  • Latex is a milky fluid that comes from the tropical rubber tree. Hundreds of everyday products contain latex. Repeated exposure to a protein in natural latex can make you more likely to develop a latex allergy. If your immune system detects the protein, a reaction can start in minutes. You could get a rash, asthma and in rare cases shock from latex exposure.
    Your doctor may use a physical exam and skin and blood tests to diagnose it. There are medicines to treat a reaction, but it is best to try to avoid latex. Common latex products include
    Gloves
    Condoms
    Balloons
    Rubber bands
    Shoe soles
    Pacifiers
    You can find latex-free versions of these products.

    It does not occur in minutes
    For me I was wearing latex gloves for several months until one day I was sitting at home and my hands broke out in bubbles
    Latex allergy can take a long time to develop, and the allergic reaction usually shows up 10 to 24 hours after exposure

      Vaginal mucas reacts with latex so even someone with a mild latex allergy that doesn’t notice it anywhere else can notice it when using condoms, I thought I had 5 yeast infections in 3 months, turns out I’m allergic to latex

The transformation has been incredible, and he is now living comfortably without any allergic reactions. IAFA Ayurveda’s approach truly made a remarkable difference in his life!

      Likely not. Type 1 allergies are the result of poorly made NRL but most are Type 4 where you’re allergic to the chemicals used in the product and NOT the protein.
