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)!

Got an itchy rash that looks like eczema—but gluten seems to make it worse? It could be dermatitis herpetiformis (DH), a skin manifestation of celiac disease.DH causes intensely itchy, blistering rashes (often more itchy than eczema). Because the trigger is gluten, going 100% gluten-free (even with skincare) is key to relief.Dr. Peter Lio returns to explain how to spot DH, why it’s often misdiagnosed, and what you can do to get it under control.⭐️Mentioned in This Episode:- Dr. Peter Lio - https://chicagoeczema.com/ - 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)!

Adult hormonal acne can take a serious toll on your confidence—especially when conventional treatments and acne diets fail to help or even make things worse.That’s why it’s critical to look deeper.
