ADVICE

Prep For Pregnancy By Reducing Toxins

  • Check medications and environmental toxins before pregnancy to reduce birth defect risks.
  • Run key labs, detox heavy metals, fix gut issues, and correct nutrient deficiencies like folate and omega-3s before conception.
ADVICE

Appropriate Methylfolate For Pregnancy

  • Taking ~800–1200 mcg methylfolate is appropriate when planning pregnancy and during pregnancy.
  • Dr. Stephen Cabral pairs methylfolate with a nutritional shake, 2 g omega-3s, vitamin D, and a probiotic.
ADVICE

Careful Supplement Planning For Dialysis

  • Be cautious with supplements for dialysis patients and coordinate all changes with the nephrologist.
