im looking for heart help...this came up...i know i spelled it wrong

its the nettles that worries me

do you have to take them together?

i have a very bad ragweed allergy. i went into anaphalactic shock when being tested for it...one little drop...

i believe nettles is related to ragweed.. i also react to cnatalope...same family i guess

i have seen the Q and nettles a lot and just went on by cuz of my fear but now my fear of heart problems is bigger

I take Quercitin and Allertonic for my hayfever. I'm not a nettles fan. Quercitin is good, but takes time to build up in the system. I start taking it two weeks before hayfever season starts.

I've been taking Nettles for a few months ... found out about both when I got hives. I haven't located a Quercitin product I'm able to take. Most contain Vit C and I can't take that . . no bromelain either.

Found this one recently .. may try it next month:

I have Source Naturals. It does have Vitamin C and Bromelain, but not nettles.

Quercitin did nothing for me.

I'm allergic to ragweed to, but do great with nettles. I drink tons of the tea per day and it has cut down on allergies better than any allergy pills.

Bromelain is from pineapples I think. I read if you have a problem with papayas, you might react to bromelain too.

Here's some info:

Also, if you're allergic to ragweed. There's some info here on what to avoid. Nettles is not on the list.

I get nettles from mountain rose.
