Allergies remain the most common affliction to individuals around the world. According to the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America, 40 percent of children and 30 percent of adults suffer from some sort of allergy, especially seasonal, with percentages steadily getting bigger. Our bodies are as unique as the environment around us, and impact us in a multitude of ways.
Our atmosphere has become polluted with toxic chemicals to a terrifying degree. Yes, this includes our car every time we go for a drive, no matter how short. People have found themselves becoming gradually more sensitive to smoke, pollen, dander, and anything else that can trigger a histamine reaction.
Many ask, why is this happening? Some have attributed the increase of allergies to our current level of hygiene today. Our cleanliness as a result limits our exposure to germs that may help train our immune system to differentiate between harmful and harmless irritants. However, we note that many factors likely contribute to the increased rates of allergies.
While this may seem like bad news, we have good news! Treating allergies via chiropractic care is affordable and a non-invasive method of treatment compared to what pharmaceuticals and other doctors may prescribe.
