982: Bladder Infection, Mystery Digestive Issues, Low Carb Re-feeding Meal, Candida Testing, Missing Periods, Huntington's Disease (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! Lisa: I have A new challenging situation. I gave up coffee approximately one year ago and started drinking hot herbal green tea. Some caffeinated some not. I also drink a lot of hot lemon water. I drink a lot of hot drinks because my hands are cold. About a month ago I started having frequent urination feelings in my bladder. Pressure but hard to urinate. No bladder infection that I'm aware of. I have a eliminated hot tea and reduced the lemon water but it is still there and very uncomfortable. It appears to show up later in the day as it is not there when I first awake. Any ideas? Thank you! Laura: Hi Dr. Cabral, I recently discovered your podcast and I've been loving it. Your approach to health and wellness is very refreshing. I've followed a vegan diet for the past four years. Lots of vegetables, fruits, grains, and some nuts and seeds. I've suffered with heartburn, chest pain, bloating, and tiredness after I eat for a long time. Going vegan has improved the symptoms a lot, but they haven't completely gone away. I usually never get symptoms after breakfast. It's mainly after lunch or dinner. I've tried eating smaller meals throughout the day and that didn't really help. I've tried eliminating known triggers like tomatoes, garlic, onions, citrus fruits, soy, corn, gluten, and cruciferous vegetables but that didn't help either. I still can't seem to pinpoint what the problem is or what food is the root cause. It's weird because I'll eat a meal one day and feel totally fine and then I eat the same meal another day and I get the symptoms. I don't really know where to go from here, so if you had any suggestions or recommendations that would be great. Thanks so much for all your help! Laura Lisa: Hello Dr Cabral. I have been doing a low carb diet for sometime now which has kept me at a good weight. I am not fat but I would really like to get more tone and build some muscle. I was told carb cycling is a great way to build muscle and lean out but I fear putting carbs back into my diet may bloat me. What's your take on carb cycling and have you seen results with this on someone who has followed a low car diet for so long. Demet: Hi. I am emailing from Australia and i have come across Dr. Stephen Cabral from a podcast that i have recently listened to. I have been battling with chronic health issues for quite a long time now and i am in a very dark place at the moment with no proper answers and treaments. I have been to countless practitioners/ naturopaths about my SIBO, severe candida overgrowth, chronic constipation (1-2 bowel movements p/w), lots of gut related issues, PCOS, Amennorhea, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Bipolar disorder, depression anxiety and other mental health challenges. I have tried so many different things and protocols, supplements etc but nothing has lasted long term. I am started to become frightened at the idea that i may not be able to have some quality of life. mind due i am only a 26 year old female. I am really losing hope and i feel extremely overwhelmed about all the conflicting information out there and really need some guidance and support. I believe that my digestive system is the 1st place to begin however i am very reluctant to try any other product or protocol again. I would like to find out more information on the Candida and Bacterial overgrowth cleanse protocol. How does it work? Do i need to work with a practitioner in order use it? What if it doesn't resolve my issues? Do the supplements contain animal products or alcohol? Can you ship to Australia, if so, how long would it take and what about the preservation of the probiotics? I am also chronically constipated and have only 1-2 bowel motions per week, would this protocol help with that? I would truly appreciate your clarity on all of my questions. kindest regards, Demet. Ida: Hi! I'm 23 years old woman and have had a long anorexia in my teens. Due to I'm living healthy and I have balanced weight I haven't gotten my periods back. The sad story is that I have had periods only once in my lifetime and I'm quite worried about it. Can you recommend some lifestyle/diet changes or tests? Lisa: I'm writing on behalf of a friend who has Huntington's. (Huntington's disease is a fatal hereditary neurodegenerative disorder that is characterized by progressively worsening motor, cognitive, behavioral, and psychiatric symptoms). He is in Stage 1, confirmed by genetic testing. He is 55, overall heathy lifestyle (no smoking, drinking). Diet is Standard American Type Diet. No regularly exercise. I believe he is open to specific supplementation IF it came from a credible doctor such as yourself or research studies but I haven't found anything. Is there anything, other than the Nutritional Daily Support and Daily Fruit/Veggie Blend that would help him? Would you recommend any tests? Whatever you say I will share with the family and or have them listen to this podcast. Thank you Dr. Cabral.

