Allergy Relief in Lansing
Itchy, watery eyes, sneezing, wheezing, and runny nose are some common—not to mention bothersome—symptoms of allergies, which can cause discomfort for many people throughout the year. While some look forward to changes in weather and blooming plants, those who suffer from allergies often face ongoing challenges.

The Connection Between Allergies and Your Immune System
If you have allergies, that means your immune system is breaking down.
Dr. Jean-Guy
To combat this, he suggests focusing on three crucial lifestyle changes to boost overall immune health:
Healthy Eating Habits
One of the primary steps to boost your immune system is to adopt healthier eating habits. Dr. Jean-Guy advises reducing sugar intake, as sugar can cause inflammation and weaken the immune system. Instead, he recommends eating more whole foods such as fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins. Avoiding high-sugar foods like cakes, cookies, candies, and even starchy foods like bread and pasta can make a significant difference in your body’s ability to fend off allergens.
Regular Physical Activity
Do you move enough each day? Incorporating regular physical activity into your daily routine is another effective way to enhance immune function. Dr. Jean-Guy suggests at least 30 minutes of brisk walking five days a week. Physical activity helps improve the immune system, making it more efficient in dealing with allergens.
You don’t have to go for a marathon or hit the gym; just brisk walking can help
Chiropractic Care and Supplements
Chiropractic adjustments can also play a crucial role in supporting the immune system. Misalignments in the spine, particularly in the upper neck area, can impact the immune system’s functionality. Regular chiropractic care helps ensure that the nervous system operates optimally, thereby enhancing immune response.
How Dr. Jean-Guy Overcame His Allergies
When he graduated from chiropractic school in 1999 and returned to Lansing, Dr. Jean-Guy experienced severe allergies. At the time, he didn’t exercise as much as he should and ate quite a bit of ice cream, which compromised his immune system. Over the years, through consistent chiropractic adjustments, dietary improvements, and the use of Drenamin supplements, he managed to overcome his allergies.
