Hello. Five days ago I got unexplainable hives covering 60% of my body,as days went by i was hoping for it to go away on its own. It didn't. So like always i went to RU-vid and typed " Dr. Berg hyves" this video came up. Right away went to vitamin store, 20 mins later I'm taking my quercetin, another 30 mins later i feel like a normal person for the first time in 5 days. I was scratching myself to the point of bleeding. Thank you for being our doctor.
This stuff works like a miracle. I’m totally off the Zyrtec (which made me feel awful all that time I was taking it.) I’m taking powder Quercetin for over a week and I’m astounded at the result!
@@fz2233 It should help. Also, take Vitamin D3 if you're not already. You should be taking up to 20,000 IU a day. Dr Berg actually has a video on asthma. You definitely should check it out.
Back about 50 years ago when the old health food stores were good. A employee suggested I take Quercetin for mucus issues. I did, it worked well and still take it at times.
I've been taking quercetin about 20 years off and on for allergies. And taking it more recently on a regular basis and it really does help. Also helps with inflammation.
How does it make you feel and what does it do exactly been trying to search about it and want to give it a try have sinus issues always mucus lol 😂 let me know when you have a chance and what’s the dose and the brand your using as well much appreciated 😊
Hi Dr. Berg! I remember subscribing to your channel when you had around 100K subscribers. And now you're at 3.2 million subscribers! I'm so happy to see how your channel has grown these past few years. Your channel is one of my favorites and the information you share here has helped me tremendously in improving my health, naturally! Thank you so much for all you do, Dr. Berg! Congratulations on all your success! You deserve it! Take care! 😊
Awesome! I take Quercetin with Bromelain. I had an infection in my leg. I discovered that I have an allergy to Penicillin and broke out in a rash all over my body. I took every antihistamine I could find and what worked for me was Quercetin. I now take it daily, along with several other supplements like Vitamin D/K2... Another one that works well with Quercetin is "Luteolin". Thanks for the video and info. :-)
When I m on Keto or very low carb diets my allergies symptoms are not nearly as bad , I guess it’s because of the overall anti inflammatory effect Keto/low carb has on my body .
Eating meat is not the reason why you feel allergy relief. Sugar is one of the components of mucus and an excess amount leads to inflammation thus mucus production. This video is natural remedies found in hot peppers and found in aromatic vegetable leaves.
Quercetin is great yes. At our clinic we also use 3 products for histamine and allergies: from Standard Process we use Antronex and Allerplex, from Mediherb we use Albizia Complex. Following a low histamine diet can be useful as well!
Quercetin supplements didn't help my allergies but eating red radishes worked wonders. I have 5 with my breakfast. Nothing else worked for me. Thank you Dr Berg
I learned about this (with Bromelein)along with Vit C and Vit D for mast cell activation disorder. I had to be on steroids to control the rashes. Since then, I've researched natural antihistamines, foods to avoid, etc. Thank you for sharing this.
@@ACEG123 yes they are all good. Bromelain 300 MG, from what I've read (I'm not a Dr), can enhance quercetin. The Now brand sells them together or you buy separately.
@@sosad9381 hi, no. I have a genetic connective tissue disorder called EDS or Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. My skin, joints,.. Everything is affected. Additionally, my type commonly has a comborbit or additional condition associated with it called Mast Cell Activation Disorder. Mast cells live in many areas of our body, lungs, skin, and elsewhere. Mast cells are cells that contain histamine and several other chemicals that are normally released to combat an allergy. Think of bee sting and skin gets red and swollen. However, in MCAD, the mast cells are way over reactive, or releases chemicals when they shouldn't or release too much. This can cause hives, breathing issues, drawing on your skin called dermatographia and more. I also have eczema which is very itchy and for me, can be painful. I encourage you to look up more natural ways to control allergies and listen to Dr Berg more. I've learned things I didn't learn in school (Medical field but not a Dr!). Blessings
I tried this last night. But before I ran out and buy another supplement, I decided to eat 4 medium red onions sautéed on super low heat, basically caramelized, added sauerkraut, and paprika. Ate a huge pile of it with some protein and I just slept through the night for the first time in weeks. Always up for inhaler between 1-3am due to viral induced and allergy induced asthma. I'm a believer.
I have been taking Quercetin...500 with C as a preventative against Cvoid. I'm glad the one comment suggested taking breaks from it and then going back due to possible side affects. I love Dr Berg videos and have learned so much but wish he would address possible side affects when using natural products. Interactions with prescription drugs can be a big factor and serious!
