Check out today's questions:
Taran: Hi Dr. Cabral! You are amazing and I truly appreciate your willingness to share your knowledge with the world. I was diagnosed with ichthyosis vulgaris when I was born. I have had very dry skin since birth. It was a lot worse when I was younger. It is much better, however would still be classified as very dry for a normal person. I have to regularly apply moisturizers on my entire body at least 2x daily. Thanks to your recommendation , I discovered my moisturizer was toxic (7 on ewg skin deep) I have 2 questions: 1. Can I do anything from the inside to heal my skin in the long run rather than relying on moisturizers? 2. What is the best for applying topically on skin? Oils? Moisturizers?
Aleisha: Hi Dr Cabral, thank you so much for everything you do and your generosity and energy in this world. I know you don’t like to discuss specific brands on the podcast however I was wondering what your thoughts are on the ‘recovery’ formula from the ‘Osmosis Skincare’ Wellneas range. It says it can rebuild the fat pads lost with aging, I am 33 however due to a pretty intense health journey I have lost much of the volume in my fat pads and feel I look as if have aged dramatically and am considering giving this a go. The main basis of it is that it contains omegas 3,6,7 &9 from sea buckthorn fruit, oil & pulp and some macadamia oil. It is a very expensive product and the claim is that it takes 3 bottles to see changes and 7 bottles for best results. Is there an alternative to this you recommend?
Anouk: Hi there, Thanks for all the information you give out so generously. in July I tested pos. for ( ureaplasma, gardnerella, and candida alb) I took one round of doxy 7 days and a few months later I caught strep and re-tested for everything I still had the Urea +candida but I took clarithromycin for the strep. Of course all of these antibiotics were screwing up my vaginal microbiome.. I since have had a pap that came back HPV pos. ( LSIL) not sure if it the the stress of all of this but for the past few weeks i've had unbearable lower tailbone butt bone / pelvic floor aching and leg cramping, I can feel my vaginal muscles are almost in a permanent kegel and it's very hard to relax down there. Regardless of the pain i'd really like to do what I can to eradicate ALL of these things!
Glenn: What is the difference between caffeine and caffeine anhydrous as found in pre workout drinks and how bad is thus compound for the body. I’ve found info online on preworkouts and energy drinks but they all seem to revolve around the sugars/ artificial sweeteners in them rather than the other compounds. I enjoy taking these daily and found one that’s pretty clean and devoid of sugars so are these really that bad long term? Thank you
Noel: What is you opinion on cupping therapy? I am not talking about wet cupping but just regular cupping. I am a 67 year old female and like 50 lbs overweight so probably have metabolic syndrome so may be prone to heart issues, stroke. But I am most concerned about my kidneys. A few years back I was diagnosed with kidney failure, GFR was 11! Now it is over 60 for the last several years. I understand if there is toxic removal it would get removed through my kidneys ( and liver) and don’t want to overtax my kidneys. I am very active otherwise and don’t have any aches and pain anywhere. Would also love to minimize my cellulite.
