Allergy is one of the most widespread diseases in modern world. It’s actually the disease of the XXI century. Factors like deterioration of ecological situation, non-balanced diet,excessive medicamentation therapy, uncontrolled usage of antibiotics, stress, physical inactivity, climate changes enhance exposure of organism to allergens.

What is allergy?

Allergy is hypersensitivity, modified reaction of organism to certain allergens activity. That means the immune system reacts too dramatically on quite innocent substances and gets too overprotective towards absolutely harmless for organism allergens. In most cases allergic reactions manifest themselves very quickly and are accompanied with itching, skin redness, oedemata, including oedema of respiratory tract, and might cause death.

What may become your allergen?

Almost everything may cause allergy: sun, cat, plant pollen, favourite dish, home dust, cold, beauty care products, medicines. This list is limitless. Important risk factor for allergy isgenetic background. If one of parents is exposed to allergy the possibility that child might suffer from it constitutes 30-40%. If both parents suffer from this disease, risk constitutes 70-75%.
