The People’s Pharmacy did an interview this morning with Dr. Thomas Platts-Mills of UVA about the alpha-gal meat allergy. It was fascinating and well worth listening to. Here is the link:

I found this confirmed the things we already knew about the allergy. It also helped me to better understand the symptoms that are different from what my boys experienced. I hope you will find this information helpful too.

If you have the alpha-gal allergy, please go to the page “Our Story” and share your experience at the bottom. Maybe your story will help someone else!
