2229: 6 Factors that Make Life Easier (MM)
I don't necessarily agree with the old Eastern philosophy that life is a constant struggle that we must overcome, however, I do believe that we should find ways to ease our minds… I've found in my practice that many people are in a perpetual cycle of struggle and unhappiness mainly due to just a small handful of reasons - that if overcome would make all the difference… That's why on today's #CabralConcept 2229 I'd like to share with you the 6 factors that make life easier and how you can implement them into your life - Enjoy the show and let me know what you thought in the comments! - - - Show Notes & Resources: http://StephenCabral.com/2229 - - - Dr. Cabral's New Book, The Rain Barrel Effect https://amzn.to/2H0W7Ge - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: http://CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Sleep & Hormones Test (Run your adrenal & hormone levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels)

2228: Dosha Diet, Improving HRV, Anxiety Attacks, Acid Reflux, Fasting with Hypothyroidism (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… Laura: Hi! I am such a huge fan of the podcast and it has really made a huge impact on my life. I recently completed the dosha test and found out that I'm Vata: 55 Pitta: 32 Kapha: 13. It took me by surprise because I have always thought that I'm a Vata-Kapha. So considering my constitution, I was wondering if I should just follow a tridoshic diet because most vata foods aggravate my kapha and i end up gaining weight and also my pitta resulting in inflammation. The only issue is I tend to have vitamin and mineral deficiencies so things like eggs and nuts and seeds help out with that. How can I get the nutrients I need through whole food without aggravating my secondary doshas? Also, I seem to gain more weight in my upper body(arms, waist, back, chest) but not my lower body. I have tried resistance training with emphasis on the lower body but I can never seem to gain any weight there. And when I lose weight, my pitta shoulders are very clearly broader than my lower body. It is like my upper body is all pitta and kapha and my lower body is all vata. I want to gain more weight in my lower body to achieve a bit more balance. How can I get my body to be more symmetrical. through exercise or diet ? ps: I am a 25 year old female Becky: Thank you so much for what you. It is truly amazing. I just listened to the episode on "How Your Habits Form Your Future" and I loved it. I'm an IHP L2 Vata mid twenties. You spoke about the importance of cardio and how it benefits your HRV. I do strength training 4x a week and 10k steps daily. I don't really have time to add more cardio on top and I don't want to lose weight. I'm already 90% vegan with the occasional wild salmon so this makes me very prone to catabolism. I take DNS, mag, balanced zinc, omega 3, vitamin d, C, etc. I do however track my HRV with my Oura ring and would love to improve it (currently around 60) so I'm happy to compromise and add cardio if that will improve my HRV. What are your thoughts? Should I perhaps replace my 10k steps with some cardio? And how long should cardio be? Lisa: Hi Dr Cabral, Thank you for answering my question. My partner is in his early 40's, healthy but doesn't exercise much. The past couple of years he started having quite bad anxiety. When anxiety attacks happen, it takes over his whole body and he can't sleep. This will usually last 1-2days, the following 2 days the anxiety goes away, he feels extremely tired, nauseous, hyperactive, hiccups a lot, generally has unsettled stomach and disturbed sleep. He started seeing a therapist and is seeing some progress. However is there anything else we could do to support his body better from a nutritional/medicinal point of view? We tried magnesium for better sleep but he gets upset stomach even with smaller doses. We tried adrenal soothe it didn't seem to work either in terms of keeping him calm (although he didn't take it regularly). Really appreciate your advice! Lisa Terry: I have recently started your 21 day detox. My question is I also take Nexium for acid reflex. What is your advice for weaning myself off of this over the counter medication to start. Amy: I'm a L2 IHP and I'm a little bit confused when it comes to tackling fasting with hyperthyroid clients. If someone is overweight but has low thyroid should they do the 2 days of fasting in the detox? I would assume yes but then isn't fasting detrimental for the thyroid? What about long-term? They are obviously working on the thyroid but should they do 14-16h fasts overnight? And should they workout before or after breakfast? The answer would be yes to someone on a weight loss plan but I think the answer would be no if someone has a low thyroid? Please help with those 3 questions!

