1353: MTHFR Supplements, Detox Symptoms, Goldfish Memory, Sensitive Gut Foods, Blue Blocking Glasses Tint, Osteoporosis Risks (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! Bryana: Hello Dr. Cabral,I wanted to ask about the MTHFR gene. I have 2 copies of the C677T mutation, my husband has two copies of the A1298C mutation and our kids have one copy of each. I know for the C mutation of the gene that we need to supplement with extra b vitamins, methylated folate, extra zinc, magnesium and vitamin C. My question for you is, what "protocol" should I follow for the A gene mutation? Thanks so much for enabling all of us with the power of knowledge! Bryana Kate: Hello. I have recently completed the 7 day detox. I have a question about the unusual symptoms I am now experiencing once completed. During the detox I felt fine, apart from the normal detox reactions - fatigued, headaches, racing heart etc. But towards the very end of the detox and especially on the day after I completed it, I have been experiencing tingling in my hands and feet as well as all over my face. I have stomach cramps as well and extreme anxiety. I feel as though I have adrenaline pumping through my veins. Would I possibly still be experiencing detox symptoms? Is this 'normal' as a reaction to completing the detox? I'm a little confused and I was feeling great but seem to have something else going on in my body/mind etc. thank you for your help. Lucy: Hi Dr. Cabral, I have a question about memory! I have an absolutely terrible memory, short term and long term. There are huge chunks of my life I can't recall and I'm only 30. My best friends will talk about people we knew and hung out with in high school and I can't remember any of them. My college friends nicknamed me "goldfish", and then I forgot why they gave me that nickname. I have to write notes for myself and set multiple reminder alarms just to get through the day...I've done the CBO Protocol twice now and the Dr. Cabral Detox. I'd love to know possible root causes, what tests would be best, or even protocols I can jump into to figure this out. Thanks so much, love the podcast! Jacquelyn: Hi, do you still have the sauna and are at the Berkeley st location? Thank you. Marie: Hi Dr Cabral. I was wondering whether you are familiar with the brand XXXXX and were able recommend their products (which include things like Ormus Gold, Shilajit, cbd etc.). They are quite an investment so I would love to hear your opinion before purchasing. Many thanks !! Be: Hey from South Australia! I wonder, how exactly did you test the foods on the 'sensitive gut guide' to determine, 'yes, this doesn't feed Candida/agitate the gut'. I understand if you don't want to disclose this for business reasons. I listen to your podcast all the time! And it has really contributed to my experience throughout my Nutritional Medicine degree! So thank you! Nikki: Hi All Do blue light blocking glasses have to be tinted? There are so many brands that sell them now, How do you know that are legitimate? Reece: I am 55 years old in great shape, eat well, exercise cardo and weight bearing, follow you, and have read your book. I have been diagnosed with osteoporosis and still can't believe it. What I'd like to ask is - can you speak to this on one of your podcasts? i tried to find a way to search on your podcast page, but didn't see a way to do that. I'd like to know what the root cause is or what can cause this and if I can reverse what I am being told?I did have some tests run and they want me in 6 months to have a Collagan cross-linked N-Teleopeptide test again (NT-x), U it was high at 51 and according to the bone specialist this is high, indicating there is bone loss and possible medication in my future? Which I do not want to do... EVER!Hoping there is something I can do now, to change it, if anything?

