Anti-histamines will help ease your symptoms, but what about something to help improve your body's condition-a condition strong enough to have no allergic symptoms. What a concept. That's what we're really after-not a drug to control symptoms, but we would like to improve the body's immune system so it can win it’s own battles against pollens, dust, molds, etc. We want to have a body that can enjoy spring without being miserable with allergies.
