Hay fever relief – for humans AND horses

Unusual story…

Several years ago I introduced e-Alert readers to a new hay fever relief product called Nasaleze. It’s an organic powdered plant extract that’s sniffed into the nose where it creates a protective mucus-like gel when it comes into contact with moisture in the nasal passages.

Nasaleze was first studied in 2003 with a group of subjects who experienced seasonal hay fever symptoms. But some of these subjects were prone to year-round symptoms because they regularly rode horses. And if you spend time with horses, inevitably, you spend time with hay.

Paul Duxbury, my contact at Nasaleze, tells me that soon after that research was completed, he and his colleagues began to hear from horsemen who used Nasaleze to relieve allergy symptoms in horses.

Now that’s rough – horses with hay fever.

After many of these reports – confirmed by veterinarians – Paul and his colleagues designed a larger Nasaleze bottle with a modified delivery tube for a horse’s long nasal passage. They now have a clinical trial running at the Bollerup Horse Clinic in Sweden with about 35 horses enrolled so far. Among the first 10 horses in the study, nine have shown significant relief from allergies to dust, mold spores, pollen, and straw.

Horse lovers, you can read all about this study and the new Nasaleze product called NostrilVet on the website: nostrilvet.com.

And if this is the first you’ve heard about Nasaleze, you can find much more information about this unique product for humans with seasonal hay fever symptoms in the e-Alert “Down For the Count” (5/12/08).
