Hay Fever 2010 Late and fierce

Hay Fever 2010: Late and fierce: Due to the long-lasting cold this year, the pollen will start a little later, but then with intense intensity.

Late and violent: Due to the long-lasting cold this year, the pollen count will begin a little later, but then with intense intensity. Normally the pollen flight starts in mid-January. During this time the alder and the hazel begin to bloom. In addition to the late flowering of birch and alder, birch pollen will be added in 2010. Because in a two-year turn the birch flight is a bit stronger. The birch trees usually bloom in mid-March and have the highest activity in April. Allergy sufferers can be happy when rainfall and damp weather curb pollen.

For this reason, allergists suspect a pronounced pollen count in the spring of 2010, which could lead to severe symptoms in people with hay fever and allergic asthma. Since the shortness of breath can be life-threatening, sufferers and physicians should keep a close eye on the symptoms this year. Because according to the president of the Association of German Allergists (Äda) Hans Merk, even people who were previously symptom-free, this year for the first time could show an allergy. The Äda estimates that in Germany about 20 million people, equivalent to almost a quarter of the population, suffer from hay fever.

Naturopathy tries to find and treat the strong reaction of the immune system. One of the reasons that is repeatedly discussed is the so-called „Leaky good syndrome“. It comes at the intestinal mucosa by a malfunction to an irritation of the immune system. (Thorsten Fischer, Naturopath Osteopathy, 17.03.2010)