I have been taking Quercetin for 20 years non-stop. I also take quite a lot of other supplements but I do not take them all at once but spread rhem through the day
I was Corona positive two weeks ago and I was coughing badly. Onion tea help me with the cough, I could feel the difference from first cup. The tea is not so pleasant, but it's really effective.
Heard if you sliced onions & put on the bottom of your feet wrapping with plastic maybe an old pair of socks before you go to bed by morning its better. No coughing during the night. Good luck
I believe quercetin was HUGE in my long haul covid recovery. However, I’m now pregnant and see that it is not recommended during pregnancy. Sad because it was amazingly effective for me. Vitamin C is also an excellent natural antihistamine. Again, contraindicated in high amounts during pregnancy. I feel stuck with having to take claritin now
I agree with the other comment here. I'd be taking quercetin and vit c over Claritin any day even pregnant. Claritin restricts your blood vessels, i dont even think it would be on the 'approved during pregnancy' list 🤔 almost all drugstore cold meds are not considered safe 🤷🏼♀️
Moving into menopause I was getting very heavy, achy legs. I combine Diosmin, Hesperidin, and Quercetin each morning and my legs feel so much better PLUS my allergies much better as well.
My husband has had psoriasis for a long time, and the itching is getting worse. We tried Quercetin yesterday, and within half an hour of taking 1000 mg, the itching stops. For him, it's miraculous. Yet another "thank you" to Dr. Berg!! Will update if the Quercetin helps overall with his psoriasis.
I've been taking a Nature's Sunshine product named HistaBlock for about a year and it has helped me more than anything else I've tried. I am histamine intolerant and allergic to mushrooms, any fungus, anything fermented, almonds, kiwi, peaches, perfumes, and leftovers are really bad for me. This product has nettle leaves, quercetin,bitter orange fruit and bromelain. I hope they never stop making it. It's been so nice to not have itching and fluid around my brain swell as well as sinus pressure etc and not be knocked out by Benadryl. I really appreciate this product and really appreciate your information on quercetin. Thank you very much 💖
Could you please share that are you still taking Hista block I also have sinus problem especially in winter and swelling and more how can I order it I live in Canada n is it expensive?! Appreciate your help 🙏
I've been using this for years. It's amazing! I've recently found out that it also helps to reverse caffeine, too. I tried it after eating dairy-free dark chocolate, which really effects me with the caffeine, not able to use any caffeine at all, and it did seem to help a lot.
How many mg did you tak and did you notice any change to your appetite? Does it supress hunger? Did you notice any weight loss? What do you mean with the caffeine? You were able to sleep evn though you had caffeine...so it makes sleepy?
@@madlenj.4644 500mg quercetin with 50mg bromelain. I've tried many more times since i wrote my post, and it definitely works very well. I cannot touch caffeine at all. My heart pounds and i feel completely hyper. I can't sleep for days following. It's horrendous. I just need one or two 500mg capsules of quercetin within a short period of time after to counter that, and i sleep. It being great for gut allergies, hay fever, etc, it doesn't negatively affect the stomach. Quite the opposite. With gut allergies/intolerance, the feeling in the gut has an effect of feeling awful, but as if you want to keep eating. I know, sounds strange, but it's true. Quercetin stopped that irritation and irritability. It calms the gut and you don't want to keep eating. So, i slimmed down just by not feeling like i had before. Hope this is helpful. I have the sophora japonica type. It's in many things, like onions, which i absolutely cannot take.
@@angelanicholson951 wow okay so quercetine does make tired?! i hope it gives energy, i read that ..because it would transport more oxygen through the lungs. But good to know that it makes sleepy. I´m already tired all day with no motivation. I also want to keep eating but this is because of dopamine...to get more satisfaction. So i do eat a lot of apples and carrots..to prevent me from eating sweet stuff. But this is raw and too much raw also cause bloating :D so ..tricky. Yes the red onions, i heard that they contain it. I do put it in my meal every day since quit a while, but lets be honest...it dosen´t contain much of it unfortunately. I´m going back and forth with wheter i should take Quercetine, burberine or L-Phenylalanin. Thank you so much!
