Meat Allergies in general, are fairly uncommon. However reactions can range from anaphylactic to digestive issues.
Avoiding certain meats may be more complicated if you are extremely sensitive, for instance, even certified vegan products can be made on the same line as meat and milk products. People who avoid meat, for religious reasons, often have certification measures that are more restrictive.
For Jews not eating pork is the most observed kosher practice. Muslims consider eating products derived from pork violation of their dietary laws as well. Muslims mark products that comply with their dietary laws as Halaal meaning “lawful” or “permissible”. The foods that meet Jewish dietary laws have Kosher labeling. Both are “pork free” with almost no cross contamination issues with pork.
Jewish people who observe dietary laws do not mix milk and meat. If you are also allergic to milk, be aware that in Jewish law, a food product may be considered pareve, if it contains a very small amount of milk. Food marked parve could potentially have enough milk protein in it to cause a reaction in a milk-allergic person.
Most halaal gelatin is made from beef not pork so it can not be considered vegetarian.
Hidden Pork usually in the form of gelatin includes marshmallows, candies, ice cream, jello, vaccines. There are vegan and Halaal variations of marshmallows, jello and other foods. Making Vegan marshmallow or gelatin is difficult to make, and also hard to find.

this is interesting. for the last 4 years iv been suffering from a strange range of symptom , my face swelling my and turning bright red and itchy, strong headaches , earaches and what look like hive on my arms – i also get full on colds with it and my growth has been awfully stunned. my GP said i suffer from server septic tonsillitis but should not have them removed. (my through practically closes over as well ) anyway i started to suffer from sever cramp as well and spent most of my time in the loo. only a few months ago , when i started keeping a diary of what i ate did i notice that it happened when i ate meat or food prepared by meat. my doctor from the hospital gave me a anti-inflammatory for every time a reaction happens – it doesn’t work and i am yet to tell him of my findings about the meat theory . but my GP said its impossible to be allergic to meat although my medical records state i have a pork allergy diagnosed when i was 4. can a allergy progress to other meats?
According to the experiences other people have had and shared on this website, it does seem possible for a meat allergy to progress to other types of meat.
It is prefectly possible to be alergic to all meats. I suffer from a sever alergy to a chemical found within all landbased animals which took 19 years of symptons before it was properly diagnosed. It is easily dealt with and basically just meant adjusting to a vegitarian diet and becoming very awear of cross-contamination. The main problem I’ve had is people (including the medical professionals) acknowledging that it actual happens. Good luck with your doctor.
You can be allergic to the nitrates and nitrites which are additives in the meat. When you start developing thyroiditis you can start having all sorts of sensitivites to food and additives. My TSH numbers were fine, but I had cancer in my thryoid for 4 years without diagnosis and histamine inflammation with it, so just have your thyroid checked not just with TSH testing have an ultrasound done, it’s the cheapest way to rule out a thryoid nodule, goiter, or thyroid possible problem.
Consider a preservative commonly used in meats, sodium nitrite, rather than the meat itself, as the source of the problem. Sodium nitrate is ubiquitous in prepared meats like bacon, sausage, salami, pastrami, corned beef, hot dogs, etc, and is common in all cuts of beef, pork, and turkey. Check the label, it’s usually the last on the list of ingredients. Even if not listed, be careful to buy unpreserved meats to be sure.
Before I had my first son, in 1995, I was diagnosed with allergies to beef, chicken, pork, eggs, milk, kiwi, pollen, grasses etc., what to eat? Then after I had my son I started to eat everything again, but kiwi. In 2001, I started with eczema,but it wasn’t diagnosed as eczema until about 2 years later. Could this be from a food allergy? My current doctor told me it is not related to food allergy? I don’t believe him, but who do you turn to when it seems alot of doctors don’t think eczema is related to food allergy? It is getting worse and I am having more symptoms all the time. Do I just give up those foods again?
Unfortunately, a lot of doctors have fixed ideas about certain things.
Eczema is a symptom, not a disease. No-one knows what causes it. There probably is no one thing.
Try cutting out those foods and see if it helps. Then you can slowly try one food at a time and see if there is one particular food that causes the problem.
Remember to space out reintroducing foods by two or three weeks per food, in case symptoms take time to develop.
