The Cabral Concept

Never let your doctor tell you that you have a disease that can't be undone… At one point in your life you most likely didn't have it, and if that's the case why can't you go back to that state of health? Or better? Auto-immune dis-eases are no different and once you begin to understand the root cause and how to get back to health you just need to follow the protocols and systems… On today's #CabralConcept 2209 I'd like to share with you why all auto-immune diseases are fixable and how to go about bringing your body back into balance - Enjoy the show and let us know what you thought in the comments! - - - Show Notes & Resources: http://StephenCabral.com/2209 - - - 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)

Most people set one alarm every single day… And if you're like most people that is the alarm that wakes you up out of your slumber to jump into the day… This is actually my least important alarm of the day (I explain why) and it's one that I would begin to rethink… Besides that, I have 5 others that I believe everyone should set and on today's #CabralConcept 2208 I share what they are, at what times, and why I set them - Enjoy the show and let me know if you set any of your own! - - - Show Notes & Resources: http://StephenCabral.com/2208 - - - 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)

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… Let's get started! Solina: Hi Dr. Cabral! Female in my late 20s. I grew up running (and love it) and I've had to stop because of horomone (low progesterone) and adrenal issues. I've worked with a IHP health coach, following a protocol of adrenal soothe, lower impact workouts (resistance, weights, walking) but I really miss running. For context, I like semi-long distance at 5-8 miles, but whenever I run (even 2-3 miles) I get exhausted. Any suggestions on how I can get back to running at least 1-2x per week? It also helps me lose weight much more seamlessly than strength. Thank you!! Tina: Hello and thank you for everything you do for us! This year I would love to go to a wellness, retreat center somewhere in the United States that incorporates pretty much everything that you believe. Do you know of a place or can you recommend a place to go to that can assist me in my health journey? Also have you ever considered hosting a retreat, wellness week or weekend? If you did I definitely would attend. Thank you so much! Anonymous: Hi Dr. Cabral, I have struggled many years with chronic constipation, trapped gas, and bloating. I have seen several "specialists" and received CT scans, x-rays, colonoscopies, etc. only to have them shrug their shoulders. During the imaging, doctors noticed several areas that appeared to be scar tissue and always asked if I had "been shot" or had abdominal surgery, neither of which I have. Dietary intervention has helped with additional post prandial symptoms, but the symptoms prevail nonetheless. My question is with regard to abdominal adhesions, or scar tissue, without having had surgery. I understand this is common following intra abdominal procedures, but am curious as to how it could develop on its own. Is it possibly a result of spending years being constantly bloated and distended? For some context, I am 27, workout daily, and seem to manage stress well through my day-to-day. I am currently awaiting results from the Complete Gut Bacteria & Parasite test. Also, I have been seeing a physical therapist for over a year that specializes in visceral manipulation and lymphatic flow and they are certain the scar tissue is the culprit. Their treatments have helped but not entirely resolved issues. Sorry for the lengthy question, and I truly appreciate and value your response. Pauline: Hello Dr Cabral, I had severe endometriosis before and had surgery to remove them including 2 big chocolate cysts and a whole lot of adhesions in my pelvic region. Now, I even lost one tube and it looks like my other ovary is stucked to my uterus. It may be due to endo again or scar tissues from 2 surgeries. My other ovary has chocolate cyst again - found out after my 2nd ivf procedure....which failed. I came across serrapeptase as a supplement to clear blocked tubes. I am wondering if this can help with adhesions and chocolate cycts too? Age is catching up on me and I can't wait to be a mother. Have been trying for a few years without avail. I am looking forward to your reply. Hopeful, Pauline Sam: Hi doctor Cabral,What do you think about earthing sheets? I live in a big city and can't really go barefoot on a daily - or even a weekly base, so sleeping on one of those sheets sounds like a great solution. Before investing in it, I wanted to hear your opinion because I trust your judgement and knowledge greatly. Can't wait to hear your thoughts about it! Thank you! Sam Sylvia: Hi doctor Cabral, First of all, thank you for this incredible podcast. I'm learning so much about my health, it's incredible! Secondly, I wanted to tell you that one positive thing that these difficult past two years have brought me, is that I have more time to walk. My average step count for the last year has been whopping 19500, which is incredible(!!). I haven't lost a huge amount of weight, but I feel amazing and am in the best shape of my life. Now that we are getting back to the normal schedules, I won't be able to walk as much, so I'm a bit concerned that I'm going to gain weight and not feel as great. What do you think? How bad will it be to get back to my normal 10K? And how many steps should I try to take in order to keep my great results from the past two years? Thank you! You are amazing!

