Homeopathy for allergies

An allergy is a reaction of the body’s own immune system to an otherwise harmless substance. This excessive reaction of the body manifests itself with often typical symptoms such as redness, rashes, itching and swelling. This leads to irritation of the body, which occurs for example on the skin or in the lungs.

Depending on the severity of the allergy, it can lead to a long-term illness or just a single allergic outbreak. A central substance that plays an important role in allergies is an excessive release of histamine. The most common allergies include hay fever and asthma, i.e. allergic diseases of the lungs. Contact allergies, i.e. allergic reactions of the skin, and food allergies are also very common.