TRUST YOUR OWN INTUITION! Doctors don not know every thing, and they do not live in your body. If you think it is meat you very well could be right! Especially if you consume commercial animal products which are loaded with antibiotics, hormones, and pesticides (from the grains they are feed)…. Skin conditions tend to show toxicity in the body. Try an Arevedic doctor see what happens I am sorry you are suffering from eczema. Movies like Food inc. can be helpful.
I am sorry I have always been sick from eating meat especially pork- then beef, and next poultry- It does not seem difficult to think that the body will down regulate enzymes that break down animal fats and proteins when it is not being stimulated by intake. Although meat is savory & can taste good- it is the eating of dead flesh- that is gross. This is a personal choice of course, but meat eaters get defensive, when one says such things which is founded in truth- meat is dead flesh. Flsh based diets cause sickness. People who do not eat flesh, and accidently consume it in the foods prepared by a restaurant, per se, tend to have GI repercussions. If one needs proteins go to eggs, cheeses or legumes.
Yes I believe it’s allergy. I found a natural allergiest that Clears foods on a machine that you are allergic too. I has given me a new lease on life.

Ugh, I am sick and tired of people telling me they don’t believe me or that I’m just “being picky”.
I have been allergic to milk all my life. We (my mom and me) didn’t realize that it extended to other foods as well. My entire childhood and teen years were spent with a severely extended and sore belly. I wasn’t able to ever sleep on my stomach or wear any clothes that pushed on my stomach. I always felt bad, and begged off way more than one outting claiming I just didn’t feel good – but I wasn’t flu sick. I never owned a pair of jeans during this time. Luckily this was the 70s and 80s or I would have never gotten away with wearing cotton pants and long sweaters. Anyway, at the age of 21-22 I went on a diet. During the first two weeks of the diet you weren’t allowed to have any sort of dairy or meat. OMG! not only did I loose the distended gut but I felt so wonderful for the first time in my life! I actually went out and bought a pair of jeans. After the first two weeks, I had a hot dog. Immediately got sick, like food poisoning which lasted for 3 days with the cramping and again the bloated belly. Thought it was just bad food. Tried it again…nope, body rejected that too, violently..with another 3 days in pain. After a few trips to the emergency room and subsequent tests, a GI Dr diagnosed me with severe IBS and an arthritic and spastic colon. My insides literally sieze for days, and then start spasming. Interesting to me though that the other IBS trigger foods don’t bother me.
Since that moment (15 years ago) I stopped eating beef all together. Slowly I removed all forms of beef and cow produced foods from my diet. No chocolates or cakes for this girl….
My reaction when I do get exposed to it accidently is the same as food poisoning and lasts for 3 days before my body feels normal again and I then add that food to my list of don’ts. I’m now reading everything for any type of cow product and having to ask my friends and family “what’s in that?”. This includes medication. Did you know there is milk in Claritin? I didn’t either until I got sick. I’m now starting to get sick with mayo and most breads (have to either not eat any bread or only those that weren’t made with milk of which are few and far between).
It’s just nice to know you’re not alone sometimes. Thank you guys for sharing your stories. Best wishes to all.
S&T
And thank-you for sharing your story! I’m sure it will help others get to the roots of their problems.
Hi S&T,
I am having terrible reactions to pork and who knows what else. But every time I eat, I am so tired I can’t keep my eyes open. I’m going to start a journal like you did. I am curious as to the first diet you were on and lost weight. Do you remember what it was called? So with everything canceled out, what do you eat?
Thanks for sharing,
Hope your feeling great,
Happy New Year!
It is nice to know that there are other people out there, with weird-o food allergies.
I was unable to drink dairy milk as a baby, and my mother used goat milk as an alternitave. I don’t know how long this continued, but I dont remember a time, I have ever had a problem, with dairy. I eat beef with just about every meal, love cheese, and milk.
Within the past month, I have had allergic reations, such as eye swelling, along with lips, and throat, and vomiting. I had to go to the ER, I was so scared. After the next allergic reaction, I knew beef was associated with the problem, because my lip had a huge fever blister after one bite of steak.
I don’t know what is causing this to happen. Somthing to do with, HCL in stomach not working right, and causing the body to produce histamines when the protien is interduced to the body.
If anyone knows how I can fix my weird-o situation, please let me know. I am not a vegetarian, and didn’t plan on becoming one anytime soon.
