1486: Oligodendroglioma, Healthy Gut, Hot Bath Before Bed, Shake After Sauna, Genital Worts, Prostate Cancer, Coughing Up Phlegm, Chickpea Pasta (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! Jamie: One of my Team has been diagnosed with a Mass Lesion in the Left Occipito-Temporal Area of my brain - a Oligodendroglioma - Grade 2. Having seen specialists in the field he has been advised that removal would be too dangerous/complex given its depth. It has now been 6 months and seems to be growing very slowly. It causing him to have daily partial seizires (black dot flickering in the eye) and the occasional Complex-partial seizure (eyes glaze over and lips smacking 30 seconds -90 seconds) and very rare General Tonic-Clonic Seizure. He is only 30 years old, generally very fit and healthy and has just had a baby boy so has a amazing time ahead of him now. Is there anything you would recommend that might help reduce the size of the tumour as i fear one day it may just grow and push on the wrong part of the brain... If you have any advice it would be greatly appreciated as an operation at the moment with modern accepted tech is too risky to consider.thank you so much for all your time and help. Jamie: Is it ok to have the healthy gut support each morning as part of my morning routine? I love the taste and need water first thing so it is a really nice wake up drink as i make the morning smoothie… I have run the big 5 and had a good coaching call but forgot to ask. Completed the CBO protocol last year too so all is pretty good at moment as well as continuing a quarterly detox. Thank you again for all your help. Jamie: When do you recommend taking a hot shower and when a cold shower? So many people swear by dunking themselves into a very cold bath in the morning to put a spring in their step - is this ok or is it too shocking to the system? Your thoughts on when cold vs hot showers / baths in general much appreciated. Thank you again for everything you do. Simon: Hi again Dr Cabral! I am interested in sauna use for autophagy/general health benefits and muscle recovery after weight training and am wondering if you could provide some more detailed advice. I currently do weight training, followed by a post-workout shake right before hitting the sauna (20-25min @ 75*c). I have heard some people say that you should avoid antioxidants after a sauna or even after exercise as they reduce the 'good stressors' on the body. Can you advise:a) should I include antioxidants in my post-workout shake;b) if I should have my shake between weights and sauna or at the end of the sauna;c) Are there any other supplements II should take to enhance the effects of the sauna (Note: I also consume lots of water with electrolytes in the sauna); andd) is stretching in the sauna a good idea?I am Vata-Pita in generally good health (asside from IBS which I'm working on) looking to optimise my health and longevity. Thanks so much! Kevin: Hi Doctor Cabral,I've been a huge fan of your show for almost 2 years now. I have purchased your book and learned a lot from it. I'm sending your this message hoping that you could guide me. My girlfriend was diagnosed 2 years ago with the human papillomavirus (HPV). She got treated for the second time by her conventional medecine doctor who removed the genital warts. She just received an email mentioning that the treatment didn't work and the virus is still present. She was told that she has to wait another 6 months to get a new test.We are considering having kids in a near future but when the question was asked to her doctor, he simply said that we it wouldn't be a good idea without providing any further explanation.Is there anything she can do to get rid of the virus?Does the HPV affect pregnancy?Am I at risk as well ?Any help/recommendation would be much appreciated.Thank you very much for your work. Shane: Hi Dr. Cabral, I had prostate cancer 7 years ago and had radical prostatectomy to remove my prostate. A little over a year ago, my PSA numbers started to rise. I have been seeing a naturopath doctor to get my PSA and candida under control, but both have continued to get worse. I am now on your CBO protocol (first week). I don't feel like returning to my current naturopath. My question is what would you suggest I do? I have been on a lot of supplements like Apricot seeds and Essiac tea, other teas, as well as many other supplements. I am on a strictly vegetarian diet, no dairy, no eggs. I have been using your daily foundation too. My numbers were holding stable but now they are doubling. Can you help? Thank you Dar: Feel great thanks for all you do. Take supplements as well, but over the last couple of months had been coughing up phlegm on and off without any other symptoms don't have dairy, much sugar or wheat. Gracias. Not eating anything unusual or that I'm allergic too either. Darcy: Are wondernoodles(gluten free) or chickpea based pasta okay to eat what are your thoughts?

