Comment:
After 2 days of using a liquid extract of the leaves, I developed cold like symptoms that have lasted for 4 days now. Still coughing and blowing my nose. I used the Nature's Answer brand not found in the drop-down of Brand products.

Every time I take a single capsule, my skin turns red all over and "burns" for about an hour.

I take 2 in the winter mornings and 1 in the summer, in the morning and it seems to keep my allergies at bay.

Comment:
I drink stinging nettle tea to combat allergies and it works great, on and off season. In the early spring I actually forage the nettles and boil them to make my own tea. When that runs out I purchase it at our local Fred Meyer natural section...16 packets for under $4.00.

Comment:
I can be allergic to my cats if their hair gets in my eyes or face. I use this (along with flushing my face with water) for immediate results.
