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: Karyn: Hello, after receiving my OAT results earlier this year I have commenced the CBO Protocol. All is going well and i am into my 6th week, however, I have noticed my asthma has become particularly bad during this time and I am having to take my cortico-steriod inhaler almost every second day. I believe inhaling my cortico-steriod contributed to the growth of candida in the first place. Will the CBO work if I'm still taking this medication? And why do you think the CBO Protocol has affected my asthma in this way? I only developed asthma 6 years ago after moving to another city (in subtropical Australia) and getting cats for pets. I found out I was allergic to cats and found a new home for them last year. Is there something I'm missing if I've removed the allergy (cats) from my life but I'm still getting asthma flare ups on this CBO protocol? Should I cease the protocol until I've got my asthma under control? Thank you for you advice in advance, your podcasts have changed my life for the better and I love learning everyday from you. Anne: I just read The Longevity Diet by Valter Longo and he shares similar views to yours on diet and longevity. One difference I see is that he recommends a 5 day fast, and that autophagy begins on day 3. I have also read other articles that say that autophagy begins after day 3. Curios to your thoughts on why you recommend adding regular food on day 3 of your detox and how your method compares to the fasting mimicking diet he recommends.Just a note that I have afib and are doing everything I can to avoid chemicals or ablation. I have completely changed my diet to vegan plant based, take supplements (magnesium, taurine, omega3, D3 and am planning to take more). So far went from 3-4 incidents a week to 1 a week. I thought fasting or detox might take it to the next level. Thank you for all you do! Your podcasts have been very educational. Katie: Hi Dr Cabral, I've been listening to your podcasts (love it!) regarding blood sugar and know you are in agreement with other functional docs regarding fasting blood sugar and the range being good between 75 and 95. My blood sugar has been a bit high in the AM and have implemented your adrenal soothe and added carbs and now I'm in the 80s usually! So it seems to have been an adrenal issue? Anyway,now I am wondering how my after meal BS sugar is looking. I know you would like to see the fasting range two hours after but what about an hour after? I have recently read and article, written by someone I respect, that the goal is to not have your BS spike above 125 but is this possible with carbs? When I have a cheat meal I find that it goes into the 160s. And often it doesn't come down to ideal range after two hours. This is the main reason I have stayed away from carbs and your OAT showed that I have done too much of this. The only other issue revealed was Candida overgrowth and I have not started the protocol yet. Id love you to weigh in! I am Vata type all the way if that help Carrie: I have been binge eating for about 10 years now on and off. I feel like I'm so bored in life and constantly need to be 'doing'. This binge eating is only thing that 'calms me down'. I have seen many natural health practitioners about this but the binge eating is still there. Do you have any suggestions Anonymous: I have a question about bloating, bad gas and peri-rectal dermatitis that started after finishing your CBO protocol (with citracidal drops) and starting the heavy metal detox. I performed the OAT, HTMA, and food sensitivities test before starting any of the protocols. I was told overall things look pretty good. OA had "mild" CBO and low vit C, HTMA high aluminum, Food sensitives only cranberries and candida as high reactors. Had a couple of moderate reactors that I rarely eat. I use the daily nutrition support shake along with several other of the equilibrium products (vit C, vit b, digestive enzymes, etc) but use a different greens powder b/c of the cranberry, just to give some background. I did the CBO protocol followed by the heavy metal detox per recommendations. After starting the heavy metal detox I started having extreme flatulence and bloating that would results in a perirectal dermatitis. What's going on? Don't get me wrong, I would occasionally have some gas before but never to this extent and these additional other problems. Magaly: Hello Dr. Cabral. I'm pregnant with my third child right now and considering Tube ligation as a form of permanent contraception. I've been on the pill for a very long time and after listening to your podcasts no longer feel it is the healthiest thing for me to do. (Side note: since I did decide to come off the pill I became pregnant as a result )I want to know what your view point is and how it might affect or change my overall