Did you know there are some foods out there that could actually help sooth your seasonal allergies? If you're heading out to a Memorial Day barbecue this weekend and your allergies are acting up, look for one of the following foods so you can enjoy the celebration, too!

Omega-3
Omega-3 fatty acids contain EPA, which is a natural anti-inflammatory. Some common foods containing omega-3 are salmon, haddock, and flaxseed oil.

Spices
Spices such as tumeric and ginger have anti-inflammatory agents that can help ease your allergies. If you're hosting a BBQ this weekend, look for a chicken or steak marinade that includes ginger or tumeric!

Juice
Should you find yourself in need of allergy relief this Memorial Day weekend, try fruit juice. It contains antioxidents that will help reduce inflammation. However, be sure to read the label to ensure you're drinking real juice.

From all of us here at Florida Eat Nose Throat and Facial Plastic Surgery Center, we hope you have a safe Memorial Day weekend!
