2894: How & When to Sprint the Marathon of Life (MM)

2893: Consuming Salt, Root Cause of Constipation, Brain & Mood Supplements, Japanese Detox Patches, Is Oatmeal Healthy (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… Anonymous: Hi Dr. Cabral. How much salt should I consume while recovering from adrenal fatigue? I understand it’s individual, however, can you give some general guidelines? For an example, how much salt did you consume to each meal when you had full-blown Addison's disease? I have listen to your podcast about salt. You recommend salt to taste, I appreciate that tips, but if I do so, it’s like there is no limit for me and I end up over-eating salt. I get puffy in the face, stiff muscles and feeling discomfort overall. Right now I’m eating a teaspoon to each meal. My body tolerates this amount okay. But I could easy eat 1 tablespoon each meal to satisfy my salt-cravings. However then I get the “salt over-eating” symptoms. Salt gives me so much energy! Have a great day! Kelsey: Hello! I have tried many types of diets to help my constipation throughout the years- low fiber, high fiber, paleo, AIP. I have it when I’m just eating normal unhealthy foods and when my diet is super clean. I take magnesium daily. What else could I do to help this? What could be root cause? The only time I haven’t had this issue was when I was in France. I had bowel movements very regularly. Jenna: If you had to choose 1 or 2 supplements to take that can help quiet fearful recurring thoughts what would that be? I really need help quieting my amygdala Lara: Hi, dr. Cabral.. What do you think about the Japanese detox patches? There’s a company called Bandoo that sells these foot patches that are supposed to pull toxins out of your body through the soles of your feet at night.. the patch could be very dark after the first night but then after 10 or so, it could be clear already.. could you please look into it if it really does any good? Thank you for your help, happy healing to everyone Aleksandra: Dear teacher, can you please demystify it once for ever - oatmeal or no oatmeal? I know from the course that you are not necessarily against it, but m curious why some biohackers are againt it. Ptytic acid and glucose spike.... So client on weight loss should stay away from it i guess. But id like to hear more of your explanation to meke some kind of conclusion on it.

2892: Animal Protein & Liver Health, Bromelain & Hives, Sauna & Low Sodium & Potassium, Ear Pain, Melatonin & Fasting (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: Stefanie: I am happy to have come so far with my health journey with your help, podcast and all the information you kindly give out to us, a big thank you! I have been able to control my psoriasis and overall skin problems. I've done a few detox, and the cbo protocol which helped me tremendously but I still see some signs of liver problems. I don't eat meat for the most part, but when I do specially meat from another country I notice my one psoriasis skin spot will start to flare and I do feel somewhat my liver swollen. I have been checked out before on sonograms and liver seems to be 'healthy', although I can cut animal protein. I wanted to know what test to perform or how can I fix this once and for all? I am certain its the animal protein, as soon as I eat it I feel the flare the next day. Sheila: Hello,I’m on week 3 of CBO protocol. I just started week 3 and I started getting hives on my legs. One ingredient is bromelain in the Candida supplement. Bromelain is a “red” on my IGg food sensitivity test. Is there another product I could use instead of this one? Please advise. Thank you for your time. Sheila Erica: If I have a 2 high 2 low pattern on my HTMA test, would you recommend infrared sauna 4-5x a week? I have high levels of mold in my body and I’d like to start working on detoxing it out, but it seems like my sodium and potassium and both quite low and I’m wondering if it’s a good idea. With that being said, if I did sauna that much a week, how much sodium / potassium might you recommend I take daily to replenish? Thank you! Brittany: Hi Stephen, A few months back, I had strep and simultaneously coronavirus NL63. (Yay to school germs coming home from my kindergartner) during this diagnosis I went to the hospital because not only did I have bad congestion, but my ears were in so much pain I couldn’t even try to sleep. They treated me with meds for strep and ibuprofen for ear pain. The ear pain has improved since but 3 months later my ears still hurt on a daily basis, not excruciating, but enough to bother me during the day. I went to a ENT and he said it’s my TMJ. I’ve had TMJ and never had ear pain from it, it’s interesting that my ear pain only started when I had bad congestion from strep and the virus. My hearing test came back fine. Any clue why it could be that my ears still hurt? I’m desperate for help! Daniel: Hi Dr. Cabral, Big fan of your show and thanks for all you do. I recently ordered your melatonin, I noticed that it includes Apple Juice, Red Currant, and Stevia. As someone who intermittently fasts multiple times a week, I'm wondering if taking Equilife Melatonin is breaking my fast due to these incredients? Thanks!
