Mold & Allergies After Hurricane Harvey

Particularly for those who endured flooding throughout their homes, mold will grow in hundreds of thousands of houses across Southeast Texas. Mold grows in your house and gives off spores that will be inhaled, and for those of you with allergy problems, it will exacerbate that problem even more. Pollen can be carried hundreds and hundreds of miles, and on top of your normal seasonal allergies, the effects will be compounded because of Hurricane Harvey. The allergy load on your immune system will increase massively. If you are in a flooded home, you cannot wait to salvage your home: Mold spreads. It gets behind and within the walls, in the air filters, everywhere. And, of course, there's a massive increase in overall stress that all of of this destruction and devastation has caused victims and families of victims all throughout Texas and Louisiana. Vitamin C and Magnesium are two examples of vitamins and minerals you can increase taking to strengthen your immune system.
