Pet Intolerance is a type of allergy caused due to an exposure to pet hair, dander etc, and a person who is susceptible to such a condition starts exhibiting symptoms soon after being exposed to such pet allergens or upon direct contact with pets. Just like testing and medications, proper nutrition is important for avoiding or managing this problem as much as possible. It is a truth that foods are not a real cure. Vegetables and fruits are perfect for the entire body as these are filled with nutrients. There are other foods, which can be part of a good diet and can ensure good health and save the body from pet allergies.
Omega-3 fatty acids
Omega-3 fatty acids are able to reduce inflammation, which is a common symptom arising after pet exposure. These fatty acids are present in seafood such as mackerel, salmon, tuna and more. Each week, you should opt for 2 – 3 servings of fish. A Japanese study proved that women who consumed more fish suffer from less hay fever also referred to as allergic rhinitis, a common symptom of pet intolerance.
Local Honey
There is a mixed result from research about local honey and its effectiveness in curing allergies. Taking a small amount of honey early on can help you to develop tolerance to pet dander, birch pollen and other minute particles. Studies have revealed that people who consume honey regularly develop better immunity, which helps their body to fight off diseases better.
Kefir
This is a yogurt drink which is rich in probiotics – a type of bacteria that is beneficial and generally lives within the gut. Studies show that increasing the level of probiotics can help the body to prevent pet intolerance allergies and get alleviated from the same. Probiotics are present in fermented foods. These can be found in rich amounts in Kimchi and Sauerkraut. You should choose packaged yogurts with the label reading “live active cultures”.
