Have you ever felt like your immune system is a bully who doesn't keep your best interests at heart? Have you ever sneezed, gotten a rash, or had asthma at the worst possible time? It really gets you thinking— Why DO we have allergies in the first place? In this episode, Dr. Tina Lasisi walks us through how our immune system evolved, what affects our allergies, and things we can do to improve our immune responses.

"Why am I like this?" is a show hosted by biological anthropologist Tina Lasisi, and produced by STEMedia, that dives deep into evolutionary biology to explain some of our existentialism or everyday questions about our body.
