The working wounded: hayfever

Article Abstract:

Hay fever, an allergic reaction to pollen, affects the nose, eyes and sinuses, and pollen can also cause asthma. Plant breeders, farm workers, florists and flower growers are all susceptible to hay fever because of the large amounts of pollen encountered. Grass is the most common allergen, as vast amounts of pollen are carried on the wind. Hay fever is on the increase, although total pollen counts have been falling over the past 30 years.

The working wounded: diabetes

Article Abstract:

Type 1 insulin dependent diabetics can control their blood glucose by self administered insulin injections. Diabetics need to be aware of all factors than can affect blood glucose levels, such as food and stress. Type 2 is the most common form of diabetes which can usually be controled by diet or tablets. The extent of restrictions on some jobs often depends on how diabetics control their diabetes.
