Episode 200: Autistic Picky Eaters and the Peculiar Effects of a Restricted Diet

“In today’s episode, Dr. Jaime Hoerricks explores the connection between diet and health, particularly for autistic people and those undergoing HRT. One article focuses on histamine intolerance as a potential cause of “picky eating” in autistic individuals, detailing a personal experience and a restrictive, high-fat, low-carb, histamine-free diet that improved health after traditional medical approaches failed. The second article discusses how this ketogenic and anti-inflammatory diet may have unexpectedly accelerated the author’s hormone replacement therapy, leading to rapid physical and emotional changes. It posits that the diet’s impact on metabolism and hormone transport could enhance HRT effectiveness, highlighting a gap in current medical research on this interaction.”
