Lamb

What is Lamb?

Lamb is the meat from young sheep, typically under one year old. It is known for its tender texture and distinct flavor. Lamb is commonly used in various cuisines around the world, including Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and Indian dishes. It can be prepared in many ways, such as roasting, grilling, or stewing.

Why Do I Have an Intolerance to Lamb?

Intolerance to lamb can stem from a few factors. Some people may have difficulty digesting red meats due to enzyme deficiencies or gastrointestinal conditions. Others might have an allergy to specific proteins found in lamb, leading to symptoms like digestive discomfort, bloating, or skin reactions. Additionally, intolerance can be linked to high levels of histamines or additives used in processed lamb products.

What Can I Do About It?

To manage lamb intolerance, try eliminating it from your diet and monitor if symptoms improve. Opt for other protein sources such as chicken, turkey, or plant-based proteins. Cooking methods and avoiding processed meats can also help.
