Benefits for Insect Bites.

Natures Comfort Benefits for Insect Bites

While insect bites or stings alone may be harmless, in some cases they may transmit other diseases like malaria or Lyme. Tics specifically can transmit Lymes disease which is caused from the venom latching onto glial cells in the brain. Most bites cause mild stinging or itching. Some bites can trigger a life-threatening allergic reaction that requires emergency care. Breathing difficulty, facial swelling, dizziness, confusion, and hives are symptoms of such a reaction. The extracts in our Natures Comfort Oil are highly anti-bacterial, antifungal, and anti-inflammatory so they can assist the body with the production of cytokines including interleukins (ILs) and TNF-α, and other natural growth factors, of which platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) is perhaps the most important for healing. The key to any allergic reaction from any insect bite is to reduce the swelling from the histamine response which is just the body trying to remove the toxin in its own way. Our product works on all insect bites and any skin irritation.
