are on the market under a different name for around 50 quid but they are less than half their normal price of 30 quid (£13.49)at Lloyd's pharmacy. As I said im giving it a go as im already on double dose antihistamine just to manage it this year so if this works ill be happy

Zing,

If you live somewhere that has farm shops and so on, take a look and see if you can find some locally produced honey (must be from local bees though).

The honey contains a form of the pollen that the bees have been collecting, which (provided you stick to honey from local bees) should be the same pollen which is causing you problems.

Try to get regular quantities of it into your diet and your body should naturally start to build up a resistance to the pollen. If you've got really sever hayfever it probably won't completely cure it, but it should make it manageable.

Cheers for the heads up mate. Zirtek is 2-for-1 at Tescos atm. I'm like to look into double-dosing as i'm not coping well with it at all this year.

I ordered some Loratadine from them last week, and they arrived yesterday. Very cheap.

Re: Special offer for hayfever sufferers

I use the other one cetriwhotsit hydroduffa lol not bought named for a long time. May actually switch though as this year so far has been bad for me. That is if this device does not work in a couple of weeks

incidentally they have a named version of the main thing I posted about for 44 quid http://www.chemistdirect.co.uk/medis...nt_1_2003.html

Re: Special offer for hayfever sufferers

Well the nasal cavity is where the histamine that we are allergic to is released into the system. I have all the symptoms from asthma like symptoms to nasal to eyes itching and it has helped all these symptoms so far
