Hives are never an easy condition to deal with. It’s a rash that can appear anywhere on your body and is usually triggered by an allergic reaction from a number of things like stress, foods, and even medications. Regardless of your situation, hives are a huge inconvenience.
To complicate the situation, the number one remedy for hives is identifying the root cause of your allergic reaction, but the potential causes seem endless. Not to mention, there are home remedies and you start to wonder which natural approach is the most effective?

How to Identify Signs & Symptoms
Any skin condition is usually associated with poor gut health. Conditions like acne, psoriasis, eczema, urticaria, skin lesions, hives, are nothing more than your body giving you a sign that something's wrong and something needs to be addressed.
You know, we are not taught from an early age to recognize symptoms, but your body will always give you a sign that it needs help. It's just that we don't pay attention to it.
So, let's say you have a headache. That's your body saying hello, I'm giving you a headache so you can track back what you put in your body or what you were exposed to over the last 24 hours. Your body wants to you ask questions like:
- Did you drink too much alcohol?
- Did you eat something with chemicals in it?
- Did you have something with artificial sweeteners?
- Did you eat MSG?
- Did you have titanium dioxide? (Titanium dioxide is known to cause migraines and chronic headaches.)
- Are you using sunblock? (Sunblock has chemicals that are extremely damaging to the brain tissue and venous system and can cause headaches.)
- Are you spraying on insect repellent?
There are a million things that it could be.
But, when you are talking about hives, and having to take antihistamines, what you really have to be looking at is not what you need to take to reduce the hives, but what are you doing that's causing the hives?
Causes of Hives
Now, usually, that means that you have a gut, liver, and harmful organism situation. When the gut is out of balance, you're usually eating the wrong foods. Whenever your immune system gets low, your self-healing mechanism drops to a certain level, or you have leaky gut syndrome in the bowel, you cannot process all these foods and break down all the foods. That's the number one reason why people get skin conditions.
Natural Remedies for Hives
I recommend cleansing as the first remedy for hives. You can start cleaning the body and reactivating the body's self-healing mechanism by getting on good probiotics and something that's going to clean your intestinal lining, such as Oxy-Powder®. Once you begin cleansing the body, you start healing from the inside. Try going into intermittent fasting, eating all organic, and eliminating dairy to continue cleaning the body.
Dairy is a mucus-producing, allergen-producing compound. Some people don't have an allergy or reaction. I try to avoid dairy, but I will have raw goat cheese and raw sheep cheese. I do feel a reaction when I have any cow cheese or any regular dairy. I know a lot of people that can eat raw goat cheese and raw sheep cheese and not have a reaction like they do with any type of cow dairy. It has to do with the fact that it's pasteurized and heated, and there's hormones, toxins, puss, and blood particles in most of the milk products out there.
So really, if I was dealing with hives, the first thing I would do is look at my diet. Then I would ask myself a series of questions.
- When is the last time I've completely cleansed my intestines and loaded up on probiotics?
- When is the last time I've done multiple liver cleanses?
- When is the last time I've done a harmful organism cleanse?
- When's the last time I've done a chemical and heavy metal cleanse?
In other words, you know, we have to be proactive at keeping our bodies clean. I mean, what happens if you leave a plate with some food out in your kitchen? What happens two days later? You have mold and it's nasty.
People are not cleansing their bodies as much as they should. They're not eating raw foods that naturally cleanse your body. Fruit, really anything that's raw, is going to naturally have a cleansing effect on your system.
So, the first thing you need to do is always ask yourself, what is the root cause of my hives? Why am I getting these skin breakouts? And the reason why you're getting the skin breakouts is you're not eating the right foods. You're putting allergens in your system. You're not cleansing your body on a regular basis. Your immune system might be down. You might be under a chronic state of stress. You might be not sleeping enough. You might have situations in your life where you're living in a toxic environment. You might have a smart meter near you. You know, there's multiple things that people need to look at to determine how clean, effective, sanitary, and pure that they're living and the things that they’re putting in their body.
The Power of Cleansing
I've never seen a case of hives, in my history of working with people, that hasn’t improved after going into a health and wellness program. People change their diet, eat organic foods, begin intermittent fasting, and complete cleansing programs. You also need to look at all those different factors along the way, to determine what you are putting in your body. It's all about reducing the chemicals and toxins that you're putting into your body or you’re exposed to on a regular basis. That goes for every single condition; not only hives, but also for everything that you're dealing with.
Points to Remember
I mean the thing that I'm trying to get out to people, is that you have the power to heal yourself. All you need to do is figure out the root cause of what's causing your situation, the chemicals and toxins, stress, and all those things. So, if you just start working on those and eliminating all those things, then everything else comes into place and your body starts healing itself. You have the power to heal any condition known to man, or any condition that you might ever get. Your body is the strongest healing mechanism out there.
And all I'm doing is just sharing with you the simplest ways to do it, which is just cleansing and detoxifying with a clean, plant-based diet, probiotic supplements like Latero-Flora™, and an intestinal cleanser like Oxy-Powder®. I mean it's really not rocket science. It's so easy, but the hardest part is actually changing your diet, changing your lifestyle, but you can do that in slow, baby steps. Nothing has to be done super fast.
