I saw a study the other day describing allergy shots as “allergy vaccines.” That got my attention.
Many allergy patients do not know that most allergy shots contain some of the same toxins as vaccines. Unsuspecting, we add substantially to our toxic load.
As with a vacc, there are side-effects with allergy shots
There are mild side-effects such as:
- swelling or redness at the injection site
- itching, watery eyes, stuffy nose, and sneezing
And there are much more severe ones such as:
- rapid or irregular heartbeat
- tightness in the chest or throat
- difficulty breathing or wheezing
- dizziness or lightheadedness
- loss of consciousness
- and death (source)
Allergy shots contain Phenol (used in lethal injections during WWII)
Phenol aka carbolic acid is derived from distillation of coal tar and is an extremely poisonous compound that is used in a highly diluted form.
It is an ingredient in five vaccines licensed in the United States, including Hib, Hib/Hep B, Pneumococcal, Smallpox, and Typhoid. (source) Phenol has a questionable safety record. (source)
Manufactured phenol is used as a chemical to produce industrial commodities such as plastics (BPA), nylon 6, synthetic fibers, detergents, herbicides, pharmaceutical drugs and was used as a lethal weapon during WWII by the Nazis. (source)
Allergy Shots also contain Human Serum Albumin
Human serum albumin is known to cause anaphylaxis. It is a ”serious, life-threatening allergic reaction and can be fatal.”
Anaphylaxis demands immediate medical treatment, a prompt injection of epinephrine, or trip to an emergency room.
And Here’s the Real Kicker – Aluminum
In an enlightened conversation about health and autonomy, Marco Cáceres writes:
“Allergy shots can contain aluminum as an adjuvant. (source) Same as with vaccines, only perhaps more aluminum per shot and cumulatively, given that allergy shots are given more frequently (often weekly or monthly) (1) (2) than vaccines.”
There may be exceptions: please request to SEE the list of ingredients from your doctor.
According to Christopher Exley, PhD, professor of bioinorganic chemistry at Keele University in the United Kingdom:
Aluminium-based adjuvants are the most commonly used adjuvant in subcutaneous allergy immunotherapy (SCIT). Approximately 75% of all such adjuvant-based therapies include an aluminium salt. In parallel with the use of aluminium-based adjuvants in vaccinations these adjuvants have been in use in allergy immunotherapies for over 80 years. (source)
There are very few data purporting to the safety of aluminium adjuvants in allergy immunotherapy and particularly so in relation to longer term health effects,” adds Dr. Exley.
Allergies are the sixth leading cause of chronic illness among Americans. What we don’t know is how many people are suffering from the side-effects of the allergy shots they take and what the economic costs are of that treatment. (source)
Aluminum has NO good reason to be inside the body and a well-known toxin
When injected, our bodies cannot filter the out the known toxin. (source)
- Injection absorption rates are near 100%
- Through ingestion (in food or drinks), they are 0.1 – 0.3% for aluminum taken in.
ScienceDirect warns: “Aluminum has neurotoxic properties and can form focal accumulations in the body.” (source)
Natural Antihistamines
(because you just may want to reconsider allergy shots)
- Vitamin C is a natural antihistamine. One study suggests taking 2,000 mg. or more daily. It works!!
- Plain and natural out of the hive RAW honey!!!!
- Allergy Health contains 4 of these natural histamines (Amazon Choice product)
- Boiron Children’s Sabadil for hayfever, itchy and water eyes, sneezing, runny nose, and itchy throat and nose (Amazon Choice product)
- Bromelain is popular for swelling or inflammation, especially of the sinuses and following injury or surgery.
- Quercetin is a natural antihistamine that helps stabilize mast cells to prevent both the manufacture and release of histamine.
- Stinging nettle leaf blocks histamine receptors. The leaf can function just like Allegra or Claritin with none of the side effects.
- Boiron Histaminum Hydrochloricum 30C is a powerful remedy for stopping histamine reactions. (Amazon Choice product)
- Euphrasia Officinalis (eyebright herb) has been utilized since the middle ages as a tool for treating all sorts of allergies and allergy related symptoms
- Probiotics help balance of gut bacteria and boost a person’s immune system, which can help the body fight off allergies.

Had no idea. Guess I’m lucky, when I was seen, while in the Army, for my allergies, the doctor told me, from reactions I had already had, that my allergies were too bad to even test for drug or food allergies and warned me to never try allergy shots. I took him at his word and never got any I did consider about 20-30 years ago, trials on allergy shots for cedar fever, which is very common here in S Texas. Again, glad I did not follow through because so many people had bad reactions to those shots they had to call off the entire study.
After the end of Vietnam, when the military went all-volunteer, I was told that my allergies are so bad I would never have been allowed to join the new all-volunteer Army. I remember as far back as I can remember, when we kids got up we went into the kitchen to drink our glass of orange juice, take our vitamin pill and take an allergy pill. I think it was called Piranol or Copiranol, probably misspelled. I don’t think it is still on the market, which is probably not a good sign.Every morning for at least 14 years.

