1444: Boils, ASMR, Local Candida Infections, Clean Out Diverticula, Strep Acne, OCD Imbalances (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… Let's get started! Jean: hello, can you please talk to us about boils. my son has had boils all over his body but mostly on his buttock for the last 3 years (off and on) is there anything in Functional Medicine, Ayurvedic or naturopathy to stop them from happening. background 16 year old, male, fit, strong, enjoys life but has everyday stresses of school, diet is 80% organic diet mostly 60% vegetarian 10% organic meat but does have a high dose of 30% junk food (chips, soft drink, dairy, fried food, white bread). sleeps 8 hours a night. thanks for your time Jean. Mina: What are your thoughts on ASMR as a means to switch on the parasympathetic nervous system? I've received tingling sensations in my scalp by watching ASMR videos and I'm fascinated as to why this happens. Any idea? Check out a ASMR soap-carving or tapping video. *mindblown* Mimi: Dear Dr. Cabral, I'm curious about the length of time for healing after the CBO protocol. I had candida/bacterial overgrowth on the OAT test, no parasites on the stool test, and mild sensitivities on the IGG test. I'm almost done with the CBO protocol + citricidal and have followed it with the sensitive gut/elimination diet very strictly. I'm still following the elimination diet just to be safe. My gut feels good, but I had 3 symptoms when I started that I thought were related to the gut overgrowth, and they persist daily: (1) itchy eczema on my ears (2) anal itching and (3) a white tongue (not a coating, just more white than pink). Based on the HTMA + omega-3 test, I'm also supplementing with all EN products to rebalance mineral deficiencies and omega-3. I was hoping these 3 symptoms would have started to subside as I'm almost done with the CBO, but they haven't eased, so my question is, do you see these kinds of symptoms go away during the protocol, or more after the 3 months of heal + seal? Thank you for everything you do - you have saved my health and my life and I am eternally grateful for you! Manny: Hello Dr. Cabral! I love your podcast and all that you do. I'm a 52 year old male and have had diverticulosis with diverticulitis for the last 5 years. I listened to episode 827 and have ordered the 3 gut tests (OAT, IGG, stool). In that episode you mentioned an "autoimmune/paleo" diet but didn't go into specifics. I understand that when I get the tests back, I will likely go on the CBO protocol with the sensitive gut guide - is this guide the same as the "autoimmune/paleo" diet you mentioned? If so, should I go ahead and start the sensitive gut guide while I wait for the tests? And one more part to my question - in your experience, do the pockets of diverticula actually heal or will they always be there? Thank you, with the deepest gratitude and appreciation for you!! Lauren: Hi Dr Cabral, do you have a protocol for strep/acne.... thanks Cole: Hi Dr. Cabral!! I love your podcasts & books, my question is regarding OCD. I have had it since I was in high school, maybe around 14 or 15 years old. I am now 23. It's not the kind of OCD where I need everything to be straight or clean (though I do like being clean) but rather I have to always "check" everything so that I'm not missing anything. Whenever I leave my house I HAVE to go over a "checklist" in my head of some things I might need or be missing. I've noticed it has to do more with my own possessions, for example, I only start doing these lists once I have stayed in an apartment for a few months. If I don't do this I will continue to go through each room in my head when I'm out with my friends, etc. It makes me feel "complete" when I do this, if I don't do it, I feel off. It has definitely taken up a lot of time in my life and often times I have to re-go over what I may be missing because I can't focus on the list in my head. I was wondering what advice you can give me for this, or even lab tests that would be best for me. I am generally a healthy individual. I don't take any meds, exercise regularly, eat a plant based diet, don't get sick often, Use natural based products, occasionally meditate in the sauna, etc. It's extremely embarrassing for me, the only person who - somewhat- knows is my boyfriend who has to sometimes wait while I go over my checklist in my head before we head out the door.

