1051 Clinic in India, Collagen Powder, Gastroparesis, Cheat Meal Timing, Halt Cognitive Decline, Exercise Post Nasal Drip, Pinpoint Pupils (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: Nala: Hi i was hoping that you could recommend a center in india do do a 21 - 30 day panchakarma ? Ive been researching my own but thought with your experience you could refer a place Thank you. Ps im and organic farmer and permaculture land scaper living in California. I would like to continue eating organic and being in a place out of a city. I loved your book everyone in our family (extended) is reading it Cherie: I am about to start the CBO protocol and was wondering when/if I can continue to use my collagen powder. Also I liked day one and day two of the 7 day detox. Could I continue to only have the all in one shake on the first two days of each week during the CBO protocol? Annika: Hello there, thank you for the great work you're doing. My sister told me that you are about to launch your own certified program to teach people your way of healing. Unfortunately, I cannot find anything about it on your website. Maybe I looked in the wrong places. Is there an email list I can join to get more information about it? Thank you for getting back to me. Best regards from Germany Annika Brooklynn: Hello, I'm in my late 20s, and have been diagnosed by a GI with leaky gut and gastroparesis. I eat gluten, diary, and almond free after getting my IgG and IgE results back. I struggle with bloating, constant exhaustion and fatigue, and lately extreme pain and soreness in my neck/shoulders. Can you please let me know what you'd recommend? I'm unsure of what to do. Thanks in advance for your expertise, insight and knowledge. I appreciate and respect how dedicated you are about helping others, and love your consistent enthusiasm and passion on your podcast! Joel: Hello, I am interested in doing the CBO protocol but since it would go through the holiday season I was wondering if you are allowed cheat meals during the protocol. If so, how far in to the protocol are you allowed a cheat meal and how many times a week? Thanks! In good health, Joel Julie: I'm writing in regards to my 83-year old father. He has dementia and suffers from significant cognitive decline and loss of muscle strength and control. He's not wheelchair-bound, but uses a walker full-time and is very unstable. I just listened to podcast #746 on halting/reversing Alzheimers & brain-based aging diseases. I'm wondering if it's too late to help my dad? He's so thin, I'm afraid of major diet changes that would cause him to lose weight but at the same time, I would do anything to help him if there's any hope. Lisa: I have been working out for over 10 years but the past 2 month I have noticed that every day when I go to the gym or even when I use my cybex machine at home I get this post nasal drip down my throat during my workout . What could this be and what do suggest I do for it? Lydia: Hi Dr Cabral - I recently found your podcasts and have been listening and learning. For the last 8 or so years I have done my best to be my own naturopath. I did Dr 30 day incurables cleanse 7 years ago.. I found a great homeopath and also a good naturopath, as well as a functional medicine chiropractor, but none seem to have been able to help me the way I feel you will... I feel such a relief to know that I can find some answers, finally. Thank you so much for you willingness to help those of us who just don't know where else to turn. I took the Big 5 Lab tests you recommended and I am on a hopeful path forward and I thank you for that. My question -I have constricted pupils and have had constricted pupils for around 8 or so years now. I guess I would call them pinpoint. My pupils are always small. When I am in a room with a bright light they are tiny and when I cover them or dim the light I see no change or barely a change. I went to an iridologist and she thinks that this happens when someone has extreme adrenal fatigue. When I did the Big 5 lab tests on 7/9/18, the results did show that my cortisol was: 7.7 morning,1.8 noon, 2.7 evening H1.5 night H. I am currently doing the CBO protocol, I am also taking 2 -Adrenal Soother capsules at lunch and dinner. I went to a optometrist who recommended vision therapy and light therapy, but neither the vision therapy or light therapy (red and green) have helped. Do you think that my constricted pupils may be from my high cortisol levels? If so, should I take anything in addition to the Adrenal Soother? Is there something else that can cause this? Any thoughts or suggestions are most welcome. I realize you can't diagnose or lay out a treatment plan. What would you recommend a member of your family do? thank you . . . with warm regards, Lydia 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/1051 - - - 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.

