Psyllium Husk Timing and Effects
Dr. Cabral clarifies psyllium slows but does not block nutrient absorption, is safe with shakes, and cautions only with certain medications.
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…
Gaby: Hello! Hope your having a great day. I searched your podcast for something on birth defects, but didn't find a lot. Can you tell me what causes birth defects (besides genetics) and how to prevent them (even with genetics). And if I have MTHFR, should I be concerned about using 1020 mcg of L-5MTHF? I heard that that amount can build up in the body even with this form. I'm using a prenatal with that amount and I'm hoping to become pregnant next year. Derrick: Hi there. My dad is on dialysis and needs to have a kidney transplant. I would love him to see a FM doctor but at 71, the approach feels completely foreign. Please can you help with any diet/supplement recommendations / foundations that could support him. The smallest tips that provide the biggest impact would be so appreciated. Dana: Hi Dr. Cabral, I listened to your review of the Neuropod. I was wondering if you measured the emf's? And what level were they? Thank you, Dana Mohamed: Good day Dr.Cabral, appreciate all the work you do and the entire Equilife team. Thanks for everything. My question is regarding IOP pressure. Laser eye surgery due to "drainage" was mentioned however it seems like it's more for "preventative purposes". However the alternative mentioned was a 20-30% risk of developing acute glaucoma. Her IOP is normal for now… no other alternatives were suggested. I feel like they are jumping to laser eye surgery (risk).. thoughts? Any other tips for eye health in general, nutrition supplements.. etc. I know you mentioned Lutin before. Thanks Sarah: I heard you mention that you add psyllium husk to your shake every day. I am starting to add psyllium husk to my diet, but I am wondering about timing. I read that you should take psyllium one hour before or two hours after any supplements as it can combine with certain nutrients and reduce absorption. If you add the psyllium to your shake with the DNS Powder, does that not reduce absorption of any of the nutrients? I just started taking it and have been careful to take it away from my supplements, but it would be much easier to just take with my shake or meal. I really appreciate your help!
