《对生活过敏:人体如何拒绝现代世界》
This easy-to-read title provides a comprehensive discussion of the major changes in daily life that have led to states of increased bodily inflammation. Indeed, today there is an epidemic of allergic and autoimmune disease in the first and developing world. While outdoor climate change is now considered common knowledge, the impact of longer work hours, artificial lighting, increased food shelf life, and changes to the microbiome all have made a large impact in increasing allergies worldwide. An allergy, best defined as a “damaging response from the Immune system due to a substance in the environment,” starts with warning signals, or generalized "symptoms," that are caused by something in the environment. Itching, aches, pains, swelling, coughing, and fatigue are all immune responses. Written in an engaging -- and often humorous -- style by an allergist/immunologist, the first three chapters outline how the human body is in an unquestionably harmful environment, and that, in general, the immune system is just doing its job. In subsequent chapters, the specific topics contributing to allergies are covered in detail, starting with microorganisms and a focus on indoor living. Dust mites, for example, are addressed in one full chapter -- and for good reason. The past few decades have seen an explosion of climate controlled, humidified indoor airspace that is ideally suited for more mass production of mites.
这本易读的标题详细讨论了导致身体炎症增加的主要日常生活变化。确实,今天第一世界和新兴世界正面临着过敏和自身免疫疾病的流行病。虽然户外气候变化如今已经成为常识,但长时间工作、人造照明、延长食物保质期以及微生物组的变化在全世界范围内增加了过敏的发生率。过敏症通常被定义为“由于环境中的某种物质引发的免疫系统的一种有害反应”,其始于警告信号或一般的“症状”,这些信号是由环境中某些因素引起的。发痒、疼痛、肿胀、咳嗽和疲劳都是免疫系统的反应。 由一名过敏科/免疫学家以引人入胜(并且常常带有幽默感)的方式撰写的前三章概述了人体处于一个显然有害的环境之中,而且在一般情况下,免疫系统正在正确地执行其职责。后续章节详细讨论导致过敏症的具体话题,从微生物开始,并重点关注室内生活。例如,尘螨被列为一章内容——这是有道理的。过去几十年内,出现了一种大规模生产尘螨的理想条件:控制良好且加湿的室内空间。
