Natural Pollen & Food Allergy Relief
Before outlining remedies, it is important to understand why the immune system overreacts to harmless pollen. Multiple converging dysfunctions create the allergic soil in which seasonal reactions grow.
Not everybody will develop allergies, but if you have a predisposition, typically the result of a high level of chemical and metal toxins stressing the immune system, adrenal fatigue from sugar, caffeine, cannabis, alcohol, life stress, farm and home toxins, etc., then your body may tend to start treating seasonal pollen as foreign invaders.
Yet, pollen is actually food — potent nourishment that can be breathed into the lungs for assimilation into the bloodstream like oxygen. Pollen allergy is just another form of food allergy. The human being was designed to live partially on the nourishment from the air.
Remember the Garden of Eden? Whether partially true or mostly metaphor, the concept reveals that our earliest ancestors were not cave dwellers starving for food and having to survive on killing animals to live.
The garden air was filled with pollen, fragrances (volatile oils from flowers and trees), an abundance of beneficial negative ions filling the air, and electromagnetic qualities hardly mentioned today in scientific health literature. Their water was pure, unpolluted, highly structured and super-hydrating.
Before they had shoes, they were in constant contact with the earth, drawing ionic nourishment through the feet that filled their entire bodies and fueled energy, metabolic activity inside, and sustained their health in a way barely being understood today in scientific terms.
They didn't need science to maintain their health. The garden itself was enough.
Bee pollen and pine pollen alone, for example, are commonly consumed today by the teaspoonful. They possess hundreds of nutritional compounds. They are among the most nutritious foods in the world today.
Side‑by‑side Comparison of Average Bee Pollen and Pine Pollen Nutrient Profiles
These ranges are approximate, based on how many distinct compounds are explicitly named or minimally estimated across multiple studies.
Because analytical technology and the number of studied species keep expanding, these numbers will continue to rise; they are best viewed as current approximations rather than fixed ceilings.

So, why an allergic response to two of the most abundant nutritional resources on the planet?
Fundamentally, it has to do with DNA damage from environmental, food, and medical toxins, disabling your cells natural functioning ability to utilize these nutrients.
Your body has merely mounted an immune response as warning signals to other parts of the immune system to come to the rescue. This is called "inflammation".
The primary purpose of this inflammation is to signal to the immune system and cellular repair mechanisms to either repair the damaged DNA and restore the cell, or disassemble the cell and recycle its several parts. This is called "autophagy".
In cases of toxin overwhelm in the body, this natural inflammatory signalling response is thereby adding to an already overwhelmed immune system attempting to address genuine toxins from chemicals, metals, sugar, caffeine, cannabis, alcohol, parasites, venoms, pharmaceuticals, and other immune stressors, like blood sugar swings between high and low, and gut dysbiosis.
Toxins turn off some genes and turn on others, provoking abnormal disruptions to normal biological processes, like beneficial Mast Cell functions, causing them to send continuous signals to an increasingly overwhelmed immune system. This is called a "cytokine storm"
Mast Cells -- Sentinels With a Purpose
Typically during the first few pollen seasons, most people won't have symptoms, but over the course of time, your body starts making IgE (Immunoglobulin E), which is a type of beneficial antibody, found only in mammals, and is naturally created by plasma cells.
When the IgE circulates in our body it binds to specific cells called Mast Cells (MCs), that sit in our mucus membranes and in our airways, and in our skin.
MCs act as sentinels, detecting signals that indicate the presence of parasitic worms, protozoan parasites, venoms, and other possible dangers in surrounding cells and tissues, like blood sugar swings, and leaky gut.
IgE is the antibody that assists in the activation of a Mast Cell through a process called “degranulation”, meaning, it triggers the MC to dump its granules of histamine, heparin and other immune system mediators in response to a perceived (or misperceived) threat.
These mediators alert the immune system to send more troops to the site, AKA "inflammation" (which merely means - "lots of troops simply taking care of the business of cleaning out defective cells that have been damaged by toxins, so stem cells can then replace them with brand new, totally functional cells").
This function, again, is known as "autophagy".
Yet, when triggered in excess due to the growing number of toxins, this natural, beneficial response results in overwhelm, rather than balance.("cytokine storm")
The overwhelmed immune system then wears thin, being called to too many places in the body at once, and allergic symptoms from an excess of histamines (who are merely alerting the immune system to come to the rescue), begin to develop.
IgE (Immunoglobulin E antibodies) and MCs (Mast Cells) also play essential roles in type I hypersensitivity, which manifests in various allergic diseases, such as allergic asthma, most types of sinusitis, allergic rhinitis (hay fever), food allergies, and specific types of chronic hives and atopic dermatitis.
IgE and MCs also play pivotal roles in response to allergens, such as anaphylactic reactions to drugs, bee stings, venoms, and antigen preparations used in desensitization immunotherapy.
A predisposition of toxin overwhelm within the body is a common prerequisite for IgE and Mast Cell dysfunction.
Solution? Detoxification protocols,especially ones that provoke the production of Natural Killer Cells (NK Cells), the kind of immune cells that dispose of damaged, toxic, aged, or dysfunctional cells in the body.
NK Cells provide rapid responses to pathogen-infected cells, stressed cells, tumor cells, and other pathogens within a cell, by playing an initial role in destroying the dysfunctional cells and recycling the many components for the creation of new cells or other purposes.
Keep this in mind, because without this cellular disposal process in high gear, multiple pounds/kilos of useless, even harmful cells, continue to produce signalling histamines, thereby interfering with the healing needed to completely reverse allergic responses to natural airborne nutrition from tree and flower pollens.
The NeoGeneSys Protocol is a way to rapidly eliminate these dysfunctional cells and replace them with brand new, correctly functioning cells that increase youthfulness, eliminate disease of virtually all kinds, and extend lifespan.
As most of us know already, autophagy (self-eating cellular processes that eliminate and replace damaged cells) is central to the elimination of allergic responses to the abundant nutrition within air filled with pollen. The NeoGeneSys Protocol is about activating this autophagic response through herbs, superfood nutrition, and mild to moderate caloric restriction.
If our environment was pure and filled with pollen we would be able to"Eat as we breathe."
But this is not the case, so we begin where we are today, and this means detoxification strategies are the first order of business in the restoration of health and ultimate physical rejuvenation.
