Natural Allergy Relief: Take some Vitamin C

The symptoms of allergies..the runny nose, the hacking coughs and sneezes are produced when histamine (natural chemical produced in the body) reacts to allergens: dust, pet hair, pollen, etc..... and BANG! Your day officially sucks now.  But relief can be found with Vitamin C, because its a natural antihistamine.  Researchers had 17 volunteers inhale histamine and measured the levels of airway constriction.  The next day the study was repeated with 500 mg of Vitamin C, and the degree of constriction was almost 30% with more solid results being obtained after a week of use.  Breath Easy my friends.
