I told you I'd send it again when it ramped up. Well, it's properly ramped up now, hasn't it ?
Pollen everywhere, we've had a load of messages from people who started the stack back in April, saying it's working.
We've also had a load from people who didn't start it and are now suffering. Hence, this email is being sent again and adjusted for reviews for each herb.
Hay Fever Guide
Hay fever, why you get it? What's going on and how to defend against it.
The UK spring/summer. One minute it's cold, next minute it's roasting, and you're waking up with blocked sinuses, itchy eyes, sneezing your head off, and wondering what's going on.
Hay fever season.
Most people just reach for antihistamines (loaded with nasties). They dull it a bit, but they don't actually fix anything. And if you've taken them before, you'll know you don't always feel 100% yourself on them either.
The thing is, hayfever isn't really about pollen. It's how your body reacts to it. Your immune system basically sees something harmless and decides it's a threat. So it dumps histamine.
That's what gives you:
- sneezing
- runny nose
- itchy eyes
- irritation everywhere
So if you only block histamine, you're not fixing the reason it's happening.
What you actually want here is a proper "inside-out" stack that targets what's really going on:
- Histamine release
- Inflammation
- Immune overreaction
- Mucus / airway irritation
Clean Nettle: helps block histamine response
Robert L.J. (15 May): "Been taking these for two weeks massive difference in my hayfever symptoms. Highly recommend, thank you."Caroline D. (12 May): "I have been taking the nettle leaf tablets for the run up to the hay fever season for me which is when the Plane trees start producing pollen, a nightmare near me in London. Last year I took them and it worked for 95% of the season and hoping for the same this year. So far not a sniffle."Tricia L. (7 May): "Didn't want to take Piriton or similar drugs which leave me drowsy so have given Nettle leaf a try. I have to say apart from the odd sneeze still, no more stinging itchy eyes and I am alert and chatty when out walking."
Clean Quercetin: stabilises mast cells (this is key)SA (9 May): "I bought this around 10 days ago for my hay-fever. After the first day taking it I could feel a huge difference, my streaming nose had virtually stopped, the stinging eyes were no more. I can not recommend this enough for hay-fever sufferers."Lynn J. (14 May): "I have been taking Quercetin for about twelve months now. I'm asthmatic, and suffer from seasonal allergies. What a difference this supplement makes. I can breathe so much better, and really notice if I miss a day."Sarah P. (20 May): "Have ordered the stack for hayfever, and although I've only been taking it for a week, I have every confidence in the quality of the product, that it will be effective."
Clean Vitamin C (Natural): natural antihistamine + antioxidantL P. (21 May): "I've been taking prescription antihistamines every day all year round, since I was a teenager, I'm now 65. Last year I decided to question that unchallenged behaviour and stop taking them. I was ok until this year's pollen started up, then I got all my symptoms back.
Itchy eyes, nose throat, ears, sneezing, coughing. I ordered the hayfever stack because I'd been very pleased with previous orders of Vit D. I have found that Clean Vit C on it's own has dealt with all of those symptoms. I'm much happier taking BS products than medication."
Clean NAC: helps break down mucus + supports glutathioneDeborah (4 May): "I started taking NAC last year to try and combat my hay fever, as directed through an email. The combination of NAC, nettle leaf, vitamin C and quercetin seemed to be the answer and I did not suffer from itchy eyes, a huge breakthrough. I have spent hundreds of pounds with BS and do not regret one penny."steven w. (27 May): "Read reviews as usual for these, seem to be good as less sniffles, sneezing, coughing than normal, feel bit more positive about everything oddly so will keep ordering and taking these."
That core stack works for 90% of people.
LEVEL UP
1. Immune modulation (calm the overreaction)
Most people miss this completely. Remember, hayfever is an overreactive immune system.
Clean Reishi (Poly 50%, Triter 2%): helps regulate immune responseDave (14 Mar): "Just finished my winter stack which I run from beginning of Sept to end of Feb. Not had a sniffle, cough, cold or any other winter illness that afflicts the entire office (I'm 53). This is the second year on the bounce ailment free and it's not coincidence. I run Reishi and cordyceps as staple mushrooms each day."Trish W. (19 Apr): "Just started my third month on the Reishi mushroom supplements and can honestly say they have been an absolute game changer for me. Massive increase in mental clarity, motivation, work productivity and just an all-round sense of wellness within the first week of taking them."
