Doterra Essential Oils For Allergies Give Fragrant Relief


By Mattie MacDonald


Aahtiesjoe! Anybody who has ever suffered from an allergic reaction knows how debilitating and irritating (and even fatal)it can be. The sad news is that a whopping 10-30 percent of people in the industrialized world are affected by allergic conditions, and this number is rapidly increasing despite so-called mammoth advancements in science and technology. Apart from the physical and emotional toll allergic reactions take from sufferers, the economic impact is equally devastating.

What to do when the cost of doctors' visits, prescription medication, and missed days of work/school, leaves you financially crippled, yet without a permanent cure or solution? The good news is that Mother Nature knows best and guards all her secret healing potions in a magic pharmacy called plants. This is where doTERRA essential oils for allergies comes to the rescue.

The scented flowers and plants that give us so much pleasure in nature, also have potent healing qualities. Essential oils that are harvested and produced from the stems, flowers and roots of fragrant plants such as mint, lavender and lemon, are renowned for their ability to act as a natural anti-histamine and to curb inflammation due to allergic reactions.

Allergy involves an exaggerated response of the immune system to substances that it perceives as foreign invaders (allergens). These allergens are often common things such as foods or pollen that are harmless (and even healthy!) to non-allergic people. An allergic or a-typical person can be hypersensitive to one or many allergens and in extreme cases, exposure to a specific allergen can be fatal without medical intervention. Anybody can develop or outgrow an allergy at any time, but people with a family history of allergies are much more at risk. Seasonal allergies are caused by environmental factors such as pollen, smoke pollution and climate changes.

The most common allergens are pollen, dust mites, molds, animal proteins, foods and even medication. Nasal allergies affect roughly 20 percent of Americans, while between 8 - 10 percent of the population suffers from asthma. In extreme cases, such as severe reactions to a bee sting or foods like nuts and shellfish, an allergy can be fatal if emergency medical help is not given in time.

In most cases, however, allergies are more or less a seasonal and harmless nuisance that makes one feel weak, itchy or irritated. Anti-histamines in the form of creams, lotions and prescribed medication normally bring instant relief, but the frequent usage of these over long periods can have negative side-effects. Natural products that boost the immune system and relieve the symptoms without any negative, harmful side-effects, are still the best solution.

Pure essential oils that are scientifically manufactured from the magic potions found in nature's own plant pharmacy are a wonderful alternative to conventional allergy medicine. They do not contain pesticides, herbicides or any harmful artificial chemicals and best of all - they are fragrantly potent!

Essential oils have been used since the earliest times in many cultures for their medicinal and therapeutic benefits. Modern scientific studies and trends toward more holistic approaches to wellness are driving a revival and renewed discovery of essential oil health applications. Good quality essential oils can be consumed internally, or applied on certain body areas such as the bottom of the feet, back or spine for soothing relief. As long as it is a safe, quality product and one follows the instructions carefully, these natural oils are a healthy and natural alternative to conventional medicine.
