Hello Doctor,

My Eosinophil count is 12 and my IgE is 201. I have sneezing problem every morning. I take rinostat+ or sinarest to control it and it reduces by afternoon. Is this because of allergy? What is the diet that i can follow for this. I am from Chennai, Southern part of India

Hello.

Thank you for asking at HCM.

I would think you have allergic rhinitis.

As your question is about diet, I would suggest you following:

1. Avoid cold foods (cold drinks, cold water, cold sweets, ice creams, etc)
2. Avoid too hot and too spicy foods.
3. Avoid heavy meals at evening/night.
4. Take nutritious balanced diet involving sufficient amount of whole grains, green vegetables, fruits, nuts & legumes & dairy - this is for overall health and a good immune system.
5. Unless you are allergic/intolerant specifically to some foods, you can take all foods.

As an allergist, I would like to say that sneezing every morning is usually due to house dust mite allergy. I would suggest you to take levocetirizine and montelukast daily.

Also, daily nasal wash with nasal saline spray 3-4 times a day will help. Please ensure good ventilation and sunlight into the bedroom. Please try to avoid dust-smoke-air pollutants when possible.

Hope this will be helpful to you.

Wish you best of the health.

Regards.
