2920: Benadryl & Gut Health, Help for Lung Issues, Hyperthyroidism & Fertility, Sugar-Free & Weight Gain, Swollen Lymph Nodes in Kids (HouseCall)

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: 

 

Shelly: Hello. Could you explain the long term effects of using Benadryl especially with the gut? I have been using this for so many years due to sleep issues which I believe is due to histamine issues.

 

Terese: Hello and thank you ahead of time for all that you all do. I was diagnosed about 7 years ago with MAC. I did listen to your podcast on lung issues which was helpful but in wondering if you have anything additional to ask to help. I am presently using a nebutilizer with colloidal silver. Wondering if you have helped clients before with Mac. I do not want to do the antibiotic protocol that they have for 15 months with three high-powered antibiotics a day as I know that will wreck the immune system. The bacteria in my lungs has grown the past 3 years. I work part-time M 69 years old and take a low dose of Lisinopril for blood pressure as well. I am 165 lb and in 5 ft 10. I work part-time in my own gardening business but get tired and wear out faster than what I would like.

 

Ify: Hello Dr. Cabral. Thank you for everything you do. I wish I had submitted this question when I first found you but I'm okay with the wait. I have had hyperthyroidism for a number of years now and I have had scans confirming it is caused by graves disease. After being on Tapazole for 2 years and a bit I was advised to take radioactive iodine but decided that wasn't for me and ended up taking herbal teas to mitigate my symptoms. I had decided I wasn't damaging my liver anymore and got off my drugs. Since then my symptoms have been non-existent, resting hear rate averaging 80-90 BPM, no sweating or shaking or any expected symptoms. My new endo says I'm still hyper with THS at