Absolutely helped me. I went to amazon and found quercetin supplement and took 1 first day in the midst of heavy ragweed-my nemesis. Let me tell you I felt better seriously within the hour. Thank you for all the helpful information
Stinging Nettle Leaf is another one! Started putting the Powder in Smoothies and Allergies are ALL GONE! It is Amazing! Great List Dr., will have to give some of the others ones a try
Okay I have an allergy that comes up 1:00 in the morning while I'm sleeping and last for about 2 hours and depending on what I eat it gets worse I started taking Quercetin, and within 3 days I finally can sleep all night I can't wait to try it on my allergies come August when the ragweed is at its worse. So my grandson only get stuffed up at night time but can hardly sleep because he can't breathe same thing it took 5 days of taking one tablet and now he sleeps all night, thank you Dr Berg again! He has rescued so many of our aliments that we have struggled with for years and just a simple solution but only Dr Berg seems to know the answer! We can't live without him we don't even know have a doctor he is our doctor
Stinging nettles works very well also. So does taking pantethenic acid, or vitamin B5. Straight vitamin C, as buffered vitamin C helps WITH the quercetin to help. But you really have to take these on a daily routine basis for these to work for allergies. But taking these are all good for supporting the God given immune system. Especially thru the fall, winter, cold weather months. Beta glucan 1.3.6 can prove very beneficial also. Hey, this natural stuff really works. Jean.
Istnt is so that Beta Glucan 1316 is a immunsystemstimulating supplement. So when your Immunsystem is already over stimulated for example when you have allergies or mcas isnt beta glucan 1316 counter productive.
Did you notice any change to your appetite? Does it supress hunger? Did you notice any weight loss? Why does this make sb. sleepy? I dont think it lowers cortisol, at least thats not what i was able to find through research..,, I´d like to take it but i need more energy and want to lose the last lbs to my dream weight.
@@madlenj.4644 It did suppress my appetite. I have been losing weight steadily because I cut out all sugar. I only use Monk Fruit sweetener. Quercetin with Bromelain is more than anything an immune system booster. I’m a nurse and saw many doctors treat Covid-19 very successfully with Quercetin. It stops the replication of viruses! Combined with Bromelain is better as it boosts the power and absorption of Quercetin
@@Mamarita3333 cutting out all sugar is something i can´t do, i have a sweet tooth, but respect. Luckily i don´t have covid or problems with my immune system. But does it give energy or makes you sleepy? People say tey can sleep better with it and somewhere i read it givs energy..strange....Would you recommend quercetin+bromelain for losing weight? Have you also tested burberine?
@@madlenj.4644 I take Berberine for diabetes. It works just as well as Metformin at lowering blood sugar. I’m diabetic and Berberine is wonderful for diabetics. It lowers blood sugar and protects your nerves. But no, Quercetin hasn’t helped me lose weight and it doesn’t make me calm or sleepy. I just take it as an immune system booster. I haven’t noticed it increases my energy either
@@Mamarita3333 okay so berberine is probaply more effective for loosing weight. But you pobaply haven´t tested quercetine on its own? Only always with berberine? I read both decreases AMPK -> Fat cells 👏
After trying several brands of quercetin and rutin, I concluded that Rutin was the most powerful antihistamine, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory hands down. I have 250mg of rutin + 50mg of ascorbic acid twice a day , coupled with 60mg of pyconogenol and 250 mg of bio quercetin once a day.
Cocoa is a rich source of polyphenols. Cocoa beans contain approximately 6-8% polyphenols by dry weight. Chocolate actually helps me with sinus allergies...definitely recommend giving it a try. Plain or dark choc is probably best.
Ok, now I understand the people who freaks out because they woke up planning to consult Dr. Berg's channel for something specific and find the answer had been uploaded that very day 😳
I use NOW brand. Quercetin with Bromelian, but I wasn’t taking that much, that must be why it was nit working well enough, I also understand it may be better on empty stomachs,
I don't know anything about that company but what I do know is that around 80% of all supplements are fake. Because they are not FDA approved it somehow legally allows them to lie about what is in their products. So you gotta find a company that has been verified for purity by a 3rd party. This usually means that you have to pay quite a bit more - but it also means you get what you are trying to get. I would recommend a company but I haven't searched for one concerning this supplement yet.
After 20 years of taking Benedryl I now find myself Histamine intolerant. So I stopped. Histamine intolerance really bites. So many foods create histamine in the body. So, I am not sure if it is connected or not but I would be very mindful of it and take natural remedies instead. You don't want this. Makes your food choices EXTREMELY narrow.
