I am suffering with a chronic cough that has lasted for at least 6-8 weeks on and off. I am not always coughing, but every now and then I get a tickle and really have to cough. Sometimes I'm kept awake at night by it.
I am now making a connection as I have been taking a lot more supplements from the Health Food Shop, Triple Omega, Green Tea, Echinacea, Zinc. I'm rattling with all these tablets!!
I am wondering if my cough might be because of what might be in any of these?
I suppose I could always stop and see:D
Just wondered if anyone else was allergic to supplements?
I've never heard before of allergies related to supplements, but maybe you should go to a doctor and get it checked out, might not be the supplements

There is obviously something going on here which needs sorting out.
It is possible to develop an allergy or intolerance (IgE or IgG reactions respectively) to almost anything. I would suggest it is far more likely that food or a household product is involved. Milk and milk products are notorious at causing problems with the respiratory system, but that does not preclude any other problems.
I would suggest you go and get checked out by the doctor to eliminate anything else going on - infections, smoking and the like. If you are given antibiotics please make sure you take probiotics to replace the beneficial bacteria in the gut that are killed off in the process - something like are helpful.
If you are all clear medically, then I would suggest a visit to a registered [url]Ntritional Therapist[/url] who is trained to understand the effects of foods on the body and advise what is best for you and to select the choice of suitable supplements for the individual person (we are all different). It is amazing what a difference the right foods and supplements can do for our health - unfortunately doctors are not taught this (6 hours of nutrition in 6 years of training!) so lack this knowledge. It could save the NHS an absolute fortune if they did!!!
Let us know how you get on 🙂
Supplement Allergy
I agree with the previous comments. I have never heard of any allergy to supplements before - but you do need to get it checked out rather than experiment and just stop taking. A good nutrition clinic not only will be able to advise you but they will be able to carry out tests for allergies and intolerances
Relief from Allergy
Hi,
I am 77 years old and ten years ago, I was diagnosed with angina. The cardiologist told me that my angiogram was showing blockage in two arteries - over 95% in one and 85% in the other. They told me they had to perform bypass surgery. I researched for alternative treatments and decided to try intravenous chelation therapy. During a ten year span, I had 180 chelation treatments and with vitamin supplements I began feeling better than ever.
Since I was feeling better, in the year 2000, I was curious to see my results from a stress test. The test came back positive for Ischemia. Even though my stress test came back with better results than 10 years ago, I decided to take 10 additional intravenous chelation treatments.
During this time, my wife became diagnosed with Fibromyalgia Rheumatica and began reading ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE magazine, where she came upon an interesting article on the PCA chlathration therapy that reports to remove heavy metals, environmental toxins, pesticide residues, cardio and cerebral vascular plaque and microbial cell wall residue.
The only relief my wife was to receive came from large doses of cortisone, which made her lethargic and extremely depressed.
My wife and I began taking PCA and after only one month I could now walk 4 very fast miles per day when I couldn't even walk a slow mile before taking the PCA and my wife appeared to have found her bubbly personality again. Not only was she full of energy, but her Polymyalgia Rheumatica seemed to disappear. . . and she no longer needs to take cortisone. . . she feels like a new person!
After 8 months of taking PCA, my wife and I never felt better and I decided to take a nuclear test for scientific proof of my much-improved health.
I am happy to say, but not surprised, that the test came back with phenomenal results - it came back normal for the first time in 20 years! Please see enclosed test results. My wife and I are free of medications and pain. We are both taking supplements and feeling wonderful.
My wife and I would like to gratefully thank the wonderful people who researched and developed PCA. And thank goodness for PCA. . . it is absolutely fantastic. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to feel healthy and full of energy. Keep up the good work!
Sincerely,
John and Silvina S.
Allergies
I agree with Janice. You should go to a doctor and check it if it's really the supplements that made the allergies. It can be the food that you've eaten.
