The Complete Guide to Allergies
()
About this ebook
Welcome to the world of allergies. There are hundreds of resources available on allergies, perhaps you’ve read a few, or perhaps this is the first book you picked up about allergies.
If that is the case, you’ll be pleased to know we have combined our intimate knowledge of allergies as well as traditional and unconventional approaches to diagnosing, treating and preventing them in this unique, easy-to-follow guidebook.
From the time I was a young child I suffered from allergies – hay fever was for me the worst as a child, though as I grew older I suffered from food allergies as well. A bee sting for me now leads to an anaphylactic reaction; the last time I was stung, I was in the hospital for 3 days.
So, you might say I am intimately familiar with allergies.
Allergies they say, tend to run in families. I believe it. Some people however, develop allergies for miscellaneous reasons. You can for example, develop allergies because of a weakened immune system, or chronic state of illness. Many times, our bodies lose the ability to fight off irritants when our immune system is not 100 percent.
No matter the case, you will find the information in this guidebook invaluable as you navigate your way through the world of allergies. You’ll learn everything there is to know about conventional allergies (like allergies to pollen, dust and more) and food allergies.
You’ll find out what some of the more common diagnostic tools are for measuring your sensitivity, and discover ways to avoid common triggers so you can live life as comfortably (and symptom free) as possible.
You’ll even gain access to the single most comprehensive FAQ and resource sections available on allergies. So you can take what you learn from this book and research your own allergies even further, all by utilizing the tools provided in this guide.
How To Get The Most From This Guidebook
If you suffer from a specific type of allergy, you may feel tempted to skip ahead to the section that covers your allergy. You will gain the most however, by reading this book from start-to-finish. Even if you are familiar with allergies, it helps to learn as much as you can from the ground up.
