While we're on the topic of Seasonal Allergies... Cheddar has a great video on one of the factors caused by landscape designers in the US that makes this FAR worse. Thanks to Dutch Elm Disease, a lot of trees in the US died 100 years ago, and when landscapers were choosing what trees to replace them with some years later there was a debate on what sex of tree to use and male trees won out over female trees. This was decided because female trees fruit, which people thought would be a nuisance and in some cases like the Ginkgo tree, the tree smells absolutely vile. But here's the irony... female trees don't fruit unless they're exposed to pollen from male trees.... Meanwhile... Male trees release pollen no matter what... And most of the trees you see in city landscapes are male. Cheddar's video goes into far more depth.
My take on this is that there aren't that many trees in cities anyways. Even if there are more male trees we are still exposed to less trees overall than people in the past but more and more people develop allergies than in the past. I would like to see a video that dives into what causes people to develop allergies.
Ragweeds are actually very good for the soil by reducing heavy metals and chemicals from pesticides, and you can reduce your allergy to them by eating small amounts of it(unless you're like SUPER allergic, like touching the plant gives you hives or an asthma attack or something). They're also very effective against bug bites and stings. I use them for mosquito bites myself by rubbing on my skin which in turn makes me have less reaction to ragweed pollen surprisingly. They're actually very cool plants.
I just use citronella now, it's also kept away the microbes responsible for BO. I figure if it keeps away mosquitos, it must help with microbes on the skin etc.
Hi, I love your channel and videos. As a Science teacher I use a lot of your videos with my classes. I can't fault your science, but your geography needs a little work. As an Australian, and more specifically a Victorian I can tell you that Brisbane is in the state of Queensland not Victoria like you mentioned in the Viruses section of the video. Apart from this minor and picky error I love your work, thanks for all you do
I am lucky. I do have seasonal allergy but it is really minor. I just sniffle and sneeze a little more. Annoying but pretty tolerable. Wearing a mask also seems to reduce them even more. I am really sorry for those with heavy seasonal allergy.
What Hank didn’t mention is that because itches from bug bites is an allergy reaction, you can be desensitized to it. Some researchers who raise mosquitoes in labs feed the mosquitoes their own blood and become desensitized. Some rangers/people who work in mosquito-heavy natural areas are also desensitized to the local mosquitoes. However, de-sensitivity would take a huge amount of bites to develop and probably a lot of regular bites to maintain, so it’s not really a solution to most of us normal people who get merely a few hundred/dozen bites every season.
i love spring because its the best time for nature. but my allergies really screw that up. when my pollen allergy triggers i get almost every symptom you can possibly get. i know its coming when my chest and diophrame start heating up and i start to breath heavy and everything starts to itch
Desensitisation methods are well established, I suggest that if you have a singular specific allergy that you consult a specialist and work on deactivating the inappropriate immune response. It has nothing to do with the climate or the time of year, you will react to the same substance if it is sitting on an old book in a library that you look at. You know how you puff the air from it in your face if you close it a bit fast or flick through the pages. You do remember books, those things with printed words in them, made of paper, that stuff from dead trees?
@@DanielSMatthews yeah... I tried that. I went to allergist and did allergy shots. Even on the lowest possible starter dose they had to stop b/c I was getting sinus infections. And if you're allergic to things like pollen and live in a part of the world with seasons (ie not the equator) then yes weather will def pay a role as they explained in the video. Ie, if you are allergic to a certain set of pollens, if you live in say North America, if that pollen is only in the air in the spring and summer, then you will have the allergic reaction to it in the spring and summer (or fall or whatever season it is associated with) b/c that is when the pollen is present in the air. Yes weather can make a difference. That's why when it doesn't rain for days at a time, there is a measurably higher amount of pollen in the air compared when it's raining and right after it rains. You can see this in the spring with pollen from pine trees. Before the rains cars are turning yellow. After rains it washes the pollen off and now it's in the mud puddles.
I'm allergic to grass pollen and severely allergic to bees and mushrooms. It's like the bees know.. they always circle my head. And I'm a magnet for mosquitoes. I could take a bath in DEET and they'd still find me on Pluto 🙁
Spring- trees and grasses / Summer- ragweed / Autumn (after first killer frost)- FREE !!!! / Winter- Dust mite poo/ mold spores/ just overall dusty stuffy air. I tried shots for several years and while I was getting 'better' if I missed one session i felt worse. So I just stopped and take allergy meds 2 times a day.
This is terrifying when you consider the mental health implications that allergies have. We might end up needing a proper allergy "cure" rather than simply treating symptoms in the vast majority of people.