I believe there's a time and place for every form of medicine in order to help people heal both their body and mind...

1048: How to Overcome Mold Toxicity (The Complete Mold Protocol) (WW)
It's an unfortunate reality that 1 in every 2 homes in the US and the UK (most likely other countries as well) have an unhealthy level of dampness and mold overgrowth... And, the worst part is that most mold toxicity symptoms come from the exposure to invisible mold spores that are floating around in your home or office and land on furniture, pillows, or are directly inhaled... My goal today is to enable you to see why mold toxicity is underdiagnosed in conventional medicine and what symptoms you should be looking for...

1045: Detox Lab, Juvenile Myoclonic Epilepsy, Candida Food List, Hemochromatosis, Switching Probiotics, Chronic Bronchitis, Tele-Meeting, Fluid in Ears, Food Intolerance (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! Megan: I was wondering if you recommend doing particular lab tests before doing your detox? Or Is it okay to just complete the detox at any time? I wasn't sure if you wanted to look at different levels before vs. after the detox. Thanks! Beth: Hi Dr. Cabral! My name is Beth. I'm 25 years young and I have recently, in the past year and a half, been diagnosed with Juvenile Myoclonic Epilepsy (JME). No one in my family has any form of epilepsy that we know of, so this was strange to us. My neurologist has me taking 750mg of Keppra twice a day, once in the morning and then again at night. I have been told that if I plan to have a family in the future, I will have to come off of this medicine because it can be harmful for a baby. He suggested I also take a good folic acid, which I have been doing every day. My question is, is there anything plant based I could take in replacement of this medication, or anything in conjunction with? I have never had a full-blown seizure, I was just having what he called "mini seizures" almost daily, especially when tired. One of these "mini seizures" caused me to drop an eight pound dumbbell on my forehead while lifting weights, and from there having the stitches, EEG, and brain MRI is how I was diagnosed back in 2017. The medication has completely stopped these "twitches" as I called them. Sorry for the long post, just looking for any healthy option here. Thank you for your time. I love listening to your podcasts! Cherie: I am about to start the candida protocol soon. I like to make a salad dressing with flax oil, I usually take a couple tablespoons of apple cider vinegar throughout the day and I also usually drink about 4-8 ounces of unsweetened cranberry juice mixed in my daily water intake throughout the day. Are these three things allowed and if not how should I try to reincorporate them into my diet? Christine: Hi Dr Cabral, I want to thank you for all you do and I'm wondering if you can lead me in the right direction. I am 55 years old, going through menopause, currently on hormone therapy which I know is not the best thing. I also take a compounded thyroid medication-T3, pregnalone, adrenal support, 5 htp, omega 3,probiotic and a daily multivitamin. In addition to all that I use your daily nutritional support shake on a daily basis. My dna testing came back showing I am a carrier for the mthfr gene but also suseptible to hemotomachromosis. I have had one lab result come back with elevated iron before. My question is this, I understand the benefits of vitamin C and how it works in many aspects, anti aging etc etc. My naturapathic dr even said I should take it to help support my adrenals. Also with winter coming I'd like to take it during cold and flu season. But how can this be done safely to avoid elevating my iron levels? Thank you for all you do and I look forward to hearing your reply. Hanna: Are you supposed to switch up your probiotic after a while? Jennifer: Hi Dr. Cabral, I'm a relatively healthy woman in my mid 30's. My diet is ok, though I'd say I have 4-5 cheat meals a week that often include dairy and occasionally gluten (not sure if that is relevant). Once or twice a year over the past few years I will get a lower respiratory cold that I assume to be bronchitis. The coughing is fierce and will typically last a month. My friends and family always push me to go to a doctor to get antibiotics, but most of the research I've done tells me that it is most likely a virus that can't be treated with antibiotics. I take a more holistic approach to health than those around me and would rather treat myself with this approach. Being sick this long takes a toll on my work and pretty much puts me out the entire time I'm sick. 1. At what point do you recommend visiting a doctor if you think you have bronchitis (if at all) and do you think antibiotics are necessary or the best option? 2. Are there supplements or a protocol you'd recommend to treat bronchitis from a more holistic approach? 