Studies have shown that about 7 million Canadians suffer from allergies or allergic illness, and the number is steadily growing.

Allergic reactions are the immune system overreacting to allergens — for example, food, pollen, grass, weeds, dander, etc. — that trigger symptoms such as sneezing, wheezing, runny eyes, stuffy nose, coughing, and itching. Asthma, hives, hay fever, seasonal allergies, and eczema are all examples of allergy disorders.

Contrary to what many people think, allergens aren’t the cause of allergic reactions or symptoms. They are simply triggers. Allergic reactions are usually due to an imbalance in the body, such as intestinal disorders, too many toxins in the body, a weak and toxic liver, a high acidic pH, and poor diet.

How Can You Decrease Your Allergic Reactions?

In light of the above information as to what are the root causes of your reactions, here are several things you can do to lessen your allergic reactions:

1. Avoid mucus-forming foods, e.g., dairy, bananas, or sweets;
2. Balance the immune system in the digestive tract with probiotics;
3. Check your pH and avoid acid-forming foods;
4. Have your adrenal glands checked by a naturopathic doctor;
5. Have your toxicity level checked by a naturopathic doctor.
