ANNOUNCER:
After months indoors, you’re finally ready to get outside and enjoy nicer weather. YOU LACE UP YOUR SNEAKERS AND STEP OUTSIDE BUT BEFORE YOU KNOW IT, YOU’RE COUGHING AND SNEEZING WITH A SORE THROAT AND RUNNY NOSE And here you thought you could enjoy spring without suffering. Seasonal allergies affect approximately 46 percent of people in the United States today. Pam O’Brien, executive editor of Fitness Magazine has some tips for the millions who suffer.
PAM O’BRIEN:
“No one wants to be sidelined by allergies just as the weather is getting nice. But on high pollen days hold off on out door exercise until afternoon if you are an allergy sufferer because pollen levels spike early in the day. Also, take a look at your home, keep your windows closed, change furnace and air conditioner filters every three months and change your clothes and even wash your hair more often to get rid of allergens. To relieve coughs or sore, scratchy throats associated with allergies, try HALLS, which starts working within ten seconds.
