DoTerra Essential Oil Support for:
Allergies
An allergy is an exaggerated immune response or reaction to substances that are generally not harmful…. just annoying.
Allergies are relatively common. Both genetics and environmental factors play a role.
The immune system normally protects the body against harmful substances, such as bacteria and viruses. It also reacts to foreign substances called allergens, which are generally harmless and in most people do not cause a problem.
But in a person with allergies, the immune response is oversensitive. When it recognizes an allergen, it releases chemicals such as histamines. which fight off the allergen. This causes itching, swelling, mucus production,muscle spasms, hives, rashes, and other symptoms, which vary from person to person.
Common allergens include pollen, mold, pet dander, and dust. Food and drug allergies are common. Allergic reactions can also be caused by insect bites, jewelry, cosmetics, spices, and other substances.
Some people have allergy-like reactions to hot or cold temperatures, sunlight, or other environmental triggers. .
A specific allergy is not usually passed down through families (inherited). However, if both your parents have allergies, you are likely to have allergies. The chance is greater if your mother has allergies.

I personally get allergy attacks in the spring which result in skin rashes along my abdomen, neck and occasionally my face & legs. As the season progresses, sneezing, coughing and itchy eyes join in. I always hated taking over the counter medication because I was always left drowsy or a feeling like my brain was swimming…. so I’m very grateful for this all natural support that has worked wonders for me!!
