Potassium Tallowate and the Alpha-Gal Friendly Diet

Potassium Tallowate is a soap-forming agent created by the reaction of animal tallow with potassium hydroxide. It is primarily used in the production of cleaning products, cosmetics, and personal care items due to its ability to effectively break down oils and grease. This ingredient is derived from animal fat, making it unsuitable for those avoiding animal-based products for dietary or ethical reasons.
