As full-service respiratory and medical equipment specialists, Medi-Rents cares about bringing you important health information for your life. Not only is spring the perfect time to talk about allergies from pollen and other sources, we want to inform you about food allergies as well. Today’s blog will bring you helpful information during Allergy Awareness Month.
Food allergies:
Food allergies affect millions of Americans each year because there are so many different types of this common allergy. From peanut allergies to fish allergies, it is important to know about food allergies because you could save a life. Many people with food allergies are deathly allergic, so you can take precautionary measures when it comes to these allergies. If you have young children, it is especially important to understand their food allergies and when you send them to school, understand their peers’ allergies. Tell your children to never share food with a friend who has allergies and let them know to ask an adult if they feel ill from food.
Spring allergies:
May brings beautiful flowers, gardens and plenty of sneezing. Although the spring is beautiful in full bloom, that doesn’t mean that some of us don’t suffer from the higher allergy count. Juro’s Pharmacy Health and Wellness understands how common allergies are, so we have over the counter options for allergy sufferers. The best thing you can do for allergies is to pay attention to the daily pollen count provided by local news organizations and through a simple search on the internet. When the count is high, it is best to avoid the outdoors or areas with plenty of flowers.
May is Allergy Awareness Month and Medi-Rents hopes you are able to survive the spring allergy season. We also hope you are aware of the potential dangers of food allergies. Contact us today to learn about our therapies and services.
