The obvious answer to
this question is the allergens presence itself, but there are many
other controllable and uncontrollable factors that make your allergy
symptoms heightened. The three largest and most prevalent factors
are cigarette smoke, global warming, and asthma.
The number one controllable factor that affects your allergies is
cigarette or cigar smoke. First hand inhalation of smoke or second
hand smoke has been proven to make allergic symptoms worst. The results
of testing by the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology
suggest that people with allergies are especially affected by cigarette
smoke and should avoid smoking, the research team said. They should
also reduce their exposure to secondhand smoke.
Believe it or not, global warming is a major producer to why your
allergies are heightened and why more and more people worldwide are
finding out they have severe allergies. Many scientists believe that
global warming is a big reason for the rapid rise of allergies over
the past few decades. Allergic diseases have also increased recently
because of lifestyle changes, obesity, and pollution. Because of these
factors, a larger percentage of the population will be more sensitive
to any increase in allergens caused by global warming. You can do
your part to reduce global warming by staying “Green.” There are many
initiatives by our government and many specialty stores that sell
green products. Support a Green Initiative to help control your allergies
and the next generation of people across the world.
Allergies and Asthma are very closely related. Asthma and allergy
symptoms worse and vice versa! If you have asthma, then you can count
on having allergies too, but it is important to note that not all
people with asthma have allergies. If you are an asthmatic and have
allergies, then it is important to make changes in your environment
to control or avoid contact with the allergens. Check out the AllergyFreeLifestyle.com

to suppress your asthma and allergies together.
