Tis' the season!
Nah, not the holidays...ALLERGIES! With pollen levels at an all time high, sneezing, draining, coughing, headaches, and itchy watery highs are wreaking havoc on some of us!
The absolute BEST way to eliminate allergies all together? Eliminate dairy from your diet. This will get to the root of your allergy issues, however, it will take time.
Now, if you want a QUICKER way to bring some relief to your nasal congestion, in addition to a neti pot, my tumeric laden beverages: Turmeric Sinus Buster Smoothie and Healing Respiratory Turmeric Green Tea, will do the trick, and then some!

So drink up turmeric, and really feel good about it!
