Do you or someone who love suffer from seasonal allergies?
Do sinus allergies limit your
enjoyment in the great outdoors? You can take an over the
counter or prescription
medication—but as you already know those can leave you
groggy and nauseated. But
what is the allergy sufferer to do?
Allergies—A Closer Look at What Causes Them
Most allergy sufferers think they know what causes their
wheezing and sneezing. They
will point to a specific plant, food, or animal. ‘I am
allergic to that,’ they will say. But
allergies are much more complicated than that.
Our immune systems are in charge of beating back bacterial
and viral invaders.
Sometimes, though, our immune systems mistakenly see
substances such as pollen, dust,
or animal dander as a form of viral or bacterial invader.
Then the body starts the
wheezing, sneezing, other symptoms we know all too well in
an effort to get rid of it.
This isn’t a serious immune system dysfunction, but it is
fairly annoying to the sufferer.
Brown seaweed Spells Relief
Researchers at the Department of Agriculture at Ryukyu
University in Japan have found
that fuciodan—a key component of brown seaweed called Limu Moui by the Tongans—works in
several ways to help
boost positive immune reactions in the body. The nutrient
fucoidan can stimulate the
production of interleukin 12 and interferon-fA. These in
tern can suppress the
overproduction of IgE, which is largely responsible for many
allergy symptoms.
We aren’t going to get too technical here, but it is
important to understand how IgE
affects your allergy symptoms. IgE occurs naturally in your
body. It is thought to be
responsible for killing parasitic infections. Normally we
only have a tiny amount of this
immunogobulin in our blood. Researchers don’t fully
understand how it happens, but
certain substances trigger the over production of IgE. IgE
starts attacking substances that
aren’t parasites, and you notice the effects as hay fever,
asthma, etc.
Limu Moui Can Put You Back in Balance
It would make sense, then, to limit the production of IgE to
normal levels. Fucoidan
stimulates the production of natural killer (NK) cells in
the immune system. Think of
these as wolves, and the extra IgE as deer. When the two are
in balance, the environment
is in balance. There are exactly as many deer as an
ecosystem can hold. If there are too
many deer, everything suffers—just as you suffer when you
have too much IgE.
The great thing about Limu Moui—and its very
digestible key component
fucoidan—is that it’s a natural remedy. It’s food. Unlike
synthetic supplements, you can’t
overdose on it. It has no known side effects. The people on
Tonga and other Asiatic
communities have been using it for over 3,000 years. And
because it is food, it is full of
other vitamins and nutrients that will promote your health
in other ways. You may be
seeking a treatment that will give you some allergy relief,
but along the way you will
notice that Limu Moui will promote better health in
general. When you use a
product that is made of live, whole food ingredients, you
will get the full benefit of what
fucoidan has to offer you.
Limu Moui is not a medicine or a drug. While it can promote wellness, it is not a cure. Do not use
this or any article as a substitute for medical advice. Consult your doctor.
