The Acari Hypothesis proposes that vector-active acarians, i.e., mites and ticks, are the etiologic agents responsible for most, if not all, allergies. A corollary of posits allergies now more prevalent because contemporary hygienic practices remove from skin elements sweat otherwise deter acarians. Because antimicrobial activity extends beyond disruption/removal on/from must enable aberrant microbial colonization, possibly potentiating comorbid conditions assignable to colonist(s). Allergy is strongly with metabolic syndrome. Available evidence links principal features syndrome Staphylococcus aureus , an organism influenced significantly by constituents sweat. Thus, removal predisposes both allergy Indeed, “immune-compromised” state brought upon likely accounts comorbidity many medical conditions, examples which highlighted.