heath, as well as any better suggestions as a form of contraceptives.Thank you for sharing all your knowledge with us. Greg: Hi Dr. Cabral, Apologies for the long post. I'm desperate and in tears writing this and pray I can get your help. My 5 year old daughter has been having headaches, anxiety and sleep problems for about 2 years. We recently did an OAT, Food Panel and MycoTox test. Results show she is allergic to eggs and cashews, low on Vit C, all other gut function and markers normal. The mycoTox test was off the charts for Aspergillus, specifically Ochratoxin A at a 29.48, Gliotoxin levels in red as well at 950.27 and Aflatoxin-M1 at <3.50. Results also show Penicillum specifically, Mycophenolic Acid elevated at 10.15. We tested through and are working with a Pediatric Functional Medicine doctor, however she does claim not to be an expert on mold with kids. She gave us a protocol of biocidin, citrus pectin, vit c and liposomal glutathione as well as recommended inspection to eliminate source in homes and cars. In addition use citrisafe and borax. I found several of your podcasts on mold from the search feature and listened to all of them which they were super helpful. My question is can I also use your same mold protocol for my daughter? How do we find the source of the exposure? What inspection companies do you recommend and should I be looking for a certain certification? Could food be part of the mold exposure or is it for sure water damaged buildings and/or cars? If this happened to one of your daughters, can you give me step by step what you would do? I'm overwhelmed and my heart is breaking that this has happened to my little girl. Apologies for the long question. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your help and time.

You'd be hard-pressed to find someone that is a bigger believer in exercise and all of its benefits than me… However, what many people overlook is the fact that exercise and working out is also a stressor on the body… This means that it must be carefully monitored in order to not overflow your "rain barrel" leading to dis-ease...

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! Zoe: Hi dr. Cabral, I'm very curious about your opinion on the differences in workout and nutrition strategies between men and women. Do you think men and women need to work out significantly differently? And if so - what do you feel works best for each? And I would love to know what you think about macronutrient intake. Do you think men and women need the same ratio of fats, carbs and protein or is there difference in how our body utilizes it and how we burn it? I appreciate your opinion so much, and can't wait to hear your thoughts about this! Thanks s million! Zoe. Caitie: Hi Dr. Cabral! Thank you for all that you do, listening to your podcast and reading the rain barrel effect has impacted my life greatly for the better! I'm writing you about My 55 year old mother. She seems to be starting menopause. She goes from freezing cold to a hot flash with lightheadedness seemingly randomly. The hotflashes seem to be worsened by stress. The hotflashes are almost unbearable and keep her up most nights. Her last period was over 90 days ago. She started black cohosh with no help. She's been talking ashwaganda for 6 months and that has help substainally with brain fog and mood balance until as of Recent. Do you have any recommendations as to what types of things might help her symptoms during this time? Or do you think that this could be something other than menopause contributing to this? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated Anonymous: Hello Doctor Cabral, I was hoping you could address binge eating disorder in a more objective way in terms of explaining why it happens in certain people and if this is a brain-based evolutionary response or the result of an overall imbalance in the body. I have completed the 21-day detox, the CBO protocol, and several 7 day detoxes. During all protocols, I felt amazing during the first couple weeks as I modeled the 3 meals a day habit and daily 12 hour fast, but then I began to develop an intense desire for foods not on the lists during the 2-3rd weeks. This was not like a typical craving for sugary, starchy, or processed foods, but almost a primal desire to binge on any kind of food (nuts, nut butters, hommus). This has never happened to me before these protocols, but after reading about binge eating disorder, it lead me to question if the food restrictions in the detox or CBO protocol can unintentionally trigger binge eating in some people that have this genetic tendency. I know you operate under the idea that this lifestyle "allows" you to eat healthy foods rather than "restrict" unhealthy ones, and you don't believe in counting calories or complete restriction with the use of flex meals. However, for me