The naturopath of La Boite à Grains Renée Jean gives you her advice on how to boost your immune system and fight allergies.
According to the World Health Organization, allergies are the sixth most common disease worldwide. Respiratory allergies are the most common, with 10-20% of the population suffering from allergic rhinitis and 2.5 million people suffering from asthma.
Allergies are disproportionate immune reactions to antigens or allergens. These may be food, airborne particles (pollen, animal hair), medication, mites or venom.
