In this episode of the Over 40 Fitness Hacks, Brad Williams interviews Dr. Manan Shah, a board-certified ENT surgeon and founder of WYNDLY, a telehealth allergy treatment startup. They discuss Dr. Shah’s journey into the world of allergy treatment, the impact of environmental allergies on health, and how WYNDLY uses telehealth to make allergy care more accessible and affordable.

Dr. Shah explains the prevalence of allergies, affecting one in four Americans, and how they can lead to issues like difficulty breathing, poor sleep, and hindered workout recovery. He shares that WYNDLY provides allergy relief through sublingual immunotherapy, which involves small daily doses of allergens under the tongue, gradually desensitizing the body. This alternative to traditional allergy shots is more convenient, especially for busy adults who can’t commit to weekly clinic visits.

They also delve into the science behind allergies, noting how genetic predisposition and lack of early exposure to nature can increase sensitivity to allergens. Dr. Shah highlights the "unified airway theory," emphasizing that nasal and respiratory health are interconnected, so treating allergies can benefit overall respiratory health, sleep quality, and reduce risks of sinus infections and asthma.

Brad and Dr. Shah also discuss how telehealth can bypass the insurance-driven barriers of traditional allergy treatment, making allergy care more streamlined and effective, especially for those over 40 aiming for optimal health.
