5 Allergy Secrets--5 Facts About Airborne Allergies You Should Know But Probably Don't

Allergies can't be cured but they can be managed in a way that keeps them from disrupting your life. Here are 5 ways you can gain control of symptoms and take back your life.

1. What you eat is important. Foods that are high in anti-oxidants give a tremendous boost to the immune system. Brightly colored fruits and vegetables will give your body the nutrients necessary to help your body stay strong..

A variety of fruits and vegetables will provide your body with anti-oxidants that will keep cells healthy and keep them strong against infections. Eating lean meat, fish, beans, and grains adds variety while keeping weight normal. Using local honey can also help to desensitize you to allergens that are typical to your area. These are huge advantages that are gained naturally..

2. Sleeping well is crucial. Studies have shown that the consistency and quality of sleep are directly related to how well your body is able to handle the physical (exposure to and flare ups because of irritants) and emotional stresses of life.

6 to 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep has been found to be the healthiest range for most adults. Cleaning the air in your bedroom keeps your body from having to fight irritants during the night. This gives your body the much needed time to rest and rejuvenate..

3. Stay aware of the conditions around you. The advance of technology has put information literally at our fingertips. Make this work for you by keeping a link for weather, pollen count, pollution index on your computer desk top and/or cell phone.

Dry windy days are the worst time to be outdoors. Checking pollen and mold counts regularly and avoiding the outside on days when you know irritants are high will give you less exposure to allergens and more control over you life. This small change in lifestyle can pay off with fewer attacks and more days of feeling great.

4. Adding moisture to indoor air can help. When the right amount of water is added to the air, it helps particulates fall out of the air. The fewer particles in the air, the less there are for you to inhale and trigger your allergies. Humidity should be added with care so that it does not create mold and mildew problems..

5. Control indoor air quality with HEPA and carbon filtration. Clean bedroom air is essential since most people spend 1/3 of their lifetime sleeping..

High efficiency particle arresting filters are incredibly effective at removing airborne allergens. They can eliminate particulates that are as small as.3 microns in size.

This means they can take out the allergens that are most often responsible for exacerbating allergies---dust, dust mites, mold and mildew spores, pet dander, and seasonal pollen. This type of technology is what hospitals use to insure clean air.

Carbon filters are well known for their ability to remove gaseous pollutants such as airborne chemicals, odors, and smoke---all of which can cause allergic reactions. With both types of filters, you will literally be able to breathe easier in your bedroom as well as throughout your home.