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: Hi Dr. Cabral- First I would like to thank you for everything you do. You have educated me so much and changed my life for the better. I have a three year old daughter who was diagnosed with febrile seizures at the age of two. If she catches a virus or infection at school (very common) and gets a fever to spike quickly she can have a febrile seizure. Fevers as low as 101 can cause these. While terrifying when they are happening we have been told around 5% of children have this condition and they typically go away around age 5 or 6 and is nothing to be worried about. The pediatrician and neurologist have told us this. When these fevers occur we spend one to two days constantly giving her Tylenol and motrin to bring the fever down. We are constantly testing the temperature and if it gets above 99, it causes us great anxiety that a seizure is coming. I am looking for what the root causes could be here to try and prevent them from occurring and how to possibly bring the fever down without constantly pumping her with drugs. Basically if this was your daughter what would you do? Based on what I have learned from you there has to be a root cause here and some type of action we can take. Victoria: Hi Dr Cabral. I tend to eats lots of raw nuts like Almonds and seeds I'm very active and it doesn't makes me fats I eat very healthy No sugar takes al the vitamins from your practice But I'm wondering if Therese is something I'm missing Thank you Anonymous: Hi Dr. Cabral, I wanted to get your thoughts on how to effectively identify the root cause and reduce high uric acid. I had a Uric acid level of over 10 and made some lifestyle changes including losing 50lbs, reducing alcohol intake and taking tart cherry extract to reduce it. I was only able to reduce it to 9.6 so my doctor put me on Allopurinol as he said since I have had a gout attack (one time) it should test below 6 to avoid future attacks. He told me that sometimes the medication is the only thing that can keep this to below 6 due to genetic disposition. I wanted to get your thoughts on how to reduce this naturally and/or ID what is causing this. What would you do if you were faced with this situation? I don't want to be on this medication for the rest of my life and I figured there had to be something naturally I could do or at least try. Thanks! Trevor: Dr Cabral sir, My name is Trevor and I am one of your IHP students currently healing my body. I was just told I need to put in a lift in my shoe due to hip displacement and believed to be the length of my legs. I did fracture my growth plate in my ankle when I was 17, and I am now 32. Is there anyway for my body to heal back to normal and not need the lift? Thank you very much Sage: Hi doctor Cabral, I am very health conscious and try to eat clean and organic food most of the time. To my horror, I discovered that the supplement that I've been using for a few months contained Titanium Dioxide, which is apparently unsafe and can cause cancer. Do you know if this is correct? It's said to be accumulating in the body tissues and I really want to get it out of my body ASAP. What would be the best way to do this? Thanks so much for your help! Love your podcast, keep up the amazing work! Sage Molly: Hi doctor Cabral, I have an important question for you: I have been a vegan for about 10 years now, and I'll be honest - I'm doing it more for health benefits, rather than the ethical/environmental ones. Lately, I've been thinking about maybe adding fish and or eggs tp my diet, in order to boost the omega 3', choline, B12 protein and other nutrients naturally, rather than using the supplements. It's really difficult to make this decision though, as being vegan has become a bit of an identity for me and I've built a business and some great relationships because of it. I'm afraid of losing that if I'm no longer considered "vegan". In your professional opinion, what would you advise? Staying fully vegan or adding eggs/fish once a week. I know it's a difficult question, but my health is very important to me and there are few people I trust more than you when it comes to the health advice. I can't wait to hear your thoughts and I'm grateful for you and all you do!

