Let @BoironUSA Help You With Allergies & Aches/Pains this Spring!

A product was given for review for my honest opinion. No other compensation was given.


Are you fighting allergies this Spring??!!

I know I am fighting them and so are many people I know! Allergies affect more than 50 million Americans and many allergy sufferers think they have only two choices when they’re hit with symptoms—simply suffer or take an OTC medication that bears warnings about side effects. 

Fortunately, there’s a third option—homeopathic medicines. I trust Boiron’s line of homeopathic allergy medicines and I reach for them every time symptoms hit! They work naturally with my body to provide relief without causing drowsiness or interacting with other medications.
They have an exciting new product that I am loving - Optique 1® Eye Drops! These single-use drops offer soothing relief for minor eye irritation due to fatigue, computer work or airborne irritation such as ragweed, other pollens and dust. It also soothes red, dry, itchy and burning eyes often associated with allergies.It is recommended for everyone ages 2 & up and these sterile, single-use drops are preservative-free.
And if you are trying to get back in shape this Spring to get swimsuit ready or have sore muscles due to a hard workout, then I highly recommend Arnicare from Boiron too! It is my favorite product from them and soothes all my sore muscles, aches and pains!

It comes in two varieties - Cream and Gel - and temporarily relieves muscle pain and stiffness due to minor injuries, overexertion and falls. Plus, it reduces pain, swelling and discoloration from bruises.
I love this stuff and it takes away all my aches and pains within hours!

Trust Boiron this Spring with your allergies and sore muscles!

2016 is an El Nino year, but along with the milder temperatures this may mean an earlier on set of allergies this year. Our house has definitely been hit by the allergy season as well as another round of colds. NOT FUN!

Does Your City Have The Worst Allergies? & Giveaway #ScottiesSneezinSeason

A product was given for review for my honest opinion. No other compensation was given.

Do YOU Live in the City with the WORST Allergies? 

According to a recent study conducted by the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America, the top 10 cities that will experience the worst spring allergies this year are…

1. Jacksonville, MS *worst*

2. Louisville, KY

3. Oklahoma, OK

4. Memphis, TN

5. Knoxville, TN

6. McAllen, TX

7. Wichita, KS

8. Dayton, OH

9. Providence, RI

10. Richmond, VA

The itchy watery eyes and the stuffy nose are the absolute worst – but Scotties is here for you! And if your allergies get bad, try their 3-ply, or 3-ply with aloe for the extra strength you need. They are definitely getting a lot of work in our house!

Check out these tips from Chris Iliades, MD from Everyday Health for allergy fighting tips and tricks to try during sneezin’ season:

1. Wear Sunglasses to Keep Pollen Out of Your Eyes 


An estimated 35 million Americans experience hay fever caused by wind-borne pollen or mold spores. Wearing sunglasses outside can reduce the amount of pollen or spores that get into your eyes. Allergy-irritated eyes are also more sensitive to sunlight, so stylish shades may help your eyes feel better, too. "The best kinds of sunglasses to wear are dark glasses that wrap around to block as much wind pollen as possible," Dr. Hong says.

2. Ditch Pollen-Producing Indoor Plants 



"Indoor houseplants that flower aren’t likely to cause a pollen allergy, because most flowering plants are pollinated by insects," Hong explains. "But indoor plant soil can let plenty of mold spores into your house." If you have hay fever or a mold allergy, keep houseplants to a minimum and definitely keep them out of your bedroom. The biggest offenders are indoor shrubs, trees, and grasses that may produce pollens.


3. Kill Dust Mites With a Hot Wash



One of the biggest causes of indoor allergies is the dust mite. These microscopic insects love to live on your bedding and stuffed animals. Hong advises washing all of your bedding in hot water and drying it in a hot dryer to kill dust mites. Keep stuffed animals off the bed, and wash sheets and blankets at least once a week in water that's 130° F or higher to limit the effects of this indoor-allergy culprit.

4. Take a Vacation From Pollen 


Hay fever is also known as seasonal allergic rhinitis, because pollens tend to be worse in specific seasons when trees, grasses, and weeds pollinate. If you can identify your trigger season, you may be able to avoid the worst pollen exposure by getting out of town for at least part of it. The beach is a great place to escape from pollen. But let’s face it: It’s hard to take a vacation that lasts an entire allergy season, so avoid pollen at home by staying inside as much as possible when pollen counts are high, especially at mid-morning and on windy days.
