In this video, functional medicine nurse practitioner Lori Esarey, MS, APRN‑C, shares her experience treating seasonal allergy sufferers in her Florida regenerative‑medicine clinic. She explains that histamine drives common allergy symptoms such as congestion, sneezing, itchy eyes, and sinus pressure, and that many patients experience drowsiness and fatigue from conventional antihistamines. Esarey recommends a natural supplement, Aller Defense from Red Nutritionals, which combines a highly absorbable form of quercetin, stinging nettle, and antioxidants to modulate histamine activity, reduce oxidative stress, and calm inflammation. She emphasizes the product’s pharmaceutical‑grade, third‑party‑tested ingredients and outlines a dosing protocol: a two‑week loading phase of two capsules twice daily, followed by a maintenance dose of one capsule daily, with the flexibility to increase dosing during high‑symptom periods. The speaker positions Aller Defense as a proactive, science‑based alternative that can help patients transition off pharmaceutical antihistamines, improve sleep, and support overall respiratory health.

Hi, I'm Lori Esarey MS, functional medicine nurse practitioner. I've worked years in the regenerative space in a brick-and-mortar clinic, and I live in Florida. And so as a result of that, I get a number of clients that come to me struggling with seasonal allergies like congestion and sneezing and itchy eyes and sinus pressure and itchy ears and watery eyes, all the things. And did you know that histamine, which causes all of those symptoms and inflammation, are often at the root of those symptoms? So I wanna talk to you about a product that has helped a multitude of my clients actually transition off of pharmaceutical antihistamines and onto something more natural. And therefore not having all of the symptoms that a lot of those products, those pharmaceuticals and over-the-counters, cause drowsiness and— Fatigue. Fatigue. And so they've been able to successfully transition off of those onto something more natural, and it is a product called Aller Defense. Aller Defense. So it is from Red Nutritionals, and it is designed to support healthy immune responses during these seasonal or ongoing respiratory challenges. Sometimes it just doesn't quit after the season's over, it keeps going. So having support like this Longer is important. It features a highly absorbable form of quercetin, and you've probably heard of quercetin before supporting the immune system. It also has stinging nettle in it and antioxidants that they work together to help manage histamine activity, to help lower oxidative stress, which causes advanced aging, and to lower that inflammatory response, which is often the result of, or your symptoms are a result of, that inflammation. It's In simple terms, it helps your body stay balanced and respond more comfortably, so you're more comfortable. Sleeping better, not having all those symptoms. And like all Red Nutritionals products, it's actually made with pharmaceutical-grade ingredients, and which adhere to strict quality standards that you can trust. And that should be important to you. That is very, very important to me. Products that are third-party tested to ensure that they meet label claim, that what they say is in there is in there, and nothing more and nothing less. And that should be something that you seek when you're thinking about supplementation. It is really, really important that you are an informed consumer looking for quality products that are third-party tested and that are quality. Thank you. So if you're looking for proactive, science-based respiratory support, I urge you to consider Aller Defense. It may very well be a really great fit for you like it has been for a multitude of patients that I've gotten a chance to work with and successfully transition them off. If you're gonna start this product, I get asked all the time is how do you start it? So typically in a product like this, you're gonna wanna load. And what I mean by load is for the first 2 weeks that you're on the product, you wanna take 2 capsules twice a day, so 2 in the morning and 2 in the afternoon. After 2 weeks, most people successfully transition into just taking it once a day. And they'll take it once a day and it will adequately control their symptoms. So if they have more symptoms in the morning, normally they'll take it in the morning. If they have more symptoms in the evening, they'll take it in the evening. Then if you go through periods of time in which you have a higher amount of symptoms again, right, maybe it's that season again that you have more of those symptoms, You may wanna step that back up again to having and taking 2 twice a day. And you can do that. That's the beauty of this particular product. You can take more when you need more and less when you need less. Again, it is not a medication. You're not on it every day. You're not required to be on it. You're on it to tame that inflammatory response and lower those allergy symptoms that really do get in the way of living your best life. Living and Feeling Well. So if you are considering a more natural approach to your allergies, I would really encourage you to consider this product. Thank you.
