Pollen is responsible for seasonal allergies with symptoms ranging from a runny nose, sneezing and watery eyes to labored breathing and anaphylaxis.
While C60 is no substitute for medical intervention for severe seasonal allergies, the supplement can help soothe mild symptoms and help you enjoy being outdoors.
What is an Allergic Reaction?
An allergic reaction is initiated by a type of cell in your body known as a mast cell. When the membranes in your eyes, nose or throat are exposed to pollen, your mast cells recognize the particles as pathogens and initiate an immune response.
Mast cells contain high levels of histamines and cytokines, which are released into your bloodstream, causing inflammation which is exhibited as typical allergy symptoms.
How Can Carbon 60 Help Alleviate Seasonal Allergies?
A 2007 study published in the Journal of Immunology suggested that C60 works on the cells responsible for producing histamines and inhibits cytokine production. However, pollen isn’t the only substance that can activate the release of histamines. Free radicals that cause oxidative stress also cause an allergic response.
Carbon 60, also known as fullerene or buckyballs, has a unique spherical structure that traps and neutralizes free radicals, soaking them up like a sponge. This prevents the active oxygen atoms from activating the mast cells which control histamine and cytokine release effectively eliminating the allergic response to the environmental trigger.
