Looking for answers to alpha-gal syndrome? It’s a condition in which allergic sensitization to mammalian meats occurs after tick bites. This is evidence of an external event causing a new food allergy to arise in the genetically susceptible person. The condition is a true allergy, and can result in hives, GI distress, and even severe anaphylaxis. It cannot be solved by chiropractic manipulation. The syndrome should be managed by allergy/immunology ABAI board certified specialists. We have expert guidance and treatment available to you to alleviate the burden for food allergies.
