health nerds – Der Podcast über artgerechtes Leben
Many questions have reached us about the current podcast episode: Hay fever – immune reaction out of control: Why more and more people are allergic to pollen. Here in the HEALTH NERDS consultation hour, our experts from the species-appropriate science team provide answers:
„Are allergies hereditary?""
„Are there any advances in vaccines or gene therapy for allergies?""
„Can an undetected intolerance to histamine be responsible for my allergies being so severe?""
„Why do new allergies occur more frequently during the perimenopause or menopause?""
„I am allergic to peanuts - does this also make me more likely to develop a pollen allergy, for example? (Keyword: cross allergy)"" - thank you very much for your questions on our latest podcast episode ""Hay fever - immune reaction out of control: Why more and more people are allergic to pollen"". Matthias Baum from the HEALTH NERDS science team provides answers here in the consultation hour.
On the main episode: „A single tree can produce up to 5.5 million pollen – per day! And these often fly hundreds of kilometers.“ – Matthias Baum from the HEALTH NERDS science team provides a detailed look at pollen allergies in this episode.
In Germany alone, around 12 million people are affected by them – and the trend is rising sharply. But why does our immune system react so violently to harmless plant pollen? What are the biological mechanisms behind hay fever? What influence do the gut microbiome, diet and stress have on these allergic reactions? What is the hygiene hypothesis all about? And what is the evolutionary advantage?
Podcast host Felix Moese talks to the health scientist about modern diagnostic procedures, the effect of hyposensitization, established allergy tests and surprising facts: Why does city air make pollen more aggressive? Why are more and more people over 50 suddenly developing a pollen allergy? And what role does the neurotransmitter histamine play in allergies? If you have an allergy, you don't have to put up with it! Matthias provides specific tips and life hacks for anyone who wants to get their pollen allergy under control.
