Mama to Many (Tennessee, US) on 11/02/2014:

We were visiting friends when the husband had this severe itching in his hands. Apparently it happens every so often. A food diary has been kept because it seems to be in response to having eating something but no clear connections have been made. Anyway, I suggested Nettle Tea. So he drank a large mug full of Nettle tea (with a little peppermint for flavor.) In 20 minutes or so, his intense itching was improving. After a while he had no more symptoms.

What is amazing to me is that we have seen nettle work for such a variety of allergic reactions to a variety of things. Nettle is really amazing and a safe herb even for children.
