About this listen

This episode of our Body Talks podcast is a clear breakdown of Alpha-gal syndrome, the tick-induced allergy that can cause severe, delayed reactions to mammalian products like red meat, dairy, and gelatin.

We explain what causes it, how symptoms show up hours after eating, why lone star ticks are the major culprits, and what strict avoidance looks like in real life. You’ll also hear about prevention strategies, risk factors, reactions linked to certain medicines and vaccines, and the latest research shaping how clinicians and patients approach this condition.
