Abstract
Alpha gal syndrome (AGS) is a tick-borne disease, induced by an IgE antibody reaction against the carbohydrate galactose-alpha-1, 3-galactose, found primarily in beef, pork or lamb. Symptoms range from hives to anaphylaxis, with the distinctive feature being delayed symptom onset starting 3 to 6 hours after eating meat. Growing evidence suggests AGS is associated with bites from the lone star tick (Amblyomma Americanum).
