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:
Ryan: First off, thanks again for all that you do in providing great content, services and products to our community. I have a question in terms of tinctures. I am currently growing shiitake and lion's mane mushrooms on logs in my yard along with harvesting wild oyster and turkey tail mushrooms. After eating ample mushrooms I will have a lot extra and am thinking of making a dual extract tincture with all 4 mushroom types to take advantage of the medicinal properties. My question is if you end up with a 30% alcohol tincture and take a dropper per day does the alcohol consumed counteract the benefits of the mushrooms? Can kids consume tinctures? Thanks again.
Alicja: Dear Dr. Cabral, Could you please explain the difference between Adrenal Soothe and Adrenal Energy Support (EquiLife supplements) Which circumstances would a be better fit for adrenal soothe and when adrenal energy support is better. Thank you so much.
Keith: Dr. Cabral, I'm 61 years old, I've lived with Crohn's since my early teens and despite numerous doctors, psychiatrists, tests my disease went undiagnosed. I suffered through many episodes of depression, apathy, anxiety and general malaise. At 46 my disease flared and I was misdiagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis, being treated for UC for 3.5 years with multiple flare-ups, hospitalizations, prednisone cycles, etc. After a severe flare-up I ended up in the Emergency Room at the University of Chicago, by God's grace Dr. David Rubin was on call and took over my case. Two days later after multiple tests, I was told my colon was ready to rupture in 4 spots(1in each segment), 5 days later surgery to remove 98% of my large intestine. 6 months later after a sigmoidscopy, I endured a 10.5 hr. surgery due to the significant scar tissue and inflammation. I live with a permanent Ileostomy. I've been on an 11 year journey to understand and develop a lifestyle to adapt to this handicap and have yet to be exposed to a comprehensive article, podcast, etc to better understand this condition. Your podcasts have enlightened me on so many subjects and would ask if you might able to address this on one of your podcasts? Sincerely Keith
Ryan: Thanks again for all that you do and hope you are having a great day. For my question, once you take the time and put in the effort to get your gut rebalanced how sensitive is it to becoming imbalanced and what can you do to help maintain? More specifically, on a week long vacation I can have a few alcoholic drinks daily, would this or could this mess things up? Is there anything that can be done during the vacation to help reduce the risk? Daily foundational protocol, healthy gut support, probiotics, immune support…? Have you heard of ZBiotics? It is a pre-alcohol probiotic that breaks down acetaldehyde, would this help? Once again I know the best answer is to abstain from daily alcoholic drinks but just wondering how to reduce the potential damage. Thanks again.
Kevin: Hi, I have recently been diagnosed with sarcoidosis. Are there protocols or perhaps labs whose result(s) would provide a path beyond medications?...or is conventional medicine my only option? Thanks, Kevin
Katherine: I had a thyroid storm in 1984, and my thyroid was radiated. I have been on Synthroid for 38 years. i was diagnosed with Graves in 1984. I am 60 years old. 5'3 135 pounds. I have struggled with my weight for all of these years. How do I stoke my metabolism without a T-3 or T-4 gland?