Thanx alot.

Consider eating raw milk and cheeses and try organic meats. You may not be allergic to the meat itself but to the additives. However you might have to consider becoming a vegetarian or perhaps restricting yourself to fish and chicken(organic of course).
I know organic foods are far more expensive – but remember what you spend at the grocery store you will save at the doctor.
my 5 year son has been with an allergy for almost every protein though the condition seem to be abit mild now but not yet over. He gets watery sores on the skin which are painless but they leave ugly black spots on the skin.pls advice on what he should feed on since he must get proteins to grow.and for those spots what can be used to clear them? Thank you for your support and may God bless you all
Think about different types of protein, and try them out to see which ones are OK.
Red meat (beef, pork etc.)
Foul (chicken, turkey etc.)
Fish
Plant (lentils, beans etc.)
Hopefully some proteins from the above categories will be OK for your son.
I am 47 years old and have become allergic (gradually,w/full hives,ER,911 calls,etc.) to `beef`. I spent $500 for 28 tests on my back-NO ALLERGIES!-Bull SH_T!! I’ve eaten herds of cattle in my life, but now have aquired these allergies over the last 9 years (8 of doctor’s MISdiagnosis, 3 of mine($$$’s later) accurately. Bottom line is,protein for your son,and all around PERFECT diet, GREENS & BEANS -look this up online!! My chiropractor advised me, so I studied up. It’s true! Your son will get ALL protein he needs from beans (and legumes(nuts)) and vites from greens & fruits, trust me, I HAVE TO LIVE IT!! Good memories to you!!!
we have owned dogs for over 40 years with no problms.is it posable i have now become allergit to the dogs
That can happen.
About a year ago I began to notice that whenever I eat chicken the skin on my face and arms will burn/sting for the next few hours. I have tried organic, antibiotic free, free range, etc. and still had the reaction. Oddly, I can eat fried chicken with no problem. Lately I’m noticing the same reaction to a lesser degree to fish and turkey. Has anyone else out there experienced this? Is there a chance that it will get worse if I continue to occasionally eat chicken?
Hi. I also eat chicken or anything with chicken stock and it makes my face hot for a few hours. Everyone just thinks it’s strange???
I have the same exact thing – which is why I found your post. It’s just started happening to me (43 years old).
Maybe it is something within the chickens — but I had this start when I was home (in USA) and now I have had it happen here (in Europe) and they probably do not use the same growth hormones or types of feed in both places. Maybe it’s just one of those things. Or maybe it is a popular spice being used these days.
My son was recently diagnosed with a meat by-product allergy but not given any real information on what “meat by product” is. Does anyone no which foods to avoid.
After 5 yrs of intermittent & then constant reaction to beef consumption. Lamb is only minor & pork almost never) I saw an allergist. Yes, allergic. “Sorry we cannot do anything for you, but come back & see me in 6 months”… (For what?”) He wanted to say it was a reaction to a woodtick bite… haven’t had any in about 10 yrs… My reactions is SEVERE Hives 3 hours after eating when the food leaves the stomach. It’s not hormones in the meat, done organic. What about body ability to breakdown these proteins?
This is very interesting. About 5 years ago I noticed my face would break out when I ate a hamburger. Then it started with fish such as frozen fish sticks. Now it happens with chicken…I think the removal of trans fats may have some kind of affect on this. Not sure but beef causes a break out of hives, black spots and itchy scalp every time I eat it. Something is indeed going on and not even a dermatologist was able to help me. His answer “stop eating hamburgers”…yeah, right!
l promise you…it worked for me…l have had bad skin since l was 16… lm now 41.. l gave up meat as a last resort 7 weeks ago…lm now a differant person…it must of been like a dermatitus…lnstead ,,,l ve been eating fish every day…lm so happy now…might not be the answer for every one, but dont give up..there is a reason and cure for everything,just have to find your poison, lve found mine……..pete….lm not lying, lm allergic to meat.
None of you know about tick bites. My son, 48, suddenly became alergic to meat. He had a slight reaction to a tick bite. His son was bitten the same day (no reaction). My son has normal blood type, his son rare. All through the South people with normal type blood that were bitten are now alergic to meat. The University of Virginia is doing major research and like to hear about the different cases. My son had to go to the ER with severe stomach pains. We were very shocked that a tick could cause this much damage to his cells. So far, no cure out of UVA. Check it out on line.