1352: Mushrooms & Yeast, Safe Cholesterol Levels, Shortness of Breath, Leaky Gut Symptoms, Hands Itchy, Eggs & Viruses, Inflamed from Workout (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: Karin: Hello Dr Cabral, I listen to your podcasts every day and never stop learning something new. I was diagnosed with candida overgrowth and I really want to know, is there any truth behind the dietary recommendation to avoid the consumption of yeasts and mushrooms (not medicinal)? And if so, why? As a biologist I'm really interested in the mechanism behind it.Thank you so much!Karin. Carolyn: How can I lower my LDL to below 50. Would my liver be producing too much LDL for some reason other than from my diet?? I am 64 year old female diagnosed with coronary heart disease which runs in my family. Father died at age 66 and one brother has had heart bypass surgery. My total cholesterol is 176, HDL 72, Triglycerides 69 and LDL 88. I am on statin 40 mg. for 1.5 years. I have always exercised and still do, 4 days a week. 3 cardio and one strength class per week for 60 minutes each. I eat fresh fruit and vegetables and lowfat yogurt, egg beaters, oats and grains, some dark chocolate and salmon or cod. Occasionally eat shrimp. I take vitamin supplements and also was diagnosed with osteopenia 10 yrs ago and took extra calcium as recommended by doctors for past 10 year which I am afraid contributed to my heart disease. Now I get my calcium from food sources and small amount in multi vitamin. Heart disease was diagnosed with chemical stress test which I requested because of family history as I have no symptoms of heart disease. My calcium score test 10 years ago was zero and now it is 56 - my diet and exercise has been the same other than I am older and started taking calcium supplements. Also have had a stressful life during that time frame but now I have gotten my stress under control. Never had high blood pressure ever. Jada: Hi Dr.Cabral, Thanks for all of the wonderful information you make available for people! I'm a 37 year old woman who isn't overweight, pre-diabetic, smoker or drinker who has been experiencing heart disease symptoms. I get extremely short of breath by doing nothing to the point of feeling as if I'm suffocating and will prevent me from sleeping, chest pressure that can cause me to dry heave and will last for days/weeks at a time, heavy arms, weakness, being woken from sleep not breathing, sometimes SVT episodes, hair loss, tachycardia, fatigue, brain fog, inability to retain info and recall words, hormonal issues with possible endometriosis now, Hashimotos but thyroid is stable. These symptoms mildly started in 2012 after a stressful event but cardiac symptoms worsened in 2017 out of nowhere. My EKGs are now borderline and I've had one abnormal EKG after I was given Albuterol which showed Ischemia and mild T-wave depression. I've been to 9+ cardiologists, NDs and a couple functional medicine doctors that don't know what is wrong and they all tell me my heart is fine. I've had stress test, Stress MRI, echos, holter monitors(showed PACs,PVC and occasional SVT) but everything looks "fine." I've really lost my quality of life and while some days my symptoms calm down, I have many days where I can barely move because I'm so shortness of breath with such a tight chest! This is terrifying! I've had one doctor tell me this could be related to stealth infections or mycotoxins. Your expertise is much appreciated! Lauren: Dear Doctor Cabral, I've been listening to your podcasts for about 4 months, I love everything you do, its amazing how one person can be such a wealth of knowledge in so many different areas of expertise. I'm female, 31, 68kg, no children, BMI fine. I've been working with a local practitioner to help heal from a variety of dis-eases and more in discovered alone the way. I use to suffer with seasonal allergies (hay fever, pollen (Adelaide high pollen rate), animals, grass etc ever since I can remember). I now suffer constantly all year around from chronic itchy eyes (TRIED EVERYTHING), it's very debilitating as I wake myself up from itchy my eyes in my sleep therefore I never feel well rested. I use to live in Dubai, where my allergies didn't flare up but suffered regular ear infections as I was a flight attendant. My IGE is through the roof; 780 H and my eosinophils has been really high for a while now too. I have had asthma, eczema since I was a baby and suffered on and off with anxiety/depression since I was 16 (on/off meds). About 23, I was diagnosed with PCOS/celiac dis-ease and discovered had I H-pylori, which I took a millions AB's for. I recently got tested for MTHFR, which I tested positive for homozygous C677T and tested positive parasites Blasto (AB's didn't kill). I discovered some mould (killed with vinegar) in my home and also have a hypoallergenic dog. My symptoms and trying to treat are: chronic itchy eyes (TRIED EVERYTHING), acne (since I can remember), headaches, emotional, eczema/dry skin, high eosinophils, candida, parasites, brain fog, parasites. Past conventional treatment for acne: 2 courses of Roaccutane, Doxycycline, steroid injections, hormone blockers, even got a job a skin clinic, hoping I would heal. Working with my local practitioner and bicom therapy; we are addressing the parasites, possible candida and healing of the gut, with hope all of the other symptom will decrease. I eat relatively healthy, gluten free, dairy free, exercise/sweat 4-5 times per week, drink plenty of water, fast minimum 12 hours per day. Have a good sleep hygiene however never get a good night sleep. I would say I'm pitta/vata dosha type. Due to supplements, I've got my homo from 10.1 down to 4.4, b12 has increased, folate has increased, vit d has increased. I have really dry flaky skin on scalp/face and dry eyes but acne! I have tried low histamine diet (all vary depending where you source it) however it conflicts with the MTHFR diet and Ayurveda diet. I use your daily nutritional shake, do I require the additional supplements on top? I have read your amazing book RBE, use your daily nutritional shake, currently doing your allergy protocol and about to start your 21 day detox and parasite protocol. I would love to do the big five, especially the OAT test but as you know all these supplements and labs are very expensive. I know you have done podcasts before on a variety of the above topics however as you know not one size fits all and I don't think anyone out there has the exact health history as myself. I am doing everything I can within my financial means to help my recovery back to equilibrium. I'm really hoping you can help me, thanks for your time. Karyn: Hello, whenever I walk for exercise I find that my hands start to swell and feel uncomfortable and dry. I also get a little itchy on the inner parts of my thighs. I've read this could