Allergy
Airborne allergens (dust, pollen, molds, animal dander, etc.) and certain food allergies (dairy, wheat gluten, etc.) can trigger symptoms such as red, itchy eyes, sneezing, skin rashes, wheezing, sore throat, runny nose, fatigue, and irritability. Allergies create a state of wide-spread inflammation (swelling) in the body which can lead to infection. Inflammation weakens the immune system and allergic reactions deplete trace minerals. Supporting the body with antioxidants, essential fatty acids, bioflavonoids, trace minerals (such as those in kelp), and specific herbs and enzymes can provide powerful allergy and respiratory support.

Vitamin C
Vitamin C plays an important role as an antioxidant and immune enhancer. Deficient levels of Vitamin C are correlated with a greater incidence of asthma and allergies. Regular consumption of Vitamin C is recommended to help reduce circulating histamine levels and inflammation associated with allergic reactions. Pathway SYNERGY C PLUS is an advanced comprehensive product. This unique formula contains multiple Vitamin C forms plus powerful helper nutrients for added anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects.

Optional Products for Allergy Support
Bioflavonoids
Bioflavonoids are antioxidants found in many fruits, vegetables, and medicinal herbs. They work alongside Vitamin C to enhance its absorption, as well as support the structure of small blood vessels and strengthen connective tissue. In particular, quercetin is a key bioflavonoid that can help inhibit the release of histamine and other inflammatory chemicals. Pathway QUERCETIN PLUS contains a healthful blend of 500mg of quercetin, plus rutin, and grape seed OPCs.

Proteolytic Enzymes
Proteolytic enzymes, such as bromelain and papain, have protein-digesting capabilities. They can be helpful in reducing allergic reactions that are triggered by foreign proteins, like those caused by pollen, milk protein, and animal dander. Pathway PROLYT contains a blend of full-strength enzymes, naturally extracted from fruit, in addition to the bioflavonoid quercetin, and grape seed OPCs.
