Latakia Allergy

not to bother me, but some - Crown Achievement, for example - seem
to be feeding allergic reaction. Or am I imagining things?

I noticed the same thing. Luckily there is only one blend at this time that
causes problems.

Nope!
Latakia gives me a rotten headache. Thus - sold off all my Latakia
from ye old stash.

Yes, it is possible and it can be immediate or
progressive onset. If you do not experience the
symptoms with all latakia blends, then I would
suspect something else. In the case of Crown
Achievement, it could very well be the caseing.
Lane tobacco blends, at least the ones I've
tried are heavily cased. But in answer to your
question, yes one can certainly be or become
allergic to Latakia.

some other ingredient which is causing an untoward reaction.
In the technical sense, I do not believe it is possible to develop an
allergy to Latakia as allergies are reactions to proteins.

Crown Achievement is a vile, foul combination of weeds to be sure. You
should get rid of that crap ASAP. Don't put it in your trash though, I'm
sure that there are local ordinances prohibiting this. Send it to me for
proper disposal. I will slowly incinerate it so as not to cause any
environmental harm. No need to thank me, it's what I do. :)

Charles, you are a kind and thoughtful soul. However, my stated position
of abiding by the rule-of-law prevents me from mailing or otherwise
transporting toxic waste without the requisite EPA certification.
Moreover, No Such Agency has evidently been monitoring my frequent
conversations with Imusta Bin Foolin in a country far, far away, because
I find myself visited regularly by The Department Of Hopeless Security.
I thus am forced to similarly dispose of this material myself as
shipping it would draw far too much attention to myself.
Kind Regards,
Fred

Charles, I had no idea that you've been moonlighting as a toxic waste
dump. I do share your stated opinion of Crown Achievement. I think it
is a grand gesture you propose, buddy.

It's true that most allergens are proteins or polysaccharides, they can
actually be any sort of molecule, sometimes quite small and bound to a
non antigenic protein.
It's possible that the smoke curing of Latakia results in deposits of
sufficient unburned material from the various shrubs and herbs that are
used in the process to stimulate an allergic response. I'm curious if it
s a family of blends that cause the symptoms, or one particular blend.

An allergic reaction is very much less common than irritative reactions. During life, we estimate that approximately 2% will develop an allergic reaction to a cosmetic product. Allergic reactions manifested in skin contact dermatitis. For such a reaction to take place, one must first develop an allergy. Upon initial use of a drug (new cream) will never get an allergic reaction. The body must first develop an allergy. For prolonged use may immune system develop such a sensibility (allergy). This process is called technical term sensitization. Once one has become sensitized, even very small amounts of the product provide a dermatitis reaction in the skin. Typical allergic reactions are swelling, scaling and purses skin changes.