be a result of low sodium? I am otherwise fit (more so a lean vata bodytype), I eat whole foods and exercise often. I've noticed this happens mainly when I walk very faced paced and isn't affected by what I wear. Any suggestions on how I can stop this from happening as its quite uncomfortable. Thank you so much in advance! Reka: Hello Stephen, Can you please shed some light. Everyone is raving on about celery juice curing digestive disorders and disease because the of the medical medium. He also claims that eggs and butter (organic grass feed doesn't matter)cause disease over time is there truth to this, if so can you please explain? Thank you for everything you do! Cameron: Hi Dr Cabral, I'm a huge fan of all that you do, and listen to your podcast religiously. I especially love your training Thursday episodes, as I also enjoy weight training. I'm a 5' 9", 71kg predominantly Vata body type, and I'd like to gain a little size, without harming my health otherwise. In recent years I have suffered the symptoms of Menieres disease, however between your fantastic podcast and my local naturopath's help, I feel like I can say I've finally got on top of it, touch wood. The only problem is, I sometimes feel increased symptoms, mainly ear fullness and slight hearing loss in my right ear, within a day or so after workouts with heavy compound lifts, especially squats and deadlifts. I'm concerned the heavy lifts may be too taxing on my CNS and that may be the cause. What do you think? I'd love to know your thoughts on the connection between the CNS and weightlifting. I know my diet and sleep have room for improvement if I'm honest. Obviously my health is more important than growing "beach muscles", but just when I feel progress, my body often seems to flare up.Thanks so much for all you do. If you were in Australia I'd shout you a beer (or mineral water!) to say thanks.

One day people will stop believing the myth that their body is naturally supposed to break down, be in pain, and run out of energy as they age...

1347: Your Emotions Are Getting In the Way Of Your Happiness (MM)
One of the hardest things to see with your own eyes is that many of us live our lives based on how we're feeling at that moment... This means that if for some reason we have reason to be happy, we're happy. Or, if we have a reason to be sad, we're sad... It seems out of our control? The problem with this is that if you're always living by your emotions of the moment you'll never be able to live the life you seek... That's why on today's #CabralConcept 1347 I want to go over why your emotions are getting in the way of your happiness and what to do about it - Enjoy the show! - - - Show Notes & Resources: http://StephenCabral.com/1347 - - - 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.

1346: High Cortisol Fat, Organ Meat Amounts, Age Related Tests , Cancer Prevention Tips (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! Leah: Hi Dr. Cabral. An overall background about me. I live and breath a healthy lifestyle (and love it - no deprivation here;)). I exercise daily, always walking... living off a clean, mostly plant-based, no highly processed foods + organic diet (well-balanced macros + micros), dry brush, tongue scrape... the works. I'm not tooting my own horn but rather give you a general picture of my lifestyle. One thing I can honestly agree is that my stress levels and anxiety are my biggest battle. About a year ago I have been finding myself at this burnout state. Feeling nauseous, weak (in bed) and fluelike symptoms, which happened about once or twice every other month (give or take). After reading your book (the rain barrel effect) It all made sense to me how I got to this state over a long period of time, even though everything else was right, the toxins (stress) just overflowed. My question is this:I did the FM detox, and while I see many amazing results from family and friends who did it with me, I didn't see or feel major changes. I didn't go down on the scale or react in any way. I try to implement meditation and overall calming rituals to balance my stress levels. I haven't been in this burnout mode for a while, but then sure enough... this week I find myself back in this cycle (this time I also experienced indigestion issues).What other steps can you suggest (lab test + lifestyle changes, or supplements) that I should implement?Also, side note: While It isn't my main concern; I have been struggling with the last 5-10 lbs. Eating clean (not too much but definitely enough/ full) and moving around (16,000 steps daily average and strength training 4-5x /week) Would this stubborn fat be related to the stress and anxiety? Thanks again for the amazing messages and knowledge you share with us all. You have impacted my life in ways you can't imagine. I really appreciate the time and effort you give. All the best, Leah. Anonymous: Hi Dr. Cabral. I am starting to incorporate organ meat into my diet and was wondering if there is a limit to how much I should eat? It is all grass fed and finished and comes from a local farmer. Also I have been listening to a podcast with a doctor who eats carnivore and he eats his meat raw. I have since looked into this and have seen many people online who do this. I am not considering this but out of interest, what are your thoughts on eating meat (organ, muscle etc) raw? As always thank you for your response. Melissa: Hello I am so thrilled to have found you earlier this year! I am binge listening to your Podcast and have heard you talk about genetic testing. I was wondering if you continue to recommend testing and which brand you recommend? Seems like I remember something about teleomere testing! I love learning from you and would love to know half of what you have learned! Jenny: Hi Dr. Cabral! Thanks for all the amazing information you share with us daily, for free. I listen to your podcasts to and from work everyday and it's made my commute seem "worth it." Question about genetic predispositions. My mother has battled (and won) 2 breast cancer battles. She is BRCA1+ as are my sister and I. I chose preventative, risk reducing surgery to lower my breast cancer risk which I feel really great about especially because my sister just finished her breast cancer battle. We also have a 54% risk of ovarian cancer with this mutation. I know you said we can change or maybe turn on/off our genetic predispositions. I'm currently 37 and am not ready to start a family. My gynecological oncologist is pushing fallopian tube/ovary removal to lower my risk of this awful cancer (known well as the silent killer) but I'm not ready. What are your thoughts and advice you have on this topic if this was, say your sister or daughter in this position? I appreciate everything you do and are trying to do! I hope to join the IHP level 1 one day as I love learning. Thank you!

