The 411 On CBD For Allergies

May 11, 2021

With spring blooming, allergy season is in full swing. While CBD is known for its many benefits, what many people don’t know is that CBD therapy, which reduces the release of histamines, can actually help alleviate seasonal allergies. Did you know that histamines are chemicals the immune system produces to help the body get rid of allergens? Regulating your immune health through regular CBD usage can lessen the chemical being released, which in turn can provide you with (much needed) relief. We chatted with Calyx Wellness founder Danielle Blair to find out more about CBD for allergies. —Vita Daily

Hi Danielle! As we get into the heart of allergy season, how can CBD help our symptoms, how, and why does it work well?

CBD can help alleviate seasonal allergy symptoms by reducing inflammation in the respiratory tract. Research also suggests that CBD may prevent the release of histamines in the body which are responsible for symptoms such as itchiness, sneezing and runny nose.

Which allergy sufferers is CBD appropriate for? Is there anyone who should exercise caution with or not use these products?

CBD can be a great alternative to over-the-counter antihistamines used by those suffering from seasonal/pollen allergies. CBD is well-tolerated, safe and non-addictive however it can interact with certain medications by inhibiting the cytochrome P450 group of enzymes. We always recommend consulting with your healthcare provider if you are taking any other medications.

Can you recommend any products specifically?

Our tinctures offer the widest range of doses as well as the quickest delivery method to the body while our slow-release capsules provide a familiar and convenient format, available in 25mg or 50mg doses. For rashes and skin irritation our CBD creams provide relief through a rich, non-greasy formula enhanced by essential oils.