I know about the dreaded tick. Same thing happened to me.
I live in MD and have never had allergy problems other than some nasal annoyances. Two years ago I started with swelling lips, then hives on a very limited portion of my body, then a full attack of hives, trouble breathing and almost passing out. This always struck after midnight about 7 hours after dinner. When I finally tracked it down, after an allergist said I had no problems with his tests, it was filet mignon. I am still on edge about other meats and other beef: I limit my portions and find that well cooked (like in a slow cooker) beef causes no problem. But why?
A friend of mine put meat allergy and hives into Google and came up with the UVA study. It all came together: I’ve been bit by ticks and chiggers for years. Now I am paranoid about ticks.
My understanding is that there is no cure.
Well I can certainly relate to meat allergy I took a detox when I notice Hives ,loss of voice for 21 days I took that detox and ate no meat ,well I started with the chicken first ,itbought hive all over my body , then I started fish without the meat worst blotches that look horrible and my voice completely gone, so now I am not having meat or fish and my body have returned to its normal look.Meat allergy does exist .
What kind of detox diet where you on?
Maybe someone here can help me. I am trying to figure out what is making me sick. I think I may be developing an allergy to pork(I guess that’s the technical term for all types of pig meat: sausage, ham, bacon, etc.). I’ve gotten sick 3 times in the past 3 days, and each time, it hits about 2-5 hours after I’ve eaten some type of pork. The first two times it was sausage(from 2 different restaurants) and today it was ham,(from ANOTHER restaurant). My symptoms are: weak, shaky, nausea, headache, cold chills, feeling like my insides are shaking, and gas(sorry, couldn’t think of any other way to say it).
Is it possible for a college-aged person to develop allergies to a type of meat? I have always loved bacon and sausage, growing up, and have eaten it in large portions, my whole life, so the fact that even just a little bit of it is what I think is bothering my body now, is kinda weird, in my opinion.
Thanks,
Sarah
Allergies can be developed at any time in life, ironically most often to the foods we love the most. So you can’t rule it out on age or because it is a favorite food (that actually makes it more likely).
See the article on self-testing for allergies for more ideas.
I’m allergic also to all kinds of meat products and even some sea foods like shells and shrimps but not to fish…if you are suffering same with mine don”t eat all kinds of meat even in cans you can eat only fruits and vegetables and some kind of fish( if you want to eat meat take a celestamine tablet after meal its effective and I,m using LORNASONE (Betamethasone) its an ointment it heals fast….hope i can help u guys.
My 5 year old daughter has been tested at Mt. Sinai in NYC because of anaphylaxis to beef, lamb, pork, beans, eggs, milk (including goats milk and fish. She is also allergic to nuts (although we have not tested peanuts out of sheer fear on my part). She is also allergic to soy which produces a severe asthmatic reaction. Oddly enough she is fine with shrimp, strawberries, tomatoes.. all the ones I was worried about. It is very difficult for people to understand. I had a nurse (who is a family friend) recently tell me I was being “taken for a ride”. Unfortunately unless people see with their own eyes, they have a hard time believing. Is is very frustrating. I am not some psycho with munchausen inflicting silliness on my child. I go through every day with anxiety when she is at school. Thankfully our son has no issues. What is equally wonderful and a blessing is that our pediatrician was able to peg things very early on because her daughter had suffered the same type of allergies, asthma, and eczema. I have not begun desensitizing injections yet because I feel badly about having her get needles every week (I know I need to get over that, as my husband got them for years and years and they did help him when he was a child). Any feedback on those who get the shots or any alternative methods would be greatly appreciated. Rosalie
Doctors and the medical profession generally may be behind on allergies, but the rest of the world is catching up. Now when you eat out it is quite easy to order food without what ever allergens you want to avoid. Serving staff no longer look at you like you have two heads, most cater to your needs and take it very seriously. We have to figure these things out on our own, without much help from doctors, that’s why I started this website.
I get allergy shots weekly and they seem to help a lot.
