Pollen protection via skin

Allergies are one of the most widespread diseases of our time. So-called type I allergies like hay fever and pollen allergy are caused by aeroallergens. It is well known that allergens are stressing the respiratory tract and the eyes.


But did you know that the skin is also an important entry point for aeroallergens?

Recent scientific studies prove that aeroallergens like pollen can also enter the body via the skin and are involved in causing allergic symptoms. Therefore Eucerin® has developed pH5 skin care to:

  • Reduce the allergen load in the body
  • Acivate skin's natural defense
  • For sensitive normal skin



In 90% of all cases, allergic people suffer from type I allergies. 

The majority are reactions to:

  • pollen
  • animal hair
  • house dust mites

 

Primary symptoms of an allergic reaction are itching, red, burning eyes and sneezing. But the skin can also often react very sensitively.
