Cold and allergy symptoms can overlap, but there are some distinctions. Cold symptoms often include a sore throat, cough, and sometimes fever, while allergies typically involve sneezing, itchy or watery eyes, and a runny or stuffy nose without fever. Allergies also tend to recur with exposure to specific triggers, like pollen or pet dander, whereas colds are usually caused by viral infections and resolve within a week or two. . . #anaphylaxisawareness #cold #milkallergy #eggallergy #toocold #coldsummer #foodallergyawareness #temperaturecontrol #allergymum #foodallergy #coldday #allergykids #allergylife #allergyawareness #nutallergy #coldandflu #dairyallergy #foodallergyfamily #allergy #itscold #anaphylaxis #stopanaphylaxis

People with dust mite allergies often experience fewer symptoms at higher altitudes. This is because dust mites thrive in warm, humid environments, and higher altitudes tend to have lower humidity and cooler temperatures. As a result, places like mountainous regions or high-altitude cities can have significantly lower dust mite populations, leading to less exposure and milder allergy symptoms for those affected. So, for allergy sufferers, a vacation in the mountains might not only be a scenic escape but also a reprieve from their dust mite allergies! . . . . . . #DustMiteAllergy #AllergyRelief #DustMites #AllergySufferer #DidYouKnow #IndoorAllergies #AllergyPrevention #AllergyCare #DustMitePrevention #AllergyManagement #HomeAllergy#AllergyFriendly #AllergySymptoms #HealthyLiving #AllergyFreeHome #AllergyHelp #AllergyAware #DustMiteRemoval #AllergySolutions #IndoorAirQuality #AllergySafe #CleanAir #DustMiteFacts #AllergyEducation #HomeCleaningTips #AllergyTreatment #DustMiteReduction #AllergenControl #HealthyHome #FunFact

We are finally experiencing some warmer weather here in the UK, but what impact will this have on those suffering from indoor allergies? Pollen and mould spores have been found to circulate more with the warmer summer weather, making seasonal allergies worse. When the air is warmer and more humid, it becomes easy for allergens to float from anywhere inside or outside your home. This includes common places like flower beds and lawns but also grasses, weeds, trees, and any plants nearby. As a result, many allergy sufferers will have a stronger and more uncontrollable reaction to the increase in temperature! Our home care range has been formulated to assist with this, giving allergy sufferers a natural remedy to combat the symptoms of an allergic reaction in any given season!