Old I know, but maybe it would be possible to develop something similar to a vaccine but for common allergens or even to things an individual has already had a positive allergy test for. You’re definitely right about allergies needing to have a more permanent solution than what we have now though, especially the more severe ones that could potentially cause a significant amount of deaths in the future either directly or indirectly. I guess I should count myself lucky that I don’t really have any known allergies lol.
Trees in cities our over 90% male which release the pollen. They don't want to pick up the fruit from female species. In farm communities it's the opposite. So it's less likely to get allergies if you are a farmer.
I don’t have any allergies; I’d love to know why (my parents don’t have any). Could you guys do an episode on why some people have, for example, peanut allergies, pollen allergies, etc. and some don’t? Does it have anything to do with neonatal exposure or parental genes? Which allergies are genetic vs from an outside source? I’m super curious! Everyone I know that has allergies so do their biological parents. Is it mostly genes?
This would be super cool! I know from another science yt channel (I think it may have been this one) that food allergy increase is linked to the mistaken hypotheses that exposure to nuts and peanuts during fetal development lead to nut and peanut allergies. However, it is now believed to opposite as this advice was given out for the last generation and saw a huge spike beyond what would be expected based better diagnosis tech and larger population. What they think happens (I don't remember all of it exactly) is that by not exposed to nuts and peanuts via mom's diet during development when the body does become exposed it freaks out and creates an allergic response. There's peer reviewed research out there and I'm having insomnia so hopefully this made sense
I know that there was a connection made to peanut oil in a baby soap. Because the bodys first interaction with it was as a nonedible with other non edible stuff it can decide it doesnt belong inside and then when peanut is consumed it freaks out slowing upping the immune response with each reaction. But thats only one possible route.
Please never tell me in person that you're like this. I'm fairly certain that vampiric consumption isn't going to give me any of your allergy resisting superpowers, but I'm trying to be open and honest when I say at this point I'm willing to give anything a shot. 🧛🏾♂️🦇🩸
@@sukai121 nope. You're immune to allergies. I'm kinda desperate not to be dealing with mine now. I am seriously doomed. I work outside, live in the south and the trees have united with the grasses to wage war on me.
If rain is part of the carbon cycle . Faucet from high hights would clean up a lot of carbon maybe mat more coal from the smoke instead of sending it back to the air when water running down the pipe catching the smoke running to a pool of water and potassium then re boil it
Hey SciShow, could different diets in the hemispheres at different times of the year be correlated? For example each hemisphere may eat different types of meals in their winter vs their summer?
Fun fact: I've developed nerve disruption in half my hand (possibly Carpel Tunnel). The other day, I was attacked by horse flies and was bitten multiple times on my legs, and once on my hand where the nerves aren't working properly. The bites on my legs swelled and itched and were really painful. The bite on my nerve damaged hand felt weird, but didn't itch, nor did it swell. So somehow my nerves have affected how my body has responded to the horse fly bite...
The Ragweed Apocalypse has started in Ontario already (first week of August). Usually it's okay until the end of the month or early September. And it's going to be really bad this year, the plants are everywhere.
Higher CO2 is needed for the survival of vegetation Current CO2 level is below 500 ppm. Some people think that CO2 levels need to go as low as 200 ppm. That’s when plants start to die.
My allergies have improved, the only changes made is my diet. No research done just observation over my life. I had lost all my bacteria after getting hospitalized and when I was released I had to change the way I ate for a while to build up my gut health and a side affect has been a better immune system and lower allegories.
Just got over Allergic Blisters on my face, its a horrendous year so far, though we don't have seasons per say...Allergy season lasts 50 weeks of the year it seems
I'm so glad I'm so far not allergic to anything, I wish more people were allergic to pollen so they'd take a stand on Global Warming, like eating plat-based
This goddamn plant semen is killing me, earlier this year I could see the plant semen in the air, I'd die without my air purifier (I bet someone will rule 34 this)

5:54 Well, no. Some ants have formic acid, which is not a venom and is not applied from a stinger, some ants have venom and stingers, and some use other compounds without stingers. And none are applied via bites.
Oh yeah i used to be actually allergic to a certain mosquito, idk its English name. Basically when it bit me i got an allergic reaction causing a giant spot the size of an adult mans hand around the bite😅
So, maybe, if you use light therapy to counteract seasonal affective disorder in the winter then you might be turning off some genes that are there to protect you from winter diseases?
