Company Overview

The story of Trutek Corp / NasalGuard started

about 20 years ago. First introduced in the US

& Canada in 2003, then the NasalGuard®

AllergieBLOCK Gel was originally called Aller-

Aid. Trutek/NasalGurad expanded its

operations to Europe in 2005, launching in

Germany with the name “Allergoprävent” and in

the UK, NasalGuard gel is sold as

AllergieBLOCK® along with a sister product

called Cold&FluBLOCK®.

Allergy Prevention Vs. Treatment

An old proverb says "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure".

Why spend time, money, energy, and sometimes even pain, treating

allergy symptoms after they occur?

As you know, most allergy medications (pills and sprays) on the market

treat allergy symptoms after the suffering starts. But as soon as the

medicine starts to wear off, those symptoms start coming back in full

force…because typical allergy products mask symptoms rather than

eliminate them. Sometimes these “cures” even cause worse side effects.

including children of all ages, pregnant women, nursing moms and the elderly. NasalGuard technology is

patented. The gel captures airborne particles using slight electrostatic charges. Remember, just like

sunscreen; apply NasalGuard Gels before entering areas with airborne allergens or viruses.

Allergy Statistics in the UK

An allergy is a chronic condition involving an abnormal reaction to an

ordinarily harmless substance called an allergen. Typical allergens

include pollen, ragwort, ragweed, pet dander, mold and dust mites. As

many as 18 million people in the United Kingdom — about 1 in 4, suffer

from hay fever allergies. This includes millions of children.

Allergy Causes & Symptoms

Allergy symptoms occur when your immune system overreacts to an

allergen—something that usually is harmless, such as plant pollen,

dust mites, molds or animal dander. If you have an allergy, your

immune system acts as if the allergen was dangerous, releasing

chemical called histamine that causes allergy symptoms. If the

allergen is something you breathe in from the air, your reaction will

most likely affect your nose, eyes or lungs. Allergy symptoms will vary

depending on the type of allergen.

Seasonal Allergic Rhinitis

Seasonal allergic rhinitis or ‘hay fever’ literally means inflammation of the nose,

and is most often caused by pollen carried in the air during different times of the

year. Hay fever symptoms tend to peak in the spring and fall. Ragweed, tree,

grass and weed pollen are all common sources of seasonal hay fever. Allergic

rhinitis can also be triggered by common indoor allergens such as the dried skin

flakes or saliva found on pet dander, droppings from dust mites and mold spores.

This is called perennial rhinitis because symptoms typically occur year-round -

365 days. In addition to allergen triggers, symptoms may also occur from irritants

such as smoke and strong odors, or to changes in the temperature and humidity

of the air. This happens because allergic rhinitis causes inflammation in the nasal

lining, which increases sensitivity to inhalants.

Why Need Hay Fever

Hay fever" is a century-old term that has come to describe the symptoms of

allergic rhinitis, especially when it occurs in the late summer.

However, the symptoms are not caused by hay (ragwort/ragweed is one of the

main culprits) and are not accompanied by fever. So, the term "allergic rhinitis" is

more accurate. Similarly, springtime symptoms are sometimes called "rose fever,"

but it's just coincidental that roses are in full-bloom during the grass-pollinating

season. Roses and other sweet-smelling, showy flowers rely on bees, not the

wind, for pollination. Not much of their pollen gets into the air to cause allergies.

About Pets Allergy

Almost 46% of UK households own pets (13 million households), and

about 27 million of these pets are cats and dogs. Unfortunately, millions

of human pet owners have an allergy (allergic rhinitis) to their animals.

The proteins found in a pet's dander, skin flakes, saliva and urine can

cause an allergic reaction or aggravate asthma symptoms in some

people. Also, pet hair or fur can collect pollen, mold spores and other

outdoor allergens.

Cold & Flu Allergy

The common cold can be caused by more than 200 viruses; however, usually it is

the Rhinovirus or Corona virus which causes more than 60% of the common cold

incidents. Rhinovirus enters your body mostly through your nose and some

through the mouth. Common symptoms of the cold are stuffy and runny nose,

sore throat and sneezing. Children get colds 5 to 6 times per year probably

because of close contact with other children during the day and a lower immune

system, while adults get colds 2 to 3 times per year. On average, women between

the ages of 20 and 30 get more colds than men, possibly because of their regular

close proximity to children.

Children with Allergies

An estimated 16 million people in UK suffer from hay fever

allergy. In most people, allergies first appear during infancy or

childhood. Allergic disorders rank first among children’s chronic

diseases. Any child may become allergic, but children from

families with a history of allergy are more likely to be allergic.

Children may inherit the tendency to become allergic from their

parents, but only some of them will develop an active allergic

condition.

Kids Nasal Congestion Relief

Allergies are the most common cause of chronic nasal congestion in

children. Sometimes a child's nose is congested or blocked to the point

that he or she breathes through the mouth, especially while sleeping.

This may also cause the child to not get a restful night’s sleep and then

be tired the next day. If the congestion and mouth breathing are left, they

can cause abnormal changes the way the teeth and the bones of the

face grow. Taking precautions and applying NasalGuard®

AllergieBLOCK Gel is an easy way to block allergens from entering a

child’s nose.
