Is it just me or does this seem to be a particularly bad year for hay fever? I'm even beginning to wonder if I've got hay fever or some other kind of nasal complaint I'm having such a hard time with it. I'm unable to breathe through my nose for much of the night so waking with a very dry mouth all the time, my nose feels constantly as though someone's just punched me too. Anyone else like this or is it time for me to see a nose doctor?!

If it's made from herbs I guess it's alright to use if you are breastfeeding?

i wouldn't like to say - we need 'gloworm', she is the luffa expert. i believe she has said it is safe to use in pregnancy and breastfeeding but hopes she sees this to confirm. all it has on the packaging is 'please seek medical advice if pregnant', which i guess is the usual disclaimer. if you try searching under current messages, enter 'luffa' and 'gloworm' from the past 2 weeks you should be able to find the information.

shrub, you are right about the disclaimer and pg/breastfeeding. Bioforce are not going to say one way or the other whether its safe or not...they say they cannot take responibility for your pregnancy and you should speak to your GP (who wont have heard of Luffa!!)

Unoffically, bioforce have told me it is safe (and if i was pregnent I wouldnt hesitate to use it)...this is off-the-record so I leave it to you to make your own decision.

here is the link for hayfever and luffa (and other hayfever remedies)

luffa and hayfever

I've just re-read it and it actually states quite clearly that it IS safe during pregnancy