1345: Seeing Lights, Light Headedness, Women vs. Men Fasting, My Dog's Diet, Blepharitis, Seborrheic Keratosis (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: Cara: Hi Dr. Cabral! Yesterday (August 31) about 45 minutes after a hard workout at 10:30am; dead lift holds, overhead holds, kettlebell swings, assault bike, I got home and I had wavy lights in my peripheral vision. It freaked me out and this had happened to me a couple of months ago and I remembered a nurse friend said it was likely low blood sugar. I ate some mango and about 20 minutes later it went away. I had a DNS smoothie with blueberries and avocado about an hour before my workout and by the time I was done working out, I had half a gallon of water. This has happened 3 times in the last 4 years, each time was after a work out. I'm super healthy, I don't drink alcohol. I do the Dr Cabral Foundation Level 1 plus cal/mag, 3,000mg of Alkalized vitamin c, lysine, Vitamin D, CBD. I eat wild salmon twice a week and sardines 3 times a week, so I only occasionally take EN fish oil. I started to google search this but stopped because things like mini-strokes came up. All of my recent bloodwork was all where it should be according to your podcast guidance and I just had an eye exam and other than my life long near-sightedness, my eye health is perfectly healthy. Does this sound like low blood sugar? If so, why would it be the case if I ate breakfast and worked out at 10:30, plus had 32 oz of water? I do not want to go to a doctor because it'll be at least an MRI ordered. Im in your IHP Level 2 right now. Thank you for ALL you do! Cara: Follow up: I received a reply from our Dr Cabral Support Group from an optometrist and she said that what I experienced could be a visual aura. She said most visual auras precede a migraine or headache but a good amount of people never get the headache and just experience the aura. I never had a headache or a migraine after any of these occurrences. Then my next question, why would I be getting these aura migraines? Gabriela: Hi Dr. Cabral First I love your podcasts, very informative. Now for my question do you believe women should fast differently than men, are you familiar whith Dr. Beth who is all about women's health. She believes women should have snacks during the fast because of our hormones. Would really love to hear what you have to say about this. Thank you! Luke: Hi Dr. Cabral. Would you be able to tell me what you typically feed your dog. As with humans, diet for pets seems to be a topic that has many differing opinions. What does your dog's diet look like (types of foods and amount), and do you give him any supplements? I know you would have done your research on this and I appreciate your response. Thank you. Richelle: Hi Dr, Cabral,I've done your 7 day detox and am currently using the deep sleep protocol. I love using the support group and Michelle advised me to ask you my specific question. I have Blepharitis and my doctor currently has me using tea tree oil wipes which has helped. She says it will never be cured but by doing this it will keep it under control. Because of this, I rarely wear any makeup. I also suspect that I have a parasite issue and plan on doing that protocol in October after my trip to Jamaica.I also have been diagnosed with Afib and aflutter and had open heart surgery as a baby back in 1960. I'm currently on a blood thinner,Eliquis, and take diltiazem for high blood pressure. I'm taking magnesium and only half the recommendation for the blood thinner. At my request, my doctor is gradually lowering my blood pressure medicine as I don't want to be on any meds. I've lost 11 pounds recently, retired from teaching after 36 years and need to lose more weight as I know it will help lower blood pressure. Please give me your expert advice regarding my issues.Thanks for your time Natasha: Hi SC I was wondering if there was a way to stop or get rid of seborrheic keratosis other than freezing them off. As i get older I seem to be getting more and more and im becoming self conscious to wear a bikini in summer they are over my back and stomach and chest and dont look that great. Would appreciate any advice.
