Is Sage Supplement Advisable For Allergic Symptoms?

Hi, I want to try a supplement for allergic symptoms that has sage in it. It s in a capsule form. I know that I have used sage in making stuffing for chicken or turkey, and I noticed that I had some congestion after eating it and II m wondering if the supplement would be a problem for me. I have mostly environmental and fragrance sensitivities and some food allergies. Thanks for your advice.

allergic bronchitis needs allergens for causing disease, so we have to find out allergen(causes), finding out allergens you have to go for skin allergy test for at least 140 allergens it will help u for ruling out you allergens , then u will get immunotherapy and cure, other wise you will get symptomatic medicines and no benefit.

If you have fragrance allergies, I suspect that a supplement with sage would likely cause allergic symptoms. I would be wary of any allergy or asthma remedies that have not been tested and evaluated for safety which is unfortunately the case with most over the counter supplements.
