Guardian's Nasal Allergy Reliever

On most mornings, the alarm clock would ring first, and minutes after, my household will resound with the short outburst of loud "ah-choo!" followed by the blowing of nose (or noses, depending if mom is still at home).

Apparently, this condition is called Allergic Rhinitis - a group of symptoms affecting the nose. These symptoms occur when you breathe in something you are allergic to, such as dust, dander, insect venom, or pollen. When a person with allergic rhinitis breathes in an allergen such as pollen or dust, the body releases chemicals, including histamine. This causes allergy symptoms e.g. Itchy nose (mouth, eyes, throat, skin, or any area), Problems with smell, Runny nose, Sneezing, Tearing eyes.

While there are medications available to help relieve the symptoms of runny nose and nasal stuffiness (i.e. decongestants and anti-histamines), we prefer to avoid taking pills or sprays wherever possible. But if the sneeze attacks gets out of hand, and by that I mean at least 5 sneezes per minute, then we will pop our all time favorite miracle pill - Clarinase 24hr. 

Then one day, I stumbled across a very interesting product at Guardian called the Nasal Allergy Reliever ($49.90).

This Guardian Nasal Allergy Reliever is compact yet functional, and works by emitting two specific light wavelengths into the nasal cavity. One of them works by promoting blood circulation, thus reducing the build-up of histamines that causes the allergy symtoms. The second light wavelength suppresses the cells that release histamine and thus reduces inflammation.

Pretty cool huh!

Then again, the counter suff did mention that this works for some, but there are a handful of people who says that it doesn't work.

Regardless, I bought it out anyway, and tried it out as soon as my usual sneeze attack starts.
My verdict? IT WORKS! Best of all, it doesn't hurt at all!

All in all, it is a cute and functional little gadget but makes you look a little funny because your nose lights up in red when the lightwaves are being emitted. So the best place to use it is when you're at home, and probably with your doors locked.
