First Things First. Just What's an Allergy Anyway?
An
allergy is a hypersensitivity disorder of the immune system brought on
by environmental substances known as allergens. Your immune system
detects something in the air which is usually harmless to most people.
And then it fights back in a way that allergy sufferers know all too
well.
Depending on the season, it might be
tree pollen (one of the worst allergy offenders, which can arrive early in the season and travel for miles);
grass pollen (most common in spring to early summer);
weed pollen (weeds are the worst producers of pollen, from late summer through fall), or
spores from fungi or mold. Year-round, it can be
dust mites (chances are they are all over your house, especially in bedding and upholstered furniture),
cockroaches,
pet dander (both cats and dogs), or
spores from indoor/outdoor fungi or mold.
