Has anyone found a program to help shrink nasal polyps? I have polyps that create vasomotor rhinitis when the weather changes suddenly. Very strange and annoying. Any suggestions on what programs could help with this? My sinuses are fine.
Since your reaction seems to be triggered by sudden weather changes, you can try starting with Seasonal Sensitivities (P) to support the body’s sensitivity response. Respiratory Ease (P) may also be helpful for keeping the breathing pathways feeling clearer and more comfortable.
If the area feels irritated or reactive, Inflammation (P) could be another one to consider as part of your routine.

Hi Penny,
Could you ask John for his ideas on the symptoms I’m experiencing? There’s a chronic aspect to it due to the Nasal Polyps (which include loss of smell and taste) and an acute aspect to it - vasomotor rhinitis (alternating between runny nose/sneezing symptoms and blocked nose and unable to breathe through my nose). I can have one or the other during the acute phase, but both are very depleting and can knock me out for hours.
I believe the nasal polyps are the trigger, so they need a long-term intervention to shrink them. But when the attacks happen due to eosinophil triggers, possibly via sensitive nerves in my nose picking up on temperature changes, that’s when the vasomotor rhinitis kicks in.
I know nasal polyps are not currently available in aha halo, and I hope one day it can be added as a targeted protocol. In the meantime, would inflammation be the best support for it?
And how should I deal with the acute symptoms?
I know John can’t give medical advice but if he could share his perspective on an approach I could trial with the Halo I would really appreciate it. I have the Generator X but purchased Aha Halo specifically to deal with this condition, as I’ve had it for over 3 years now, and the only solution that the ENT can give me is SteroClear for life, and even that doesn’t always work (I stopped it after two months).
Thanks in advance for your help.
Hi Sha, thank you for explaining this so clearly.
John may not be able to personally reply to every individual case, but based on what you described, we’d think of it in two parts: for longer-term support around irritation/reactivity, Inflammation (P) may be worth trialing gently. For the acute weather-triggered reactions, Seasonal Sensitivities (P) and Respiratory Ease (P) may be more directly supportive. If the main issue is a blocked nose, Sinus and Nasal (P) could also be considered.
We’d suggest trying one program at a time for a few days so you can better notice what helps.
