Book description
These days an ever increasing number of people are developing
allergies in many different forms, such as skin rashes, breathing
difficulties and even overwhelming tiredness. The reasons for these
allergies are very varied - environmental pollution, food additives
and pollen are a few of the more common ones. This guide offers three
invaluable approaches: first, allergic symptoms are listed and
cross-referenced to known allergens and suitable tests to discover
which really is the cause; second, if you know you suffer from a
particular allergy such as hayfever, you can go straight to that
section for advice, and third, the A-Z of allergens gives specific
advice on testing to find out whether you do have an allergy to that
substance, and if so, how best to avoid it in everyday life.
