    I hate cedar! During pollen season, I eat allergy meds. Kerrville, tx.

    Love your videos. Bought your book.
    You are absolutely correct. I live in the hill country. Probably have 200 cedar trees on my 2/3 acre. Never chop them down, prune the big ones. Live with nature. Can’t fight nature and why would one. Also, it’s easier 😂

    Interesting! I watched this twice, and as allergic to cedar as I am, I love and respect it more so, now.
    I live in cedar country, southern Palo Pinto county. Woodlands all around me.
    I have been allergic to cedar all of my life and have always been an outdoor person...not a city gal although I do love the city.
    Cokes and sugar are no- no's during cedar fever time for me as Elizabeth said.
    Thanks for all the info! I will have a crew cut only the lower branches of the cedar on my large hillside.

    Any tips on telling the difference between Ashe Juniper and Eastern Red Cedar? I recently moved from Austin to Dallas. Back in Austin I just assumed any cedar was Ashe Juniper, but up here it isn't so clear.

    Pollen allergy symptoms are caused by the immune system attacking the pollen. If sugar suppresses the immune system, should't it reduce the reaction to juniper pollen rather than increase it?

      Eat 3 Juniper "berries" (pinecones) a day, and that will stop your allergic reactions to Juniper pollen. They taste terrible at first, but they are an acquired taste and you will soon like the flavor. Don't eat a lot of them. I am told they are bad for your digestion in large quantities. The berries are only found on female Junipers.

      Use the berries carefullly since they are a spice and contain oils (that's the aromatic part) that will cause stomach upset if a lot are eaten. However, the berries also contain camphor and vitamin C. Both help reduce allergic symptoms.

      What an awful attitude. They just touched on the value and history of these trees. Of course I'm glad they did because of so many people who selfishly and ignorantly think their comfort during allergy season is so much more valuable or important than these trees, along with those who falsely think the junipers/cedars are responsible for "hogging" all the water (while conveniently ignoring the immense pressure placed on the aquifers due to explosive human population growth coupled with people having lifestyles that consume tons of resources and are not water-wise). There's such a lack of critical and systems thinking, with the consequences are stacking up fast.

      @@bunnywhite6513 Lady, these trees need to go extinct. They cause huge amounts of the populace in this area to get sick every year. Screw your opinion & the quack in this video trying to say it is worse in the city than the woods.