Oh, my goodness, Gena!
I shudder to think of all the millions of people who have no idea why they feel so crappy and how to know the etiology of it!
There are so many ways to sink an immune system, and this fallen world has a plethora of them coming at us all at once!
I’m glad you didn’t take those shots and I’m thankful you had a perceptive doctor!
The Lord is guarding you! ~J

This is counter to my normal natural approach to things, but my allergies were so bad I ended up turning to shots. I had tried Quercetin and natural allergy support for years and things were still getting worse every spring. I, no-exaggeration, absolutely dreaded the arrival of this beautiful season in the magnificent Pacific Northwest. I couldn’t afford being a mother of twins and having flulike symptoms, full-body aches and total exhaustion, along with an itchy — painfully, angrily itchy and sore — throat, massively red and irritated, constantly runny eyes, headache, for weeks every time one of my several pollen-enemy seasons hit. All I can say is, the shots have worked. I still take the good natural stuff and I am the first to (rationally) freak about what is in vaccines, know a flu shot is not merely worthless, but in this case I went in without research, without questioning – nothing – just acted on the advice of a natural-method preferring friend who, nevertheless, got desperate and did shots and changed her life, too. This is literally the first piece on the subject of what’s in these durn shots I’ve read and I did so pretty much by accident after landing here to read your excellent post on melatonin for covid. Now I see how totally hypocritical it is for me to take and now defend these shots. And yet, I still will! Anyway, what can I say – just my perspective. Loving your blog already – religious Jew here and bookmarking you. Be well, all, and God bless!

In the US allergy shots do not contain aluminum adjuvants. In the UK they do. Not in the US.
Jacqueline
Yes, Elizabeth, that is true : “Today, AlADJ are used as adjuvant in European allergy vaccines, whereas in the US allergy vaccines are adjuvant free and soluble.” https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4348159/
I added that to the post! TY!
Julie
Did allergy shots in the US never contain aluminum? I received mine from age 8-12 starting in 1975.
Jacqueline
Julie, I can’t find anything on whether or not they were in there then. It is possible they were not! I’m praying not!!

Anni
Do you know the source of the human albumin? Scary. Both my daughter and I get three shots each every three weeks, except when we get new vials. Then it’s every 3-9 days. Yikes!
Allison
Is this article merely talking about allergy immunotherapy shots? The pictures are deceiving as they look like pictures of allergy testing. Are the same ingredients in an allergy prick test?
Jacqueline
No, Allison! I understand about the image, but it does convey that allergy testing is the first step in the process. If you can think of a better type of image, I’m all ears!
I don’t want it to look like a vaccination post!
Thanks, ~J

I got allergies when I moved to Texas a few years ago. Many they were bad. Like headaches and congestion and the works so bad I would be down for the count. I wasted a lot of life because I did not want to take meds. Well this year I discovered your turmeric drink from a post on MeWe and I cannot even believe how great I feel. In addition to no pain and mental clarity, my allergies have been essentially nonexistent and very mild even on high allergen days here in our area. My friends all know it too as I am shouting it from the rooftops. I am excited to see these other remedies. The next step is going through your natural medicine chest information with my kids for school and get that set up for use. So excited thanks so much.
Jacqueline
Yay, Shelley, I am so thrilled to hear that!
Since that’s helping so much, I will share my #1 recommendation of all my natural remedies – a simple detox esp relevant for vaccine injury and toxic load many are not aware is still there..
It removes ~80,000 toxins and metals with a 2 ingredient spray into the mouth. You can read more about it here: https://deeprootsathome.com/avalyns-story-how-trs-a-safe-heavy-metal-detox-can-help-you-and-your-child/
and here: https://deeprootsathome.com/heavy-metals-need-to-go-they-are-food-for-viruses-bacteria-fungi/
TRS does not heal or cure anything, but it clears the body of toxins/metals and such so the body can heal and rebalance itself as God designed it to do!
Once the toxins are detoxed, all the natural supplements can really work (are no longer bandaids) as our underlying root causes of inflammation and imbalances are removed.
I don’t open my mouth nearly enough about this.. It is what healed our advanced Lyme and my lupus, my chronic allegies (that the turmeric blend could not) and so much more!
Bless you,
Jacqueline

For those reading here, if you are concerned with toxins from adjuvants in allergy shots, mercury in your amalgams, vaccine adjuvants, pesticides/herbicides (from farming around you or contaminated foods you’ve eaten), mold, plastics (BPA, BPS), etc. there is a cost-effective, brilliant, and simple way to bind them and remove them deeply (cellularly as well as in the gut and blood). Or, if you just want to strengthen your immune system, read on!
Here is some basic information:
FAQ on my website: https://inspiredhealthtrs.cosevatrs.com/faq/
reads: AdvancedTRS contains nano-clinoptilolite and water (just 2 ingredients). Clinoptilolite itself has been shown to:
—Bind heavy metals and over 80,000 toxins
—Adjust the balance of vital nutrients like iron & calcium
—Support intestinal microflora and pH
—Promote healthy immune function

I wasn’t sure if the article was regarding allergy shots or the immunotherapy shots for allergies or both. So I just want to verify. Do the immunotherapy injections in the US to overcome allergies contain toxins? I have started taking these three months ago but definitely want to stop if they do. Thank you for the information you are sharing!
Jacqueline
Hi, Karen,
There is no way to know but to ask and actually SEE the ingredient list. I have seen too much stuff hidden from patients, so I would ask to see it!!
In the post I mention, “There may be exceptions: please request to SEE the list of ingredients from your doctor.”
That caveat was under the video, and so it’s not so confusing, I moved it up where it is more visible!
Blessings,
Jacque
