    According to this article, Christmas trees can cause allergies. I've heard of allergies to molds before, but never because of a Christmas tree...it's a very interesting fact I've found...

    Well...some people are allergic to pine and the sap from the pine trees too so I guess I'd buy it for those sorts but I doubt it does for everyone.

    My mother has horrible allergies to mold and certain types of pollen from trees and grasses. Never once having a Christmas tree has she told me that her allergies were triggered by the Christmas tree itself.

    I can see how it would bother some people though if they had pine allergies like Repliku said.

    Wow.

    We have a fake tree every year ever since the one year when it fell and our carpet was ruined.

    I can see how this would cause allergies. It really sucks for those people. I guess they'll just have to get a fake tree or have lots of spare tissues...

    Well, I should admit this is interesting, for me there is no difference thought, since I always had a fake tree, but it must really bad for some people.
