Allergies linked to lower risk of brain cancer

Well, I feel better now. According to the article posted at ScienceDaily:
Atopic diseases, which include asthma, eczema, hay fever, and other allergies, have been linked to a lower risk of glioma, a type of brain cancer that affects glial cells. This association has not been seen with meningioma, a tumor that develops in the membrane that covers the brain.
Now, will somebody hand me my Benadryl, please?
