Increase Omega-3 Fatty Acids
Individuals can increase their omega-3 fatty acids through different foods or take it as a supplement. Research shows the essential nutrient might help the body fight allergic reactions from indoor and outdoor allergen exposure. According to studies, omega-3 fatty acids reduce inflammation and may help reduce airway inflammation from allergies.
Additionally, the essential nutrients have other potential benefits, such as promoting heart health. Speak with a health provider before starting an omega-3 supplement.9Miyata, Jun, and Makoto Arita. ‘Role of Omega-3 Fatty Acids and Their Metabolites in Asthma and Allergic Diseases.’ Allergology International, Elsevier, 27 Oct. 2014, www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1323893014000100
