Allergies
are caused by your body's immune (say: ih-myoon) system. Your
immune system protects you from diseases by fighting
germs like bacteria and viruses.
When you
have allergies, it overreacts and tries to "fight" ordinary
things like grass pollen or certain foods when
you come into contact with them. This causes the
sneezing, itching, and other reactions that you
get with allergies.
