My seasonal allergies have been really bad and the only thing that has been able to help is Flonase... It's a corticosteroid/glucocorticoid and i spray it right up my nose.. In Ayurveda they say the nose is the gateway to the brain.. I don't feel good about doing it but it's the only way i've been able to get a good nights rest.. Any comments?

Also, are dates ok for backloading or do they contain too much sugar?
