Not only does pollen leave dusty trails on our cars but also leaves the tell-tale signs of dripping noses and running eyes. So, while some are breathing a sigh of relief as we move away from winter towards spring, others are crossing their fingers the pollens and the insect bites will not be so bad this year.

Histamine is part of the immune system response to allergens that causes all the symptoms you associate with allergies such as itching skin, redness, swelling, runny nose and general cold like symptoms. Although allergens may come from a variety of sources, plants, animals, insects, chemicals, mould and clothing, the immune response typically stays the same with the release of histamine that the body launches to help get the allergens out of the body. 

Defined as “an abnormal adaptive immune response” studies suggest allergies affects 20% of the population (1). While allergies can develop at any time, one third of sufferers develop symptoms in childhood before the age of 10 and symptoms can impact on daily living in a negative and unpleasant way.

If you are looking for support for your allergy whatever the trigger, Naturo Pharm’s Allermed Spray and Gel supports the skin’s natural immune response to allergens from foods, plants, clothing, chemicals, insect bites and stings.

It can be used by the whole family from infants through to the elderly with no drug interactions.
