Scientists raise concerns over meat allergy
A recent study indicates that a rare type of allergy, known as "Alpha-gal" allergy, is increasing worldwide due to climate change. It poses a threat to those affected when they consume red meat or dairy products.

Although diagnosis is challenging and there is no definitive treatment yet, the number of cases is rising alarmingly across several countries.
