The Cabral Concept

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: Joanna: Hi Dr Cabral Im currently week 10 of the cbo protocol and also completed the detox prior to the cbo. I have been having this strange sensation usually after i eat majority of the time where my stomach bugles out, its like my stomach on the upper left side is bloated almost, its not painful just strange sensation like something isnt right (this has been ongoing prior to starting the cbo). Im studying IHP and learnt it could possibly be the LES isnt closing properly, or low hcl. Since starting the cbo i also have been getting pain that is in my upper left side sometimes right and below my neck mid back all upper. Could this be related? Would you have any idea what this could be? I had a abdo ultrasound, gallbladder was fine but showed a small cyst in my kidney and liver? Many thanks joanna Joanna: Hi Dr Cabral I have just been diagnosed with a simple cyst on my liver and one on my kidney. I am week 10 of the cbo and completed the detox prior. Do you know what could possibly cause these cysts and how i can treat them naturally?? Could it be a build up of toxins not been excreted? What causes cyst to develop in the body? I did come off the oral contraceptive pill in aug 2018 and since then have been very depleted in minerals and found out i was very acidic and was getting stomach cramps etc. I heard a acidic body could cause these also. What are your thoughts? Many thanks for taking your time to answer these questions greatly appreciated. Joanna Joanna: Hi Dr cabral Thankyou for taking the time to answer all these questions. I have been diagnosed with high pyrolls disorder about 1 year ago, which means i dont absord zinc or b6 well. I take both b6 and zinc.I take about 50mg of zinc before bed and also whats in the DNS, and i take b6 as part of your activated b vitamins. My question is; im currently week 10 of the cbo and working on gut healing and absorption however im still not absorbing zinc, i have white spots on my nails and they just don't disappear. What can i do to better absorb zinc. I take zinc picolinate (brand is NOW from iherb? ) many thanks Joanna: Hi Dr Cabral I have been told i am a undermethylater and was prescribed NAC and Sam-e for serotonin production. My question is, is the supplement sam-e neccessary, i have started adrenal soothe recently however as i have histamine issues i get bad hayfever and sinus so is difficult to take due to ashwahganda causing histmaine intolerance. Can you heal from undermethylation is this something i will always have to live with ? I found sam-e dosent do much for me however im sure its doing something. Thanks cabral :) Joanna: Hi Dr cabral I just wanted to know how you healed your histamine intolerance? Over the years what did you do? I have a histamine intolerance and cant eat high histamine foods or take adrenal soothe cause of the ashwahganda makes me react.Im completing the cbo but have reintroduced alot of fruits like bananna and pinapple etc which is causing me alot of hayfever sinus etc I think this could be a big underlying roor cause for alot of my issues How can i slowly treat this so i can one day tolerate more histamine foods and have less allergys Ps. I do have ashma since i was little and have always suffered allergys etc thankyou Magda: Hello - I am going to start the 7 day detox program this Friday morning, May 10. I see that a cup of herbal tea is optional. Is it optional to have a cup of coffee in the morning upon waking? Or not recommended during this detox program? Thank you, Magda Kate: Hello Dr Cabral My 9 year old son has been unwell for years on and off. An immunologist is pretty sure he has PFAPA an autoinflammatory disease. Do you have any treatment options for this? Thanks.

Occasional lower back stiffness isn't typically anything to be worried about, however, weekly symptoms are not to be dismissed… These lower back issues can manifest as tightness, dull aching, cramping, pulsing, heat, or sharp pain… The good news is that if you're currently suffering from any of these symptoms it typically isn't a serious health condition and can be corrected fairly easily… Tune into today's #CabralConcept 1252 for the full explanation on your lower back pain and stiffness and what to do about it – enjoy the show! - - - Show Notes & Resources: http://StephenCabral.com/1252 - - - 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.

This is what I wish I had when I was 17 years old... When I went to over 2 dozens medical specialists looking for an answer as to why my body was shutting down there was no clear concise plan... Everyone had their own "method," but it never seemed to match my ailments... So I continued to stay sick... Until I met my mentor and realized there really is a way to heal - forever.

Often times we're always looking at what the next and newest nutritional supplement is on the market to give us an edge... But did you know there are actually activities you may be doing daily (and certain foods you are eating) that could be diminishing your nutrient reserves? On today's #CabralConcept 1250 I am going to share with you the daily activity that depletes you of those vitamins and minerals and how you can combat it - Enjoy the show! - - - Show Notes & Resources: http://StephenCabral.com/1250 - - - 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.

The reason why people do not achieve the life they want has nothing to do with the body or intellect or any other genetic factor... Most people have shortcomings in life and come from imperfect backgrounds... So, what I see being the deciding factor is the ability to control ones' most dominant thoughts in order to continue to persevere in the direction of what they desire (despite life's many obstacles)...

