A U.S. study found that people with allergy symptoms are less likely to develop cancer.

Research from Texas Tech University discovered that women with asthma symptoms have a 30% lower incidence of ovarian cancer compared to the general female population. Children allergic to airborne particles have a 40% lower rate of blood cancer than other children.

Harvard University research also found that patients with allergies such as asthma, eczema, and hay fever are less prone to brain tumors. Dr. Mulla, an epidemiologist at Texas Tech, explained that allergies can activate the body's immune system, enhancing resistance to diseases, which is why people with allergies are less likely to develop cancer.
