353: Crazy Meat Allergy Triggered By Ticks (Here’s The Deal On Alpha-Gal Syndrome) w/ Dr. David Fitzhugh
from The Healthy Skin Show · host Jennifer Fugo, CNS, MS, Skin Rash Expert
Ever heard of a tick meat allergy? Also known also Alpha-gal syndrome, this is a allergic reaction to mammalian meat (like beef, pork, or lamb) caused by a tick bite. Unlike typical food allergies, symptoms can take hours to appear—making it tough to diagnose.This tricky condition often requires a major diet overhaul and makes choosing supplements more complicated since mammalian ingredients aren’t part of the top 9 allergens.To break it all down, I’m joined by Dr. David Fitzhugh, a North Carolina-based allergist who specializes in food immunotherapy and complex allergic conditions.⭐️Mentioned in This Episode:- Find Dr. Fitzhugh online - https://www.allergypartners.com/chapel-hill-nc/ - Join in the conversation with Jennifer at http://instagram.com/jenniferfugo - Stop My Rashes FREE eGuide - https://www.skinterrupt.com/stopmyrashes-pod - Fix your skin using Jennifer’s method (trusted by 900+ skin rash warriors)!
