"This is a layperson's book on Chinese medicine and hay fever or allergic rhinitis. The information it contains will also be very helpful for people suffering from allergic asthma. For many years, I myself suffered from allergic rhinitis, both seasonal and to animal dander, and from asthma. Since learning Chinese medicine and living by its precepts, I have not had an episode of asthma in many years and do not even own any asthma medication. I do not have hay fever, and I can even be around cats without feeling that dreaded itching in my eyes and constriction in my lungs.

Chinese medicine has helped me learn what was at the root of my allergies and how to correct especially my diet in order to eliminate my allergies' fundamental causes. As a professional practitioner of Chinese medicine, I have also helped many other Western patients overcome their allergies as well. Therefore, I know from firsthand experience what Chinese medicine has to offer sufferers of allergic rhinitis and allergic asthma, and my desire to share this valuable information with a larger audience has prompted me to write this book. If you follow the advice it contains, I believe that you too will experience fewer and less severe allergic attacks and that your general level of health and well-being will definitely improve. Good reading and good health!"
