Allergies are common, affecting an estimated 50 million Americans. But what causes them? The answer is complicated, as allergies can be caused by a variety of factors, including genetics, environment and lifestyle choices.
One of the most common causes of allergies is exposure to allergens, which are substances that can cause an allergic reaction. Allergens can include pollen, dust mites, pet dander and certain foods.
When someone is exposed to an allergen, their immune system mistakenly identifies it as a threat and produces antibodies to fight it. These antibodies attach themselves to special cells called mast cells. When the allergen is encountered again, it binds to these antibodies on the mast cells and triggers a release of histamine and other chemicals.
