Spirulina per Allergic Rhinitis
C Evidenze Evidenza limitata da studi di piccole dimensioni, ma esistono alcuni segnali positivi.A 2020 comparative trial found spirulina was more effective than cetirizine (a standard antihistamine) in improving allergic rhinitis symptoms. Earlier studies show enhancement of NK cell function in a majority of subjects.
