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:

E.L: Hi Dr. Cabral, I had an endoscopy done in Jan 2024 and found gastrointestinal intestinal metaplasia in the stomach. In July I had a 2nd endoscopy done (to take a more deeper look and map it) and the results were the same and “stable” (no change), the Gastro said that it looked more like autoimmune gastritis because I tested positive for the antibody, she explained it to be one in the same. She said not to worry because the chances it become malignant (dysplasia and on) were slim and monitor it (repeat the endoscopy) in 2 years. Had a GI Map done per my Int Doc that ruled out H. pylori, which she said was not real data and disregarded it. Taking gastric gum and GI benefits, manuka honey on occasion. How long should I take these supplements for? For ever? What can I do? Can it be reversed? Alicja: Hi Dr. Cabral, I recently asked you about very high levels of vit. B12 that my blood work shows (despite not supplementing with B12, other than what's in my Multi) You said it may be a liver issue - that perhaps my liver is not processing my B12 and that's why the vitamin keeps circulating in my bloodstream. Can you please elaborate on this? How can I check if my liver does not process my B12? What kind of tests should I run for my liver? Thank you so much for your help. Alicja: Hi again. What is your opinion about electric cars? Is it true that they are big "EMF boxes" Ever since someone mentioned that, I can't help but wonder if it's true. I would love if you could make a show about this, perhaps with results of what EMF readers show inside a Tesla, Cyber truck and the self driving Weymo. Thank you again for spreading your amazing knowledge. Kelsey: Hi Dr. Cabral. I was wondering if you have heard of the brand of cookware called Hexclad. It advertises as getting the cooking experience of stainless steel, nonstick, and cast iron all in one hybrid pan. They say the nonstick is called TerraBond which is PTFE free and free from forever chemicals, and is a patented technology. Thanks for your input!! Jasmine: Hey there, Firstly, I want to thank you for all the podcasts you put out, and all that you give. I am in the best health now at 36 years old, because of how much I’ve learned & applied from all you’ve discovered and shared with us. I had my first baby last March, and plan to try for another next year, in hope that they are. somewhere close to 2 + years apart. I noticed the veins on my arms and hands enlarged during pregnancy and have remained enlarged post pregnancy (9 months now). They often ache. I started out at a healthy weight, 5’ 9” 136lbs, gained 23 lbs during the pregnancy. I am wondering if there is anything I should consider doing/taking to help with the veins on my next pregnancy, maybe increasing my blood flow etc. would love to hear you thoughts. Thanks so much!
