2781: Safety of Sweeteners, SIBO Protocol, Histamine Intolerance, Root Cause of Pericarditis, Multi-Vitamin with Iodine, Black Garlic (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…   Natalie: I am interested to know Dr Cabral’s thoughts on the safety of sweeteners like Stevia and Monk Fruit? Monk fruit especially is increasingly showing up in food and supplements and it’s very difficult to find information online about it.   Stacey: Hello, I was recently diagnosed with SIBO and I am wondering what protocol you recommend. I am also breastfeeding Thank you Stacey   Hannah: My question is relating to an ongoing histamine intolerance. I’ve done the 21 day detox, CBO, 2 months CBO finisher, heavy metal & mold detoxes, two more 7 day liver detoxes, and the parasite protocol. Each protocol was helpful but the parasite protocol (I completed 8-wks) is where I saw the most help with my histamine intolerance. It is significantly better than before that protocol in particular, but I can only handle small amounts of high histamine or histamine liberating foods. I get muscle twitches, sour stomach after eating highly acidic fruits such as oranges/berries, my right foot feels weak/like I’m limping, my right ankle swells up especially with beer, and I get stuck burps/trapped air in between and during meals. I also have a persistent scalloped tongue. Any advice?   Anonymous: Hello Dr. Cabral, I am an IHP Level 2 and RN and appreciate all the work you do and the course you made. I'm slowly chipping away on protocols as it seems I have symptoms of everything. That being said I have a history of recurrent incessant pericarditis resulting in a Pericardiectomy in 2021. My surgeon said this should have gotten rid of the pain - it has prevented me from being hospitalized again but I do still experience pain when stressed and sometimes around the heart when taking deep breaths. Additionally I struggle with a lot of jaw /neck pain. I'm looking for any advice or expertise around addressing pericarditis at the root cause as I know that these symptoms are probably still related to the pericarditis that was only addressed by surgery and not at the root.   Rozita: Dear Dr.Cabral,I’ll try to be short. Diagnosed w/ Hashimoto’s 3 weeks ago.Tsh,Ft4,Ft3- normal,TPO -900.Also,thyroid nodules diagnosed in2004. I am taking Se,Zn,D3, Mg,Turmeric,VitB complex,Vit A,VitE, and a Multivitamin for seniors, that has Iodine 150mcg.Question: should I continue to take the Multivitamin w/ the included Iodine? Thank you very much for the answer. You are the Best! I live by Your videos and recommendations. Kind regards! Rozita 73 yr,   Anonymous: Hi! I see black garlic in recipes a lot lately and also hear about its benefits but.. it’s charred garlic, no? Is it healthy or not and why?   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 and Resources: StephenCabral.com/2781 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral’s Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?

2780: Spermadine, Long-Term Melatonin Use, Ascorbic Acid & Acid Reflux, Natural Ecdysteroids & Hormones, Ramsay Hunt Syndrome (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:    Kim: Thoughts on spermadine?   Erin: Hi Dr. Cabral! Thanks for all of your insight! Thoughts on long term melatonin use affecting your body's ability to produce the hormone naturally?   Jessica: When it comes to ascorbic acid and acid reflex, safe to take? How does this work out? I would love to understand more.   Anthony: Hi Doc, a huge thank you for the time and effort you invest into guiding us listeners in simple adaptations we can make to lead longer and cleaner lives. I'm closing in on 40 years of age and I've been an avid gym goer for 20+ years. Typically with weight training 4 days a week and a 20 minute walk everyday, having always struggled to gain weight, I was looking to put on some muscle mass and tried turkesterone and laxogenin together starting at half the recommended dose of each. After 6 weeks I noticed I was reaching personal best strength and as a result had gained almost 4lbs, sleep quality was better too. Unfortunately I broke out in quite bad acne on my back. Could these products effect hormones? I was under the impression natural ecdysteroids don't impact hormone levels. Thanks.   Luke: I’m wondering if there is anything that I can remedy from an underlying perspective for Ramsay hunt syndrome. I know antivirals do work but they don not stop the constant ringing in the ears. Any help would be appreciated. Love what you’re doing!

Leaky gut syndrome refers to the increased permeability of your intestinal wall.    When your intestines become more permeable it can lead to a wide variety of issues.    One of the concerning factors when your gut becomes more permeable is the presence of Lipopolysaccharides (LPS), which are bacterial toxins that can lead to health problems if they enter the bloodstream.   So on today's #CabralConcept 2776, I'll discuss the 11 signs you may have leaky gut syndrome and go over what steps you can take toward healing.

2775: What We Think About We Bring About (MM)

Our predominant focus in life often determines the outcomes we experience.    Research has revealed that our reticular activating system amplifies what we spend the most time concentrating on.    Unfortunately, without conscious effort, many of our emotionally charged thoughts tend to be negative.    However, with some minor adjustments, we can reshape our perspective and create positive change.    Tune in to today's #CabralConcept 2775 to explore how the concept of "what we think about, we bring about" can be harnessed to create your dream life - Enjoy the show, and let me know what you thought!   - - - For Everything Mentioned In Today's Show: StephenCabral.com/2775 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral’s Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review 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:    Joesph: Hi dr cabral im asking this question for a family member. She had a small growth on her leg that looked like a wart when she went to the doctor they put acid on it to remove it but she ended up getting a blister the size of a dime when that healed it’s now a brown spot is there anything to make the brown spot go away thank you   Jackie: xanthelasma. What is it? Can I get rid of it on my eyelid? Also how to prevent it. And is it true it's a sign of heart disease? Sorry for multiple questions. Very nervous when Google is involved. Looking for root caused, and protocol on how to reverse or prevent safely. Already asked on group messages, referred back to you.   Lara: Hi, dr. Cabral.. I started incorporating apple cider vinegar while drinking my 1L of lemon water and between protocol supplements and the probiotic in the mornings.. It’s before I consume any food since the (currently parasite) protocol supplements and probiotic have to be taken on an empty stomach.. After I drink ACV or even when I use fire cider (since it’s predominantly ACV) I usually get really lightheaded, have a weird feeling around the eyes (slight headache even) and slightly itchy cheeks and sometimes also a weird feeling in the stomach (heavy, some blunt pressure or even slight pain).. What could be the reason for it? What am I doing wrong? If you could please explain how it work a little bit so I could understand it a bit more and change something.. thank you so much!   Spencer: Hello Dr. Cabral Sorry for the long message, but wanted to include the details. I’m 32 year old male. Have been sick for a decade now. Have homozygous COMT and het MTHFR. Have elevated fungal markers on my OAT and never have any of the beneficial bacteria (lactobacillus and bifido) on my gut tests. Told I Have CIRS. Tried the cbo earlier this year followed by 1 month of the cbo finisher without results, but I was under a lot of stress while doing it ( floating bms, burpy after eating, dry skin, shakey without starch and meat meals, hair falling out, low T3, high SHBG on labs). Wondering what you suggest should be my next approach. Was going to run the big 5 plus the gut a parasite test and work with one of your coaches, but would like your opinion on things. Thanks   Heather: Would love to ask u about biotin - I recently came off it for a week or two and I needed to go back on - the body tingling was terrible and I started to feel anxiety bad and my circulation seems to be off as well . Is it possible biotin could balance a person ? Would a dr order a b7 test ??   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 and Resources: StephenCabral.com/2773 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral’s Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?
