## Description

Alpha-Gal Alliance is dedicated to raising awareness and providing support for individuals affected by Alpha-gal Syndrome (AGS), a tick-induced allergy to galactose-α-1,3-galactose, commonly known as alpha-gal. This syndrome can trigger potentially life-threatening allergic reactions to mammalian products, including meats like beef, pork, lamb, and even dairy, as well as various medications and personal care items containing mammalian byproducts. The organization offers comprehensive resources such as guidance on managing symptoms, identification of safe products, and connections with healthcare providers knowledgeable about AGS. 

Moreover, Alpha-Gal Alliance is committed to advocating for better understanding and recognition of this growing epidemic, noting that an estimated 450,000 Americans may be affected, with many undiagnosed. By engaging in research and providing educational materials, they aim to assist both patients and healthcare professionals in navigating the complexities of this often-misunderstood allergy, ultimately striving for improved diagnosis, treatment, and patient support.