981: Neck Pain, Child OCD, Supplement Suggestions, Candida Foods, Brain Injuries, Iodine & Hashimoto's, IBS Doctor, RA Detox (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: Amanda: Hi Dr Cabral. I have been dealing with nerve pain in my neck. When the pain is the worst, it feels like my neck is on fire. I started with physical therapy and then started going to the chiropractor. He did an X-ray and said my neck is curving the wrong way, so the nerves are protecting my neck which is causing the pain. I've also tried working out, yoga, getting massages and have adjusted how I sit at work. The adjustment once a week (I can't afford to go more than that) is no longer helping. The whole process has been going on for two years and I'm getting very frustrated that I've seen no improvement. I don't know what to do, do you have any recommendations? Madeleine: Hi Dr. Cabral Someone told me about your podcast recently, and I'm feeling hopeful (for the first time) that maybe there is a solution. My 9 year old son has always had high anxiety and has been a little funny about germs and certain sensory things (he will not eat meat that is touching a bone). This past year, however, he has started exhibiting more severe signs of OCD including intrusive and unwanted thoughts. He has always been a negative thinking kid, too (just for more background). Background on his health: He had a typical delivery, but I was unable to breastfeed so he did not have any breastmilk or colostrum. He did have antibiotics and vaccines, but not excessively. He had mono when he was 5 that was misdiagnosed for the first 2 months. He has always had very bad allergies. He has those dark circles under his eyes where he looks like he has a black eye. About 3 months ago we removed his tonsils and adenoids (his allergies have been significantly better), and they have mostly disappeared and his allergies are so much better. Also, about the same time his OCD kicked into gear he developed a stereotypy. Whenever he gets excited he balls his fist in front of his crotch and tenses...when it's really intense he wiggles his hands. The doctors have called it primary complex motor stereotypy and said it's nothing to worry about. I find it distressing, but not nearly as disturbing as his intrusive OCD thoughts and anxiety. Finally, as a last piece of the puzzle his younger brother has had a severe stereotypy since he was 2 years old. It sometimes develops into a very complex set of motions that resemble tics. He also makes a repetitive vocal sound when doing his stereotypy (sort of like a machine gun but higher) We did a gluten free, casein free, soy free, processed sugar free diet with few processed foods (cassava flour, brown rice flour, almond butter were the primary parts) for 5 weeks and saw a reduction in my younger sons tics/stereotypy but they did not go away. My older son had no change. Now we're very low dairy, lower gluten (bread once or twice a week), and still few processed foods but more than before. My youngest sons tics are getting worse again, and my oldest sons OCD/intrusive thoughts are terrible. He is inhibiting his movements because he knows they bother me (although I try not to show it) . FInally my actual question - do you have protocol for kids? Does he have a diet restriction list/plan with it? Is it the Candida protocol I should go for? Or would i need to schedule an appointment? Thanks for reading - I'm so desperate to help them and I do not want to medicate my older son for OCD. Doctors say there is nothing to be done for the stereotypy but I feel like there might be a cause. Carlos: What is the recommended daily dose of HEALTHY BELLY to help eradicate h pylori? How many capsule per day and should they be taken while fasted? Cassi: Hi Dr. Cabral - thank you so much for the time and dedication you take to getting so much information out! I am currently on the CBO protocol and following your diet plan. However, my friend is a nutritionist and received her degree from Bastyr University, which is highly regarded in the "naturopathic world" and I know you have mentioned this university on your podcasts before as well. She send me the candida diet plan from Bastyr, which she was taught during school. My question comes from this - the diet plan seems to be almost completely different from yous and I'm curious why. What are your thoughts on this? For example, they highly recommend garlic stating, "Garlic has been found to have anti-Candida activity. Use freely in food and cooking, or consider taking a garlic supplement." The vegetable recommends onions, cabbage & cauliflower freely. The food recommendation included apples and pears and says to limit bananas, mangoes and pineapple. Of course everyone agrees on no alcohol & refined sugars. Can you explain why your diet recommendation has come to be so different? I'm curious to understand to help me formulate my long-term diet to maintain the best results. Thank you again!! Ariana: Hi dr Cabral, My boyfriend suffered a