Season after season, I regularly remind people that when allergy season arrives, the easiest (and least expensive) solution to try first is plain old water.

According to health.com, allergies are categorized into mild, moderate, and severe classifications. Regardless of what category you might fall into this season, I suggest first eliminating dehydration as the source of your symptoms, before reaching for pharmaceutical relief.

I’ve written about why and how to do this in these past blog posts. Please read them to learn more.
