How do allergies work? How have they changed in the last ten or twenty years? Why do so many people suffer from and live with them? In The Complete Guide to Allergies, author and allergist Dr. Catherine Quéquet explores the world of the most common allergies and introduces readers to the strangest and newest allergies that have impacted large numbers of the population in recent years. Pollen, dust mites, seafood, nut, dairy, and gluten are only the tip of the allergy iceberg. If the world of allergies were simple, it would be easy to get rid of them, but the growing number of people suffering from allergies (40% of the population) know that it is far from being that straightforward. An allergy appears when a person with a sensitivity meets an allergen. However, in the polluted and hyper-consuming world in which we live, cocktail effects and risk situations multiply at any moment of the day: when we get dressed, when we sleep, when we eat, and even when we make love! The diagnoses of ear, nose, throat, dermatological, pneumopathic, or ophthalmological manifestations can turn into a real long-term enquiry in which many surprising factors intervene! Dr. Quéquet helps us understand the mechanics of many allergies and brings us the latest knowledge on the subject, making us think about the health issues of our way of life, while also entertaining the reader with her amusing anecdotes, games, and a few allergy-free recipes. We emerge from this read with more knowledge, fewer preconceptions, and agreeably entertained.

Hay fever, also known as allergic rhinitis, is a condition that affects millions of people around the world. It's a seemingly innocuous name for a condition that can make life incredibly challenging for those who suffer from it. Imagine a world where the arrival of spring, with its blossoming flowers and vibrant greenery, doesn't fill you with joy but with dread. Where the simple act of going outdoors can turn into a battle against your own immune system. This is the reality for hay fever sufferers. But hay fever is more than just a seasonal inconvenience. It's a complex interplay between genetics, the environment, and our immune system. It's a condition that can have a profound impact on our day-to-day lives, from the way we sleep to our ability to concentrate at work or school. Yet, despite its prevalence and the discomfort it causes, hay fever often remains misunderstood and underestimated. In this book, we embark on a journey to unravel the mysteries of hay fever. We'll explore the science behind allergies, the various triggers that can set off hay fever symptoms, and the wide range of strategies and treatments available to manage this condition effectively. Whether you're a hay fever sufferer looking for ways to alleviate your symptoms or someone seeking to understand and support a loved one with allergies, this book is your comprehensive guide to all things hay fever. Throughout these pages, you'll find not only the latest medical insights and treatment options but also personal stories from individuals who have faced the challenges of hay fever head-on. Their experiences serve as a reminder that, while hay fever can be debilitating, it doesn't have to define your life.

Fifty million Americans suffer from allergies to certain foods, pollens, animal danders, dust mites and other less common allergens. Although the most common symptoms, from watery eyes to hives, are not life-threatening, there is a substantial cost in health care spending associated with these conditions. Americans spent about $18 billion each year on asthma care in 2009. And of the $19 billion spent each year on over-the-counter remedies, a substantial portion is spent on allergy medications. Now two specialists in allergy medicine reveal how to manage allergies safely and effectively, and live more comfortable, symptom-free lives. Allergies debunks the many myths about allergies and offers long-term help to both seasonal and chronic sufferers. This comprehensive and authoritative resource helps you make informed choices about everything from diagnostic tests to nasal antihistamines and corticosteroid sprays, from homeopathic remedies for poison ivy and insect bites to desensitizing therapies and emergency relief for severe allergic reactions and much more, including: • A detailed evaluation of the most common over-the-counter drugs • How to minimize allergens like mites, pollen and danders in your house. • Useful advice for life threatening allergies such as food and stinging insects. • Allergies and exercise • Allergies and pregnancy • Skin disorders from allergies • When allergy shots are unnecessary • Self-treatment versus traditional care • How to recognize and avoid allergy scam treatments • Allergies in children and the elderly • Plus a comprehensive guide to reliable information on the internet