3. Once you've recovered from bronchitis are there immune supporting supplements or adaptogens you'd recommend taking to keep your body healthy as a preventative? Something you'd take year round or maybe seasonally? Thanks so much for all that you do. I really think your podcast is opening people's eyes up to a whole new approach to health that they didn't know existed. Mackenzie: Hello! I live in Philadelphia and I came across Stephen Cabral's videos on YouTube. I am interested in working with him, does he accept clients via tele-meeting? For reference, I'm a 26 year old female and I've struggled with disordered eating (being both overweight and underweight at different times in my life). I would like to figure out a final solution to my diet and health, as it's been consuming for me. Please feel free to let me know what opportunities I may have with the center! Thank you, Stefanie: Hi Dr. Cabral, A friend of mine introduced me to your CBD Oil and I have had really positive results. I was wondering if it will be available online again at some point? If not, is there another place that it is available? Thanks! Katie: Hi Dr Cabral, I'm writing from Australia and came across your podcast through the gorgeous Melissa Ambrosini and am now devouring every single episode from the start and want to say thankyou for taking the time to read my question. My problem is that I've been dizzy for over a year, I have fluid in my ears and inflammation in my nose and constantly feel pressure in my face and behind my eyes. There is no pain just the dizziness and pressure. I have been back and forth to the doctor with no answers. Im losing hope in ever feeling "normal" and well again which is why I am writing to you and I would love to hear what your advice would be. Thank you so very much. Katie Rebecca: Hi, I have been listening to Dr. Cabral's podcast for the past several months and have found so much value in the content. I have been experiencing some issues that I believe to be food related and am interested in some type of testing to determine the root cause. On several occasions after eating I have experienced severe nausea which sometimes has led to vomiting or diarrhea and on other occasions has passed after several hours of feeling sick. These symptoms usually occur several hours after eating once I lie down to go to bed and are different from what I consider "typical" acid reflex which I have experienced since childhood. On more than one occasion I have experienced nausea after eating food cooked in a smoker such as ribs, pizza and chicken. However, I have also experienced the same symptoms when eating foods cooked by other methods. I have not been able to pinpoint a specific food or spice so I thought that it may be helpful to do food sensitivity testing. I have an allergy to sulfa drugs but no known food allergies. Is this the best test for me to perform or is there another option that you recommend?

1044: Blood Type Vs. Dosha, Meat Only Diet, FM Testing, Mucuna Pruriens, ME Symptoms, Vata Weight Loss, Ear Candling, IgE Desensitization (HouseCall)
HouseCall Intro for Libsyn For Saturday 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: Jake: Hi Dr. Cabral, I have been really getting into your podcasts on Ayurvedic Medicine, and have really been getting into the doshas/body types. I really am seeing some trends amongst friends, family, and myself depending on body type. I have read a lot of the blood type diet and I am wondering if there are any correlations with Ayurvedic Medicine and blood type or the blood type diet? Thank you! Natalie: Hi Dr. Cabral, I'm hearing a lot of banter around the "meat only" diet. People often reference the inuit communities to support the long term efficacy. I would love to hear your perspective. Thank you so much! Natalie Kylie: Hi Stephen and team, I wanted to make enquiries with regards to your functional lab testing and coaching call included and then also your private concierge practice. I have been suffering with chronic illness for a number of years, two years ago I became so unwell I had to stop working and move back home with my family. With a history of gut issues, constipation, candida, bladder infections, eating disorder etc. The year leading up to moving back home, thyroid issues, loss of periods, strepteccocus overgrowth of 96%, liver congestion and my bowel stopped functioning completely on its own. I have tried many things and always learn to a more wholistic natural approach, I have definitely healed in many ways in the last few years but still my bowel requires daily supplements of herbals to function, I have lost a lot of weight due to not absorbing nutrients, I react easily to food and am on restricted foods no grain, limited protein, just fruit and vegetable all fresh and organic, I also react to many supplements and always have to approach