I have year round allergies. Constant. I think most of what I react to is indoor stuff, not pollen. Should I get ultra breathable or nano super defense? My other question is how can I get them to fit right? I have used the sizing/fitting/measuring...

I also had fitting problems. Go to the woodyknows website and leave an email for them - they are extremely helpful and should be able to help you find the right ones for your nose. Once I got the right ones it made living with allergies SOOO much better!

They might be. I had to use the medium because my nostrils are very small. They fit me perfect. I would give them a try. I am very allergic to pollen and they worked very well for me.

Hi! That's what I thought too, but apparently the tight weave of the fabric makes it impossible for the dust mites to get through. It must work because we've used other covers where myself and my daughter would wake up sneezing and stuffy, but with this cover we are waking up feeling much better. I do wash them every time I wash my sheets which probably helps. (As an aside, do you know that most pillows can be washed regularly in hot water to kill dust mites? I recently found this out and my pillows are now squeaky clean and still fluffy!) I liked this product because of the good warranty, as previous covers fell apart after washing several times but now I feel like I can fall back on the warranty if necessary. Anyhow, here is some info that I found online that explains the company's answer to your question. Hope this is helpful! Cheers! :) Allersoft is the most popular allergy-proof fabric we carry because it is 100% pure cotton and lab-tested to block allergens and dust mites. It's an amazing fabric that is made in the USA with a patented, special super-tight weave. Don't confuse thread count with allergy protection. 100% pure cotton for the ultimate in comfort without sacrificing efficacy. No added chemicals or harsh treatments. With a mean flow pore size diameter of 4.91 microns, this fabric is one of the most effective barriers against pet dander, dust mites, bed bugs and other harmful allergens.

My husband & I are highly allergic. We only use Free & Clear & Vani products. They are wonderful. With face washing, I splash water, then use a few drops of liquid cleanser, gently wash, & splash a few more times, then pat dry. We live in Las Vegas, NV, so our climate is hard on skin. These products have been a lifesaver. I'm 59, & no one believes it! My facial skin is soft & supple. There are few wrinkles.

I just buy the Protec, as its made for it. I'm hesitant about putting anything more. like a liquid. However, since we have a wood stove and it dries out the air, I have to use something and my ENT doctor said humidifier are full of germs, so I use the easy drop in Protec ball.

I would suggest getting two. Having enough is always best, not having anough makes oe feel like the job wasnt quite done. I had a good experience with this.. both of my children and I have allergies and my youngest asthma. This product helped when I lived with my sister and we had several dogs inside of the house. It was either try this or get rid of the dogs. Our kids loved their animals and the animals helped soothe the kids during stormy nights..It was a help keep or home more allergen free.Best of luck.

Actually...I don't agree. Wool has a special quality--it is breathable. If you are going to Norway in winter and your guide advised you to gear up with all wool clothing, I would take heed. I highly recommend that you do so. I have spent winters working in Antarctica and the program issues wool socks to employees because wool cannot be beat for performance in cold/wet conditions. Not only does wool breathe, if it gets wet it continues to keep you warm. So, if you sweat you won't get cold. With any other fabric that is not the case. Nothing can replace a good pair of wool socks. And Darn Tough socks are top-of-the-line wool socks. I highly recommend you get a pair (or five!) before you go to Norway for the winter. You won't regret it. (p.s. i am in no way affiliated with DT socks, i'm just a sock aficionado who knows how hard it is to find good socks).

They've been working great for me. I would only add that it's very important you find the right size. That said, I'd recommend getting the "variety" pack at first and then, after figuring out which provide the best fit, order accordingly. Hope this helps--good luck.

Yes u ALL MUST! !!!!WARNING!!!! mold + asthma = inevitable.... Especially if fan can't be turned off with auto climate control. Air conditioners # 1 asthma inducers in the world.In 6 moths they collect more mold spores than uninhibited closed house in 10 years.

Absolutely not ! I use this product year round for my allergies . It also seems to be more effective than Loratadine for me .

It's much better. I have both the Alen Breathesmart and a Winix 9500. The Alen is quieter, has greater square foot coverage, and removes allergens more completely.

This is a great unit for a ROOM - even a fairy large room - but it won't reach around corners to the rest of the place - if you really need a true tpotal house purifier that can be added to you a/c unit. We're n Florida on a lake with a lot of trees and I'm sensitive to the dust/pollen etc. So in heavy allergy season I bring it from room to room, otherwise just use it at night. It does work - when you open it up to clean out the removable filter you'll see how it catches a lot of dust.If you want to know exact sq. footage that it covers, it should say in the description or on their website.

I'm considering CBRN Requirement and using only NIOSH approved masks too. They're much more expensive though. Looks like the SGE 400/3 BB is the lowest cost mask that meets the requirements (maybe)

I find the longer it is left on the better it works, kind of the whole point. I have one in living room and 1 in bedroom. When I first set them up I had them on the high setting now I keep them on low. Has made a big improvement with my allergies. Just make sure to keep them clean and change any filters regularly.

I love all the masks. The lemon/mint is great for getting rid of blackheads and oil, very refreshing, but I use one of their moisturizing masks (either the Goji Berry hydrating or the Honeydew/Chamomile sleep mask) after most of the clay masks. I usually do a Pomegranate peeling mask, then a clay mask, then a moisturing mask. My face then feels and looks great! I have all the masks and have been a fan for years. You can get them all directly for $3.99 from Freeman.com. Love the site! Hope this is helpful.

try the Allergy Buyers Club, which sells them online through their catalog. There is also a website, whitewingsteamer.net; I think it's the same company, but not 100% sure.

Only use the three sanitizers I have in the winter months. Filters in the AC seem be adequate keeping mold spores and pollen at low levels. Cold and flu seasons are usually over so there is no need to keep them running.
