Americans are suffering from an allergy epidemic. Studies show that spring allergies are getting worse every year. Why? And not only are allergies making us miserable, they can be making us fatter. Just fifty years ago, 1 in 30 people had allergies. Today, that number is 1 in 3.

With The Allergy Solution (May 10, 2016; Hay House), award-winning doctor Leo Galland, M.D., reveals the shocking rise of hidden allergies that lead to unexplained weight gain, anxiety, fatigue, ADHD, depression, digestive problems, and much more. He presents remarkable research showing how each of these is linked to the immune imbalance at the root of allergies, and offers his proven plan to reverse allergies without drugs.

Pollution, unhealthy eating habits, stress and overuse of antibiotics can all inflame allergies. The Allergy Solution takes an in-depth look at how readers can rebuild their immunity through nutrition and lifestyle. It lays out an easy nutritional program, starting with a 3-Day Power Wash designed to “clear the tracks,” to help take back control.

Dr. Galland’s clinical experience and unique insights into cutting-edge science will guide those who suffer from known allergies and unexplained illness back to health. Among other issues, he can discuss:

  • Is a Hidden Allergy Making You Fat? – A Yale University study shows that prescription antihistamines can be linked to increased body weight.
  • The Power of Good Bacteria – Recent research shows that good bacteria can actually shift the immune system and lessen allergy symptoms, improving how you feel.
  • The Toxic Elephant in Your Home – Are your cleaning products or your morning routine of chemical-laced shampoo, shaving cream, and moisturizers making you ill
  • Driving Under the Influence of Allergies – Pollen allergies are comparable to having two alcoholic cocktails before taking the wheel, according to research
  • Climate Change Increases Pollen Counts – Air pollution and global warming boost the amount of pollen being released by plants, and make the pollen more toxic, worsening allergies at an alarming rate.
