      Hey Elliehoran

      Why some people have allergies remains a modern medical mystery. Why should the body react so powerfully to something in nature that’s not harmful? And why just a minority of people? Some believe it is the immune system making a mistake and acting when it shouldn’t. Apart form that we don’t really know why certain people are allergic to things!

      Do you have any allergies? I don’t 🙂
