One in five Cypriots suffer from spring allergies
One in five Cypriots suffers from allergic rhinitis, with olive, grass, corn pollen, ragweed pollen, and the fungus Alternaria being common triggers. Respiratory allergies are often hereditary and linked to other allergic conditions, but can also develop in adults. The spring allergy season in Cyprus starts in March and can be influenced by winter weather conditions. House dust mites are another prevalent allergen in Cyprus. Allergic rhinitis can impact quality of life, travel plans, and social activities, and untreated allergies can worsen over time. Pitsios recommends a natural lifestyle and proper treatment for those with allergies. Early exposure to nature can help strengthen the immune system and prevent allergies.