Team, I have watched A L O T of your videos. Could you put some sort of notation* in the title to indicate it’s a mix? I really appreciate what I have learned from you all over the years, always eager to watch new content. This is a great addition to capture and grow a new audience, but just something in the title so I don’t feel guilty for leaving a video early…
Havrnt you noticed that compilation are all more than 20 minutes? Ik smth in the title is probably faster to notice, but yeah at least they are consistent that non-compilation are mostly 15mins or shorter (havent seen one longer)
The funny part is, they use to or at least on other channels they own. I bet they found that less people were watching them, just for watches when they label them. So it's all about the views to them.
A summer cold is hard to get rid of I've had a few of them, and I did hear someone getting the flu during summer them I recalled the Influenza of 1918 Spain had nothing to do with it.
If you're worried about higher temperatures increasing the pollen count, don't worry. Once the temperature reaches a certain point, pollen production all but screeches to a halt. Of course, no pollen means famine, so...
One medical opinion to help fight off Winter viruses viruses is to increase your vitamin D consumption to to between 8 and 9000 units also include magnesium and zinc to help absorb the vitamin D
11:45 actually it is... increased consumption of food occurs in the fall/winter because of holidays.. think about it... thanksgiving(feast) , halloween (candy), christmas(gluttony over everything) and they wonder why lmfao it right in front of there faces

22:19 I wanted Science to study me, because I feel like PAIN when I'm cold and I never heard anyone say stuff like that
In the cold episode, it is clear that cold temperatures don't make you get a cold, but What about drastic temperature changes? I remember my mother telling me to be careful when going suddenly from hot to cold, she said that was the danger, not the cold itself, Is any hypothesis/study for that "old fashion" health advice? Also, what happens in the places where winter is cold and humid (rain every day)? because your explanation for flu season is beautiful for NYC or Montreal (cold & dry) but doesn't work that well in Seattle or Vancouver, any comments on that? Thanks! I big fan here! ❤
For the record, Brisbane (at 19:47) is not in Victoria, Australia. Brizzie is a long, long way up north, the capital city of the ‘sunshine’ state of Queensland, Australia. Just sayin’.
Also doesn't help that cities plant more male plants, the ones that make the pollen, because they didn't want female plants in the city dropping fruit and flower petals all over the place. So instead they would rather have a sick yellow haze all over everything.
I ask my dr if histamine was the same as bug bites he said yes and was amazed that I was aware of it., also ant bites can be deadly I recall a science show about a few people who have to carry the epi-pen just for that among people with food allergies and bee stings, I had a relative who was allergic and died from a bee stingng he forgot his epi-pen that day
Since wearing face masks I've felt my allergy symptoms becomes better. But they're so many people who are agents the masks. I feel like I'm being judged for wearing it, just with the comments my friends make.
It’s ok! If it’s making your symptoms better then keep wearing it! I feel a little weird too around people who don’t wear it but I can breathe better with it on😅 Also during winter I didn’t have bad asthma cause I covered my nose and mouth from freezing cold air.
Although I've seen all of these before... I never thought of the hay-fever one as being a problem, although I'd never suffered from it before. But this year for the first time in my life I experienced hell after being to the local aprk and having all the symptoms at once. My girlfriend who suffers regularly though had no effect.
Sounds like an allergy to a specific pollen. You should try and find out what plants were in the park so you can figure out what to avoid. My dad specifically reacts to cow parsley for example so we avoid areas with that without anti allergy meds
Genuine question or petition maybe I don’t know how to really phrase this, okay, so I have an allergic condition, but it’s not allergic at all, hypereosinophilic syndrome. I get rashes and all kinds of allergic reactions but I’m actually allergic to nothing. How, I’m considered atopic, with atopic dermatitis, I have allergic rhinitis, and sometimes I have hay fever, but I check negative to being allergic to any of those. Care to explain further or talk about allergic reactions on non-allergic people?
May be this will help. "Hypereosinophilic syndrome | Genetic and Rare Diseases Information Center (GARD) - an NCATS Program" rarediseases.info.nih.gov/diseases/2804/hypereosinophilic-syndrome
Saying Brisbane is in Victoria is the same as me saying that New York (city) is in New York (state) it isn't hard to do a little fact checking or geography for that matter in this day and age.
I'm happy I don't have seasonal allergies any longer. I use to use a homeopathic allergy pill and a table spoon of local raw honey. After two years of doing that I no longer have seasonal allergies.