1443: Pesticide Exposure, Migraine Triggers, Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, Mucus in Stool, Cataracts, Sugar vs. Fat (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: Olga: Chronic hayfever and long standing exposure to pesticides, DDT, welding fumes etc. what is the connection and how to normalise the immune system response? Would detox be appropriate? Thanks! Olga Daniel: First off, thank you for your service. You have made huge and positive impact in many lives and I continue to additionally spread your name and messages around. You give us all hope, which we do not get in the medical community. I am a 44 year old white male. I have been struggling with daily migraines the last 10 years (pain scale 7-10). Anything I tried as a preventative only made things worse, besides Propanolol. I take 120mg once per day. BP 115/77. Any and all things triggered or caused the migraine to increase in intensity. As you did, I performed a lot of research on my own and learned ways to manage and heal myself based on food/product eliminations. I worked the last two years with a local ND, but your history and experience brings it to a whole other level of knowledge. My testosterone levels were always under 300, so I thought I would try TRT therapy. Out of all things, that just about eliminated my migraines and allowed me to have the ability to take supplements without triggering a migraine. Gradually, I will work to get off TRT, which I have only been on for 18 weeks (1 injection every 3 weeks - 300mg of Testosterone Cypionate). I switched to your practice (under J. Hayes), I now know how deficient I was in vitamins, minerals, and how my body wasn't absorbing much of anything. She put me on a good path. My question to you is, two years ago I went for an abdominal ultrasound due to stomach pain (ended up being gastritis) and 2 - 1x1cm 'hepatic' cysts on my liver were found and a 1- 3mm polyp in my gallbladder (no issues with gallbladder). I usually go for scans every 6 months. Last one (before starting your regimen) on 9/16/2019 now shows they are 2cm on my liver and a 3rd found (left, caudate lobe, right lobe), and polyp (gallbladder) is now 4mm, and now also 1cm cyst was found on my left kidney. If you wouldn't mind explaining how these cysts form, steps to take, etc. Both, Serrapeptase and Nattokinase trigger a migraine for me within an hour. I know both can work miracles, if I could only handle it. MD do not seem concerned, but then again, they do not care much about our health (in my opinion). It will be interesting to see how things go on my next scan, now that fulfilling these deficiencies.For your Notes: (Julia/You have me on the following)Nutritional Supplements:Daily nutritional support shake: Start with ¼ scoop and increase as able with a goal of 2 scoops daily (on-going)GI balance:take 1 with each meal for 2 weeks and try to increase to 2 if able (complete 2 bottles)Daily digestive: 1 with each whole food meal (on- going)Liquid Vitamin D: 6 drops at breakfast (on-going)Omega 3 support: 1 with lunch1 with dinner (on-going)Full Spectrum Magnesium: 1 with lunch 2 with dinner (use for at least 3 months then reassess)Adrenal Soothe: 1-2 with lunch 1-2 with dinner (use for at least 3 months then reassess)Alkalizing Vitamin C: Start with ¼ of a scoop in the morning with the goal of a full scoop (for 3 months then reassess)Zinc Piccolinate: 1 at dinner (use for at least 3 months then reassess)*Iron Response Complete: 1-2 30 min before breakfast pending iron blood test. You are a true blessing to all of us! Daniel Patty: Dr. Cabral, I am a huge fan of your podcast. With all the podcasts I've listened to, I've never heard you talk about Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. I'm wondering if you have treated anyone with this condition and if so, what you used and how much? My daughter has this condition, along with POTS, Mast Cell Activation Disorder and Celiac Disease. She tries to eat pretty clean and has been gluten-free for a year now. I'm looking forward to your thoughts on this! Katie: Hi Dr. Cabral! I'm wondering what the reasons for seeing mucus in your stool might be. For years I've dealt with it on and off - I always just chalked it up to allergies and/or IBS. I've done all the gut testing and have done the CBO protocol, heal & seal, mold protocol, and am now on an abridged CBO that my integrative health practitioner put me on - all that to say, I'm doing the gut work! But I do still occasionally see those mucus-y stools. Any insight on why that might be, and what causes them? Tara: