A wave of dangerous tick bites is turning life upside down on Martha’s Vineyard—hundreds of locals have developed a rare allergy that makes eating red meat or dairy downright risky. Now, summer barbecues look totally different, with plant-based menus popping up everywhere and people swapping recipes for vegan dishes. Restaurants are even adding special 'alpha-gal-friendly' options for those affected. For many, it’s not just about food—it’s about feeling left out at social gatherings and having to double-check every meal. Has anyone else had to rethink their diet because of a health scare? How would you handle this sudden change? #Health #BodyHealth #MarthasVineyard
