It’s estimated that 60 million Americans suffer from
some type of allergy. That’s 1 out of 4. It’s the 5th
highest chronic disease in America and the 3rd most
common chronic disease in children.
Many people suffer from more than one allergy type.
Pollen from trees, grass and weeds are in the
indoor/outdoor allergy category. Other common
indoor/outdoor allergy triggers are mold spores, dust
mite and cockroach allergen and cat, dog and rodent
dander.
About 75% of people with allergies have indoor/outdoor
allergies. The most common pet allergy is cat dander.
Skin allergies are another common allergy. The most
common causes of skin allergies are plants like poison
oak, ivy and sumac.
Allergic reactions can also be caused by skin contact
with latex, cockroach and dust mites and even some
foods. Skin allergies are the main allergy for about
7% of allergy sufferers.
While we here a lot about food and drug allergies,
they’re the primary allergy of only about 6% of
allergy sufferers. Food allergies are more common in
children.
Peanuts, tree nuts, milk, eggs, wheat, soy, fish and
shellfish are responsible for 90% of all food
allergies. Food allergies claim over 200 lives yearly.
When it comes to common drug allergies, penicillin is
the winner.
Almost 400 Americans die every year from allergies to
penicillin.
Latex and insect allergies both claim around 4% of
allergy sufferers. Latex allergies result in 10 deaths
a year and nearly 100 deaths a year are the result of
insect allergies.
