Catgut and the Alpha-Gal Friendly Diet
Catgut is a material traditionally made from the intestines of sheep or goats, and it is commonly used in medical sutures, string instruments, and sports equipment. Despite its name, it is not derived from cats. Catgut is not usually found in food products, but it may be present in some medications, supplements, or cosmetic products where its use as a natural binding or stabilizing agent is beneficial.
