Uncomplicated Understanding & Simple Solutions for Allergies

The primary reason for an allergy is due to an excess ingestion of food, contaminated air, water or a deficiency in the body due to lack of mineral, vitamin and physical energy. The deficiency and excess conditions result in toxicity which can spread from one organ to the next, disrupting organ function and homeostasis or general balance.

The human body is always working on maintaining balance and involves every organ and system to maintain that harmony. For instance, if the lungs and digestion are not able to manage seasonal pollens, mold and microbes then:

the nasal passages will excessively drain to clear out the overflowing toxins.
The lungs - bronchi - trachea produce mucus, all to assist the cleansing of excess.
liver function may become overtaxed and over-heated thus drying out mucus making it difficult to clear mucus obstruction and decreasing immune function

There are many examples of allergic reaction that are an extension of an excess/deficient constitution type. The purpose of this lens is to comprensively, present respiratory allergy and list more bonafide solutions that are finally corrective. Most allergic conditions take years to arrive. Cutting out so called, non-perfoming organs is irreversible, do not resolve the underlying cause and, many times, prevents the ability of the body to heal itself. Below, you will discover strategies for improving and alleviating allergic interence with the quality of your life.