Greetings,
I was having terrible indigestion and hives at 2am once or twice a year for a few years. It became more frequent, I had many tests done. FINALLY I pinned it down to red meat…but it was induced by my exposure to ticks over the years. A Dr. Commins at UVA helped me sort it out. I’ve also found that pork can induce it too. My point being that this took years to manifest itself where I could pin it down. I haven’t had red meat in about a year and have cut back on pork. All the indigestion and hives have gone away. Dr. Commins says the symptoms can vary and it appears only certain blood types are affected (I’m A+). Anyway, hope it might help someone….
I am allergic to hamburger. I have found very lean burger ( 85/15 or leaner) doesn’t seen to bother me. I was told my body had stopped making a particular enzyme that would combat this.
Growth hormones found in beef I’m told stores itself in the fat . Low grade burger has much higher fat content.
I would eat, say, meatloaf and 5 hours later I broke out in hives in the web area of my hands as well as my mouth and throat. I have been fighting this for about ten years now.
I think I may be allergic to meat.I’m A+ blood time so I can’t eat dairy.I turned vegatarian 4 weeks ago.Because I saw a truck with 25-26 cows in it and they looked at me I can’t eat them.Anyway I ate spare ribs.Within 20 Minutes I had diarreah.I have suffered from IBS-D for 21 yrs now.I was also diagnoised with pancreas malabsorption syndrome.
I have a friend who claims to be allergic to pork but doesn’t flinch at eating bacon at all. Is it possible that this person is “faking” or overstating their allergy? Can you be allergic to certain preparations of pork meat over others?
I too have just recently starting to have allergies to nitates, nitrite. My doctors said to avoid meat, they never bothered to tell me that potatoes had nitates along with the sodium too,, it almost killed me tonight. I’m afraid to go to sleep. My blood pressure keeps jumping all over the place. I hsve survived a pancreas transplant ,a nec injury and now to have this. I’m so tired. hungry and living off of water. I love milk, but now tonight I don’t even know if I can drink any. I was eating oatmeal but would always get a mucuy throat with it. I saw a neurologist and a gastro doctor today. They’re running tests, I know I’m allergic to pork, and now nitrates. I was eating mandarin oranges but am afraid to eat that too. God is there no help for me? My face is blistering, no need to go to the ER, they don’t have a clue, and gave me bendryl and that started a huge rise in BP. Gave me atavan, and that gave me chest pains. Dear God.
hi, i live in italy. Im really glad that i found this blog. I am convinced that eating various types of meat brings me the flu, and arthritic pains in the neck and lower body. My doctor says thats ridiculous. I have stopped with cheese and dairy products because i either vomit or i get severe pains and diareah. Nobody believes me when i talk about influenza connected with eating meat but i am sure this is what is happening to me. Im tired of flu tablets and painkillers. Ialso get sever migraines. What are your thoughts?
I also have severe hives due to MEAT. I ate some Italian sausage for lunch yesterday and I thought I was going to die. This morning I have hives all over my head. I spent 2010 with doctors for a year trying to figure this all out. I had mouth sores, cold sores and no one knew why. I was on prednisone for so long a pharmacist finally told me to stop eating MEAT. Pork in particular. After I have cut out the pork and limit the amount of meat I eat it has been much better. I don’t know what was in that sausage but the rest of it is going in the trash this morning. The more chemicals they use to farm these animals is whats killing us…all those chemicals end up in our bloodstream and our bodies cant handle it.
i am an indian, i dont eat pork, its forbidden in our family but i have various allergies.
when i was a kid about 1yr old, i was diagnosed with fish and shell fish allergy first as i developed hives instantly after eating a few small bites, my body still shows the same symptoms if i eat fish or dried fish/shrimp containing products. later at 2 yrs old i developed hives due to beef and some eggs which have fishy type of smell when cooked. at the age of 9, after accidentally eating beef i developed hives, digestive problems and worst was a wart like thing in the middle of my palm which needed surgical removal. my parents removed every trace of beef and anything that contains by products from cattle flesh from my diet after that.
all my life i was eating lamb and chicken but after each meal i would puke, get bloated, diarrhea…sometimes its got worse cuz i showed flu like symptoms where antibiotics never helped. i would be sick 5 days a week. in 2003 i started showing more symptoms was even taken to ER. i developed hives after eating lamb. in 2004 i couldnt eat chicken anymore, i would have digestive problems and feel hot, itchy rashes, runny nose, swelling of face, hands and feet.