with care, I still have thyroid issues and gut issues, and suffer exhaustion as well as nausea, cramping etc. I have been considering getting some of your tests done and was wondering if the cost is in US dollars? I am in Australia. And also the hair mineral analysis test, this doesn't work if you have coloured hair from hair dye does it? I also wanted to ask what tests you find are most beneficial, I was drawn toward the thyroid, and organic acids testing. But wanted to know what is recommended, cost is a consideration for me as well having spent so much on my health. I also wanted to ask re you private coaching and if this is an option how far in advance it is booked out, and is this also US dollars?I have been looking at your supplements and also different protocols, Saccharoyces boulardii I am actually allergic too and have tried in the past can you not use this if you do get testing and suggestions and perhaps something else be offered.Also how does the call work included in the functional lab tests if you are in Australia with time differences? Is it just one call you get?Thanks so much Kylie Darrell: Hey Dr. Cabral. Great show. Thank you for this. It has been a life changer for me, my family & friends. I'm writing from Tobago. I've used your search bar before asking and haven't seen anything on either Mucuna Pruriens or Shilajit. I heard they're both used un ayurvedic medicine. What are their benefits and do you recommend it for say a male in his late 20's (or anyone for that matter). Javier: Dear, Mr. Cabral. This is Javier (24 years old) from Peru - South America. It was hard to find a person that finally understands my symptoms but finally I found you so far from my country. Let's get to the point. Ive been following a Candida Diet for about 3 months at the request of my doctor. I experienced some kind of improvement the first month but I've felt little progress since then. I continue with the same symptoms: strong fatigue, muscular pains, difficulties from just getting up from the chair, walking and any kind of movements; long list of food sensitivities, but the most surprising fact for me is that I have so many difficulties in talking to people and reading and I also get sick very easily and frequently out of nothing. Ive already listened to some of your podcasts and I have run a Organic Acids Test in Great Plains Laboratory whose results will be ready in about 2 weeks. My question is what can I expect from these weird symptoms that have me deeply worried. I'd also love you to tell me what sources of carbohydrates I am allowed to eat during this Candida Cleanse Diet (maybe beets, carrots, sweet potatoes, berries, maca root, low glycemic fruits?), because I've been on a Keto Diet for 3 months and it seems far too long period of time for me since Im practicing weightlifting 4 days in a week (to keep my health and self-confidence up during this difficult times) and my thyroid profile is kind of low according to some blood tests I did a couple of weeks ago specially my T3 levels (1.81 pg/ml) Thank you so much in advance. Sincerely,Javier Sunny: Hi there! I have two questions: I think that I am a Vata-Pitta body type (primarily Vata), and am struggling to lose weight. In your podcast about diet plans, the Vata plan is geared more towards those who lose weight easily, however I need a plan that focuses on losing weight. So, would starches in the morning and grounding foods still be okay on the diet? Can you give more tips for Vata weight loss? Also, Will you be offering the Dosha body type analysis service to listeners? In one of your previous podcasts, you mentioned that we could send in photos for your team to analyze and come back with the correct dosha body type. I would love this! Adrianne: Dr. Cabral, Do you recommend or have any feedback on ear candling? I did it for the first time a couple weeks ago with positive results, but I would appreciate your thoughts. I was surprised it hadn't come up in 900 episodes. I am 37 years young and getting younger everyday, now that I am armed with your knowledge. The concept of removing toxicities, replacing deficiencies, and re-balancing the body, has been transnational for my family! T h a n k y o u ! Anonymous: Hi, Is it possible to get rid of some (or all) IgE food/environmental allergies? I have gone through some of the previous podcasts where you discuss IgG sensitivities going away after healing the gut, but does that apply to IgE reactions as well? I do not have the financial means to get functional medicine lab testing at this time or to see a functional medicine practitioner, but I am curious to know if, in general, IgE allergies can theoretically go away. If it is not possible for IgE allergies to go away, is it okay to eat the foods I'm mildly allergic to (no anaphylaxis) or should they all be avoided because they will increase inflammation? Thank you so much.
