Fresh Freeze Dried Nettle - Eclectic Institute

Current research shows how effective freeze-dried Nettle preparations are, in the treatment of allergies. In a study conducted at the National College of Naturopathic Medicine in Portland Oregon, researchers found that 58% of the 69 patients suffering from allergic rhinitis reported moderate to significant relief from their symptoms. Freeze-dried Nettle leaves are also proving to be effective for many allergic reactions, such as allergies to dogs and cats, hay fever, and hives. For almost any allergic reaction, Nettle seems to be very effective. One often feels relief in as little as 20 minutes after taking one to three 300mg capsule of the freeze-dried leaves. In the freeze drying of Nettle leaves, the histamine and the formic acid are preserved. It is these ingredients, found in the stinging hairs, which act as an antihistamine, when taken internally. It has no known side effects, unlike many over-the-counter antihistamine preparations. It is safe for both children and adults. That which stings, brings welcome relief to many allergy sufferers. Suggested Dosage for acute symptoms: Take 2 caps, three to four times daily.