1485: Stomach Pain, Permanent Retainer, Firm Skin, Healthier Candy Option, Asparagus & Cancer, Dairy Allergies (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: James: Hi,I'm currently dealing with stomach pains, loose stool, unable to lose weight (not overweight but trying to drop a couple pounds). If taken a stool test through Genova Labs and got the data showing a bunch of different imbalances and potential issues.Is there anyway you could analyze that data and give direction? Currently frustrated with my progress and not feeling good.Thank you, James Michelle: I have a question that I can not seem to find any information on. I have a permanent retainer that needs to has a broken bracket. I have 3 choices 1. remove 2. have another permanent put in place or 3. invisalign retainer that I would wear at night. I would like to keep my teeth in place therefore considering option 2 and 3. What direction hve you given patients on this? Jenny: Hi Dr. Cabral,Thank you so much for all that you do for your clients and the community. I started following your podcasts last April, read your book, and did my first detox in June. Fast forward to today, I have never missed a podcast, am down 30+ lbs and lowered my cholesterol by 85 points. I feel terrific, have tons of energy and my life has changed so much for the better, all thanks to you. I will forever be one of your biggest cheerleaders and continue to brag about you!!I use the DNS powder in my daily smoothie and follow some of your favorite recipes and have rarely gone a day without one in more than 6 months. I have been adding a scoop of the Advanced Collagen Support for the past couple of months. The other day I came across an ad for Beverly Hills MD. I know you don't discredit other companies' products, but do you know anything about this one or the ingredients it contains? It claims to "help smooth, tighten, and firm skin from the inside out." In addition to containing collagen, it states it contains Saw Palmetto and Hyaluronic Acid. Do you know what those are and what they do? I'm hesitant to try products from the internet and at this point I mainly only trust you and the Equilibrium Nutrition products. I'm just a little curious about these.Thank you,Jenny Les: Hello Dr. Stephan Cabral, I had a question regarding type 1 diabetes. My boyfriend has type 1 diabetes and every time his blow sugar is low he will reach for cookies or candy. I know that there must be a healthier option to help him. I've searched online and found that many recommend soda which is definitely something I don't consider healthy.Hoping you can help with suggesting healthier options.Thank you so much! Huge fan and truly appreciate what you do! Jamie: What is the truth about asparagus and it being a catalyst for transporting cancerous cells or free radicals around the body? I presume if someone has been diagnosed with Cancer of any sort they should not eat Asparagus if this is true. What is your understanding and clarification much appreciated! thank you so so much for all you do, I have almost finished listening to the entire back catalogue of podcasts about 100 to go! Really appreciate your work and thank you again for helping change my life and approach to health - i am in turn trying to pay forward the limited knowledge i now have too. thank you. Jamie: Thank you again for everything you do an dall the hard work your team puts in . Apologies as i know this question has come up indifferent guises before but i couldn't really find an all encompassing answer. We have a 6 month old daughter and she has had a skin alergy test which came up negative for everything (good news). Having listened to the podcsat for some time i hear you on the dairy and having cut out dairy from my diet i now feel a million times better. When i do now eat dairy i can feel a reaction but i can live with it and occasionally for a cheat meal its worth the trade off.My question is should we really be stopping our daughter from having any dairy even so young because surely it must have some benefits otherwise why have humans used it for so long? If we switch her to all non dairy product so young is she likely to have worse reactions when she is older? Also so many say the calcium content is not as high in the diary alternatives and the side of the packs (crude level i compared dairy milk to the nut milks) and this seems to corroborate this observation - can you shed light on what does provide enough calcium for children from birth up to adulthood and how you have treated dairy or dairy alternatives for your children from birth until now?thank you again so much.

1479: Canola Oil & Margarine, Cracking Joints, Gelatin in Supplements, Turmeric vs. Curcumin, Infrared Sauna Blanket, Tuberculosis, Starchy Dinner (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! Haven: Hi Dr. Cabral, I've been a long time listener and have successfully shared much of what you have taught me to many of my friends and family. Last year, my 50 year old mom, who has struggled with her weight for most of her adult life, became a listener as well. She successfully completed the CBO protocol and did a handful of 14-day Doctor Cabral Detoxes. She could feel that it was helping, but didn't manage to lose more than 5lbs. This year, she is now on a weight loss program, called Optivia, where you eat 5 "fuelings" a day and one "lean and green" meal a day. I am very proud of her accomplishments, but worry about the long term health effects. The diet's "fuelings" are all highly processed foods and the nutritional label lists many unidentifiable chemicals. Plus many of the "lean and green" recipes include processed meats, dairy and gluten and classify canola oil and margarine as "healthy fats". I'm having a hard time finding the words to explain to her the damage she could potentially be causing her body, and wondered if you had any words of wisdom I could borrow? Many thanks! Joanna: Hi Dr Cabral My question is i tend to get a cracking noise likea bubbly noise in between my joints mainly knees when i exercise? Do you know what may cause this?Is it a matter of building my strength and training up. I have only started training up again in the last month, prior to that i had a few months off and was just walking mainly. I take your dns and collagen everyday Kind regards Joanna :) Les: Hi Dr. Stephan Cabral,I had a question about the type of gelatin you use in your products. Due to my religion, I do not consume pork and I noticed that your omega 3 contains gelatin. Thank you! Ryan: What are your thoughts on the benefits of turmeric vs. curcumin supplementation? I've read curcumin has troubles with bio-availability and that combining with black pepper, and/or certain water soluble or fat soluble forms, plus antioxidants can help... but the jury still seems to be out. How much have you experimented with different forms clinically and what's your experience? Do different forms work better for different things? Particularly interested in blood sugar benefits. Any new research you're aware of regarding turmeric/curcumin? Cheers. Grace: Hi Dr.Cabral, I have a question for you about a product I am considering buying. I asked this question in the support group page, and others also were interested in hearing your opinion. You have spoken about the benefits of infrared saunas before, but I am curious if you have seen or heard about the infrared sauna 'blankets'? I am interested because they are much more cost effective and more portable than traditional saunas. The brand I am personally looking into is called Higher Dose. Do you know if these sauna blankets produce the same level of benefits to regular infrared saunas?On a similar note, I am a yoga teacher where I both practice and teach in a heated room, and I sweat A LOT. I am curious if this also produces the same benefit as an infared sauna session? Is it worth using an infared sauna if I regularly sweat in a heated room? Thanks in advance for your insight, and thank you for everything you do. Your work has significantly impacted my life and health! DB: What are the natural remedies for turberculosis. Can you cure it without the use of powerful medications. Dar: Lately I have been loving this black bean, yam, and spinach wrap for dinner with a little garlic caesar dressing from costco, however my wife mentioned that is probably too heavy on the starch, what do you think and what would you use instead of the beans if that's the case? How does too much starch affect digestion I have heard it is not good.

