But mayyyybeee if touching grass kills you, you’re supposed to die.

like, i don't know this, but maaaybe a lot of allergies are symptoms of us living in a modern society, instead of in the woods. that makes a whole lot of differences and actually does some changes to our immune systems somehow. don't ask me the details though, they're nasty and hardly comprehensible.

I'm pretty sure allergies are due in part to our crap diets. I changed my diet to one with only food my thrice great grandparents would recognise, also very low carb, no modern vegetable oils, and my allergies vanished (seasonal rhinitis) or became minor (cats)
