"1st Death Linked to ‘Meat Allergy’ Spread by Ticks"

Well, this is tragic. I have seen some Alpha Gal patients who experienced anaphylaxis due to their acquired meat allergy. One told me he felt himself suffocating and genuinely believed he was going to die which was what brought him to our office. Receiving an Alpha Gal diagnosis doesn't have to mean living in constant fear for the rest of your life, and it doesn't have to mean never eating red meat again.

Annapolis Family Acupuncture is proud to be a leading practice in the treatment of Alpha Gal and other allergies. Call us today to start your journey back to health!

Please send this to somebody you know who is affected by Alpha Gal! We can't wait to help them.

A healthy 47-year-old man from New Jersey died abruptly four hours after consuming beef -- the first confirmed death from the "meat allergy."

Shared with permission.

This SAAT patient came to us for treatment of Alpha Gal. He was desperate to fix it, because he's a total foodie and basically told us he CAN'T not have meat. Like most patients who walk through our doors, he was a healthy skeptic, but as you can see, did his research and saw that SAAT is backed by NIH and he was willing to give it a try.

AFA sees loads of Alpha Gal patients. To be honest, a few years ago, though I'd heard of Alpha Gal, I didn't have a firm grasp on what it meant or what it was. Now, I treat Alpha Gal patients just about every day. For some people, it's as simple as a treatment or two. For others, more extensive treatment is necessary, but I have never given up on an Alpha Gal patient and that persistence has paid off--I have gained a firm understanding of what it is, how it works, and how to pivot when the first treatment doesn't do the trick. If you are being told by your doctors that you will never eat meat again, think again!

Call us now to set up a free consult with Dr. Molly to discuss the treatment of Alpha Gal and associated disorders like Lyme disease, Babesia and more. We can't wait to get you back on track!

AFA is so lucky Margaret Ranes, LMT walked through our doors. And she quite literally did just that! We had given up on looking for a great massage therapist after having a difficult time finding what we were looking for, but then one day, she simply reached out and said, "I think I belong there." ✨

Our patients keep raving about her skill, her professionalism, her knowledge of the body--we can go on and on! We needed somebody who could bring a deeply relaxing experience to our patients AND who is well-versed in not just providing a relaxing experience for our patients, but also in the complexities that come with working on patients who are experiencing all sorts of conditions, from chronic illness, injuries, trauma and cancer.

Margaret is always learning more, always seeking to expand her knowledge and skillset. And to put a cherry on top of that sundae, Margaret genuinely cares about her role as a healer in our community. We are so happy she is on the AFA team and if you haven't had a massage with her yet, we urge you to schedule one!

Further, we have decided to hang onto our special rate of 60 minutes for $99 or 90 minutes for $145 for some time--we find in this economic climate, most people could use the self care at a more accessible rate.

I was reflecting today that I may be about a third of the way through my career before retirement. I’ve been a practicing acupuncturist since 2013, and I feel deeply grateful to have worked with many of my patients for over a decade. When someone sees a practitioner over that span of time, it creates a truly special connection—one where the patient isn’t just a chart or a number, but a person their doctor knows well, genuinely cares for, and can gently guide without ever taking over their agency.

When I was a new doctor, I didn’t yet understand how profound it would be to witness someone’s evolution through their health journey. It’s the greatest honor to be trusted with your care over the years—to celebrate your triumphs, offer a steady hand when you need encouragement, and hold space when sadness arises. Through it all, we’re supporting the physical wellness that allows your life to expand and flourish. It’s truly magical work, and it’s what I know my team and I were born to do.

If you’re curious about how Chinese Medicine or holistic care could support your health journey, we’d love to connect. Call us to schedule a free consultation or a new patient appointment—we’re here to help you shine in your own life.