I am a 56 yr old female no major health issues all my life and just now diagnosed with cataracts I've never been dependent on eye glasses a have some that I would were for seeing at the movies, theater or driving unfamiliar places at night and just started wearing readers a couple years ago however since the cataracts I really don't need readers I've read that cold pressed haxane free castor can help /reverse cataracts but I'm hesitant to try ( I don't want to cause more damage ) I'm currently on day 6 of detox I'm searching for a solution other than IOL /surgery I'd like to know if trying castor oil drops is ok or any other recommendations James: Hi Doc, I once heard somebody talk about how unhealthy fats like the various vegetable oils, canola oils etc. were the WORST thing for your body as you can't utilise them at all. Before this i was always under the impression that sugar was the WORST thing for your body, but apparently we can at least use utilise that. I guess this is a bit of a subjective question as it depends on your specific health deficiencies and imbalances when determining what is the WORST food/product for you. But if you was to say on a whole what the worse thing is, or the worst 3 things are, for the MAJORITY of humans - what would they be? IF you cant answer this question because it's too "person-specific" then can you answer me this question - Added sugar vs. Unhealthy oils - what is worse for you and why? Even if you do answer the first, could you also answer the second, I'm quite interested in the Sugar vs. Oils debate.

1440: Burn Fat as Fuel While You Sleep (Factor 5) (WW)
It's not talked about often, but one of the forgotten factors of people that stay naturally lean is that they're able to tap into fat as a fuel source while they sleep... The reason this is important is that if you stop eating a few hours before bed and then you're in bed for 7-9 hours, you have 10-12+ hours where your glucose levels should be normalized and fat should be the primary fuel... However, in people with dysfunctional metabolisms glucose stays elevated due to cortisol, poor sleep patterns, and other "overnight imbalances," which then, in turn, leads to stubborn weight gain....

1439: 3 Forgotten Fasting Truths from Ayurvedic Medicine (TWT)
Long before there was ever all any hype around Intermittent Fasting, Ayurvedic Medicine had already written the book on it... And that's a really important point to make since they've had over 5,000 years of testing to perfect the art & science of fasting... By now we all should know that we need to incorporate some type of intermittent fasting into our day, but the questions as to how long, what hours of the day, and for who largely remain unanswered... Today, I'd like to share those answers on the 3 forgotten fasting truths from Ayurvedic Medicine and how to incorporate them into your daily life - Enjoy the show! - - - Show Notes & Resources: http://StephenCabral.com/1439 - - - 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 Supplements: > "The Dr. Cabral Daily Protocol" (This is what Dr. Cabral does every day!) - - - > Dr. Cabral Detox (The fastest way to get well, lose weight, and feel great!) - - - > Daily Nutritional Support Shake (#1 "All-in-One recommendation in my practice) - - - > Daily Fruit & Vegetables Blend (22 organic fruit & vegetables "greens powder") - - - > CBD Oil (Full-spectrum, 3rd part-tested & organically grown) - - - > Candida/Bacterial Overgrowth, Leaky Gut, Parasite & Speciality Supplement Packages - - - > See All Supplements: https://equilibriumnutrition.com/collections/supplements - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Organic Acids Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Thyroid + Adrenal + Hormone Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Adrenal + Hormone Test (Run your adrenal & hormone levels) - - - > Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Omega-3 Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels)

1438: Use the Tim Ferris Fear Setting Formula to Eliminate Worry & Anxiety (MM)
