Pollen allergy problem, father and son?

My family recently moved to my wife's village where they gro everything from wheat, barley, oat to cherries and peaches. Me and my 1 year old son we are terribly affected by allergies: congested sinuses, itchy eyes or burning eyes, my throat feels like i drank battery acid. We have been taking antihistamines but we decided to stop using them to get used to the allergens. We plan to live all our lives here but it would be impossible if we have to suffer like this.



My wife's father is a beekeeper so we can eat alot of honey to help us. My question is: is it possible for me and my son to get used to the allergens by just staying here and trying to cope until we get used to the pollen or should we just go back near the sea.



Also, the house is surrounded by thoulsands of wild flowers that nobody cares to cut, actually the whole village is like that... should I cut it all down (would take me weeks)

Your body is reacting to something in your environment. Please consider the results of "NASA's Clean Air Plant Study".



"Common indoor plants may provide a valuable weapon in the fight against rising levels of indoor air pollution. Those plants in your office or home are not only decorative, but NASA scientists are finding them to be surprisingly useful in absorbing potentially harmful gases and cleaning the air inside modern buildings."



"NASA research has consistently shown that living, green and flowering plants can remove several toxic chemicals from the air in building interiors. You can use plants in your home or office to improve the quality of the air to make it a more pleasant place to live and work - where people feel better, perform better, any enjoy life more."

Reply:Bill: You aren't going to cure your allergy by eating honey. For one, you can't cure allergy, you can only control your exposure and thus your allergic reaction. You can wear masks when outside and when inside keep the windows closed and run an air filter. The usual culprits are trees and grasses, Ornamental flowers and other plants that have yellow waxy pollens rarely cause allergy, that is why eating honey will not help. Bees don't visit the plants that cause the allergies! If you want to stay there it is going to be a life of masks, air filters, and antihistamine. You might want to consider moving and just visiting.