Kube Dog I think Benadryl is good when absolutely needed, when you are having a reaction to something, say like a bee sting, or allergy attract, but it cannot be good of day to day use, seems you could become somewhat resistant to them.
Justin Brown , Please ForgiveMyInsanity , my functional MD said they are a reputable company, and I love that they are inexpensive, and available so easily. I use that brand for many of the products I use.
It's intense, I take it with high-fat yoghurt because of low bioavailability. However I only take about 250mg-500mg, it's enough. It's hard to describe the effect, but it contributes to an overall more "normal" feeling. I originally got interested in it because it has an effect on adenosine receptors for dopamine increase.
I’ve read that you can take 1000mg per day for up to 12 weeks. I’ve stopped taking for a break and want to go back onto it as I feel better when taking 500mg a day. Do you take quercetin all the time? Thanks for any advice.
what wait. It increases dopamine? Wooow, i didn´t know!!! That would be intresting for me too. But i read somewhere i would make sleepy..hats the opposite of filling dopamine ~increasing motivation?! I wanted to take it because of weight loss and i´m torn between quercetine and berberine. So did you notice any change to your appetite with quercetine? Does it supress hunger? Did you notice any weight loss?
I’ve been taking quercetin complex since 2001 for spring allergies. In 2000 I had 3 sinus infections (or 1 that never quite went away until the 3rd dose of antibiotics) and almost entirely lost my sense of smell for a year. I had been taking prescription antihistamines and always developed infections after about a month, which I think was listed as a side effect. An herbalist suggested quercetin complex which also contains bromelain, citrus bioflavenoids, vit c. It works very well for me. Just quercetin alone was not as effective for me.
What's the brand please? I've driven myself mad looking for a decent brand and am overwhelmed by all the choice out there. I thought as natural product as possible but most seem to be dihydrate which I understand is synthetic. However, if the one you take is working well for you I would really appreciate knowing the brand. Thank you.
@@amaliagrassi6870 sorry, I just saw this. It’s Solgar brand, Quercetin Complex. In addition to quercetin, it contains some vitamin c, calcium, bromelain, citrus bioflavonoids, rose hips, acerola.
Thank you Dr Berg, about Quercetin. I have heard of it but a bit worried about taking too much stuff! I dont have asthma but do have mild seasonal allergies and histamine intolerance. I think I will try this in lower dose. I did order DAO enzyme as well. Cut out many hi histamine foods, carbs concentrating on nutrient dense foods. Its working.
@@XwhatshesaidX the biggest thing i experienced is learning to cut out high histamine foods and histamine liberators foods. 2 different lists. No canned foods. No store bought broths. Fresh foods as much as you can. Doa and quercetin are just here for back up if I'm in doubt what i eat somedays. I gave up wheat. Dairy, all oils except Avacado. Olive. And butter. No sugar. No common snack foods store bought. It helps a lot. I make fresh homemade soup. Cut carbs. Try B FREE bread sold in walmart and krogers. Or make homemade gluten free bread, biscuits. Etc. . Fruits only berries. Veges organic if on dirty list tainted too much with pesticides. Working on this last few years. Feel better. Once you feel you know what food you tolerate. You can re introduce a few if they give you problems just avoid. Some foods ok others not. I follow Dr Berg. DR Eckberg. Dr Mandel. Dr M. Hyman. Occasional videos just to stay on the healthy path. They are all great. Dr Berg very good doesn't waste time rambling. His message concise easy to understand. I also drink herb tea called organic d-tox by traditional Medicinals. It has stinging netgles in it which is good for these histamine issues. Hope that helps
Good approach but stinging netgless is high in hiatamin. Although it has many health benefits if you have troubles with histamin stinging netgless is definitely a no go but congrats when it not a problem for you then you lowered you strongly histaminlevels and issues.
@@Eflodur Not true. I had histamine allergies, but we started drinking nettle tea last year when we got the wu-flu and have been drinking 1 - 2 cups everyday since. I no longer have histamine allergies. No seasonal issues even when around the plants that used to cause it. Nettle helped, not made it worse.
@@lyndamedley4789 your diet sounds just like mine, but when I do cheat on paleo nut crackers, i have to take a quercitin afterwards b/c my hip hurts. the quercitin 500 mg as needed works in 10 minutes.
