All entries below this section are devoted to air-borne allergies and how to control them.
Where as food allergies are largely a matter of controlling what you eat, controlling air-borne allergies involves the difficult task of managing air quality. Good air quality is good for everyone, and bad air quality makes everyone tired, so at least everyone benefits from improving air quality.

air bornne nut allergies
Can peanut/tree nut allergies be air bornne and if so how does one prevent a reaction?
Can a corn allergy be air-borne?
I have recently become allergic to corn after the birth of my son. Usually my tongue swells and I get bumps down the side of my tongue.
Tonight my hubby made some microwave pop corn and started to eat it beside me. My tongue started to swell!!!! I did not touch one piece of pop corn nor my husband who was eating it.
Has anyone heard of this before.. I’m quite worried I’m never going to get to go to the movies ever again.
Any help and info on this allergy would be really appreciated.
Thanks.
I also have an airborne allergy. hear is some advice.
I have a severe allergy to nuts. which i developed when i was 15. Even if someone in the room eats anything containing the product.. i go into anaphylactic shock. It seems as though you also have an airborne allergy. My suggestion to you would be to immediately see an allergist. You may need to carry an epi pen or two around with you. Also, keep benadryl near by. (or any antihistamine) Each reaction you have will only continue to get worse, if you aren’t now going into full blown anaphylactic shock, it is important you avoid popcorn. I hope this has helped you, and good luck in the future.