Guys, you gotsta put “compilation” in the title. Some of us use sci show as background while we do other stuff and it’s such a pain when you get into doing your foreground and realise you’re doing it to a clip show
Hang on a sec. The "Brisbane" virus comes from Victoria, Australia? You sure about that? The Brisbane I live in is the capital of Queensland. Don't know of one in Victoria. Please don't get us Qlders mixed up with those Victorians. On second thought, at least you didn't call us New South Wales. Victoria isn't too bad (apart from the weather). But it is quite a bit south of us.

Oh yeah i used to be actually allergic to a certain mosquito, idk its English name. Basically when it bit me i got an allergic reaction causing a giant spot the size of an adult mans hand around the bite😅
So, maybe, if you use light therapy to counteract seasonal affective disorder in the winter then you might be turning off some genes that are there to protect you from winter diseases?
Melatonin also helps Covid. Interesting. I think you are correct.
Season for diseas'n bum de bum bum bum bum bum de da da de da da
Actually my allergies have been much better with face masks
Maybe masks are the way.
@@haroldinho9930 this is the way
My babysitter in the 19 80s wore a mask during allergy season and she swore by it. She got them from a nurse friend. She was way before her time.
Wow I guess the masks have less spread out then I thought pollen can be really really small.
Team, I have watched A L O T of your videos. Could you put some sort of notation* in the title to indicate it’s a mix? I really appreciate what I have learned from you all over the years, always eager to watch new content. This is a great addition to capture and grow a new audience, but just something in the title so I don’t feel guilty for leaving a video early…
Havrnt you noticed that compilation are all more than 20 minutes? Ik smth in the title is probably faster to notice, but yeah at least they are consistent that non-compilation are mostly 15mins or shorter (havent seen one longer)
@@Crustee0 True, but I don't think we should have to infer that.
The funny part is, they use to or at least on other channels they own. I bet they found that less people were watching them, just for watches when they label them. So it's all about the views to them.
They indicate this in the description, where they list the original episodes and link to them.
This is what playlists are for.
A summer cold is hard to get rid of I've had a few of them, and I did hear someone getting the flu during summer them I recalled the Influenza of 1918 Spain had nothing to do with it.
Yea, the reason it was called the Spanish Flu is because in the beginning Spain was only country that it was allowed to be reported on.
As a midwestern ive noticed winters arnt as harsh and that spring starts sooner and winters as well
OG Title: A Season for Disease’n
In Africa there's an Ebola-type illness has been discovered, there was a swine flu outbreak during the 70s. this I remember.
If you're worried about higher temperatures increasing the pollen count, don't worry. Once the temperature reaches a certain point, pollen production all but screeches to a halt. Of course, no pollen means famine, so...
One medical opinion to help fight off Winter viruses viruses is to increase your vitamin D consumption to to between 8 and 9000 units also include magnesium and zinc to help absorb the vitamin D
What would the maximum number of possible flu mutations be?
11:45 actually it is... increased consumption of food occurs in the fall/winter because of holidays.. think about it... thanksgiving(feast) , halloween (candy), christmas(gluttony over everything) and they wonder why lmfao it right in front of there faces
Did Sam come up with this amazing title?? I love it!
"It's not normal to sneeze"
Let's go new intro!
This is the summer of 2021 update On your seasonal illness we have discovered a lot of Seasonal
illnesses Can be forted Against by an increase in your vitamin D supplement
22:19 I wanted Science to study me, because I feel like PAIN when I'm cold and I never heard anyone say stuff like that
In the cold episode, it is clear that cold temperatures don't make you get a cold, but What about drastic temperature changes? I remember my mother telling me to be careful when going suddenly from hot to cold, she said that was the danger, not the cold itself, Is any hypothesis/study for that "old fashion" health advice?
Also, what happens in the places where winter is cold and humid (rain every day)? because your explanation for flu season is beautiful for NYC or Montreal (cold & dry) but doesn't work that well in Seattle or Vancouver, any comments on that?
Thanks! I big fan here! ❤
*A Sneezson for Disease'n
For the record, Brisbane (at 19:47) is not in Victoria, Australia. Brizzie is a long, long way up north, the capital city of the ‘sunshine’ state of Queensland, Australia. Just sayin’.
If pollen may travel farther, would it effect bacteria, allowing airborne pathogens to also travel farther?
insightful
I live at the equator which makes most of the informations here rather irrelevant for I.
Good video though. Thank you.
can u explain the differences between influenza and cold
Also doesn't help that cities plant more male plants, the ones that make the pollen, because they didn't want female plants in the city dropping fruit and flower petals all over the place. So instead they would rather have a sick yellow haze all over everything.
