Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows!

This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track!

Check out today's questions:

Elizabeth: Hi Dr Cabral! Thank you for your informative podcast. I searched in past episodes & didn't find the answer to my question so I thought I'd write in. I'm a 49 year old woman & had bloodwork done for the first time a little over a year ago. Everything looked good except my ferritin was low at 9. For the next 12 months I took iron supplements 2-3 times a week & started eating more iron rich foods including red meat & beef liver pills. When ferritin was tested again it was only up to an 11. My PCP is now recommending I get an iron infusion. Are these safe? What might be the root cause of my low ferritin? I'm still menstruating but have never been heavy. I eat a balanced diet including meat & always have. I exercise 4-5x/ week. Could this just be genetic? Should I be concerned? Thx, Elizabeth Carrieann: Hi Dr Cabral! I love listening to your podcasts. I have a rare disease called Mastocytosis. Do you have any recommendations for natural supplements that might help. I am currently taking vitamin C and Quercitin and it they do help. I would love to improve my gut but I am a little confused on how to go about doing that when I need to keep histamines low and all the things like probiotics, kimchi, bone broth are all high histamine. Thank you for your help!! Darren: Good day Dr. Cabral. I recently got diagnosed with folliculitis and eczema by a dermatologist who stated it was spurred by my skin reacting to my many sauna sessions and regular dry brushing. Unfortunate, cause I enjoy both. I abhored the idea, but the doctor recommended doxycycline antibiotics and mupirocin topical cream which did stem the constant itching, redness, flaking. I've no noticeable side effects from medication. What do you suggest I use post medication to ensure healthy gut and it reoccurring? I was thinking maybe the clean gut probiotic or daily detox. Keep up good work. Darren: Good day, Dr Cabral. It's me again. I asked this months ago, but never got a response. Maybe question got lost or your team pulled it given it can be perceived as controversial. I appreciate your Mindset & Motivational Monday shows and all the teachings from Dispenza etc about not stressing but focusing and living in the moment. However, how does one adhere to those practices if they were living in say a conflict zone where things are beyond their control like Congo, Palestine, Sudan? Where food isn't guaranteed but constant attacks are? I get if you choose not to answer on air. Keep up good work. Sheena: Hi Dr. C! Hope you are well. After doing a Food Sensitivity test, my results showed I'm allergic to cows milk dairy. Which, I already knew for years because every time I eat dairy, like clockwork, 2-3 days later, I'd break out really bad. And even though it only takes 2-3 days to happens, it takes me at least 4+ weeks to start to clear up. My question is, would it help if I were to take a Lactaid or a dairy intolerance pill? It seems that most of those pills help with gas and bloating, which I don't get. I just get really bad acne. But was hoping that I could take this before eating a meal that I'm not 100% sure about to prevent break outs. If not Lactaid, is there a pill you could recommend that could help? Thank you so much for answering my question and for being my health GURU! :) Thank you for tuning into today's Cabral HouseCall and be sure to check back tomorrow where we answer more of our community’s questions! - - -
