Its allergy season again! Thankfully, after a year of nutritional therapy and homeopathy, our adrenals are stronger and our allergies have been greatly reduced. Ill just leave this here in case others also find it to be helpful. Allergies. Allergic reactions usually have strong adrenal components. Most allergies involve the release of histamine and other pro-inflammatory substances. The bodys response is cortisol, a strong anti-inflammatory hormone. The level of circulating cortisol corresponds directly to the degree of inflammation in the body and the resulting symptoms of allergies. The weaker the adrenals, the stronger the effects of the allergies because the more histamine is released, the more cortisol it takes to control the inflammatory response and the harder the adrenals have to work to produce more cortisol. When the adrenals are exhausted, cortisol output is compromised, allowing unopposed histamine to inflame the tissues more. This vicious circle can lead to progressively deepening adrenal exhaustion and more severe allergic reactions. People with food and environmental allergies commonly have weak adrenal functionality. Common food allergens include wheat, corn, soy, milk, and eggs. One also can be gluten free and still have wheat allergies.
