Allergies happen when the body reacts to a trigger, called an allergen, resulting in inflammation.
There are many types of allergies, including hayfever, which is characterised by symptoms like a runny nose and red, watery and itchy eyes, and eczema, which is characterised by inflamed skin.1
It’s estimated that one in four people in Australia are allergic to some sort of trigger or allergen.1