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! Anonymous: Hi, I was wondering whether there is any point in purchasing the DCD or candida & bacteria overgrowth protocol if you are not willing to follow the nutritional guidelines? I have been following a clean diet according to many of your recommendations since doing the DCD earlier this year. Unfortunately this has now slowly spiraled me back into former patterns of disordered eating. I previously had a clinically diagnosed eating disorder which I recovered from, but whenever I try to follow any sort of nutritional guidelines I end up back in that very negative place, even if my intentions were wellness based. I have therefore decided that this is not the path for me. I still want to do what I can for my health and therefore wonder if there are health benefits when only taking the supplements of the above protocols or whether it is not really worth the financial investment when not following the diet as well? Many thanks for all of the work that you do!! Krista: Hi Dr. Cabral, Quick question for you : how much protein do you recommend pre-teen and teenage boys get on a daily basis? Specifically I'm trying to figure out for my 11 & 14 year old boys (who are on the leaner end weighing 55 and 75 pounds respectively). Just wanting to make sure they are getting enough but also not too much…! Thanks so much for all you do! Larissa:Hi Dr. Cabral! What are your personal thoughts on the "healthier" alternatives to the standard "processed meats?" I know you've mentioned that the Mayo clinic found that Processed meats are definitely carcinogenic. What about Sausages and Hot Dogs made from organic / pasture-raised animal meat without the added Sodium Nitrate and those brands that say "no added sugar?" Thank you for all you do! :) Ari:hi I have depression and anxiety & am 21 years old. I am super low mood ( have been since I was 5 years old) and cannot get out of bed without adderal etc. I have been getting recurring sinus infections for at least the past 10 years, took birth control for 2 years, and have taken anti-biotics more times than I can count. I am going to do a DCD, and CBO protocol. Should i be doing anything else on the hormone front regarding the past birth control use? Nora: Hi, I get really bad periods and have depression & anxiety. Birth control pills are the only thing that have sucessfully gotten my period under control. I really want to take care of my gut as well as improve my liver function. Can I do the CBO protocol while on hormonal birth control pills? If I am taking hormonal birth control, how can I seal my leaky gut? Beth: Hello. I am an avid listener to your podcast and have been truly inspired by your knowledge. Thank you so much for all you give. I understand that this may not be answered for up to 12 weeks but I am desperate for an answer to some of my husband's health problems. I think I know that you're going to tell us to get him do all the tests, but being in England and having everything shipped over through you guys will cost. I will try to find a functional doctor near me over here but I don't feel like I can trust anyone but you! My other intuition tells me that he needs to see an Ayurveda Dr but Ayurveda is so unknown over here that it will be really difficult to find someone to help him. His problems are as follows: cold-induced urticaria, blocked sinuses; resulting in terrible headaches occasionally, blocked Eustachian tubes so he can hear constant clicking in his ears and now he has lost his sense of taste which came about after a recent tummy bug. We cut out meat and dairy (95%) from our diet last September and he has been to see a kinesiologist and so now he was told that his body doesn't like, pork, dairy, alcohol, sugar, chocolate, caffeine, prawns so he has cut out all of those. He used to drink a medium amount (probably about 2-3 beers and 2 glasses of red wine) every night and has cut back to almost zero since Christmas. It seems to have made no difference. On the odd occasion he has had a few beers (like twice since Christmas) he has ended up with such a bad headache the next day, accross the forehead, we presume linked to sinuses. He was told by his kinesiologist that all his organs are fine, liver is working well (which I was surprised about considering the amount he has drunk over the years!), strong digestion, no candida/sibo etc. He hasn't been to a regular Dr for about a year now because they told him it would 'probably just clear up'. Anitbiotics didn't work for him. I am worried that his sinusitis is never going to clear up (he has had it for 3-4 years) and now I am worried his sense of taste won't come back. Do you think they are blocked permanently (ie the damage has been done)? Lastly, he has taken your Sinus Support (3 per day for 2 months) and it hasn't done anything (yet?). We have completed Deepak Chopra's Ayurveda quiz and he is a Pitta (81) Vata (69) Kapha (50). He works really hard manually and usually 6 days per week, I know he needs to rest more ...but he is a Pitta!! Thank you in advance for any advice you can offer. I look forward to hearing any response.Kind regards, Beth 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/1248 - - - 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.

