Diet tips for seasonal allergies
1. Start your day with coconut oil
"Start your day with a tablespoon of coconut oil on an empty stomach," Batra says. Coconut oil contains healthy fats that can boost your health in more ways than one. It also contains antimicrobial properties. As per studies, coconut oil is also beneficial to your heart health.
2. Take a ginger-amla shot each day
Ginger is a common ingredient found in the Indian kitchen. It is used in the preparation of teas. Ginger contains gingerol which has powerful medicinal properties. It acts as a very potent anti-inflammatory agent especially when paired with vitamin C. The nutritionist suggests that you can have a ginger and amla shot each day. Take 30 ml of fresh amla juice and one teaspoon of ginger juice in the morning but don't have tea after this. This combination will offer you the goodness of ginger and a good dose of vitamin C.
3. Have bee pollen
"Having bee pollen helps in decreasing and inhibiting the activation of masses, which is a very important step in preventing allergies. But make sure you are sourcing it locally because it helps you create resistance to the pollen you are allergic to in your ecosystem," Batra adds.
