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:

Kristina: My seven year old son had a strange episode at school that mimicked a stroke. The school nurse called and described my son's situation to me. His right leg, right arm and right side of his face were heavy and hard to move. He was unable to articulate what was going on. Ended up in ER where he had a CT scan. We followed up with an EEG a couple days later. All came back normal and they are guessing he had a hemipalegic migraine because everything resolved with no residual side effects. I'm curious what you know about these types of migraines and how to not experience any again.

Renta: Hi Dr Cabral, thank you for your help. Iâ€™m a 38 year old woman who is healthy. I eat well, keep toxic products out of my home and lift weights 2-3 times per week. Iâ€™ve been dealing with this problem for over 2 years now and I donâ€™t know what else to do. I have not had any c**id vX and had c**id in October 2021. During that week that I was sick I had my period. The main symptom I had was really extreme headaches. I donâ€™t know if itâ€™s linked to c**id but since then almost every period begins with a headache that can last 1-3 days. It is localised pain that I can pinpoint at the base of my head on the left side. It radiates up my head over my forehead and down into my eye socket. I also need to urinate frequently when this happens. Sometimes it might happen the week before my period.

Maria: It is very difficult to find a Biological dentist in Mass, can you provide a list?

Drew: Dr Cabral, Two years ago I ran the starter kit and started on the daily nutritional support shake in the morning and added in the B complex in the afternoon per the coaches recommendation. After a while I noticed that taking the B complex in the afternoon would make me feel like I had drank too much coffee and I would be on edge. I stopped taking the B complex and continued the DNS in the mornings. After about 6 to 9 months (not really sure of the exact time frame) I began to get the same feeling after my morning smoothie with the DNS. Wanting to stay on a multivitamin I went to a new company multi and got that same feeling; like I drank too much coffee. I am assuming that this feeling has something to do with the B vitamins. Can you help me understand what may be going on?

Erin: Hello Dr. Cabral, can you speak to EMF protectors for AirPods? I know the most ideal option is to use traditional headphones, but for those unwilling to forego wireless is this a legitimate option? More specifically, would love a product review on the Bodywell brand. Thanks!
