Cursing your allergies already? Well, here's a consolation: people with atopic diseases such as asthma, hay fever and food allergies have 25 percent less likelihood of contracting B-cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (the most common form of NHL).
The more atopic diseases the individual has, the less likely they are to succumb to NHL. If an individual has three of these conditions, they are 40 percent less likely to get NHL.
Having had asthma and hay fever for a long time,also appears to be of greater benefit.