2227: Tudca, Flat Stomach, Facial Peel, Radio Active Iodine, Bumps on Tongue, Need More Oxygen (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: Jen: I haven't heard you talk about the supplement Tudca yet. What is your opinion? Alana: Hello doctor Cabral, I've been listening to your podcast for a few years now, and it's one of the constants in my life, so I really wanted to thank you for that. It takes a lot of time and work to record these every single day, and please know that we notice that and appreciate it greatly. I wanted to ask your opinion about something I've been struggling with for a while: fat and cellulite on my belly. I've never had a flat stomach, but it had gotten worse throughout the years. I'm 43 now, have low female hormones, low thyroid and some gut issues. I'm working on all of those things with a naturopath and have done CBO protocol too. I do 30 minutes or strength training and take long walks, 5-6 days of the week. I'm not overweight and have muscle definition both in my upper and lower body, but my belly just keeps growing it seems. Is there anything you would advise for me to do to get rid of the belly fat and cellulite? I'm already taking supplements, prioritise sleep and relaxation and eat to help my hormone balance and hypothyroidism. Anything you could do to help would be much appreciated! Thank you in advance! Alana Jenny: Hi Dr. Cabral - I've been a loyal listener for several years and can't thank you enough for all that you and your team do for this community. It's truly life changing! I see a dermatologist at least annually to check for moles and early skin cancer spots from years of sun damage in my teens and twenties before I knew better. I've had several removed from my face and chest and because more seem to appear as time goes on. Is there a natural "facial peel" you would recommend that may help with these proactively? I know you've talked about a combination of green clay and ACV. I do have sensitive skin with redness. I think a facial peel may be the way to go for me, but am concerned about going to an esthetician due to the chemicals involved, but I'd like to give the skin on my face a fresh start, if that's even possible. I'd love to know your thoughts about this. Thank you. Gina: Thank you for doing what you do and helping others! I am happy to have found your podcast! When I was 19 I was advised by my endocrinologist to take a radio active iodine pill to deplete my thyroid. My thyroid was hyper now hypo because of the treatment. Is there anything I can do to treat it other than being on Synthroid long term since I have nothing to work with anymore since it is no longer there? Thank you! Moez: Hi Dr. Cabral. I hope you are doing well and have an amazing day. I have been seen these bumps or pimples I am not quite sure what to call them. They just look like a raised tissue or a pimple at the end of my tongue where my throat is. I have never felt anything from them whatsoever. No issues at all. However, they've been there for a while now 4 or 5 years or so. It could be more. As far as I remember it's about 5 years when I first seen them. I wonder what they are and what to do about it. There's about 4 of them two on each side. Sometimes they look big sometimes they look pretty small and not as inflamed I am assuming. I am 29 years old Male, pretty I exercise regularly 4-5 times weight lifting. I eat pretty clean mostly organic, grass feed, pasture raised etc. don't have any issues. I used to smoke before for about 10 years then quit 4 years in now. I Don't drink never have never will either. Take my vitamins regularly. Moez: Hi again Dr. Cabral. I also have a breathing issue sometimes. It feels like I am struggling for air, I try to inhale and I just can't get that oxygen that my body needs. In some cases no matter how many times I try to relax myself and inhale I just can't get that oxygen. The air will go down through my throat but I don't feel like I got the Oxygen I need. So I just stop thinking about it and in about a minute or less I'll just breath normal and have that oxygen. I also sometimes have to move my body and be in a certain position to be able to breath and get oxygen. I had this issue since I was a little kid. I am also more of a mouth breather and sometimes sleep with my mouth open and droll as well. The issue feels worsen when I don't eat very clean like cheat day or over eat on a meal. However, even when I am eating the cleanest it is still there but it feels a lot better. It gets better when I fast but not completely gone tho. Even when I did the 4 days fast i still felt it. I am 29 years old. 5'7 245lb. I am in a weight loss journey still. I was 365lb two years ago. I still got a way to go but taking it slowly and healthy. Side note I do plan on running the big fives pretty soon, I am just not sure if they would help with these issues, As I am feeling pretty amazing otherwise.

2222: 5 Signs You Need to Take a Break (Before You Burn Out) (MM)
In this world, it seems difficult to find the middle ground and instead, the two prevailing philosophies are to either go all out in life 24/7 or look for the easiest way out whenever possible. At least in the west, the constant grinding and pushing yourself to the limit has most certainly won out as the dominant culture. The problem is every person regardless of how strong their constitution is will eventually burn out with this mentality. That's why on today's Cabral Concept 2222 I'll be sharing the five signs you need to take a break before you burn out. - - - Show Notes & Resources: http://StephenCabral.com/2222 - - - Dr. Cabral's New Book, The Rain Barrel Effect https://amzn.to/2H0W7Ge - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: http://CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Sleep & Hormones Test (Run your adrenal & hormone levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels)

