Are you currently experiencing a stubborn sinus infection? Below we will cover some supplements and home remedies that may help you get some relief:
Supplements
- Beekeeper’s Naturals has several products for sinus support. The natural secret in these products is propolis. Propolis is a combination of tree and plant resin made by bees to protect the hive.
- BEE&YOU also has sinus health products that use propolis as a main ingredient.
- Nature Made Immune & Respiratory supplement blends vitamin D3, vitamin C, and EpiCor® together for a powerful immune support product.
Home Remedies
- Steam your face! Steam will help moisturize your sinus passageways and soothe the sinus tissue. A hot shower will do the trick and you can even add a couple drops of essential oils, such as eucalyptus oil, to help open the passageways even further.
- Eliminate dairy products! Believe it or not, casein and proteins in dairy products may trigger allergies which can increase mucus production and add to the congestion.
- Stay hydrated! Staying hydrated will help keep your sinuses moist and overall help you feel better.
- Try some yoga! Consider a Supported Reclined Cobbler’s Pose. This pose will provide benefits to help you feel better without putting too much pressure on your sinus.