One of the quotes that woke me up the most in life was this: "We often suffer more in imagination than we do in reality." When I stopped to think about this I realized I'm the one that typically makes a bigger deal out of a situation in my mind than it actually was in life itself... This is why using a "fear setting formula" like the one Tim Ferris spoke about at his TedX Talk can be really powerful... And on today's #CabralConcept 1438 I'd like to take you through this exact formula on how you can eliminate worry and anxiety around decision making - Enjoy the show! - - - Show Notes & Resources: http://StephenCabral.com/1438 - - - 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 Supplements: > "The Dr. Cabral Daily Protocol" (This is what Dr. Cabral does every day!) - - - > Dr. Cabral Detox (The fastest way to get well, lose weight, and feel great!) - - - > Daily Nutritional Support Shake (#1 "All-in-One recommendation in my practice) - - - > Daily Fruit & Vegetables Blend (22 organic fruit & vegetables "greens powder") - - - > CBD Oil (Full-spectrum, 3rd part-tested & organically grown) - - - > Candida/Bacterial Overgrowth, Leaky Gut, Parasite & Speciality Supplement Packages - - - > See All Supplements: https://equilibriumnutrition.com/collections/supplements - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Organic Acids Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Thyroid + Adrenal + Hormone Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Adrenal + Hormone Test (Run your adrenal & hormone levels) - - - > Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Omega-3 Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels)

1437: Shoulder Blade Pain, Caffeine Metabolism, Community Recommendations, Weaker Tolerance, Mouth Breathing, Echinacea Cycling (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… Let's get started! Lisa: Hi Dr. Cabral, I'm a long time listener for the last 3 years and I'm always sharing your podcasts to help others. I truly appreciate how you do daily podcasts because it helps keep me motivated on my way into work each morning.VERY BRIEF history: Kapha body type/ Struggle BIG TIME to lose any weight Done 2 of your 14 day detoxes completed the CBO protocol I'm 100% plantbased and do not cheat because I need to lose 40 lbs. and I know my body is still not healthy, but I do hope one day I can have a cheat meal. I have done most all labs through you. Adrenals and thyroid look good, but I still take your thyroid supplement. A little Estrogen Dominance and I do take your DIM. HTMA did show high aluminum. I'm ordering your heavy metal protocol today. The 2 labs left for me to take is the Toxicity lab and the Mold Toxicity lab. Both of my kids did your mold toxicity lab and both came back high for molds. We are starting them on your protocol over Christmas break. I have a infrared sauna and do 40 mins a day/5 days a week. I do not exercise enough, but do enjoy hot yoga twice a week. Honestly, I am feeling much better than I ever have in the past, even though I still know I have to have more toxicity because I can't lose weight. Besides the struggle to lose weight, I have severe shoulder blade pains. My Biomedical doctor put me on LDN and other anti-inflammatory supplements, but the pain is still there. I have eliminated every type of food that can cause inflammation: lectins, high oxalates, nightshades, and all the other foods. Question: When I do a 14 hour fast, the pain is much worse. Do you have idea as to why fasting makes my pain worse? Should I just stick with a 12 hour fast even though I'm the kapha body type? I already take your full spectrum magnesium and MANY other supplements from equilibrium.Thank you so much! Lisa Noel: Hi Dr. Cabral,In recent years I don't feel any effects of caffeine. I can drink a lot or a little or none, and I don't notice any effects. Currently I enjoy a cup of coffee and a cup of green tea a day. I'm curious about why I don't feel the effects of caffeine. Could it be I'm a fast metabolizer? Or could it possibly be a a clue related to other symptoms related to my current health? In 2015 I was diagnosed with CIRS (AKA Alzheimer's Type 3 according to Dr. Dale Bredesen). I turned around many of my inflammatory markers and symptoms with diet and lifestyle and mold avoidance. I'm curious b/c I heard you mention this low or no reaction to caffeine in one of your Alzheimer's podcasts. I have a few remaining symptoms, and I'm hoping your trainings and protocols can help me clear them all up. I'm so energized and uplifted by all that you do and share. Thank you for helping "tough nut, odd duck" cases like me!!! (Currently in week 2 of 21 Day Detox and eagerly awaiting 3 test results - OAT, Stool & HTMA - and coaching call) Lissette: When can we start a Dr Cabral Healthy mind, body ,soul book reviews. Is would allow us to share knowledge of the different cookbooks with healthy recipes, scientific investigations that are done around food , medicines etc. Also when will you organize a retreat ,convention etc to meet just ideas Thank you Jessi: Hello! Love love your