The Hay Fever ‘Get Your Sanity Back’ Kit
This kit consists of Lung Health (formerly Allertrex), Oxylift, and Liposomal Quercetin and Vitamin C (HistX) – Combines the three products described below with a 10% discount when purchased together for a cumulative effect. Although this would be the subject an entirely different newsletter, it’s worth being aware that this kit above can help with all respiratory and viral disease, and inflammation throughout the body, whether it gives rise to hay fever or any other inflammatory challenge. So it’s not ‘just for hay fever’
Notes:
– The branding of Liposomal Quercetin and Vitamin C (HistX) may vary, as Lipolife product labels are currently in the process being given a new look. The same for Lung Health / Allertrex. However the products will be the same whether they have the old or the new label.
– We think it is better to take Oxylift a couple of hours (or more) away from Vitamin C supplements for best results.

Here is a bit more about its individual components
1. Lung Health – a dedicated botanical for allergies and breathing difficulties.
Originally marketed as AllerTrex, and just recently renamed “Lung Health”, this supplement is brought to you by Global Healing (GH). It is a blend of powerful botanical ingredients and essential oils that support normal function and cleansing of the lungs, sinuses and respiratory tract. Contains 1 fluid oz. The suppliers web site has over 400 reviews for this product, and we will re-publish a few of them here (based on the old name, as it has only just been changed).
Doc said I have emphysema. He said “not really bad” when I asked how bad is it? After long time chronic bronchitis, 3 rounds all different antibiotics, followed by 30 days of another, miraculously I found this. This product, along with a Himalayan salt pipe, almost all wheezing and congestion is gone. Amazing. I have been sick for over 3 years. I almost feel brand new. Won’t be without this product…get it now if you want to enjoy getting off inhalants. Amazing stuff. Thank you. I am 73.
My 3 year old daughter was given Albuterol Sulfate in two different forms by her doctor to stop wheezing. Each time my daughter would have a terrible skin rash or act out of control behaviorally only for the wheezing to return. I discontinued the Albuteral Sulfate and began my search for something natural that would strengthen her lungs. I found “Allertrex”! The name was very catchy. I called to inquire if the product was safe for my child and to my surprise a very nice man answered the phone and addressed my concerns beyond my expectations. Within a few days I received my order of Allertrex and gave it to my daughter as directed on the bottle. After only two doses, NO MORE WHEEZING, even while she slept! She also likes the taste.
It may sound contradictory to say that I’m health conscious and in the same breath, say that I smoke, but that’s life. Most of us are guilty of some habit or another that isn’t healthy. I quit smoking for several months more than once and missed it and started back. The last time I started smoking again, I said I would only smoke organic tobacco and that’s what I’ve done – about 10 a day is all I want. I started using AllerTrex in the hopes of counteracting the smoking. I am pleased to say that my lungs work fine and I do not have a “smoker’s cough”. I work out and also walk and my lung capacity has greatly improved since I started smoking organic cigarettes and using AllerTrex regularly. I’ll keep using it and I intend to keep smoking too!
2. Oxylift
How can Oxylift help hay fever and asthma?
It’s simple really. When the mucous membranes in our noses our noses, throats, ears and lungs are properly oxygenated, they are better able to operate effectively and healthily. As a result of this, they are less susceptible to inflammation and discharge. For some people, Oxylift also has a decongesting effect and so even if you are totally clogged up, it may provide relief from the discomfort of hay fever and asthma.
It’s not all good news though, as some people need to take much higher than the label dosage for relief. So if the 7 drops 3 x per day recommended on the label isnt working, we suggested going up to 3 x the label dosage and seeing whether that works.
A customer testimonial on hay fever
I wouldn’t want to be without this product! I’ve been taking it for a few years now and to be honest I can’t remember what prompted me to start, but one very noticable effect was that my grey hair went back to its original colour! I can only imagine all the other benefits if it does that! Seriously, I have good energy levels, my hay fever has gone, I very rarely get colds and when I do I up the dose and it goes quickly. Because of my lifestyle, I tend most days to just take it in the morning. I think I had in my head that you should take it on an empty stomach, which is a challenge, but I think that may be wrong so I’m going to try for three times a day, I just have to remember to take it with me when I’m out!
And here is another one
Have been taking this supplement for a number of years. Has helped my asthma symptoms, reduce severity of allergies and hayfever, given me more energy. It tastes lovely and hardly notice the flavour mixed in a glass of water. Not had any adverse effects especially since I have a sensitive stomach and normally react to many products.Would definitely recommend.
We receive many reports from customers on how they have been helped not just with hayfever but with other problems connected with some kind of congestion. A poignant example concerns one lady who phoned us and related a quite remarkable story concerning how her husband had been “cured” of sleep apnea. (We put the word “cured” in inverted commas as we do think our products “cure” anything. We believe they enhance health rather than “cure” disease).
3. Liposomal Vitamin C and Quercetin (Hist X)
Please note, the branding of this product may vary, as Lipolife product labels are currently being given a new look.
Combining Vitamin C and Quercetin in a liposomal form, ensures almost perfect absorption as a result of the unique and industry leading liposomal process discussed in previous newsletters. Try the label dosage, and if that doesn’t work, again you can try 2-4 x the label dosage when the pollen count is high and see whether that helps.
Vitamin C and allergies
Vitamin C can be very useful for relieving hay fever. This is because of its anti inflammatory properties (yes, Vitamin C is not just for boosting the immune system when you have a cold or flu). But it usually needs to be taken in quite high dosages to relieve allergies – a friend of mine finds that 10-15g per day works for him. In the Liposomal Form you don’t usually need as much to accomplish the same thing but as I mentioned above you can take more if necessary. A few times per day can be useful when Hayfever symptoms are bad.