Raimonda C. (28 Feb): "Very happy with my purchase of turkey's tail mushroom. This is not my first time ordering from this company. Love that the ingredients are always clean and no unnecessary fillers."
2. Inflammation control (why symptoms feel brutal)
This is what reduces:
- itchy eyes
- sinus pressure
- throat irritation
I have heard that your body produces an auto immune response to pollen in the way of itchy eyes and all hay-fever symptoms, now I know this is true. No more drowsy hay-fever tablets for me. Can't thank you enough British Supplements."
MC (26 May): "Very happy with the quality of turmeric, it's kept colds and illnesses at bay."
Clean Boswellia: particularly useful for respiratory inflammationIrene S. (19 May): "I have been taking Boswellia for sometime and it helps very much with keeping colitis and IBS symptoms at bay."Lynn H. (18 May): "Started taking these instead of turmeric and to be honest I feel better off these than turmeric. I know supplements taken differ from person to person but these have helped no end to reduce it."
3. Airways + breathing support
Everything just feels a bit more open, easier to breathe, especially when your airways are irritated.
Corinne (26 May): "Very fast delivery at a reasonable price and good supplements. I had a little noise when breathing in the evening, now it's gone. Thank you BS, you're doing a great job."
Helen (25 May): "Amazing results for my extremely chesty husband, noticing a tremendous difference in a week."
D.F. (13 May): "My husband has been taking Lungwort for a couple of months after being told he has to take antibiotics daily for life. The side effects are constant mucus, making him cough every time he speaks and in between too. This is now cleared up which is a massive relief to both of us."
4. Barrier + histamine control (advanced layer)
Mrs W. (26 May): "I never realised there was such a thing as 'clean' supplements until I was having so many issues with those I bought in supermarkets and a friend said to me to look into them. I was amazed at the difference. No more gut pain in the hours after taking them and no more 'allergy' type symptoms. Zinc is the 3rd one I've tried and so far after 3 weeks I can feel the difference."
Clean Magnesium Glycinate: helps calm the nervous system (stress makes allergies worse)Kelly B. (20 May): "Bought magnesium to help regulate my nervous system and help me get to sleep easier postpartum, definitely seeing quick results. Love that the company uses clean ingredients free from unnecessary binders. I've used other magnesium supplements previously for sleep with no positive impact on sleep so pleased these are doing the trick."
ASE: (Dec) "I was struggling with nervous system regulation and poor sleep. Magnesium Glycinate changed all that for me. Have recommended onwards, several times."
5. Gut (very underrated, your second brain)
Your hayfever doesn't start in your nose, it starts in your gut.
Just didn't feel as good for weeks after. Decided to brave the cost and ordered one month's probiotics. Life changing! Happy every day without fail. Will be a lifelong customer of these for sure."
Suzanne M. (17 Apr): "Have been using these for a year and they are the only ones that work for my IBS. Strongest and purest on the market. Thank goodness I found them!"
So instead of just masking symptoms, you're doing a few simple things at once:
- Calming histamine
- Clearing mucus
- Opening the airways
- Reducing inflammation
- Helping your immune system stop overreacting
Can you see snake oil more clearly now? You can't fit all of that into a wonder pill or wonder spray.
You need high doses of each, plus you're stacking side benefits. The amount of emails we get saying "I took this for X and now it's also helping with A, B, C" as well, life-changing for lots of people.
Oh, and one more bonus quote that came in this month, from Anita J. on the Lungwort page:
"The best thing though is the nettle! I used to have the worst hayfever. In past tense! 3 years ago I would sneeze profusely with my eyes watering, nose runny, eyes itchy and red. I couldn't be outside for 5 minutes from May till August.
It was hell. My yoga teacher asked if I tried nettle, with it being a natural antihistamine. I ordered some nettle from BS and I've never looked back! For the first time in over 35 years I enjoyed the summer!"
That's what we're talking about.
You can stack this however you like. If you've got friends or family who suffer with it every year, send this their way, it could help them.
