Nettle the Antihistamine !!!

Well today I had bun since its Good Friday. I have always been very careful with buns because sometimes I develop a reaction from it. Its probably gluten or the wheat or whatever  so for the entire day after eating two slices my skin itched and I sneezed and coughed from about 10 am until about 10pm.  Then I remembered reading that Nettle has antihistamine properties, I wanted to deal with this without over the counter drugs. I made the tea and after a few minutes I can report that I finally found relief .
