: Recently I came to the conclusion that since I get congested sinuses every year for the past three years as soon as the windows shut and the heat turns on, I must have an allergy situation. I do got an air purifier and a humidifier. But I also would like information on natural antihistamines that really work. I take lots of supplements, but perhaps there is an herb I have overlooked. Could you suggest one or two?
Hi Susan,
I don't have any personal experience with any of the following, but I am passing on what I read. Licorice, grape seed extract, pine bark extract, and vitamin c may be helpful as natural antihistamines. It seems that vitamin c has a cumulative effect but it may take a little time until you notice the effects.
