I'm Your Alpha Gal: An Allergen-Friendly Cookbook

I'm Your Alpha Gal: An Allergen-Friendly Cookbook

I'm Your Alpha Gal is Alicia Trotter's answer to a growing, under-resourced health crisis. After being diagnosed with alpha-gal syndrome-a tick-borne allergy that causes severe reactions to mammal meat and by-products-Alicia quickly discovered that most food resources fell short. So she created the guide she wished she had: a beautifully designed, mammal-meat-free, gluten-free, and dairy-free cookbook filled with real, flavorful recipes. This book goes beyond recipes. It begins with Alicia's personal health journey and a clear explanation of alpha-gal syndrome (AGS) for newly diagnosed readers and their families. From there, it offers dozens of practical, allergen-friendly meals-from bowls and salads to desserts and breakfast favorites-plus a complete two-week meal plan and grocery list. Alicia's deep empathy and lived experience make this cookbook feel more like a trusted friend in the kitchen. Whether you're living with AGS, supporting a loved one who is, or simply looking to reduce inflammation and feel better in your body, this is a lifeline of flavor, simplicity, and hope.
