The Cabral Concept 3166: Reducing Food & Environmental Allergies, Heart Medication, Berberine Use, Feeling Sick in the Sun, Lingering Sickness in Kids (HouseCall)
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…
Raquel: Hi, I wanted to know if it's possible to get rid of food and environmental allergies. I cannot tolerate fruits, vegetables, nuts, and nickel-containing products due to these. Even if I cook everything (OAS), I still get an itchy mouth, wheezing, and/or vomiting/diarrhea (especially with eggplant, coconut, and nuts). I did IgE blood and skin testing and was allergic to everything tested. I also tried allergy shots for 5 years. I also have IBS-D and fiber/grains are a major trigger. The one thing that has worked to reduce my symptoms (hives, itchy mouth, asthma, diarrhea) is to eat an elimination diet (no plants), but I am worried about this long term. I am allergic to your HistPro and Sinus Support supplements I assume due to the plants in them. Any help greatly appreciated, thanks so much! Matthew: My mother saw her doctor and he told her that her heart is not pumping enough blood throughout her body and she needs to see specialist. Now on the allopathic side I know they’re gonna have her take heart medication. I know my experience that heart medication causes so many problems overtime just like other medication cause problems. I wanted to know what can she do for a naturopathic/ functional medicine perspective, or should I say try before she goes into the medication aspect? Because from the sounds of it to me, her EF or ejection fracture is lower than it should be. I may be wrong but that’s what it sounds like to me. I’m hoping you can help thanks Amy: Should one take a break from berberine need to be stopped after taking it 6 months? It is the only thing that stopped my hot flashes so i don't want to stop. Maria: Why does the heat of the sun make me feel sick? Jillian: My 3.5 year old daughter develops a cough that can last a month+ after being sick. This cough wakes her at night, sometimes causing her to vomit from coughing so hard. During these times she will cough after running around also. This happens every few months, with some time in between of no symptoms. It seems like asthma but I am unsure of what to do. How safe are breathing treatments and inhalers for children? Does this mean she requires antibiotics to clear any infection from a lingering sickness? Most importantly, why would this be happening to her? Would removing tonsils help? I’m trying to weigh the pros and cons of treating her with western medicine letting it be and seeing if it stops as she gets older. She’s only had antibiotics once in her life and eats fairly well for a toddler.