show. My husband and I were wondering that ever since we have been more concious eaters and cut out gluten/dairy etc, we are more "sensitive". Like even if we cheat a little, we blow up w gas, acne, get an array of bad side effects. Meanwhile our friends/siblings who are no where near as healthy in terms of what they eat, can seem to eat whatever they want! They are also a bit overweight but seem to have no sensitivies. Is there a correlation? Do you get more sensitive as you clean out your body? Is it that once you are more "clean" you feel the bad food more than before when you may have built up a resistance to it? It almost doesn't seem fair that us "healthy eaters" are the sensitive ones and the overweight and unhealthy friends say " seeee look at you, what is the point you are eating healthy and not your body can't handel anything" ----- frustrating...... Please clarify. Thank you! Anthony: What are your thoughts Dr. Cabral on mouth breathing and health advocates who say to use tape over their mouths while you sleep?"Breathing through our mouth versus our nose can contribute to poor sleep, dry mouth, high blood pressure, migraines and more. When we breathe through our nose, we're able to activate our parasympathetic nervous system. This means we're more calm, relaxed, and ready for bed." Jay: Hello,My daughter and I both have celiac disease,my daughter is 5 and when she starts to get sick I've always given her Echinacea for the first 3 days,The herb causes immune stimulating effects,I've always seen results in her recovery when I give her Echinacea. Should I stop giving it to her,will it cause long term problems?Do you recommend anything else as a alternative.

1436: Sjogren's Syndrome, Children's Protocols, Inclusion-Body Myositis, Mammogram Safety, DEXA Scan (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: Annette: Hello. I was recently told I have Sjogren's syndrome. I have low iron as well which is being treated by a hemotologist. I was told I have to start, and have for one day so far, meds. Plaquenil. I really would rather not do that, or at least only 1 pill per day instead of 2 because the rear side effect is retana / eye issues. I have not found a good site to explain in detail the foods I should be eating, they just say root vegetables, etc. I have found a couple of receipes, but you know of more, of a food plan I would appreciate it. Nicole: Hi There, Do you work with children, my son who is nearly 5 has major gut issues, SIBO I suspect from many antibiotics when he was a baby. He is getting fussier, and fussier and will barely eat anything. Im at a loss how to help him now. Do you have a program for kids that does not involve tablets.ThanksNicole Jennifer: My father was just diagnosed with IBM-Inclusion Body myositis. His muscles are already beginning to atrophy, he has lost grip in his hands and cannot use utensils or open doors, he has trouble swallowing, and has begun falling. His doctor simply told him to exercise and that was the only course of treatment. I am petrified by the progression of this disease and the toll it is taking on my father who I love greatly. I would appreciate any direction you could give me to assist him. Thank you! Genia: Hi Dr. Cabral. I'm a student of IHP and you are very much a part of my day with my IHP studies, videos of you teaching and podcasts. Thank you for being the master teacher that I highly respect and can relate to. You are a blessing to the world. I am so grateful to be your student. I had some health hiccups and doing my diligence with healing and feeling awesome. Because I have the brace gene and had a malignant cyst on my left ovary I am guided to screen always although I do not go for mammograms. I don't want to express a gene with extra radiation. I do ultra sounds, thermographs and MRIs, and lots of holistic self care. Please explain your views on mammograms for breast screening. With gratitude and love, Genia Daira: Hello Dr. Cabral,First and foremost, thank you for all that you do. Your podcast is my favorite and always my #1 listen at the beginning of the day. I am wondering how do you feel about the accuracy and importance of DEXA scans in terms of tracking body composition. I'm finding the lean mass fluctuations on a weekly basis, which I believe is primarily water weight. Correct me if I'm wrong. I'm trying to lose body fat (total 10lb) and while I'm eating healthy and working out 6 times a week I'm finding the body fat going up and lean mass going down. Should I stick with DEXA scans or really just pay attention on how I feel and look. Thanks!