[This comment is long and has lots of details so I turned it into a separate article - see Multiple Allergies Description Severe Case for the complete article and to leave comments -editor]
I wasn’t born with my allergies, but around age 3 i started becoming allergic to pork, and then chicken, eventually all meats, fish, chicken, etc. When i eat them about 5-10 mins after my tongue and roof of my mouth get itchy, and eventually i break out in hives, and i want to crawl out of my skin its so unbearable. I’ve visited state allergists and they had no clue what was going on, and that i had a “unique situation”. When i eat these foods my throat will also close, and i cant breathe. I’ve been to the ER a few times, and i’ve used my epipen about 3 times, one in which i had to be taken out of school by ambulance, I had a nature valley bar and it had almond flower as one of the last ingredients, so now i am allergic to tree nuts, tried pistachios and walnuts too. No idea what is going on here..
When you say you “don’t know what’s going on”, do you mean you don’t know what allergies you have, or you don’t know why you have them?
Yup.. I am allergic to Chicken, pork, lamb, mushrooms and peanuts.. However for some reason i am no longer allergic to shrimp and shell fish.. I am new to this so i think i am just going to become a vegaterian or just eat avacados and take my multivit.. I can no longer eat gummy bears or fruit snacks. I guess this is gods way of making us eat better.. the sad thing is i am not allergic to beef but dislike the taste of it, but a good chicken salad sandwich or chick fillet nuggets or buffalo hot wings yummy but no more
I saw two allergist, one did the skin testing said I don’t have food allergies, except my blood work says I’m allergic to pork.. Thanksgiving with ham was my last decent meal. I’ve been living off of rice and potato products since then. I’ve had to do my own research I’m histamine intolerant, but nobody can tell me why. I had thyroid cancer and had it removed on the 7th of March. I am eating less than what I was eating before and still having some reactions. I hope my endocrinologist can tell me something about all of this tomorrow, because nobody else has offered any advice. But everything now just about makes me sick. Does anyone else have this problem, mine was not rapid onset but had been stating for years but every doctor dismissed me as saying it’s allergies, but histamine intolerance is a pseudo-allergy. BP goes up, breathing get’s difficult, I take claritin and atenolol for the BP and then the burning around the mouth starts. I hate to even try to eat, even rice checks starts the burning now. I don’t even eat meat anymore.
Could be gluten allergy/celiac disease, and/or milk allergy/lactose intolerance. Or any number of food allergies. See the self testing for allergies article on this site for more ideas.
I was tested for gluten/ celiac disease and not allergic to milk. Had some major right side problems in October and the gi dr did tons of test and procedures and they couldnt find anything out. The nurse suggested 100% pineapple juice to help with digestive and helped a little but not much.
Thanks for the info. I called my family doctor and he is going to order a thyroid test. I don’t think i have ever had one. I have been exhausted lately and my husband just says i am lazy but i am always doing something. The allergy doctor did the stick test (92) on my back and pulled blood to do some more. I will find the results next week. My son used to be allergic to everything but no longer is. I hate that i am being forced to become a vegatarian against my will.
Being tired and confused is a symptom of thryoiditis. I developed histamine intolerance with nitrates and msg allergies too. My endo says they are not connected but she advised me to take pepcid and claritin everyday. Last night I took the pepcid and thought it was going to burn a hole in my chest, but after about 45 minutes it passed and I did feel some better. Pepcid is a histamine blocker II and claritin a histamine blocker I, so for a person who isn’t histamine intolerant why would she prescribe this right? Going to try the pepcid again and hope the rise in blood pressue and burning is less severe tonight. We’ll see how it goes. Good luck. You can still have normal TSH levels and feel terrible so don’t let them pull that on you. It’s about how you feel not about what your numbers say. Mine are high right now but they’re letting it stay that way until my panic attacks abate.
When i eat corn my body attacks the cartilage mainly in my knees. When i eat soy, instant migraines with cerebral swelling, which only started after the first time i tried Singulair. I have a redundant colon which i think my body grew to save me from gluten. If i slip up and eat gluten i get ibd-c. Every time i finish a course of antibiotics i become allergic to a new protein. This is because the meds killed my good enzyme-making gut flora. Sometimes i can get back “lost” protein by eating a tiny amount once a week and build up immunity over time . I’ve got to stop deluding myself. Right now it’s pork.
