ALLERGIES: A modern epidemic!

Etymologically, the word "allergy" is compound and derives from the combination of the words "allos + ergon" where "allos" means different from normal and "ergon" means the body's action.

Allergy is a disease or a condition characterised by the excessive and incorrect reaction of our organism against innocent - harmless substances, the allergens. Allergens do not cause any reaction in non-allergic individuals.
