Allergies continue in winter weather

Winter allergies are often caused by
poor indoor air quality.

Usually, people with allergies tend to take a breath of relief when the pollinating season is over or when the first frost brings relief from irritating mold spores.

But the colder weather also means people are spending more time indoors – and indoor allergies are on the rise, especially in combination with asthma.

Allergic symptoms or headaches can often be traced back to exposure to indoor air pollutants such as dust and dust mites, pet dander, smoke, household sprays and chemicals as well as gas fumes.

Even mold growing on indoor plants, Christmas trees or decorations may become a problem for those suffering from allergies.

The experts recommend

• Keeping the indoor humidity level low (below 35 percent) to help prevent mold growth
• Using the bathroom and kitchen fans when showering, taking a bath, cooking and boiling water to get rid of the humidity and odors
• Cleaning regularly with a HEPA vacuum to decrease particles, dust mites and pet allergen levels
• Replacing furnace filters every two to three months
• Washing bed linens and night clothes in hot water to kill dust mites
• Banning plants from the bedroom
• Minimizing contact with pets like dogs and cats and keeping them out of the bedroom
• Removing dust from holiday decorations and the tree

Remove allergens from the indoor air in your home

A multistage filtration system removes
the widest range of pollutants.

Tired of the stuffy feeling you get after being indoors for too long?

An air purifier does double duty – it cleans the ambient air and it moves the air around, so you can always breathe easier.

AllerAir’s air purifiers can be moved from room to room and they feature the most effective filter combination with activated carbon, HEPA and UV (optional), removing indoor air pollutants such as chemicals, gases, odors, particles, dust, mold spores and mold mycotoxins as well as bacteria and viruses.

AllerAir has developed a number of air purifiers specifically for allergies and asthma.

Suddenly feeling allergic to your cat or dog? It may be sticky spores not dander...

If you suddenly seem to be sneezing and wheezing whenever your beloved pet comes around there's still reason to hope. The cause may not be cat or dog dander, but the tree and flower spores they're carrying into your home. 

In many parts of the U.S. this year pollen levels have been consistently high, triggering allergic responses even in people who have never before experienced seasonal allergies.

  

Allergist Dr. Joseph Leija of the Gottlieb Memorial Hospital in Melrose Park, IL suggests you wipe fur and paws with a towel you store in a resealable bag between uses to minimize contamination.

Experts also suggest:

• Washing hands frequently, especially after handling your pet
• Changing your clothes and showering when you come in from outdoors
• Leaving shoes at the front door to avoid tracking in pollen  
• Using an air purifier for allergies to reduce airborne contaminants indoors
• Using your dryer instead of line-drying clothes 
• Keeping windows closed

Allergies May Protect Against Brain Cancer

There could be an upside to all that sneezing and wheezing: Allergies may protect against brain cancer, new research suggests.

The more allergies a person has, the lower his or her risk of developing a glioma, the most common type of brain tumor, according to a study published in Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention. Gliomas account for more than half of the 22,000 new cases of brain and nervous system cancers diagnosed in the United States each year.

Researchers analyzed surveys from more than 10,000 people with and without gliomas; all were asked whether they had doctor-diagnosed allergies and if they took antihistamines. The approximately 400 participants with brain tumors were likeliest to report being allergy-free. The researchers did not, however, specify how much more likely someone without allergies was to develop brain cancer than someone with allergies, CNN reports. Though the reason for the association is unclear, the study authors speculate that an overactive immune system, which causes allergies, increases the chances of warding off cancer.

Best Air Purifiers for Allergies and Allergy Relief

Are facial tissues becoming a hot commodity in your home? Seasonal allergies are taking sufferers by storm in 2010, with millions of American seeking some sort of allergy relief. Probably most surprising is the number of first-time allergy sufferers. According to experts, the pollen count has been hit record highs in some regions. In some parts of the country 6,000 pollen particles per cubic meter of air have been recorded – you only need 10 particles per cubic meter to trigger a reaction in some people.  

Best Air Purifiers for Allergies and Allergy Relief

You can’t control the pollen count outdoors, but you can control your indoor environment. Using a room air cleaner with the right filtration can help clean the air of airborne pollen, mold, chemicals, dust and other triggers which aggravate the respiratory system. Look for a room air cleaner with a medical-grade HEPA filter which can remove over 99% of airborne particles and an activated carbon filter which removes chemicals, gases and odors. Among our top sellers for allergy relief is the AllerAir Air Medic which is designed to be used 24/7 for continuously clean air. Other units which are best for allergies:


4000 Exec
5000 Exec
5000 HEPA

Additional Tips for Allergy Relief:

• For your medication to be most effective, take it 30 minutes before going outside
• Keep your doors and windows closed
• Dry laundry indoors
• Shower before bed
• Wipe down your pets when they come in from outdoors
• Leave your shoes outside or at the door to avoid tracking in pollen and mold
