Heal your microbiome to help with allergies

The Surprising Link Between Gut Health and Seasonal Allergies

Today’s video dives deep into a surprising connection: your gut health and its impact on seasonal allergies. Most people reach for antihistamines to manage symptoms like sneezing, congestion, or itchy eyes. However, we explore the root cause—an overreactive, confused immune system.

Our immune systems sometimes misidentify harmless pollen as a threat. This leads to histamine release, which creates allergy symptoms. But why does this happen? One key answer lies in your gut microbiome.

When your gut is damaged by things like antibiotics, poor diet, or chemicals, you may develop leaky gut. This condition allows larger food particles to enter the bloodstream, confusing your immune system even more. That confusion increases inflammation—and often, seasonal allergies.

To reduce symptoms naturally, consider removing high-histamine foods like wine, beer, avocados, and fermented items during allergy season. Support your gut lining with supplements like ION Gut Support and repair it with a clean diet free from seed oils and excess sugar.

You can also rebuild your microbiome with high-quality probiotics. However, don’t start probiotics until your gut lining improves, or they could worsen the problem.

For fast relief, natural antihistamines like quercetin and stinging nettles work wonders without the side effects of traditional allergy meds. Pair them with DAO enzyme supplements to break down histamines in your digestive tract.

Finally, using local honey may help train your immune system to better tolerate pollen—especially before allergy season starts.