1478: Chronic Pain in Hips, Dry Lips, PAN/PANDAS, Foot Cramps, Urine Test Strips, IF & Hypothyroidism (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: Sue: Hi Dr Cabral, I'm wondering if you can help me. I'm 62 and have chronic pain in my hips and down my thighs. I'm also now getting spasms down my right thigh. I find it hard to walk especially after sitting down. I'm cleaning in a resort which takes it's toll also. I'm foam rolling and taking zinc and vitamin c, magnesium mixed with B vitamins, iodine, Vitamin D liguid and B12. Nothing seems to be helping. I have developed thin crepey skin hich tears easily and big red blotches appear when I knock myself. I have a oval type circle which looks like a bruise and is itchy which I've had for years and fungus in two of my nails. I also get corns on the bottom of my feet occassionally which my podiatrist said comes with the skin getting thin around the bone with aging. My osteopath recommends I get the Mora technique done. do you know this therapy? And is it any good. I would like to have tests done with you but can only afford one thing at a time. Hope you can help. You are absolutely amazing with your knowledge and thank you for sharing with the world Regards Sue Sue: Hi Stephen it's Sue again. Referring to my other email about my chronic hip pain. I also have a very raspy tongue and dry lips but plenty of saliva. My naturopath thinks it's low thyroid hence why I'm on iodine but it's not helping Thanks again Canna: Dr.Cabral, There's nothing worse than watching your child suffer.My kid has PANS/PANDAS... he's 100% fine when he's not sick... and that seem to happen only when he's not at school. He's on your CBO protocol for children from few months now. He still catches infections from other people very easily and flares up! We are fighting this monster from 9 months! Please give me hope that he will get better! I will do anything in this world to cure him! Please help us! Vancity: I feel pretty healthy no issues on the blood tests. Diet is good and exercise. For some reason in the winter cold at night especially I have been experiencing the worst foot cramps to the point I woke up shouting in pain a few times. It happened in previous years but not as much or as harsh as this year. Can you please give me any tips. I try to keep my socks on during the winters but they still cramp up even when slightly cold I guess. I take a good multi and magnesium since I've read a magnesium deficiency can cause this issue. Thanks. Aaron: have been getting ads for Bloom test strips. It's a urinalysis test that you scan with an app on your phone. It tests for several specific markers including some heavy metals and cortisol. I hope to be able to afford your tests at some point, which look more comprehensive and get professionally analyzed. In the mean time, would you be able to review this product and speak to it's reliability? I'm curious if the results correlate to hair tissue mineral analysis and saliva that you test. Emily: I was diagnosed with PCOS about 2 years ago after coming off of birth control for 8 years. I started doing intermittent fasting about 10 months ago when I heard it was great for insulin resistance (although i'm unsure my PCOS is from insulin resistance). I recently had annual blood work done prior to wanting to do a 28 day detox and I was found to be hypothyroid (TSH 5.9, normal T4 and no antibodies). Could this be secondary to IF OR connected to an underlying condition also causing my PCOS? Wondering if both conditions could be tied to adrenal fatigue. Working on my emotional stress with herbals and breathing. Working on my physical stress by eating more nutritious foods and not IF Thank you for tuning into today's Cabral HouseCall and be sure to check back tomorrow where we answer more of our community's questions! - - - Show Notes & Resources: http://StephenCabral.com/1478 - - - Get Your Question Answered: http://StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - 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) - - - > Stool Test (Use this test to uncover any bacterial, h.
