How does cedar nut oil work against allergies?
Allergic reactions occur due to improper functioning of the immune system. When exposed to allergens (e.g. pollen, animal hair, certain foods), the body produces antibodies that cause inflammation and other negative reactions. Cedar nut oil reduces the reaction by acting on several key mechanisms.
First, cedar nut oil has powerful anti-inflammatory properties. It helps relieve inflammation in the respiratory system and skin, which is important for people with allergic rhinitis and atopic dermatitis. This is due to the content of linolenic acid in the cedar nut oil, which is involved in the synthesis of anti-inflammatory molecules[1].
Secondly, cedar nut oil helps to strengthen the immune system. The vitamins and minerals it contains help the body to better cope with allergens.
Third, cedar nut oil has an antioxidant effect. Antioxidants[2] help neutralize free radicals in the body, which can contribute to inflammatory reactions and the body's negative response to allergens.