on all occasions, this behavior was very immediate and was not something I felt like I could change my mindset about or talk myself out of, for it felt like my brain was convincing me that it was a survival necessity to binge. Chris: Hello, So I'm a 20 year old male and have been suffering with what I think is some type of fungal overgrowth in my intestines for a couple years. I was diagnosed with Lyme disease when I was 17, and I took a month of doxycline, two months of monocycle, and two months of tindamax. Ever since I took the minocycline I have felt completely out of it. It feels like I am living in a dream. I have terrible fatigue, ZERO libido, joint pain, and many food intolerances that I never had before in life. I have tried every candida diet, enzyme, and herbal supplement possible, and am beginning to lose hope. Nothing is giving me any relief at all. I took a neurotransmitter test and both my serotonin and dopamine are off the charts low. Also, I noticed that my symptoms get much worse when I eat fermented foods like milk kefir. I was wondering if you think that you would be able to help my condition. Thank you, Chris Amelie: Hi Dr Cabral -Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge.35 year-old female here. I was recently diagnosed with localized scleroderma in the hands (mostly) and feet.I ran a comprehensive blood panel test (thyroid, blood, electrolytes, DHEA, minerals etc) everything came normal except a very low total T3 (60 over a 76-181 ng/dL range) and a very high PTH (84 over a 14-64pg/mL range).I have had Raynauld (resulting from scleroderma) for 18 years and didn't know the actual underlying issue (at least seeing the symptoms over the last 6 years) was scleroderma.So basically, calcinosis of the connective tissue.I have very tight swollen and painful fingers. My hands become numb and tingling with a burning (like fire) feeling when I sleep. Excrutiatingly painful.Not sure if it is the side effects of formation of calcium crystals in my hands.After lots of reading, I started supplementing with D3/K2. Also, I am trying to eliminate as much greens and bets and other oxalate-forming foods since Is suspect they aggravate my condition.Any thought? Recommendations on what to do or start from? Note: the cause has been linked to extreme endurance sports (running, cycling, triathlons) for the last 19 years that affected my thyroids, and two bouts of anorexia 18 and 15 years ago (with 12 years of amenorrhea).Thank you so much for anything you can help with.

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: Isabelle: Thanks so much for your extraordinary work Dr. Cabral. I've been having hormone and adrenal issues for a decade that became at times debilitating around age 27. Since that time I began making radical changes in my diet and taking high-quality supplements. I have maintained a very healthy all organic diet for 5 years now, supplementing for adrenal, gut and thyroid health for the past 3 years. Starting from ovulation until a few days before my menstrual cycle my energy levels plummet and starting from a few days before my cycle, like clockwork, I lose water weight and have insomnia plus way more energy. I know that my estrogen levels are normal but dominant. I'm 32 years old and I've started noticing a rapid loss in the collagen in my skin and an increase in cellulite all over my legs as well as sagging skin under my chin and neck. The skin all over my body is aging stunningly fast which is strange considering how young I am and how well I take care of myself. What would cause such rapid aging of skin elasticity? Christinna: Hi Stephen.I am such a huge fan of everything you do and I have also had a 3 mounth program with one of ur health coaches. I am a vatta and at the time my energi and Iron was low, i did all of the test, the thyroid adrenal hormoner and hair and tissue. So as she looked at the test, She suggest twise a week red meat. My quistions is, why? I am mostly vegan and all the pp. Around me. Says that meat is bad, i hang out with many vegans and I fell like such a bad person. I also want my girl to be vegan, yet my husband will not be vegan and I am just so torn and upset. I read all books on health, one half says i will harm my health if i dont eat a little meat and I don't want to harm me, but even more my daugther. I am upset, because i dont want to support the meat industri. It is hurtig my marrige and I just want my girl to at least be able to know whats going on with the animals, but she is only 2.Please share some light. Kind regrad Christinna Rick: Best podcast I've heard. Thank you so much for the info you share. My question: What can I do to speed up recovery of my whiplash?? My neck has been stiff and painful for over 8 MONTHS NOW!! It has affected my life in many many ways and while I've had slow minor improvement- I