2221: Bubbles from Stool, Oat Milk, Migraines from Cold, Adverse Reaction, Amalgam Removal Protocol, White Tongue Coating (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… Ryan:Is it a sign of something wrong if I'm having air bubbles arise from the toilet water after my stool drops in? I don't have any issues with bloating or passing gas in general. When I occasionally do fart, there's no foul smell. I've run the OAT which showed no elevation or issues in my microbial markers, although I'm curious if having air/gas in my stools is something I should be investigating further? I appreciate any input! Sarah: I've been buying this gluten free oat milk in the UK that is organic from a brand that is known for doing everything "all natural". The ingredients in this oat milk are: Gluten free oats (14%), sunflower oil and water. I emailed them to ask whether this sunflower oil was heated and they said the following "they only use cold pressed sunflower oil in the product but that the product itself has to be heated for the safety and shelf life of the drink. This is done at very high temperatures for a short period of time. " Now, I'm skeptical about this. I know that heating sunflower oil is not good for the body, or is this ok given that it's a very short time? Evan: Noticing I get migraines when the weather gets cold. Any suggestions? Courtney: Hi there! One of my closest friends had a pretty immediate strong reaction to the (shall not be named) virus shot. He sweat profusely as if he'd dumped a bucket of water over his head. Since the shot, vitiligo has kicked in (which he had no history of) and he continues to lose pigmentation on his face and arms. Any known connection? Advice for how to intervene? Thanks so much, from a long time patient of your practice! Renata: Hello Dr. Cabral , first I wanna thank you for all you do for people, all your time and effort to help as many people as possible. I found you on MindPump podcast and since then I am listening and learning so much! Thank you! Here is my question, I am doing the 21 day detox (on day 11 now) everything is going great .love it so much. My sleeping got so much better. I am learning to drink more water and wanna keep the meal schedule. After this detox I was gonna do your CBO protocol but I am having dental procedure in March and I feel that it would would be waste of time and money to do the CBO protocol. They will remove some if my amalgam fillings and extract one tooth and put me on antibiotics. What would be the best approach before, during and after? I did the mineral test and candida, metabolic, mineral test December. I have some deficiencies (B12, C) I think it is from tooth infection I have going.and some bacteria overgrowth, I think. I don't have any issues really, but my body is probably fighting hard. I am 44y old. 25%fat. 148lbs. (Not sure if that helps;)) Exercise (resistance training) almost daily and have job where I move all the time. So I am quite active. I do infrared sauna (higher doze) almost daily. Thank you so much Renata Karim: If the stool test and OAT do not show yeast/candida and oral health is on point (tongue scraping/floss/oil pulling), what would another reason be for white coated tongue?

2220: Stomach Bleeding, Sea Moss, Mold Levels, HCL & H. Pylori, Osteopenia, Hooked Shaped Rash (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: Anonymous: If you or a family member were diagnosed with Barrett's esophagus and put on omeprazole at a very high dose to stop stomach bleeds but has since caused incredible iron deficiency where you have to have it intravenously supplemented, what would you do? Sarah: Hi Dr Cabral! Happy New Year to you and your family, I'm incredibly grateful to have found you and your wealth of information that you provide for the improved health of our world. As an ICU nurse of 10 years I am so incredibly grateful to be in your IHP course and learning other more pure and healthful ways to care for people by keeping them out of the hospital and hopefully heading off chronic illness and disease. My question is what are your thoughts about sea moss as a dietary supplement? As long as it is of course very cleanly and purely grown and harvested? It's said to have a myriad of benefits including vitamins and minerals as well as appetite suppression and GI regulation, but I have been wondering about your thoughts on it for awhile. Thanks so much and have a wonderful day! Angie: I recently ran the Mold lab with Great Plaines - MycoTox report with my naturopathic doctor and it showed elevated levels of Aspergillus Ochratoxin A at level 15.87. I had a consultation with her and she didn't think my levels were high enough to do a mold protocol. Back story, I have struggled with bloating, constipation and a rash on the back of my head for years that started after living with my mother in laws house who did have mold. I have eradicated parasites and HPylori, but I still don't feel well. If I stay on a strict Candida diet I feel better, but I had vinegarette the other day and the rash on my head intensified. I don't want to just manage my symptoms, but get to the root of the problem. I say all this because I'd like to do your mold protocol to get the fungus back in control, but with my levels do you suggest I do that? I am currently doing the CBO finisher. Michael: Hi Dr Cabral, I had a question regarding HCL. I keep hearing not to take HCL when you have a h pylori infection. But about if someone has h pylori and sibo? Yasmin: I am a 57 year old female and have recently been experiencing lower back pain and decided to get some tests.done. I was diagnosed with osteopenia. Was prescribed 50,000 iu of vitamin d and some calcium, zinc and magnesium supplements. My question is, is there any treatment that I can follow that will reverse the osteopenia? And any other advice you can give me. My grandmother had osteoporosis and my mother was borderline. Thank you so much . Have been listening to your podcasts which I came across recently. Jasmin Shane: Hi Dr. Cabral, I have experienced the last 3 years a discomfort / slight pain on the right side of my head, neck / shoulder mostly feel it behind my right ear and top of head especially when i wake up along with my right hand feeling cold and stiff when I wake up. I also have a 4 inch hook shaped rash on the right side of my neck recently right behind my ear. After being diagnosed with a fatty liver and gallstones. I have done multiple liver and gallbladder flushes and have got out thousands of stones which has improved my symptoms and health immensely! Also have done the big 5 labs and have Candida Overgrowth, SIBO, but interesting I didn't have any food sensitivities which I was curious can you have a leaky gut and not have any food sensitivities? I also ordered the stool test recently so will be doing that as well to see if I have any other imbalances. Also starting the CBO Protocol in the next month so I was just curious do you think this could be my vagus nerve being overactive due to the imbalance in my body causing my right side of my head, neck and shoulders to have discomfort and pain? I workout 6 times a week, eat a balanced plant based diet, take supplements, get chiropractor and acupuncture care so just curious what else to do? Thank You for all you do!
