Is Avocado a Hidden Migraine Trigger? What Eastern and Western Medicine Reveal


Listen Later

That creamy avocado on your toast might not be as harmless as it looks — especially if you’re migraine-prone.

In this episode of the Migraine Heroes Podcast, we dig into a surprising question: Could avocado be making your migraines worse? Diane Ducarme takes you through the journey from traditional Eastern medicine to cutting-edge Western research, revealing how one popular "health food" might be quietly stirring up inflammation and neurological chaos.

You’ll learn:

🥑 Why avocados are considered yin-nourishing in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) — and when that’s a problem

🥑 How avocado acts as a histamine liberator and what that means for your brain and immune system

🥑 The connection between tyramine, digestion, and migraine susceptibility

🥑 Who should avoid avocados — and who might actually benefit from them

Avocados aren’t inherently bad — but if you struggle with a foggy brain, long migraine hangovers, loose stools, or allergies, they may be tipping your system out of balance.

This episode blends real clinical data with 700+ case studies from the Migraine Heroes method. Because no two migraine stories are the same — and healing starts with knowing yours.

For women, men, and children who suffer from migraine disease, Migraine Heroes is your go-to resource for understanding, managing, and overcoming migraine attacks.

We cover all types of migraines and related headaches, including primary and secondary migraines, chronic migraines, and cluster migraines. We dive deep into the complexities of migraine with aura and migraine without aura, as well as rarer forms like hemiplegic migraine, retinal migraine, and acephalgic migraine (silent migraine). Our discussions also extend to cervicogenic headaches, ice pick headaches, and pressure headaches, which often mimic migraine or contribute to overall migraine burden.
