Allergies, are hypersensitivity disorders of the immune system and are activated when an immune system reacts to normal substances, called allergens. The allergens activate mast cells, which are a type of white blood cells, via an antibody named immunoglobulin E. The resultant reaction is an inflammatory response which can be merely uncomfortable, or it can be fatal.
