Seasonal allergies, including those caused by hay and grass, can be quite troublesome.
As someone who has endured seasonal allergies for the majority of my life, I understand that they can be incredibly challenging to manage. The condition commonly referred to as “hay fever” is medically recognized as allergic rhinitis, and it’s known to affect many individuals.”
In Canada, the most common allergies are pollen or grasses (40.7% ), followed by certain animals (28.5%), dust mites (27.3%). In the United States, according to WebMD allergies are the 6th leading chronic disease. About 30% of adults and 40% of children have allergies. This translates to more than 50 million Americans suffering from allergies each year.
You may ask what is the cause of pollen allergies? Pollen is a fine powder produced by trees, flowers, grasses, and weeds to fertilize other plants. However, when you breathe in pollen, your immune system identifies it as a threat. Consequently it produces chemicals, including histamine, to fight against the pollen.
HEPA help for Hay Fever
The good news for those with allergies is there are solutions to help reduce the effects. Air filters, particularly those with a true HEPA filter, can indeed be helpful for people with allergies. They work by filtering small particles out of the air, which may provide some relief from allergy symptoms such as sneezing, coughing, and congestion.
The LG PuriCare 360 HIT is an air purifier that features a True HEPA filter and a unique 360-degree purification design. Capable of covering a room size of 62.8 square meters (m²), it’s designed to provide thorough air cleaning by capturing fine dust, allergens like pollen and pet dander, and other contaminants as small as 0.1μm-0.3μm in size. The 360° Purification means that it will absorb pollutants from all directions, including low to the ground,
And unlike some of its competitors, the LG PuriCare™ 360° HIT Air Purifier can operate at whisper-quiet sound levels as low as 23 decibels. Enjoy the benefits of cleaner air anytime, day or night, without distraction.
Smart Features to Enhance Quality of Life
What I love about this product is the smart devices that are not only cool, but will enhance your quality of life. First of all, the air purifier has a color-coded indicator that reflects air quality based on a PM 1.0 sensor detecting system, with red indicating poor air quality and green indicating good air quality.
In addition, the purifier can be controlled and monitored remotely via the LG ThinQ® app, and it’s also compatible with voice-activated services like Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa.
Perhaps this year, your seasonal allergies can be reduced a little bit with a lot of HEPA help from the LG PuriCare™ 360° HIT Air Purifier.
