[HealthyIndia] Childhood allergy epidemic on the rise worldwide.

[Guest guest]

Childhood allergies, asthma, eczema, hey fever are all

on the rise due to changes in food habits and

lifestyle of parents that is reflected in the

offspring. Medicines might also not work in all cases.

Only a change in food habits with intake of more

natural fruits and vegetables, basic exercises and

changes in life style together with yoga and pranayam

are necessary.