I was just listening for a while and I really thought you were talking about "jeans" for a good 30 seconds lol
I have a ridiculous histamine response to mosquito bites. I swell up like a balloon every damn time.
Seasonal jeans? I change mine daily
I ask my dr if histamine was the same as bug bites he said yes and was amazed that I was aware of it., also ant bites can be deadly I recall a science show about a few people who have to carry the epi-pen just for that among people with food allergies and bee stings, I had a relative who was allergic and died from a bee stingng he forgot his epi-pen that day
What about urbanization? Couldn't plants create more pollen for a longer time bc they are more spread apart,
I just wanted to appreciate the inclusion with "people with ovaries" instead of just "women"
Didn't you all do a video on confirmation bias? ... now watch this again lol ... 😘
Er Brisbane is Queensland, not Victoria @19:40
This has been the worst year for allergies for everyone I know, I’ve been so sick off and on with sinus issues
Since wearing face masks I've felt my allergy symptoms becomes better. But they're so many people who are agents the masks. I feel like I'm being judged for wearing it, just with the comments my friends make.
It’s ok! If it’s making your symptoms better then keep wearing it! I feel a little weird too around people who don’t wear it but I can breathe better with it on😅 Also during winter I didn’t have bad asthma cause I covered my nose and mouth from freezing cold air.
I haven't gotten a cold or flu since I started wearing masks. That's reason enough, for me.
You should try not being afraid of COVID and see how much you get judged then! Heh
@@Acidfunkish Probably nothing to do with the mask though - just lower densities of people lmao
They are Afraid. And they should be.
And i'm not talking about the bug.
Maybe, in the winter, the cold viruses burrow into the cells lining our nose, to keep warm. ;)
I accidentally clicked away, and now there are 10 more comments.
"Stop the plant growth!!" 🤔😖
Although I've seen all of these before... I never thought of the hay-fever one as being a problem, although I'd never suffered from it before.
But this year for the first time in my life I experienced hell after being to the local aprk and having all the symptoms at once. My girlfriend who suffers regularly though had no effect.
This is the true 69th comment.
Sounds like an allergy to a specific pollen. You should try and find out what plants were in the park so you can figure out what to avoid. My dad specifically reacts to cow parsley for example so we avoid areas with that without anti allergy meds
~ that rhyming ~
Genuine question or petition maybe I don’t know how to really phrase this, okay, so I have an allergic condition, but it’s not allergic at all, hypereosinophilic syndrome. I get rashes and all kinds of allergic reactions but I’m actually allergic to nothing. How, I’m considered atopic, with atopic dermatitis, I have allergic rhinitis, and sometimes I have hay fever, but I check negative to being allergic to any of those. Care to explain further or talk about allergic reactions on non-allergic people?
May be this will help.
"Hypereosinophilic syndrome | Genetic and Rare Diseases Information Center (GARD) - an NCATS Program" rarediseases.info.nih.gov/diseases/2804/hypereosinophilic-syndrome
I know several people who have to take shots year-round due to allergies
Interesting. Ive had life long crappy hayfever but its mostly gone since i adopted a keto diet
Ugh the flippin Vrbo ad made me cry
So can I take an antihistamine to make bug bites not itch?
Allergy season has definitely gotten worse every year
Saying Brisbane is in Victoria is the same as me saying that New York (city) is in New York (state) it isn't hard to do a little fact checking or geography for that matter in this day and age.
But... NYC is in the state of New York. It's more like saying Newark NJ is in New York state because they're one state over.
Ok. You simply must put "Compilation" in the titles of these.
and a better tittle too. A Season for Disease'n...
I'm happy I don't have seasonal allergies any longer. I use to use a homeopathic allergy pill and a table spoon of local raw honey. After two years of doing that I no longer have seasonal allergies.
did you become a bee
Guys, you gotsta put “compilation” in the title. Some of us use sci show as background while we do other stuff and it’s such a pain when you get into doing your foreground and realise you’re doing it to a clip show
Nice video
A Season for Deceasin'?
The Season for Misleadin' heh
how do i only watch the hank videos
Oh god I have Rhumetoid Arthritis and I live in Canada, lord save me.
Wait a min.
Did he say that higher CO² is good for plants?
Hang on a sec. The "Brisbane" virus comes from Victoria, Australia? You sure about that? The Brisbane I live in is the capital of Queensland. Don't know of one in Victoria. Please don't get us Qlders mixed up with those Victorians. On second thought, at least you didn't call us New South Wales. Victoria isn't too bad (apart from the weather). But it is quite a bit south of us.