I am glad to see this video. Here in Germany they say never to take like more than 500mg or you will get serious problems. But I noticed after taking 500mg in the morning and 500mg in the evening that my Asthma got better. When I even took 500mg more, it almost healed my asthma. Now I now I can take more. Thank you
This information is so helpful for me! I suffer with allergies as well as Atopic Dermatitis. I currently live on Loritadine! I will be looking into this as I type! Thank you!
I’ve got mast cell activation, which is an ultimate histamine issue. Isoquercetin is good, and so are the following for allergic inflammation: Luteolin, olive leaf extract, and mast cell stabilizers. I’m not a doctor, just another patient who ran short of patience 😉. Boswellia, ashwaghanda, and Chinese skullcap also balance system nicely which helps. Look up low histamine diet, it can help too. Some have issues with fermented foods (vinegar and yeast) like me. Anything moldy (cheese wine) are high histamine. The older your food is, the higher the histamines are. Hope I could help.
My sister has taken 6 prunes a day for over a year, she's 76 with osteoporosis, and her latest bone density shows IMPROVED BONE DENSITY. This is amazing!
Also guys, seriously if you are having allergies: Thymus gland! It sounds gross but ancestral supplements makes it in pill form and it has made my debilitating seasonal allergies almost completely gone. And I had it bad... swollen red eyes, swollen face, etc. Give it a try... It’s amazing.
And thank you for sharing this video in particular, Dr. Berg! I stopped taking all allergy medication because the antihistamines cause heart palpitations. I'm so happy to know about quercetin. I will try it!!
@@Anonymous-sm7tq I replaced antihistamines with raw organic honey and it works very well for me. I take 1 teaspoon of raw organic honey in warm water and I drink that every morning. I no longer have any issues with seasonal allergies or rhinitis.
@@subtlegestures That is very good for you. I am still under medication and antihistamines..which is not really effective..Bilastine 20mg was quite promising on the very first few days...I hate the thoughts of doubling the dosage of my antihistamine because i dont want to cause more troubles in the future. BTW, how long has it been since discovered honey was gonna be the best remedy for u?
This, combined with zinc, has been suggested by some doctors & scientist to use as preventative against the Wu-Flu. Thank you Dr. for providing invaluable timeless education
Its excellent against viruses- I've had people taking Quercetin/Zinc/VitC/VitD3 through this pandemic and none have needed to be hospitalized. "Magic 4"! I tell them to try to get natural source C and find a D3 that has K2.
Just in time! I usually only get allergies in the spring transitioning to summer but I have them now summer transitioning to fall. Such an inconvenience 🤦🏾♀️
Quercetin is a gift from God... amazing stuff. Really helping with my histamines after an allergic reaction (from a foaming epsom bath stuff i never use). Nothing else was helping....quercetin + grapefruit juice
Problem with this is it's hypoglycemic, which you especially don't want when you're fasting. I can only take 250mg at once or it drops me into hypo when fasted.
Why does natural medicine require so many pills per dose vs over the counter medicines? I’m all for natural everything but it’s a tough amount to swallow being all natural!
Answering questions like yours is where Dr. Berg falls short. I have read the same about this flav causing kidney problems in doses over 1000mg a day long term. Dr. Berg should be a bit more tuned in to these type of questions.
Can you please explain, the outer layer of red onion? is that mean lthe dry layer or the in between one? Thank you, we follow all your education and remedies and advice.
After two years on strong antihistamines, and various supplements like quercetin, I have substituted those for Vitamin D supplements (2200 IU) - after reading an academic article suggesting Vitamin D might just support other treatments. I live at 56deg north of the Equator, and even plain old sunshine was enough for me on holidays...
