An allergy is a reaction by the body when the body ingests certain substances such as pollen and other triggers. The body’s immune system usually works very well to protect itself against foreign agents. When it comes to allergens, the body needs a little help.

Anyone who suffers from the endless sneezing attacks, watery eyes and itchy skin would do just about anything to alleviate the symptoms of allergie. For some, allergies are life long, and for others they are seasonal, and still for others, diet related.

The familiar tickle in the back of the throat, or the tightening in the chest signal the start of the allergy season, which used to mean the long months of agony for those who suffer from severe allergies.
