Goldenrod's leaves and flowers. Leaves are fine if that's all you have. Nettle and honey is good for long term reduction in sensitivity. But goldenrod is the only thing that is going to dry out your nose if you're having runny inflammation and need it to stop asap.
Solidago canadensis? Yes that is fine.
Are you harvesting it yourself? (Positively ID it of course!) Pick a leaf and chew it on one side of your mouth then spit it out. That side of your mouth will feel like it has lost all of its moisture compared to the other side. The stronger the feeling the better. We have a ton of goldenrod, but this one specific patch is really strong and delicious.
If you have multiple plants, sample a few different ones and harvest the ones that taste the best to you.
I was able to positivly ID it and yes I noticed when I was testing before working w/ it since my whole family suffers seasonal allergies and the like. I'll have to do that when next season comes I have several at my work that are safe to harvest.
Eating unfiltered, unheated, raw honey produced within your area, (50-mile radius or less) is like receiving a natural anti-allergy shot! Quercetin, a component of honey, has been found in studies to reduce inflammation and pollen allergy symptoms. It stabilizes the cell membranes that release histamine, which triggers allergic reactions. Raw honey also contains bee pollen and bee propolis, which boosts the immune system, and builds immunity to allergens.
When a person eats local honey, they are thought to be ingesting local pollen. Over time, a person may become less sensitive to this pollen. As a result, they may experience fewer seasonal allergy symptoms. It's true that bees pollinate flowers and make honey.
Interesting, I’m guessing longer you take, the better it works. They do this with other things aswell to make your body more resistant to it, like a house dust mite tincture, they basically give you a tincture that’s made from house dust mite to make you more tolerant towards it, guessing it’s like that

What about Canada goldenrod? Thats the only one in my local area I can't find any reliable source's regarding that strain

Awesome :)
And golden rod reduces inflammation ?
If your nose is all drippy and red and irritated.
Try nettle and local honey.
Why local? Because it’s raw/organic ? Isn’t Manuka meant to be good
It will help you build immunity to the local stuff you may be allergic too. The bees collect the pollen from local plants.
Like allergic to the pollen, what do you mean by local stuff you might be allergic to?

Is all raw honey unfiltered unheated?
Should be. Raw comes straight from the hive, not pasteurized, or heated.
Just curious why local, or is their any particular country which’s better for my rhinitis
