| Allergies |
| by Kathleen Boehning |
It may be as simple as a
runny nose or so severe as to be life threatening. It’s an exaggerated
immune response to relatively innocuous compounds ingested, inhaled or
applied to the skin. Allergies are ranked among the top 10 chronic
conditions in the United States, affecting approximately 50 million
people. Allergies are the “fifth season,” right in there between spring
and summer or fall and winter, depending on which type of allergy you
have. The name “allergy” is an umbrella term for many names including
hay hay fever, hive, angioedema, asthma (allergy-induced asthma
specifically), food allergy, and on and on.
Along with the rise in the prevalence of allergies there have been a
myriad of new drugs to counteract the symptoms. But many, if not all,
of these drugs fall short in that their effect is transient and may in
fact diminish over time, requiring higher doses or stronger drugs.
Their shortcomings are directly related to the complexity of the
allergic response. Most allergy drugs target two primary endpoints of
the allergic response – histamine production and inflammation. But
here’s the problem: histamine release and inflammation are the result
of the allergic response not the cause. That is, most drugs focus on
treating the symptoms resulting from histamine and inflammation rather
than addressing the underlying cause itself. There is an alternative
that takes a different approach and is clinically shown to reduce the
symptoms of airborne allergens. Introducing Honest Weight’s
Aller-7® Support.
Remember, allergies are an exaggerated immune response to what are
normally harmless compounds. It (the immune response) is a complex
cascade of activities that ultimately results in the release of
histamine. Histamine is normally produced and stored in “mast cells.”
These specialized immune cells, like a balloon filled with water, break
open to release their cargo when instructed to do so by the immune
system (a process known as “degranulation”). The sensitivity of mast
cells to allergens determines the severity of an allergic response.
Aller-7® Support is a unique, patented blend of seven standardized
herbal extracts clinically tested to promote respiratory health and
normal breathing seasonally and all year round. Aller-7® works by
stabilizing mast cells, reducing their sensitivity to airborne
allergens and preventing “degranulation.” Clinical studies have
concluded that Aller-7® Support:
o Promotes healthy respiratory and immune systems*
o Promotes clear airway passages and normal breathing*
o Stabilizes mast cells, which promote respiratory
health*
o Neutralizes free radicals, which can damage the
body's respiratory and immune systems*
These same studies have shown that Aller-7® Support is non-toxic.
This is not a simple antihistamine or over-the-counter drug.
Aller-7® Support promotes a normal immune response to potential
allergens. So if you’d like to go back to a four season year, try our
Aller-7® Support and breathe a little easier.
