Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend!

I’m looking forward to sharing with you some of our community’s questions that have come in over the past few weeks…

Jenny: Hi Dr. Cabral, First, thank you to you and your amazing team for selflessly giving of your time and knowledge so we can all learn and grow on our health journeys. We can't really express this enough. I have a question about your Alkalizing Vitamin C product. You've recommended this as something to take in water upon waking, but could it also be effective when I add it to my morning smoothie or is it better to take separately? I don't enjoy the taste on its own, so I'm unlikely to drink it just in water. Any suggestions? Thanks! Kavita: Hello Dr. Cabral, First, I want to thank you for your amazing work! I listen to your podcast every day, which means I've been consistently listening for the past 3,231 days! :) I have an important question for you. I recently started taking Berberine, but a friend mentioned that it may have adverse reactions. She told me about her neighbor, who had to stop taking it because doctors wouldn't perform surgery on her while she was using Berberine. I’m unsure of the exact details, but it raised some concerns. I started taking Berberine because there's diabetes in my family, and I'm hoping to avoid getting on any medications as I move ahead in life. How do I make sure it is working for me? I hope this gets on your list soon :) Thank you, Kavita ( Pronounced - ka-vee-tha) Jenni: Hi, I’ve been battling Meibomian Gland Disorder for over a year. The only thing that has provided relief has been taking 50mg daily of doxycycline. I’ve been on this dosage for 10 months. My doctor has tried weaning me off, but the symptoms pop back up after 4-5 days. Nobody seems to understand why this issue arose suddenly, and no one can offer me help outside of antibiotics. Do you have any experience in helping patients with MGD? Could this be due to heavy metals, gut issues, systemic inflammation? I’m desperate for natural relief. Thank you, Jenni Michael: Hi Dr. Cabral. Thank you for the work you do and especially taking time to answer people's questions. My question is regarding to home oil as the main heating source. What are your thoughts on the cleanest and safest option? We currently have the standard heating oil. There is an option to change the oil to a B50 blend which consists of a 50/50 blend of standard heating oil and biodiesel. This would then convert to a B99 fuel which is 99% biodiesel. Any thoughts on this subject or know of a place I can go to research more? Thank you! Paedyn: Hi Dr Cabral, but of a hard to question. What are some ways I can naturally treat MALS (median arcuate ligament syndrome). I woke up randomly with stomach pain in my epigastric region one day out of nowhere and Dr’s are saying it’s this and that the only treatment option is very major surgery which only a select handful of surgeons perform this surgery worldwide and a lot of people end up worse off after the surgery. I just want to heal my body naturally. Thank you so much!
