Breathe without Benadryl? Isn’t Benadryl used for allergies? Allergies come mainly from plants and pollen. Hopefully those won’t be going away as we adopt solar more.

I’m diagnosed as having pollution induced Asthma and allergies to wood smoke. While I need steroids or an N95 mask when the air quality is very poor, Benadryl indeed does help with the symptoms. What value does your comment add by nick picking his comment? The premise of his argument is correct. Fossil fuels kill far more people than renewables and nuclear. https://www.canarymedia.com/articles/fossil-fuels/which-power-sources-are-most-deadly-hint-not-solar-and-wind https://www.canarymedia.com/articles/fossil-fuels/which-powe...

  Because even if we went 100% fossil free today, we’d still need Benadryl to breathe.

> Asthma and allergic diseases cases have risen in recent decades. Plant pollen is considered as the main aeroallergen causing allergic reactions. According to available data, urban residents experience more respiratory allergies than rural residents mainly due to the interaction between chemical air pollutants and pollen grains. From: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5941124/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5941124/ There's a lot of research linking the two - particulate matter in the air from burning coal is another allergen related to this.

It reduces inflammation in the respiratory track. Relax.

  Since we're being nitpicky. It's tract not track. Point still stands though.
