It's mountain cedar (a.k.a. juniperus ashei, ashe juniper) season here in Texas. It's resulting in annoying allergy symptoms for my son and I- watery, itchy eyes and sneezing mostly. I've never experienced this before moving here from up north years ago. My wife and daughter seem to be spared, thankfully.
Has anyone had success dealing with this seasonal allergy, or other tree pollen-related allergy? What helped the most for you?
I've had many other improvements with a Peat-inspired diet and lifestyle, and my metabolism seems OK- 75+ pulse whenever I check, 98.6 temps after eating. I get 100+ grams of protein, 300+ grams of carbohydrate per day, 2+ grams of calcium, usually hit micro nutrient targets whenever I'm not too lazy to enter all my food in chronometer, sun and lots of light, stimulating work, enjoyable exercise/movement, etc.. This is constant through the year, yet these symptoms only show up when mountain cedar pollen counts are high.
Benedryl and/or cyproheptadine do alleviate some symptoms, but also seem to make my eyes and nose very dry, which is annoying. And they sap my concentration and focus if I take them for too long, making it difficult to get work done. Out of the frying pan, into the fire, sort of, I suppose.
Any suggestions appreciated!
