Runny nose, itchy eyes, rashes, a body shaken by coughing and sneezing... Allergies are constantly increasing in our society. According to a study by the World Health Organization, it has been estimated that one in two people will be allergic by 2050. These allergies can be attributed to the environment, food, or even our immune system. However, there are natural solutions to combat these inconveniences that can quickly make our daily lives unbearable...
The blackcurrant bud:
anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic
Known for centuries as an antidote, blackcurrant is recognized as a cortisone-like anti-inflammatory. It increases cortisol levels in the blood through its action on the adrenal glands. This makes it a powerful anti-allergy remedy with effects similar to those of cortisone but without the side effects, such as drowsiness, of chemical anti-allergy medications. Blackcurrant is the most studied bud in the world due to its remarkable potency. When combined with other buds, it enhances their properties. It is therefore an ideal companion in a combination therapy.
Rosemary's young shoot:
eliminate toxins
In the case of an allergy, the liver becomes intoxicated and can no longer perform its barrier function against invaders . Thanks to its stimulating and protective action on liver function, young rosemary shoots promote the elimination of toxins and the body's natural cleansing process. Its free radical-fighting and invigorating properties help relieve the body, restoring its vitality.
Propolis:
boost immunity
Propolis is derived from propolis resin. This resin is collected by bees from the buds of certain trees (e.g., poplar). They transform it into propolis and then use it as an anti-infective agent to sanitize the hive and ensure the growth of future bee larvae. Like the buds on which it is found, the resin is rich in flavonoids, secondary metabolites known for their antioxidant and anti-allergic effects. Propolis, in the form of a mother tincture, inherits these properties, along with anti-infective (antifungal, antiseptic), anesthetic, healing, and anti-inflammatory properties.
Allergies are increasingly prevalent in our society, and the discomfort they cause makes life difficult. It is entirely possible to treat them naturally with gemmotherapy using individual blackcurrant and rosemary buds.
