Allergies and sensitivities

Allergies and sensitivities are reactions by the immune system to substances that are usually harmless. Allergies involve the immune system producing an exaggerated response to things like pollen, dust, or certain foods, leading to symptoms such as sneezing, swelling, or difficulty breathing. Sensitivities, on the other hand, cause milder or delayed reactions, often related to digestive or skin issues, without involving the immune system's full response. Both can interfere with daily life, but allergies tend to be more immediate and severe. Identifying and managing these reactions helps maintain health and comfort.
