 Any fellow seasonal allergy sufferers out there? What are your fav non-medicinal hacks? One of the worst seasons I’ve had… #asknostr 
 @franny 🫂🫂 
 onions in honey for 12-24 hours 🤝 

spoon by spoon til you are relieved 🫡 
 I need more information here… I eat the onions? Which kind? 
 Here’s the recipe I use, it helps me with built up mucus & coughs, any onion works and nope don’t eat the onions, just the fermented syrup 🫡

 This was the video that taught me and then I found that recipe I sent you https://v.nostr.build/Aao4o.mp4  
 Cold, Flu or Stubborn Cough 🫡

Feel better 🫂💜 
 Thanks sleepy! 
 my pleasure! 
 I am going to try this. Seems like a good thing to put in my medicine cabinet. I love onions, so I'll eat them 
 the properties you want would have already been extracted out during the fermentation process, but they’re still yummy to eat with something else! You’re gonna love it, there’s literally a home remedy for everythinggggg! 
 I just suffer through it usually. It's bad though. 
 Ya me too. But i have a big week coming up and I just need some relief. Especially the headaches, sore throat and itchiness 
 Maybe try some herbal something? Most of those don't work for me, but they might for you. I heard that raw honey is good sometimes for it.  
 I don't have allergies too bad, but I make tea out of purple dead nettle sometimes. It has an antihistamine effect. It is a member of the mint family. It can be found all over the place and in lawns. https://image.nostr.build/f3543447d946b73ed3d1c09cc9b8bc747122c969c526ffccfb404bf231c2a72b.jpg 
 Never seen this mentioned before. I finally gave in to an antihistamine tablet today. 

The classic suggestion is local honey. Never tried it tho. 
 I have heard this too, but haven't tried it. Supposedly it is better if it is not processed too much so it has plenty of propolis in it. Makes sense propolis is great stuff 
 I found this note of @rev.hodl very helpful! nostr:note1ynj97mqe6weq3laa30x8zypt5565upjzgztfly0e67sx6u5nxduq27kxx0 
 @vrod @Eshara 
 Thank you, lovely! ☺️🫂 
 Have you tried this w success ? 
 No that’s why I’m sharing the note of rev :) but I already dried some. I don’t have officially allergy but I started to notice some irritation in the last two years, and I really want to try! 
 Understood 🫡

Hope it works! Look fwd to hearing from others after trying 🙏 
 Same here! That’s how we learn more about it. 🌿 
 If you've been thugging it out with no meds this whole season you truly are a GOAT.
I feel I'm gonna have to start shooting up cetirizine 💀 
 Vacuum the house more often, so you won’t have hay fever symptoms at home. And work in a cleanroom facility ✅ 
 Local bee pollen and honey 
 Yes they have been so bad. Sometimes my essential oil help I make blended roller and bonus: it smells good 😜 I use peppermint, frankincense and lavender 
 Have you tried seeing a good homeopathic practitioner?