Quercetin and allergies
Quercetin is a an antioxidant particularly known for being highly anti inflammatory. It is found in apple skin, black tea, onions and a number of other foods. With hay fever it is thought to work by preventing the release of the inflammatory chemical histamine from immune cells called mast cells. Histamine is the molecule involved in allergic symptoms such as sneezing and itching.
When I was writing the previous incarnation of this email (written May 2019), I found a nice little article on Vitamin C and Quercetin for hay fever in The Daily Mail which extols the benefits of taking the two nutrients together.
Other products that can help with Hay fever
MSM capsules or MSM Powder (nutritional sulphur), hay fever and allergies
Renowned nutritionist Patrick Holford states that “MSM has so many benefits for allergy sufferers that it’s hard to know where to start”.
Stanley Jacob, M.D., in his book “The Miracle of MSM”
I have seen hundreds of allergy cases clear up with MSM, including my own. Years ago, I experienced the typical miseries of a seasonal grass-pollen allergy. From mid-April to mid-July, I required the usual antihistamine relief. In those days, the antihistamine medications often created a side effect of drowsiness. Today, they are less likely to do that. But way back then, it was a price you paid for relief. If I didn’t take medication, my eyes burned, my nose ran, and I developed nasal congestion, making it difficult to breath through my nose. Often the symptoms would persist throughout the day.
I started taking MSM more than twenty years ago, and it relieved my problem entirely. No eye irritation. No runny nose. No congestion. No problem at all through allergy season. I have continued to take MSM for all these years and have not had to resort to an antihistamine even once.
My son Stephen, who is now 46, developed severe pollen allergies about ten years ago at just about the same age that I did. His hayfever came on so strong that he had to take time off from work. Stephen had constant sneezing. His eyes reacted terribly. When this happened, I recommended he start taking MSM.
Stephen says the following about his experience with MSM: “I took about a gram. Within a few days there was a marked decrease in severity, and my condition continued to get better, although I was never completely free of symptoms. After that I started taking MSM every year from the middle of May through July. I could basically control the symptoms although sometimes the pollen was so bad that I had severe attacks and couldn’t work.
“In time I learned that if I started taking the supplement well before the start of allergy season and also doubled the dosage I could get even better control. I now have about 65 percent relief, I would say. Even this past season, which was extremely dry in Portland, I did quite well. I haven’t had to take any time off from work for about four years thanks to MSM. I know I would do even better if I increased the dosage but when I do I get some intestinal reaction. My father and a lot of other people I know can take much more than I can. That’s just my particular comfort zone.”
For some individuals, 1 or 2 grams twice daily may be enough to bring pollen allergy symptoms under control. Others may require 3 or 4 grams twice daily. In general, relief is usually obtained within a range of 2 to 8 grams a day. Always start with a lower amount of MSM, and increase your dosage slowly to avoid the possibility of gastrointestinal discomfort. Should you develop any discomfort, such as increased or loose stools, just reduce the dosage.
For the common pollen variety of allergy you may not need a very high dosage. In some resistant cases, you may have to double the dose, and even double it again. Do this slowly. When you reach the effective level, you will notice rapid relief of allergic symptoms.
I have often been asked the question, “What if I keep increasing the dosage and the allergic symptoms don’t go away?” My answer is always the same: “Nobody bats a thousand.” It just doesn’t work for every person. But it works for many. In pollen allergies it works for most.
For best results, take the MSM in divided doses during the day. My recommendation is to take your doses in the morning and early evening. The evening dose is important because pollen tends to accumulate in the nasal passages at night and thus upon awakening you experience sneezing, coughing, and burning eyes. MSM taken in the evening will often prevent this from happening. But don’t take it too late. It may give you energy and keep you awake.
The following chapter of the same book is devoted to MSM and relief of asthma. Whilst we do not have space to quote at length in this article, suffice it to say that Dr Jacob’s maintains that MSM brings wonderful relief for this related condition too.
Probiotics and hay fever
One fifth of the population are allergic to birch tree pollen1. OptiBac Probiotics For Daily Wellbeing Extra Strength contains L. acidophilus NCFM® and B. lactis Bi-04. A recent clinical trial2 has shown that this specific probiotic combination reduced the symptoms of nasal irritation in birch tree pollen sufferers. Don’t suffer this spring, get yours now!
Each capsule provides 20 billion live probiotics.
This product may also help those with a severe imbalance of good and bad bacteria in intestines for example: –
- Those on long term antibiotics
- Those who suffer from conditions such as IBS, or IBD (eg. Crohn’s Disease)
- People with skin conditions such as eczema or acne
- People with busy lifestyles
Curcumin – Up to 70% relief?
A 2016 article in Annals of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology conducted a human trial of the effects of curcumin on a group of 241 subjects who received either oral curcumin or placebo over the course of two months.
The researchers used nasal symptoms and airflow resistance (to measure how much air was moving through the nostrils) to determine the therapeutic effect of the curcumin. At the end of the study, those subjects who received the curcumin showed reduced signs of sneezing and runny nose, as well as less nasal congestion.These symptoms were reduced by approximately 70 percent and persisted after the trial had finished3.
Diet
Milk products and alcohol should be strictly avoided if you are a hay fever or asthma sufferer. Avoiding wheat often helps too as does avoiding smoking. Drinking lots of plain, pure / filtered water also tremendously helps summer allergies.
