6. Allergy Prevention Vs. Treatment An old proverb says "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure". Why spend time, money, energy, and sometimes even pain, treating allergy symptoms after they occur? As you know, most allergy medications (pills and sprays) on the market treat allergy symptoms after the suffering starts. But as soon as the medicine starts to wear off, those symptoms start coming back in full force…because typical allergy products mask symptoms rather than eliminate them. Sometimes these “cures” even cause worse side effects.

9. Allergy Statistics in the UK An allergy is a chronic condition involving an abnormal reaction to an ordinarily harmless substance called an allergen. Typical allergens include pollen, ragwort, ragweed, pet dander, mold and dust mites. As many as 18 million people in the United Kingdom — about 1 in 4, suffer from hay fever allergies. This includes millions of children.

10. Allergy Causes & Symptoms Allergy symptoms occur when your immune system overreacts to an allergen—something that usually is harmless, such as plant pollen, dust mites, molds or animal dander. If you have an allergy, your immune system acts as if the allergen was dangerous, releasing chemical called histamine that causes allergy symptoms. If the allergen is something you breathe in from the air, your reaction will most likely affect your nose, eyes or lungs. Allergy symptoms will vary depending on the type of allergen.

11. Seasonal Allergic Rhinitis Seasonal allergic rhinitis or ‘hay fever’ literally means inflammation of the nose, and is most often caused by pollen carried in the air during different times of the year. Hay fever symptoms tend to peak in the spring and fall. Ragweed, tree, grass and weed pollen are all common sources of seasonal hay fever. Allergic rhinitis can also be triggered by common indoor allergens such as the dried skin flakes or saliva found on pet dander, droppings from dust mites and mold spores. This is called perennial rhinitis because symptoms typically occur year-round - 365 days. In addition to allergen triggers, symptoms may also occur from irritants such as smoke and strong odors, or to changes in the temperature and humidity of the air. This happens because allergic rhinitis causes inflammation in the nasal lining, which increases sensitivity to inhalants.

12. Why Need Hay Fever Hay fever" is a century-old term that has come to describe the symptoms of allergic rhinitis, especially when it occurs in the late summer. However, the symptoms are not caused by hay (ragwort/ragweed is one of the main culprits) and are not accompanied by fever. So, the term "allergic rhinitis" is more accurate. Similarly, springtime symptoms are sometimes called "rose fever," but it's just coincidental that roses are in full-bloom during the grass-pollinating season. Roses and other sweet-smelling, showy flowers rely on bees, not the wind, for pollination. Not much of their pollen gets into the air to cause allergies.

13. About Pets Allergy Almost 46% of UK households own pets (13 million households), and about 27 million of these pets are cats and dogs. Unfortunately, millions of human pet owners have an allergy (allergic rhinitis) to their animals. The proteins found in a pet's dander, skin flakes, saliva and urine can cause an allergic reaction or aggravate asthma symptoms in some people. Also, pet hair or fur can collect pollen, mold spores and other outdoor allergens.

14. Cold & Flu Allergy The common cold can be caused by more than 200 viruses; however, usually it is the Rhinovirus or Corona virus which causes more than 60% of the common cold incidents. Rhinovirus enters your body mostly through your nose and some through the mouth. Common symptoms of the cold are stuffy and runny nose, sore throat and sneezing. Children get colds 5 to 6 times per year probably because of close contact with other children during the day and a lower immune system, while adults get colds 2 to 3 times per year. On average, women between the ages of 20 and 30 get more colds than men, possibly because of their regular close proximity to children.

15. Children with Allergies An estimated 16 million people in UK suffer from hay fever allergy. In most people, allergies first appear during infancy or childhood. Allergic disorders rank first among children’s chronic diseases. Any child may become allergic, but children from families with a history of allergy are more likely to be allergic. Children may inherit the tendency to become allergic from their parents, but only some of them will develop an active allergic condition.

16. Kids Nasal Congestion Relief Allergies are the most common cause of chronic nasal congestion in children. Sometimes a child's nose is congested or blocked to the point that he or she breathes through the mouth, especially while sleeping. This may also cause the child to not get a restful night’s sleep and then be tired the next day. If the congestion and mouth breathing are left, they can cause abnormal changes the way the teeth and the bones of the face grow. Taking precautions and applying NasalGuard® AllergieBLOCK Gel is an easy way to block allergens from entering a child’s nose.
