Air pollution that blankets the Northwest can actually heighten your allergy symptoms, even if the allergies that usually affect your airways aren't in season. Outdoor allergens, like pollen, are very sticky. They cling to your clothing, shoes, even your hair and follow you indoors. Did you know air pollution can play a role in exacerbating allergies? While allergy medication can help alleviate your symptoms, breathing Healthy Air will help prevent them while you're at home.

"According to the leading experts in allergy, an allergic reaction begins in the immune system. Our immune system protects us from invading organisms that can cause illness. If you have an allergy, your immune system mistakes an otherwise harmless substance as an invader." – AAAAI