traumatic brain injury ( concussion) about 4 years ago and hasn't even able to recover. He's tried anti depressants and they either made it worse, or did nothing at all. He had MRIS done and his neck and back are not injured. Before the concussion, he was on anti biotics for 1 year and Acutane. As a child, he was on anti biotics for a year and had a tube in his ear I believe because of recurring ear infections. After discovering your podcast I figured he probably had Candida overgrowth. He's currently doing your CBO protocol but says it makes him feel worse. He tried EFT tapping and meditation to no avail. He is hopeless, and I really wish I could help him but I am out of ideas. Kristin: Hi There, I am looking for a little direction and advise. I think it is best to give you a little background info. I have had a shortened menstrual cycle my whole life every 2-3 weeks. When I was about 25/26 I figured out that if I take vitamin D3 my menstrual cycle tends to even out and is closer to a 28-day cycle. I am now 40 years old. At 35 got pregnant for the first time. The baby had mosaic Edwards Syndrom and because of multiple deformities and "markings" with brain/heart/facial structure, we chose to end the pregnancy. It was a very hard time both physically and emotionally. Fast forward a year, we were having problems getting pregnant again so my doctor ran some blood tests. My TSH was at 39.48 mcIU/mL, tested again 4 weeks later and it was down to 8.57 mcIU/mL & Free T4 was 1.0ng/dL. A couple of days later, I found out that I was pregnant for the second time. My doctor put me on Levothyroxine and we didn't look any further into my Thyroid because keeping my numbers in range was important for my pregnancy. During my pregnancy, I had gestational diabetes, was on insulin a little later on in the pregnancy and I had a circumvallate placenta, which I believe is unrelated. I was induced a week early and we now have a 20-month-old happy, healthy boy. In that 3 year span, my body went through a lot hormonally. After my second pregnancy, I was tested for autoimmune markers and found that I had Hashimoto's. I am still on Levothyroxine and my primary care physician seems to have no interested in helping me navigate getting off of it, or giving me nutritional guidance. We have made the decision to try for a second baby. Very exciting and very scary for me at this time. I am 40, am a Personal Trainer & Manage 2 gym locations. My energy hasn't ever gotten back to where it should be since my first pregnancy. My son is now old enough and has been sleeping through the night since 6mos... I feel like I should have bounced back by now. Current symptoms that I have: Feeling tired, Brain fog, Sometimes puffiness, Achy Joints, Throat irritation - almost like it is hard to swallow - it is hard to describe the feeling. Sometimes a burning mouth/tingling tongue I've been trying to figure out if all of these symptoms are from being busy and unable to workout and take care of myself as well as I would like at this time or if my hormones/thyroid are out of whack. Would love some advice & direction on a few things: I am the sole provider for my family and we are on a pretty strict budget at this time. Where would you suggest I start in attempts at getting my system balanced and feeling good. I am confused about iodine & Hashimoto's. Chlorella & Spirulina are great for removing heavy medals but aren't you suppose to avoid if you have Hashimoto's? If I do become pregnant soon, would focusing one a healthy, plant-based diet be my best bet? Are there foods that you would suggest I avoid? Ok... lots of questions and probably too much info but I am loving all of your podcasts and your philosophy really aligns with my personal approach to health and wellness. Thanks so much for your time. Yours in health, Kristin Kendra: Hi, I heard Dr. Cabral on a podcast and am very interested in working with him or receiving referrals. I've dealt with IBS, chronic stomach pain, and digestive issues my whole life. I have never seen a functional medicine practitioner and I think it would be worthwhile. What are his fees? And do you have any referrals in the Los Angeles area? Thank you! Laimute: Hello, I would like to ask you about rheumatoid arthritis. My mum has rheumatoid arthritis for many years. A year ago she gave up with meat, dairy products, white flour, sugar. I'm going to take her to India for 15 days panchakarma treatment as I've heard that it would help her to get rid of toxins that causes arthritis followed by a natural ayurvedic medicines for up to a year. My question is what is the different between panchakarma and Dr. Cabral detox as both of them clean toxins from the body? Also would you suggest anything else to add to treat rheumatoid arthritis along with panchakarma treatment?Many thanks, Laimute 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! - - - Specific Show Notes & Resources: http://StephenCabral.com/981 - - - 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.

