Natural solution:
Favor natural remedies such as black elderberry, aged garlic or oregano oil to cure infections, rather than antibiotics which unbalance the microbial flora.
5. Grains and dairy products
Grains consist of antinutrients like phytic acid, which blocks mineral absorption, and are often developed with pesticides that disrupt gut flora. Gluten, a protein found in grains, can lead to autoimmune reactions that boost mucus production in the sinuses, throat, and intestines.
Natural solution:
Check for your food sensitivity by getting rid of grains, seed oils (such as canola and corn), and fried foods from your diet for 2 weeks. See if your symptoms improve.
6. Airborne allergies
Your sinuses may create more mucus if you are allergic to airborne particles, such as pollen, pet dander, dust mites, or mold. Your body creates mucus to trap these particles and prevent them from entering your lungs.
Natural solution:
Consult your doctor to do an allergy test to identify triggers. incorporate air purifiers in your home and regularly clean areas prone to dust and mold. To reduce reactions to pollen, eat mall amounts of bee pollen to help get your immune system used to it.
