Raw Horseradish - Natural Allergy Relief Product

Horseradish for allergies.
Are you plagued with allergy symptoms: runny nose and itchy watery eyes? Try this natural allergies treatment: horseradish (Armoracia rusticana)! Grate 1/4 to 1/2 tsp of fresh horseradish, mix it in a tsp of apple cider vinegar (aids the absorption,) and consume. If eating it straight seems harsh, hide it in a salad. Eat it 3-4 times a day until your allergy symptoms subside. Then a small dose once a month will prevent further attacks, as reported in Natural Health Secrets from around the World by Glenn W. Geelhoed, M.D.

Horseradish works as an allergy treatment because it
increases circulation and can widen sinus cavities. It's also a natural antibiotic that kills viruses as well as bacteria. Mix horseradish with garlic and you've got some potent anti-cold medicine!

Some precautions: If you're pregnant, skip this remedy. The same goes if you have kidney problems or a gastric ulcer. Eat too much horseradish and you'll give yourself a belly ache or worse. Use caution.
