Allergies are your body’s way of reacting to something it sees as a threat—whether that’s pollen, pet hair, or certain foods. These reactions can show up as sneezing, congestion, itchy eyes, or even skin flare-ups. In more serious cases, allergies can cause anaphylaxis, a condition that needs urgent medical care.
At New Leaf, we believe understanding your body is the first step toward feeling better. Everyone’s triggers are different, so it’s important to identify yours—either through personal observation or professional allergy testing. Once you know your sensitivities, you can take steps to reduce exposure and support your system naturally.
That’s where the Allertone Blend comes in. Carefully created at Dr Clare’s Apothecary, this herbal supplement supports the body in managing seasonal and environmental allergies. With ingredients like Nettle Leaf, Dandelion Root, Eyebright, Chamomile, Cornflower, Marshmallow Leaf, and Bladderwrack, Allertone helps to calm inflammation and soothe the immune system. Many of these herbs are known for their gentle antihistamine and respiratory-supporting properties.
Prefer something warm and soothing? The React Tea is a beautiful herbal tea version, using many of the same ingredients for those who enjoy the healing comfort of a functional tea—hot or cold.
While these natural options can offer gentle support, they’re not a substitute for medical care. Always check with your doctor before adding new supplements—especially if you’re managing health conditions or medications.
🌿 Top Tip: Dab a little HayMax balm under your nostrils before heading out on high pollen days—it can help trap pollen before it enters your system!
