Vitamins for Sinusitis

When the sinus trouble has already developed, relief can be obtained by taking vitamin A in large therapeutic doses of 25,000 I.U. per day.

Vitamin C has also proved beneficial in the treatment of sinusitis and the patient should take one gram of this vitamin per day in two therapeutic doses of 500 mg. each.
Also to be remembered:
One of the most effective remedies for sinus problems is to eat pungent herbs like garlic and onion which tend to break up mucous congestion all through the respiratory tract. One should begin with small mild doses and increase them gradually. Beneficial results can also be achieved by adding these herbs in moderate amounts to regular meals.

Carrot juice used separately or in combination with juices of beet and cucumber or with spinach juice is highly beneficial in the treatment of sinus trouble. 100 ml. each of beet and cucumber juice or 200 ml. of spinach juice should be mixed with 300 ml. of carrot juice in these combinations.

  1. Hi. Really glad to see vitamins discussed. Every case is different, just like every person is different. I typically recommend trying lower impact stuff first, which means the more natural angle.
    However if your sinusitis becomes chronic you have to be educated and understand your options. This usually means sinus surgery or balloon sinuplasty.
    Talk to your doc, do your homework, and Be Well!
