Spring has officially sprung.
The birds are chirping, the plants are waking up, and the earth is on the move again. It's a beautiful time of year—and here in the Pacific Northwest, we welcome the lifting of the cold, the retreat of the rain, and the chance to head back outside to enjoy nature's splendor and get our gardens growing.
But spring's return comes at a high cost for many due to seasonal allergies.
If you're one of the millions of people who suffer from seasonal allergies, stepping outside can bring so much discomfort and suffering that it hardly seems worth it. You might choose to stay inside, avoiding the warm, sunny days simply because your allergies make being outside unbearable.
In this episode, we're diving into the dynamics of seasonal allergies. There's a lot to cover, so this will be a two-part series.
You may just be looking for remedies—and we'll get there—but first, we need some context. Understanding the "why" behind seasonal allergies provides a broader perspective on what's happening and how to identify the root cause.
In Part One, we'll explore the background and context of seasonal allergies, including:
-
The contributing factors behind allergies and intolerance
-
An esoteric perspective to complement physiological understanding
-
The difference between allergies and intolerances
-
What immunological load is—and how to remain asymptomatic
With this foundation in place, Part Two will cover the therapeutic strategy and approach. Let's dive right in!