979: Ayurvedic Supplement Balancing Protocols (TT)

When many people think of natural health in ancient healing, they overlook the fact that nutritional supplements have been used from the earliest human recorded history... This isn't something that I truly comprehended until I had the opportunity to study overseas in countries such as China, India, and Sri Lanka and discovered how they recommended using certain supplements in order to rebalance the body… The trick is knowing when to use which supplements for what imbalance and at what dosage and for how long… Tune into today's #CabralConcept 979 for all the details on Ayurvedic supplement balancing protocols – Enjoy the show! - - - - Specific Show Notes & Resources: http://StephenCabral.com/979 - - - 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.

978: How Stress Shuts Down Female Hormones & Fertility (WW)

In the past, I've shared how multiple environmental and internal stressors begin to slow a person's thyroid in a very predictable manner… However, it's not quite as known how those same toxins and stressors can also begin to dysregulate a woman's hormones and create a multitude of symptoms… Those symptoms--which appear as lower mood, fatigue, skin issues, infertility, headaches, and other health issues--actually have their imbalance in something called the HPO Axis… Today on#CabralConcept 978, I will explain in real-world terms how many women across the world are dealing with dysregulated hormones and have never been told where they are coming from-Enjoy the show! - - - Specific Show Notes & Resources: http://StephenCabral.com/978 - - - 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.

Do you have suggestions for ways to rebalancing energy and neurotransmitters after discontinuing ADD medications? I have inattentive type ADD and have been on Adderall for the last 8 years. I got sick of the worsening depression, mood swings, and low energy and read about the long term effects of the medication and have since tapered off of it. I feel somewhat improved after starting on Wellbutrin and L-tyrosine in the AM but would love to hear your thoughts. I don't want to be on an antidepressant forever. Also, if you can recommend any books or other resources on neurotransmitters/ADD I'd appreciate them! I work in the ER and love reading research and learning! Thanks so much! Tara: Hi Dr. Cabral, In recent years I've been learning a lot about holistic approaches to wellness. Since discovering your podcast a month ago, this journey has been expedited. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge! I'm in my 30's and since having my second child, I've struggled with bad ache. It seems to be hormonal, as it increased with my menstrual cycle (which has also become much heavier and painful). I tried many natural remedies with no success, before going to the dermatologist who prescribed birth control and a topical gel called Veltin (generic for Ziana). I've been on it for 5 months and it has worked very well in clearing my skin. However, I'd really like to stop taking these drugs if possible. Besides the acne, my other major "dis-ease" is plantar fasciitis that won't go away after 7 months of resting, wrapping, icing, and stretching per my orthopedists recommendation (she wants to start Cortisone shots next, which I don't want). I like to stay fit and work out 5-6 days a week. I'm currently on Day 5 (of 7) of the DCD and would like to run some labs afterwards to determine the underlying problems, address them, and maximize my health. What would you suggest? Thank you! Maxine: i have had a chronic cough for almost 5 years, starts off as a dry cough, then get productive and I'm have to spit out phlegm, when I blow my nose in the morning there is greenish color mucus. Any advice how to cure it. I was told it was due to nerve and I should take Lyrica, I've seen ENT, pulmonologist and no relief Adrian: Hi Dr Cabral! I am a 32 years old Personal trainer from Norway. I stables on to your website, and listened to some of your podcasts, and found out you are the guy i should talk to! I was taking 3x1g Amoxilin for 100 days for my Modic changes In my lower back. My symptoms now is twitching muscles, anxious, flat mood, cold fingers, internal «rage» In my nervous system, extreme tierdness In afternoon, and full Body stiffness and pain, especially ln the morning. I also seem to Get arthritis In my fingers. It can be better for a few days, then it comes back. Can'tfind a pattern with histamine or other foods. i took some blood tests But came back normal. Please Dr.Cabral tell me Where to start. My doctor is as Always without suggestions. And if there is an answer to my problems i would be so happy to be my self around my little family again. Tanya: Hi Doctor Cabral, Finding your podcasts ( through a Melissa Ambrosini podcast ) has been the best thing ever. I could listen to you all day. Actually that is what I'm trying to do, get through all the past podcasts. I have a question about Marine collagen, here in Australia it is very big at the moment. What are your thoughts on taking this daily as suggested on the pack? My thoughts for taking this is for bone/joints support as I have a scoliosis and deterioration between the disks around my neck/shoulder area. The past year it seems to have become worse with a pretty constant pain radiating down and across my right shoulder and arm. I am looking to support bone health. It is affecting my yoga practice also. I don't have dairy other than the occasional cheese and take D3 daily, recommended by my doctor after blood tests. I have started adding Vit k with 4& 7 in it. I also have a very dry scalp mainly around the hairline. I am 48 years old and never suffered in the past. It is ok for the first day of washing but the next it starts to flake. What are your suggestions for this? Keep up the fantastic work, I love that you are forever educating us on health and wellbeing from your heart. Alice: I am extremely allergic to ascorbic acid. My tongue swells and upsets stomach. Will any of your cleanses ok for me? - - - Specific Show Notes & Resources: http://StephenCabral.com/975 - - - 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.