am still suffering. (Hit a pole trying to swerve around a car that abruptly stopped while) I'm afraid I might be dealing with this the rest of my life... I've tried acupuncture, many rounds of PT, Orthopedic, no help from GP, Neurology at MGH, mri and xrays show as "normal". I've tried light exercises, heavy exercise, weights, cardio, rest... just can't shake it!! Thanks so much for your help. I will be scheduling an appt in the near future with your team for other reasons as well. Michael: I am 35 and I am struggling with dermatagraphia. It started 1.5 years ago after coming through a stressful time. I also got sick a couple weeks prior to first sign of issue. It noticeably spread, starting in my legs and over 10 days spreading over whole body. When it reached my face it flushed my face for a couple days so that I could not rest it even on a pillow. I have tried many things. Detox programs, 10 day juice fast, leaky gut protocol, a month of keto followed by a 7 day water fast. Nothing seems to help or make it worse. I have tried to identify certain foods that help or make it worse and can't. I have no other issues and am otherwise healthy. Have not had any medication or even so much as an aspirin since I got sick before the issue started 1.5 years ago. Doctors just want to give me anti histamines, which I won't take. It is much better now than at its worse point, but still anytime I get a scratch or bump my skin itches at a 20 on a scale from 1 to 10 and gets red. There is no swelling, just red and intense itching. It also only lasts for a short time. Starting about 20 sec from stimulation, intense itch red skin and then subsides within a minute or two if I leave it alone. Stress does make it worse, I feel like I am throwing darts at a dart board, need guidance. Anonymous: Hi Dr. Cabral! First off, thanks for all you do! Second, I'm curious regarding your thoughts about the plant-based meat substitute. Would this be suitable to eat as I'm transitioning to more of a plant-based diet? If not, what plant-based meat substitutes would you recommend? Additionally, how would you suggest I go about switching to a plant-based diet? I've been eating Paleo off and on for the past few years, but I feel like I'm having a hard time digesting meat now. Thanks so much! Cath: Hi dr Cabral, What are your views or experience with either DNRS training? Specifically for someone with chronic health conditions (ibs/fatigue/hormonal imbalances/ candida/sibo) who has done all the necessary lifestyle and diet changes plus protocols for a number of years (including a page perfect de stress protocol) with recurring relapses. Thank you ! Carey: Hi Dr Cabral, I'm in the IHP program and loving it! Thanks for what you do.I am a woman with Hashimotos who is managing it well with diet, exercise, self care, basically practicing the destress protocol daily.. I practice a daily 12 hour fast, occasionally pushing it to 13 or 14 hours. I've listened to all of your podcasts about fasting and ketosis… Is it best to practice a daily fast, sometimes intermittent fasting and pushing the time a little further, bring predominantly plants based, along with high quality proteins and fats, with Hashimotos? Is there a time you feel is too long for a woman with Hashimotos to fast? Just looking for some guidance on fasting, intermittent fasting, how it could affect a woman with Hashimotos… Thanks very much!

Welcome back to this #FridayReview where I'll be bringing you the best of the week! I can't wait to review the fun health products I found like the biodegradable "hay straws" or the latest pastured ghee that also comes in a hypoallergenic goat's milk variety... Plus, I have some scary research to share on how acid blockers are increasing mortality in those that take them (over the counter ones too)... And, I'd like to begin noting more of the other podcast interviews I've been on such as this week's Ayurvedic Interview. Last - but not least, I'm going to embed a free full-length documentary on "The Doctor that Gave Up Drugs" documentary for you to check out and pass along to friends in need...

When I was first trying to get my health back I had never even heard of heavy metals... Like most people, I was skeptical and thought this was just some made-up "toxicity" that natural health practitioners talked about to scare people... Little did I know back then that heavy metal toxicity is well researched and both conventional & naturopathic medicine both agree it is something to be aware of... On today's #CabralConcept 1280 I want to share with you the signs & symptoms you may be feeling of heavy metal burden on your body and how to go about safely eliminating them through natural measures - Enjoy the show! - - - Show Notes & Resources: http://StephenCabral.com/1280 - - - 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.
