Dr. Redcross’ Wellness Tips to Help Prevent or Relieve Seasonal Allergies

1. Clean Regularly. Many allergens are in your home so be sure to clean your carpets, rugs, floors and curtains regularly. A HEPA vacuum cleaner can help as it has a special filter to trap very fine dust and allergen particles.
2. Reduce Clutter. There could be places in your home where dust, pet dander and other things are collecting. Reducing the unnecessary items can lessen the amount of hard-to-reach places dust can collect.
3. Wash your sheets and liners. Wash your linens weekly with hot water to keep down pet dander and dust mites.
4. Use air and window filters. This extra layer of protection can screen out dust and pollen.
5. Reduce mold. Clean your shower curtains, trash cans, and damp aeras with a mix of water and chlorine bleach. 
6. Keep homeopathic medicines on hand. If you lead an active life, then you don’t want medicine impacting your everyday routine. This is where a homeopathic solution like Boiron AllergyCalm can help because it targets specific symptoms of hay fever or other upper respiratory allergies without drowsiness or drug interactions.
7. Limiting your time outdoors. Check the air quality index in your area frequently. When it hits a high level, it might be time to consider limiting your outdoor activity.
