DO ANY SUPPLEMENTS HELP WITH SEASONAL ALLERGIES?
Supplements shown to help with seasonal allergy symptoms include butterbur, bromelain, nettle, spirulina and conjugated linoleic acid (CLA).

Preliminary research suggests that some probiotics may also reduce allergy symptoms. When taken with a daily antihistamine, one particular strain of probiotic was found to improve ocular allergy symptoms.

Laboratory research suggests stinging nettle (Urtica dioica) extract may bind to histamine receptors and inhibit specific inflammatory processes associated with seasonal allergy symptoms.

TAKE A BREAK FROM THE GRAM        
A new study released in an adolescent medical journal found that after interviewing 10,000 children between the ages of 13 and 16 that social media does, in fact, inflict harm on the participant’s mental health. The study found girls were a little bit more hurt mentally by platforms such as Instagram and Facebook, but only by a small margin. The research suggests that social media itself doesn’t cause harm. Still, frequent use may disrupt activities that have a positive effect on the brain, such as a good night of sleep, and exercising, while increasing their exposure to harmful content and the heart-wrenching experience that is cyber-bullying.
