Common Causes of Allergic Reaction
Maria Fabbro, N.D. at Total Therapy helps patients to discover and recover from the allergies that are keeping them from living their fullest lifestyles with optimal health. Common allergens that Dr. Fabbro helps alleviate include:
What is an allergy?
Simply put, an allergy is a response to an allergen. One person’s body may not have a problem with a certain substance, however, an entirely different person’s immune system may declare the same substance as potentially hazardous.
When the immune system kicks in, it will create antibodies that trigger the production and release of histamines. These histamines are what cause the bodily reactions, the teary-eyes, runny nose, coughing, that which attempts to rid your body of its invaders.
What are the risk factors for allergies?
When it comes to the risk factors for allergies, there are host factors and environmental factors.
The host factors for certain allergies are sex, ethnicity, age, and the most telling, family history.
Environmental factors are where and how a person lives. These include:
- exercise and diet
- geography
- preexisting conditions
- heavy metal exposure
- exposure to certain illnesses
- alcohol consumption
- smoke exposure (especially during childhood)
Complications of Allergies
Unresolved allergies can lead to increased health risks that may present an immediate danger, such as anaphylaxis (a severe and sometimes life-threatening reaction), ear and lung infections, and fungal infections, to name a few.
Allergies left untreated may also cause long term complications, such as a higher risk for developing asthma, and decreased immune responses that would fight off infections or illness. Allergies may also become worse with time.
Low Dose Antigen Therapy for Allergies
Low Dose Antigen Therapy, or LDA is a customized treatment option for patients suffering from mild to severe allergies.
LDA combines small samples of the allergens (in doses that do not cause severe side effects) that are affecting an individual with an enzyme called beta-glucuronidase, which stimulates the immunologic response that reduces the body’s reactions to allergens.
This therapy stimulates an increase in the T-regulator cells, which are the regulatory cells that suppress immune responses, in other words: preventing your immune system from attacking benign intruders.
With Maria Fabbro, N.D. at Total Therapy‘s help, Burnaby patients are discovering customized LDA therapy to help their bodies rebalance their immune response and are living their best symptom-free lives.
