While recently cat sitting for a friendly feline, I was reminded that I am allergic to cats. :? As I was discussing my dilemma with a friend, she mentioned an old-time remedy that has been a homeopathic favorite. So...I tried it and got great results.
It involves baking soda, a multi-purpose item that you can purchase in any grocery store. You're probably used to using baking soda in your homemade baked goods. Anyways...
Mix 1 teaspoon of baking soda with 8 ounces of water. I like to decrease the portion, so I mix 1/2 teaspoon with 4 ounces water. Mix thoroughly and drink. Do not consume this mixture more than 4 times per 24 hour period.
Drink this concoction 30 minutes prior to contact with the item causing an allergy. The natural remedy may not work as well as a prescription-based allergy relief product, but it worked well enough for me. I try to avoid using pharmaceutical concoctions as much as possible.
Anyways, next time you need to protect yourself against known allergens, try this homeopathic remedy. It's cheap, easy and quick. :)
Find interesting? Kindly share...
