No cure yet, but...: Allergy shots (allergen immunotherapy) is currently the only treatment that is disease modifiying, meaning it can change how the body responds to exposure to allergens.  It is "natural" and long lasting effects carry on after shots are stopped. It works for most, but not all people.  Closest thing to a cure so far.....
