Can Autism Symptoms Be Reversed?
In this thought-provoking episode of the Patrick Holford Podcast, three leading experts explore whether symptoms of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) can be reduced—or even reversed.
Joined by Dr. Lorene Amet, Beth Lambert, and Dr. Heather Tallman Ruhm, the conversation unpacks the rising rates of autism, the growing role of environmental and dietary factors, and how early-life exposures may affect neurodevelopment.
Key topics include:
Why autism rates have surged in recent decades
The link between gut health, immune stress, and brain development
How overlapping conditions like ADHD and sensory issues fit into the picture
Emerging functional strategies to support neurodevelopment through nutrition, detox, and lifestyle
Rethinking autism as a complex, multi-faceted condition opens the door to new possibilities—and hope—for children and families navigating neurodivergence.
