  Allergies are an abnormal condition of the immune system.  Our immune systems are made up of cells and organs in our bodies that usually keep us healthy and clear of infections.  Those of us with allergies or that will some day develop allergies have immune systems that overreact to allergens.  

Allergens spark reactions to substances outdoors and indoors, such as pet dander, food, pollen, dust, milk, hay, chemicals, drugs, smoke, smog, feathers, and wool.  Symptoms can include sneezing, eye irritation, scratchy throat, runny nose, itchy skin, fever   Allergies are an inherited tendency through genetics, although not everyone that inherits the genes will become allergic.




Proactive Measures for the Home

1.  Encase pillows and mattress with allergy reducing covers.
