All-natural supplements provide sinus relief

As common as they are irritating, sinus issues can range from minor inconveniences, such as runny noses to more serious problems, such as pressure and pain. Other health concerns are also linked to sinus issues, such as headaches, coughing and stuffy ears.

From allergies to seasonal illnesses to chronic inflammation, the root causes of sinus troubles vary, but one fact remains consistent — people are always looking for relief. There is a proliferation of over-the-counter medications claiming to provide that relief, but they tend to be accompanied by a host of side effects, such as drowsiness.

Dee Cee Laboratories’ Phytofed-DF derived from natural ingredients is designed to help people combat sinus issues without the effects of drowsiness through the use of eyebright extract, nettle extract, Echinacea purpurea extract and more.

Herbal supplements: How they can support sinus health

For those searching for sinus relief without the side effects of medications, all-natural supplements derived from herbal ingredients are an attractive alternative. Here are a handful of the top all-natural supplements to try when your sinuses give you trouble.

Echinacea purpurea extract

Derived from a flowering plant brimming with antioxidants, echinacea is a popular herb often used to treat a variety of common ailments. Many people use it for pain and migraines, but it is most commonly used as a remedy for colds and the flu.

Echinacea extract is rich in a multitude of active compounds that many claim can boost the immune system and reduce inflammation — both of which can contribute to sinus relief.

Eyebright extract

Traditionally, this herb is used in the treatment of eye disorders, but its primary benefit is its ability to fight inflammation. Because sinusitis is rooted in inflammation, eyebright extract may be effective in relieving the symptoms of this sinus issue.

It can also be used as a supplement by those suffering from other inflammatory sinus problems, such as hay fever. Better still, it does not come with the side effects inherent to most anti-inflammatory drugs.

Goldenseal extract

Another herbal extract used to alleviate sinus problems is goldenseal. It is packed with antioxidants and antimicrobials, making it a potent natural ingredient. It has anti-inflammatory properties, as well as berberine — a bioactive alkaloid.

Studies have indicated berberine can aid in the reduction of symptoms related to nasal issues, such as allergic rhinitis. In one study, researchers examined the effects of goldenseal extract on rats, drawing the conclusion that “berberine and coenzyme Q10 can usefully be employed as therapy due to their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects in an experimentally induced allergic rhinitis model.

Grape seed extract

A trend among natural ingredients used to alleviate sinus problems is their ability to reduce inflammation. A study published in the National Library of Medicine states that Grape seed can offer exactly those benefits. In the study, researchers affirm that “the use of GSE decreases the oxidative stress and helps in the reduction of anti-inflammation.”

Additionally, grape seed extract can be used to limit the growth of bacteria. Given that many sinus issues, including bacterial rhinosinusitis, are caused by infection, this particular benefit of grape seed extract makes it particularly useful in natural supplements.

Nettle extract

According to published research, one of the most potent natural sinus relief ingredients is extracted from stinging nettles. One study refers to stinging nettle extract as having “renowned pharmacological potentialities, including anti-inflammatory.”

From nose bleeds to rhinitis caused by allergies, the natural healing properties of this extract make it a must for those searching for herbal alternatives to sinus medications.

Its bioactive compounds have been shown to include antioxidants, help fight inflammation, possess antimicrobial properties and have analgesic effects. These make nettle extract a superb agent in combatting sinus issues, as well as colds and the flu.

Sinus issues are quite frustrating, causing discomfort and lowering the quality of life regardless of their severity and duration. Common over-the-counter medications may bring relief, but they are accompanied by a host of unpleasant and defeating side effects.

Dee Cee Laboratories’ nasal relief solution

With Dee Cee Laboratories’ Phytofed-DF derived from natural ingredients, patients can experience relief without drowsiness and other common complaints linked to medications. Be sure to opt for quality supplements with transparent ingredient lists from a reputable manufacturer.