WOW that is encouraging !!! I have really bad season allergy hayfever. I was about to buy Quercetin LOL but I am already taking vitamin D since 3 weeks now, hope it will work, will see in a couple of weeks :)
the supplement is out of my price range. Which of those foods pack the most quercetin bang for the buck? I can do red onion or garlic as those are cheap, but you don't go into the amount of quercetin in each of them. If all we needed to get a high dose was to eat a tbsp of chopped cilantro for example then that would be good to know. But there is no indication here of potency
I was going to ask if there were any known side effects. I find antihistamines and sinus medication to be EXTREMELY dehydrating and Im also breastfeeding. Im going to look into this further :)
Diogenes II - i'll look into all of these thanks. I didnt know there were more natural options that were effective. I've always breathed through mostly one nostril so assumed it was some type of deviation in my nose. The last few years however, in the fall, Ive noticed more of a pressure build up along with headaches. When I bent over to pick something up i could really feel it. However i didnt have any other symptoms that would indicate allergies. No nasal drip or what I would categorize as 'mucous', sneezing or anything. Seems to be the worst in fall though. I thought some type of membrane could be swollen like adenoids or something. Have tried eliminating dairy in past as well with no improvement. I'll look into these and see what an appropriate dosage would be for temporary relief and not for prolonged usage 👍🏼
Avoid sinus medication that makes your nose dry. You are not allowed to take Sudafed or Benadryl while breastfeeding. I do think that jalapenos pickled or in salsa clean the sinuses naturally and these aromatic herbs like cilantro, parsley and rosemary and red onions can alleviate symptoms. Can you stomach a hot dog with sauerkraut, red onions, and jalapenos?? Your fall allergies could be due to pollution not the Fall pollen thus you may want an air filter for your bedroom and home furnace filter that filters pollution, smog and smoke (Wal-Mart)
This is a very timely video because I’m starting to suffer from sinus headaches due to the up and down weather we’ve been having here in my city. One day, it’s in the 80’s and the next day it’s rainy, damp and in the low 60’s. I usually take a pill that’s actually meant as cold medicine for people with high blood pressure - for some reason, there’s something in it that clears up my sinuses - but I will try the quercertin.
Wow. Thank you so much Dr. Berg. My doctor had me on 3 allergy meds at once and they don't work any better than my home made allergy capsules I started making with essential oils. I shall try adding these to my regime. 😊
I got hives more then 1 years and UK dr gives me every kinds of medicines but its not work. Since i starts Quercetin tablets its like miracles. Thank you Dr Eric berg
Stuff works my naturopath put me on one called D-Hist for an allergic rash I had and the “side effect” was it cured my seasonal allergies! My seasonal allergies were like a million times worse than the rash I went to see her for so it was kind of a god send. I have to take up to 6 capsules a day to keep allergies at bay in season, if you forget to take them you can have a break through attack which sucks but there is zero sensation from taking these things unlike otc remedies. I did read somewhere that quercetin was developed by the military which concerns me as I was in and I don’t have a lot of faith in them other than destroying stuff so take at your own risk
Well, remember quercetin occurs naturally in food, so just because the military decided to make a supplement out of it doesn’t automatically make it worthy of suspicion. It looks like in this case they were trying to help personnel perform better with a natural substance. Dr. Berg did make a point of saying there are no side effects.
Cara Weston yes uranium is naturally occurring also. Look Iv been taking this stuff for over two years I have very little choice. When you’re taking 6 capsules a day you should consider the possibility that there could be long term health effects. You don’t have to agree with me but this is my view in light of the fact that there hasn’t been a long term study on its use. I used to drink tons of orange juice fully convinced that it was good for my health so Iv cultivated a certain amount of skepticism. I can say for sure that it has the ability to make my debilitating seasonal allergies go away. So I give it a thumbs up but I wish I didn’t have to take anything
Peter Fitzpatrick what the military has to do with it, as I stated, was that they were involved in developing it. I’m not saying this is some kind of smoking gun but I’d prefer if this were a natural unprocessed substance with a long history of usage as a folk remedy rather than coming from a military lab somewhere. If you don’t share my reservations good for you.
You are amazing! I watch you everyday, you help out so much. A life changer. My son has this problem and he's only 8. I'm going to try this out 😊😊 thank you!!!
I don't claim natural but methylsulfonylmethane in a heaping teaspoonful per day is extremely effective for this person, plus, it greatly reduces delayed onset muscle soreness post extreme exercise. YMMV. Note: I take quercetin and rutin as well.
Quercetin works perfecty in a combination with high-dose ascorbic acid. Quercetin alone also works, but you need higher doses. 1g of ascorbic acid plus 500-1000mg of quercetin daily works great for allergies. Rutin also can be used, but it has weaker effect and it doesnt work alone. It only works with ascorbic acid.
@@hugoshellhammer9588 im not quite sure, but i think it should help a bit. When i have a runny nose i simply heat my feet in a pot with hot water. First i use warm water and increase the temperature gradually by adding more hot water. This should last for at least half an hour. Do this every evening and it will definitely help. But after doing this procedure dry your feet, put on your wool socks and make sure your feet will be in a warm place for the rest of the night. You may also have a hot shower after this procedure and keep yourself warm when you sleep. This method works for sure.