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: Jordan: Hi Dr Cabral. I am a collegiate athlete and so typically I train for 3 hours a day (2 hrs of sport, 1 hr of weight room stuff). How can I make sure I am getting enough calories in? I'd even like to build muscle if possible. I know you aren't a fan of eggs and bacon first thing in the morning but taking a protein shake and a bowl of oatmeal only fills me up for around two hours. Should I start taking more protein shakes (although i get gas and bloating with whey)? I know there is some healthy plant based mass gainer shakes that use plant protein, gluten free oats, and organic maltodextrin, maybe i should try those? anyways, I would appreciate any advice. Thanks! Christina: Dr Stephen Cabral, you are such an inspiration and I have gained so much knowledge from your book "The Rain Barrel Effect" and from listening to your podcasts.I came across a mushroom called Lions Mane. It had some supporting research on the positive impacts it has with Dementia and depression. My question is: have you read or heard about Lions Mane, and what your thoughts are on the effects of this mushroom. Thank you for taking the time to answer my question. Katy: Hi Dr Cabral! I recently became a nurse practitioner and have started with IFM certification program, yay!! I have a question regarding my own labs. My TSH is 3.1 FT3 is 2.2 FT4 1.1 RT3 is 10 TPO 17 ANTI-TG 928 I restested 4 weeks later and numbers were pretty much the same. I realize my thyroid is sluggish. I however have NO signs of hypothyroid except a little bit of stubborn lower body fat. I am 30 years old, have no medical history, I'm very active and eat a paleo diet 90% of the time. I somewhat acknowledge that I may feel better with a little thyroid hormone but Im not ready to start that at this time. My REAL question is ..... I don't understand why my anti-tg is so elevated but TPO is not.... I am working to lower this to the best of my current knowledge. Can you explain why we seem to focus more on TPO and I don't hear as much about anti-tg and wouldn't both be elevated? Anonymous: Hello Dr Cabral, I have been listening to this podcast for some time now and I appreciate all the information you share. Thank you! I have been suffering with pain, throbbing pain at the rectum that can last for hours, making it difficult to sit; following bowel movements for approximately 5 years now. A bit of background is 5 years ago I had an procedure to correct a anal fistula and I have never been the same since both physically or mentally. The procedure was excruciating and tortuous. I have since seen many doctors to seek help for my consistent pain. I've had many treatments to help with pain including Botox, steroid creams, estrogen creams, hemerriod creams, opioids and I have also eliminated certain foods that I noticed caused more pain such as almonds - I'm not sure why consumption of almonds affect me in this way, they don't change my bowl motion just the pain. I don't suffer constipation and sometimes have lose stool but the consistency of my stool has no correlation to the pain, it is the passing motion that results in the pain. I am able to manage life since removing almonds which is amazing considering all the other interventions I've had that didn't give me any results, but I would love to be pain free. I will not have surgery again as I was in such a bad place after the initial surgery where I saw no hope for my life due to the immense pain I was in. Do you have any idea what is wrong with me and what I might be able to try? I've tried candida cleanses, gut protocols, elimination diets, I do FM detoxes regularly, eat a clean diet, had a stool test that showed strep and low ecoli and low diversity of probiotics and I'm doing protocol to address this now. I'm really at a loss and I'm hopeful that you might be able to suggest something to try. Thank you and kindest regards. Susana:For someone dealing with candida, do you suggest doing a detox first and then the candida protocol or the other way around? Winter: Hi. I am a 55 year old female who is wanting to detoxify the metals in my body. I am showing signs of autoimmune disease but otherwise healthy. I would like to start with the 7 day detox program however I have metal fillings. Could the 7 day still help or do the fillings nullify the process? Thank you. Anonymous:Hi Dr. Cabral, I am at a loss. After going off birth control (that I was on for 10 years) due to experiencing anxiety and chin breakouts, my hormonal acne has never been worse. I take milk thistle and a B complex as well as eat a very clean, whole food vegan diet. After doing research, i am doing everything right, but I am still experiencing terrible cystic acne. What can I do to help balance my hormones naturally? Thank you. Lisa: Hi Dr. Cabral and team! I'm really struggling with inflammation. I have done the 21 day detox, CBO, gut rebuilding protocols and my tongue still has red painful spots and a weird pattern that is white. My OAT did show some yeast overgrowth, but for some reason my body is struggling to rid it. I got desperate and even tried months of a strong antifungal pharmaceutical with the keto diet. My tongue did not improve. My biomedical doctor thinks I need to give LDN a try to help decrease inflammation. I've done multiple labs, including your adrenal/ thyroid, OAT, IgG food sensitivity, stool, HTMA, and I also do a lab called NutEval. Shockingly my labs look good besides a little Estrogen dominance (taking Estrogen Dominance), little yeast overgrowth, aluminium in my HTMA, and low omega 3s. I do notice improvements with taking 2000mg of omega 3s and CBD oil twice a day, so I feel like that is sign I need to focus on anti inflammatories. I know you can't give medical advice and I know you don't do pharmaceuticals, but could you share your opinion on LDN (Low Dose Naltrexone). Thank you!!!

Welcome back to Holiday weekend edition of the #FridayReview! Today I'm looking forward to recapping our Summer Community Detox Challenge, 4th of July celebrations, and cheat meal enzymes... Plus, I can't wait to share with you a book on napping (really!) and how it can benefit your entire physiology - especially for those that don't have time to nap! We've had a major week full of research breakdown and how it applies in the real world and on today's show I'm here to share another study on how taking a daily aspirin can actually do more harm than good... Last up, I'll explain the reasoning behind conflicting DNA/Genetic testing markers and why you may see discrepancies on your lab results... Tune into today's #CabralConcept 1246 for all the details - Enjoy the show! - - - Show Notes & Resources: http://StephenCabral.com/1246 - - - 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.

Believe it, or not, not every form of body fat is created equal... There's actually a form of belly fat that accumulates mostly in the belly area that can create ALL the major causes of early mortality... The problem is in "diagnosing" this type of fat and figuring out how to shrink since it lies so deep in the body... So, on today's #CabralConcept 1245 we are going to expose this deadly form of belly fat (how to measure it) and explain how to remove it once and for all - Enjoy the show! - - - Show Notes & Resources: http://StephenCabral.com/1245 - - - 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.