None of us are getting any younger (chronologically), but did you know that if you can decrease oxidative stress (free radicals) you can actually grow younger biologically? In order to do this, you must assess what are the major triggers in your life for free radical damage and then begin to mitigate their effects or remove them from your life to varying degrees… On today's #CabralConcept 2203 I will share with you the 7 signs of oxidative stress and rapid aging and what you can do to combat them - Enjoy the show and let me know what you thought in the comments! - - - Show Notes & Resources: http://StephenCabral.com/2203 - - - 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)

With so much controversy as of late, I wanted to share with you some simple ways to begin to detox heavy metals from your body… This is extremely important because it's unlikely a day goes by that you are not exposed to some degree of heavy metals (which are toxic) and your body must eradicate them… The nice thing is that nature has given us plenty of foods and natural means to keep up even with the most challenging of environments… For all the details on how to detox heavy metals naturally tune into today's #CabralConcept 2202 - Enjoy the show and let me know if you have any questions! - - - Show Notes & Resources: http://StephenCabral.com/2202 - - - 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)

If you've been struggling with low energy, brain fog, and low mood I'd like to share with you an alternative way of thinking about how to increase your energy that does not have anything to do with diet, quality nutritional supplements, or exercise… On today's show, I want to delve deeper into how our own internal neurotransmitters and endorphins can provide us with abundant energy from the moment we wake until we go to bed.

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… Let's get started! Nycole: Hi Dr Cabral, I love the podcast and your positive energy, thank you for all your work!I have spots on my skin called CARP, confluent and reticulated papillomatosis. I have had them for 3 years, wondering where it comes from and what to do about it. I eat a mostly paleo diet and recently strictly gluten free due to celiac. Thanks! Rebecca: I'm looking for information on an elevated secretory IGa, my results were >6000 Anti-Gliiadin IgA was >500 Occult blood 77 I had a gi map test completed by a different company and I don't feel like they understood the results. I'm concerned about celiac and will start removing gluten from my diet. And get a FOBT from PCP. Just looking for more insight on the elevated IgAs Thank You so very much, I have spent a small fortune and don't feel like I got the best support or answers to my labs. The health coach said she had never seen such high IgA,s before As well I'm enrolled in the IHP 1&2 program, just signed up 2 weeks ago. Maria: Hi Dr. Cabral! I have a question in regards to vitamin D levels. I have had my levels tested 4 times over the last 9 months. I can't get my levels to budge from 30-35. I was supplementing with 5000 IU of the EquiLife drops and then bumped up to 10000 IU two months before my last test, but to no avail. I have listened to your podcast on the cofactors for vitamin D absorption many times. I use the DNS powder daily, so I'm getting all the other vitamins and minerals you mention in that podcast that are required for absorption. I had been taking my vitamin D at breakfast with my morning smoothie which contains 1-2 tablespoons of seeds. I just started taking it at lunch time instead and also started supplementing with additional K2 (MK7) at that time as well. I live in the Midwest, so sunlight vitamin D is really only possible from June-September. Not sure what else I can do to get my levels up. I am on month 1 of the CBO finisher, after completion of CBO protocol. I'm sure poor gut absorption has had something to do with it? Any other advice on how to get my levels up or why my levels haven't budged at all?! Do you have a favorite vitamin D light that you recommend? Karen: Dear Dr. Cabral, Thank you for your podcast and the easy way you get the information out about having good health. I am 62 and in the best health of my life thanks to many changes I have made. 10 years ago, I switched to a gluten free diet, the change it made in how I felt was amazing. Since then, I have been devouring books on health, and continuing to modify my diet and exercise. I am now dairy free, (a recent change) and eat very little sugar products. At 62 I am back to the weight I was when I graduated from high school! My question for you is about a condition I have on my lower lip, it has been there for about 25 years in varying degrees, and is called Actinic Cheilitis. It is a continual sloughing of skin cells on my lower lip, sometimes it is mildly painful, and is worse in the winter months. My dermatologist gave me a cream to treat it, a strong pharmaceutical that actually works by destroying the skin. I went through 1 round of this and couldn't tolerate the cream. The pain and ugliness on my lip was awful and I experienced body aches, headaches and couldn't sleep, a condition that is a rare side effect of this cream. As this is considered a pre-cancerous condition, I need to do something. I appreciate any suggestions you have. Dawn: I started the 7 day detox and after the 3rd shake, I felt nauseous? Is this normal? Should I continue on? Bettina: Hi Stephen thank you for your podcast, i only recently started listening to you. I got your rRain Barrel book and the 14 day detox. would love to have the tests done however with the $ exchange and taxes it get really expensive. can you suggest any labs in Brisbane or Gold Coast that you would recommend. looking forward to hearing from you. sincerely Bettina Thank you for tuning into this weekend's Cabral HouseCalls and be sure to check back tomorrow for our Mindset & Motivation Monday show to get your week started off right! - - - Show Notes & Resources: http://StephenCabral.com/2200 - - - 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)
