Relief From Pigweed Allergies

Late summer signals the growth and pollination of pigweed. This small, scrubby little weed usually makes its entrance late in the summer when the soil is dry and the grass is less dense.

It is prolific at seed and pollen production. The good news is that it is often used as pig fodder. The bad news is that if you are allergic to it, each plant can potentially send out thousands of pollen grains.

There’s not much you can do to control outdoors, but you can control how much of it stays in your air indoors.

Filtering the air with an air cleaner that is specifically designed to remove pollen and other allergens from the air is one of the best solutions.

Pigweed is not the only weed that sends out pollen during the late summer and early fall. So it is best to choose an air purifier that can also remove pollen from ragweed, curly dock, lambs quarters, pigweed, plantain, sheep sorrel and sagebrush as well.

In addition to these seasonal pollens the best cleaner should also be able to eliminate normal household allergens that can also trigger allergies such as household dust, dust mites, mold and mildew spores and pet dander.

Summertime and the Grass Pollen is Airborne

It’s summertime, and the living is supposed to be easy. But if you’re allergic to grass pollen, summer can be a trying time.

Grass is one of the most popular ground covers, and the pollen can travel for miles on a gentle breeze making it very nearly impossible to avoid.

Here are 3 tips to help you navigate successfully through summer while still having a great time.

1. Keep your immune system working at its best by getting adequate sleep, eating a balanced diet, and exercising regularly. Not only will this plan of action keep your body healthy and more able to fight off infections, but will help you have a more positive outlook and keep cool when life’s daily stresses nip at your heels.

2. If your allergies are severe, consult an allergist and get help with a management plan that can help you navigate through the season without major disruptions in work and vacation time.

3. Use a HEPA air purifier in your home that can filter airborne pollen as small as .3 microns. This makes your home a haven, and allows your body, mind, and spirit time to rejuvenate. HEPA or high efficiency particle arresting technology is the same technology the medical community uses in hospitals to provide clean air.

Grass Pollen Allergies—A 4 Step Plan for Management

If spring has sprung where you live, grass pollination is not far behind. And if you suffer from grass allergies your enjoyment of spring and summer are dependent of your finding a way to manage your grass pollen allergies. Here are 4 non-invasive ways to help you do just that.

1. Get someone else to cut and manage your lawn if your basic ground cover is grass. Avoid being out doors when the grass is cut and immediately afterwards. If you don’t want to turn your lawn’s management over to someone else, be sure to wear a HEPA mask when cutting the grass. Take off your shoes and clothes immediately before tracking through the house, and put your clothes in the washer. Take a shower to rid your hair and skin of any remaining pollen.

2. Pollen is most easily spread on dry, windy days. Look at the pollen count daily and schedule outdoor activities when the pollen count is low. A good rain can clear the air and clear the way for you to enjoy outdoor activities without triggering allergy symptoms.

3. Keep doors and windows closed and use air conditioning to keep the temperature comfortable. When entering and leaving your home, use doors that open on spaces other than your main living areas. Garage doors, mud room doors, enclosed porch doors can all put some distance between the grass pollen and areas of the house where you spend the most time.

4. Regardless of how careful you are, pollen will still get into your home. It’s just a fact of life. Using a high efficiency particle arresting (HEPA) air purifier that is designed to filter pollen is a non-invasive and proactive step to take towards managing grass pollen allergies.

And one of the best benefits is that it removes any type of pollen down to .3 microns as well as other common household pollutants. So not only does it effectively manage your grass pollen allergies, but it give you cleaner and healthier indoor air every day of the year.
