SAN DIEGO - TelAve -- San Diego, California has climbed to the #2 spot on the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America's (AAFA) 2026 Allergy Capitals report, making it one of the most challenging cities in the nation for allergy sufferers. Known for its mild, sunny climate, San Diego's year-round warm temperatures create ideal conditions for continuous pollen production from trees, grasses, and weeds -- meaning there is virtually no "off season" for allergy symptoms.

The AAFA's 2026 Allergy Capitals report ranks the 100 most populous U.S. cities based on pollen scores, over-the-counter allergy medication use, and availability of allergy specialists. San Diego's high ranking reflects both the intensity of its pollen season and the significant burden it places on residents who suffer from seasonal allergic rhinitis.

Unlike many cities where allergy season is limited to spring, San Diego residents can experience symptoms from January through December. Tree pollen peaks in late winter and spring, grass pollen dominates summer, and weed pollen -- including from invasive species -- extends symptoms well into fall. For the millions of San Diegans who suffer from allergies, this creates a relentless cycle of nasal congestion, sneezing, itchy eyes, and sinus pressure.

ATO Health Products is offering a natural, drug-free solution: ATO Health 100 Sinus Rinse Packets. Unlike antihistamines that can cause drowsiness or decongestants with unwanted side effects, sinus rinsing with a saline solution physically flushes allergens -- including pollen -- directly out of the nasal passages. ATO Health's formula is enhanced with a higher concentration of baking soda to soothe irritated nasal tissue, thin mucus, and neutralize acids, providing superior comfort compared to standard saline rinses.
