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…

Anonymous: Hi Dr.Cabral, Thank you so much for taking the time to answer listener questions every week! A little over a year ago I had a vaginal delivery with forceps. At my six week checkup I was not completely healed and asked to come back another two weeks later. This went on until I was six months postpartum, every time having silver nitrate applied to the scar tissue. At six months postpartum it was finally suggested I have a procedure done where I would go under anesthesia and have the doctor remove all the granulation tissue. My question to you is there anything I could I have done to help my body heal better and avoid that situation? I already take the DNS, zinc, D, omega and probiotic. Thanks again for all you do.

Justin: What are your thoughts on permethrin and insectashield clothing. What are the best natural mosquito and tick repellents? Iâ€™ve heard geranium oil can repel ticks. Is that something youâ€™re familiar with?

Anonymous: I wanted to ask what it might mean when you bowel movements have no or little smell. After doing some research, it seems it could be due to lack of bacteria due to anitbiotics, I do not take those and havent for many years. I did the CBO protocol (first month only) a few months ago, but thats about it. If it helps, I have been diagnosed with dyspepsia. I also have what feels like a strange inflammatory (sometimes w/ burning) painful pressure in my sternum area everyday, and its very discomforting, with the feeling of fullness and cramping on my right abdomen in my liver area (ive done 7 liver flushes before). I that I take 2 caps of mag07 nightly and full spectrum mag as well. I seem to get a lot of mucous coming up my throat thruout the day, even if I havent eaten in a while. Thanks.

Laura: Hi, dr, Cabral.. hope you and your family are well.. Iâ€™m interested in pumpkin seed oil.. is it a healthy option? Not for cooking, but in my country we always use it for salads, it has an amazing aroma and taste and itâ€™s considered very healthy here, lots of people make their own, itâ€™s a whole thing around here ;) But now Iâ€™m not sure how healthy it is because you never mention it.. I only heard it once on your podcast about how to add 3.23 extra years to your life, ep. 2482 - it was part of that research.. Please talk more about it if you can.. I am also interested in the difference between sunflower seeds, sunbutter & sunflower oil.. the latter is unhealthy, but the other two are healthy, right? Could you please explain why? Thank you so much for all your hard work..

Erin: Lung question! I was diagnosed with asthma and allergies at the age of oneâ€¦and still to this day have sinusitis and all kinds of sinus problems depending on the time of year. The asthma had thankfully gotten significantly better. But I recently was listening to someone talk about the connection between dry skin and the lungs in Chinese medicine. This really got me thinking as i have been suffering with dry skin for awhile. He mentioned if you had lung conditions, even way back as a child, you could still have infection left in your lungs. How would one go about getting rid of these old infections ? I am currently on the CBo protocol (not sure if this helps in anyway). Hope this made sense but it really made me think and feel sure this is something i am dealing with
