When doing research for the best essential oils to use that will benefit the organ systems of the body, I came across a wonderful site Dr. Fosters Essentials, who, in my humble opinion, is one of the best out there. I wanted to share some important and very helpful information with those of you who may be interested in learning about the awesome powers of flowers, plants, resins, roots, berries, barks, and the amazing miracles essential oils can perform when used correctly.

From all the work, trials and experimentation I’ve done with essential oils, I have also found these to be true, Read on for some great information:

Fighting Allergies; Immune Boosting Essential Oils, Allergen Home Spray Recipe, and Allergy Relief Blend

Allergies; img. courtesy of Getty images

Living with allergies is no fun, and can be completely miserable for those who suffer with them. Even the simple act of getting out of bed may be too much for those who have a terrible case of allergies.

And with all the over-the-counter medicines, you never really know what you are putting into your body. Some of the chemicals used may be just as bad as the allergies they are suffering with, and may even worsen some of the symptoms, and almost as bad, mask the problems so they are never really rid of the root causes completely. I think this is just another reason people are turning to natural remedies.

An Allergy is a hypersensitivity disorder of the immune system, or an exaggerated immune response or reaction to substances that are generally not harmful.

So, building up your immune system is the best way to deal with allergies. And essential oils are a great way to do just that. Essential oils can also help those who suffer from allergies get some relief, and for some, even help rid them of the allergy entirely. Finding the root cause of the allergy is your biggest asset and will eventually help lead you to dealing with the problem once and for all.

Here are a list of great essential oils that are wonderful for boosting the immune system;

Eucalyptus, Tea Tree, Rosemary, Oregano, Lemon, Cinnamon, Frankincense, Vetiver, Thyme, Savory, Niaouli, Ravensara, Peppermint, Clove, Palmarosa, Coriander, Bergamot, Geranium, and Bay Laurel.

Immune-Boost Blend

I made a wonderful Immune Boost Blend that packs a powerful punch, and really does what it says…boosts  the immune system and gives your body great tools for the fight.

Also, Read this post I wrote about allergies, you may find some good tips in there to help, See it here.

Allergen Home Spray Recipe

To make this spray, I went to a trusted company whom everyone seems to buy their products in the local grocery and found the following:

I looked up the ingredients in the most popular home allergen spray-

Clorox® Anywhere® Anti-Allergen Fabric Spray – Product Details

Ingredients include: (Water, Sodium Carbonate, Sodium Chloride, Sodium Hypochlorite).

which is basically, washing soda, salt, and bleach diluted heavily with water!

It would be simple to make your own large bottle of this home allergen spray, which would save you scads of money.

Here’s how you would make your own—In a 16 oz spray bottle (from the dollar store) you would use mostly purified water (bottle filled almost to the top with hot purified water to dissolve the rest of the ingredients) add  a little washing soda (about a TBL.) and salt (about a TBL), and a tiny bit of bleach (about a tsp.), shake well and walla! Homemade allergen spray!

Though, this does not include any essential oils for extra benefits. Which would be where you’d just add about 1/8 oz, or about a dram of E.O.s to it and shake it up! That’s it!

Allergy Relief Blend by Yellowstar Essentials

Yellowstar Essentials Allergy Relief Blend includes essential oils of;

German Chamomile, Roman Chamomile, High Altitude Lavender, Blue Tansy, Melissa-Lemon Balm, Ravensara, Juniper berry, Lemon Blossom, Cajeput, Spikenard, Frankincense, Rosemary, Lemongrass, Pine-Long Leaf, Pine Scotch, Spruce, Vetiver, and Wild Black Spruce.

To make your own allergy relief blend, gather essential oils listed above and a pipette for each (unless they have orifice reducers), and a one ounce dark glass sterilized bottle. This blend may be added to a diffuser, a spray, an inhaler, or even a few drops on a handkerchief carried around with you. If you want to add this to the allergen home spray recipe, for a 16 oz bottle (as recipes lists above) use no more than ¼ oz (7.5 ml), and ideally ⅛ oz (a dram, or 3.75 ml).

  • German Chamomile- 5 drops
  • Roman Chamomile- 15 drops
  • High Altitude Lavender, -60 drops
  • Blue Tansy- 25 drops
  • Melissa-Lemon Balm, – 20 drops
  • Lemon Blossom -20 drops
  • Ravensara – 30 drops
  • Juniper berry – 20 drops
  • Cajeput – 20 drops
  • Spikenard – 10 drops
  • Frankincense – 35 drops
  • Rosemary, – 15 drops
  • Lemongrass, – 20 drops
  • Pine-Long Leaf, – 20 drops
  • Pine Scotch, – 20 drops
  • Spruce – 30 drops
  • Wild Black Spruce- 12 drops
  • Vetiver – 25 drops

The one I sell is an 8 oz bottle of the pre-made spray with the E.O. blend and could be used as is, or could be diluted further into a 16 oz bottle to extend it. Or see other options below:

Note that the E.O. blends are pure with no dilutants added and are very concentrated, you only need a few drops at a time. Also note–to give you an idea of how potent these are, it takes over one TON of rose petals to make one ounce of rose oil. (that’s really concentrated!!!). This is why pure therapeutic grade essential oils are so expensive.

Yellowstar Essential Prices for pure E.O. blend of Allergy Relief Blend:

  • 1/8 oz/ dram size Allergy Relief Blend- pure therapeutic grade oils, no dilutants-$10
  • 1/2 oz (15ml) Allergy Relief Blend – pure therapeutic grade oils, no dilutants- $32
  • 1 oz (30ml) Allergy Relief Blend – pure therapeutic grade oils, no dilutants – $49
  • 8 oz (240ml) Allergy Relief Spray – $12
