What is an allergy?

An allergy is an overreaction of the body's immune system to a substance called an allergen, which is normally harmless. An allergic reaction occurs when the body's immune system responds to an allergen as if it were a foreign invader. Continued exposure to the allergen can result in physical symptoms that range from mild to life threatening.