974: Multiple Food Sensitivities, Better Milk, Hair Test, Getting Off Keto; Lead Test, Yeast Detox, Red Heads, Oxidation Rate, Blasto Antiobitic Backlash (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: Vivienne: Hi there! I've got multiple food sensitivities at the moment, salicylates, oxalates, histamine and amine issues, plus can't seem to manage sulphur based compounds particularly well either. I'm eating a very limited diet and doing okay but don't think this is sustainable longer term. How do you go about helping someone recover when they're sensitive to such a wide range of foods? What labs would I need to get also to get started. Tori Longie: hello! i am new to the podcast and absolutely loving it! i just listed to episode #185, after listening to #880 =) i have a question about milk, i am weening my son from breast milk and always have been taught to mix breast with whole milk to ween, would you do the same with almond milk? Pat: Hi Dr. Cabral, Can a bald person get the hair tissue mineral analysis done using hair from other parts of his body (like his chest), or does it need to come from the head? Thank you for spreading such useful, life-saving info through you podcast! Gina: Dear Stephen, I believe my body is sick due to years being on a restrictive Keto diet. I went to hypnosis and only eat meat and vegetables. Now I can lose weight. I am always bloated, have gas, stomach distress. I always get Charlie horses and always have post nasal drip. BUT I can't afford all the tests you suggest taking. What do I do ???? I am about 30 pounds overweight and I'm so afraid to get off keto even though I'm stuck in my weight loss. I don't know where to begin. I appreciate your feedback. Thank you. Gina Anne: Hi Dr Cabral, I recently found out that the water where I grew up and where my family lives is very high in lead. We use a Brita water filter, but because its New York City ( which has a reputation for having great Tap water) we weren't diligent... What can I do? should I focus on a liver detox or straight to heavy metals? Can i do both at once? help! Nichole: Hi Dr. I suspect that I have been dealing with candida overgrowth for the past 1-2 years. Although, I have been diagnosed with hypothyroidism but medications have not helped. I wanted to know what the best way to treat candida overgrowth is. Would your 7-day detox help with something like that? Thank You, Nichole Sammy: Hi Dr Cabral I came across you through Jay Ferruggia's podcast and have since listened to all of your podcasts and am halfway through reading the rain barrel effect. Appreciate all of the free information that you put out to help people live their healthiest and best lives. Being an extremely pale skinned/red head living in Australia where the sun and UV levels are quite high did you have any thoughts on using peptides to protect from the sun? Or the supplement Anaxanthin? I'm converting to organic sunscreen from regular sunscreen as you've reccomdnded although do find it to be very thick and 'cloggy'. Thanks in advance. Morgan: Hi Dr. Cabral! I was wondering if you could explain the fast, slow, and mix oxidizer from the hair tissue mineral analysis (HTMA) test and the significance of this marker. What are the diet and lifestyle differences that are best for each of these? Could the oxidizer type change as you start to heal (ex. if you are a slow oxidizer showing signs of stress on the HTMA and you follow your protocol and improve, would the oxidizer type change)? Thanks so much for all your all of your help! Emma: Hi, About a year ago I got blastocystis homonis and went on intense antibiotics to get rid of it which worked but ever since I got the blasto my stomache hasnt been the same. I find myself often severly bloated and sensitive to a lot of foods and well as a lack of energy. Ive been doing a low fodmap diet for a while and i find that helps but still my stomache is not what it used to be. I was wondering if there was a test you would recommend for me to do so I can figure out whats going on and get back to how I used to be and feel.
