What Are Allergies?
Allergies occur when your body’s immune system encounters a foreign substance (like pollen, pet dander, mold, latex, etc.) and, mistaking it as a threat to your health, overreacts. While many allergens are relatively harmless, each person’s experience with allergies is unique.
As a result, allergies are often misunderstood by both patients and mainstream medicine alike: many practitioners treat symptoms rather than the root cause, whatever that might be.
