The Cabral Concept

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… Kim: Long time client of your IHPs. I have done a ton of work and made overall improvements in my health. However i work with a functional medical doctor to manage my hashimotos. Diagnosed age 14 currently 48. Been on your thyroid support protocol. What are your thoughts on adding t2? I'm currently on a combination of 137 Tirosent and 5mcg cytomel. I'm a non converter of t4 to t3 (high reverse t3 always). Did stress protocols etc work on sleeping which helps. Ironically my dr has never heard of supplementing with t2!! Anonymous: Hi Dr Cabral, I have a question regarding Calcium Carbonate. I heard in podcast 1177 that you do not recommend this form of Calcium, yet I noticed that it's in the Alkalizing Vitamin C powder. Can you please elaborate on whether it is safe to take it in this supplement or not? Thanks Kristin: Hi, Thank you for all of your education! I know there is a lot of information out there. I appreciate how your natural health recommendations are backed by evidence for their safety and effectiveness! I am hearing about ingesting Borax in small dosages mixed with water as a method of rebalancing toxicities including boron mineral deficiency, supporting with Candida bacterial overgrowth and heavy metal detoxing amongst others. My understanding is it also acts as a biofilm disruptor. Are you familiar with this practice and what are your thoughts about the safety and effectiveness of this practice? Is there a place for borax in a rebalancing protocol? Thank you! Inga: Thank you Dr. Cabral for all your help and knowledge. I listen to your podcast all the time! So I have been having a more rapid heart rate when I drink alcohol. It started a year ago and would happen when I had a stronger drink or later in the night. Now it's happening every time I have a drink no matter the time or the percent of alcohol.. I have usually a drink or two on the weekends. I have currently stopped drinking. I'm fairly healthy, I work out 5 days a week. I eat lots of vegetables and good protein. I try to not eat a lot of sugar and have a cup of coffee a day .. both of my grand mothers had pacemaker so the rapid heart rate scares me .. any thoughts you have on this would be greatly appreciated! Thank you so much for your knowledge and kindness Scott: Hello Dr. Cabral! I had a question about bladderwrack. I first heard about it on the 'Survivorman' show when he was in surviving in Alaska. It was said that it had many nutrients and protein in it. I was wondering if you had any knowledge of it and or experience in any of the internships you were in? I see that there are some supplements online. I tend to be a google-skeptic when reading about these supplements, the good, and their side effects. Could too much bladderwrack overload you with heavy metals since it comes from the sea? I trust your knowledge and experience above all. Thanks for all that you do…Ayubowan!

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: Stacy: Hi Dr. Cabral I hope you are having a Blessed day . I have dysautonomia/POTS . I did the Big 5 and other labs over year and half ago . Worked with a coach , did several protocols ect . I. Have improved some but the sensory overload/ SEVERE Anxiety is still there . It's even stopped me from attending church and social events. I feel as though I'll have a seizure due to the over stimulation. I've exhausted all avenues besides SSRIs and my spinal issues from an ATV accident where I landed on head & neck . I have lots of issues with it but terrified to have my neck adjusted due to strokes that can occur . Do you think the dysautonomia could be from my cervical spine ? I'm at a loss of what to do besides possible surgery or SSRIs and I really don't want to do either but I've been suffering long Annalize: I'm a healthy 47-year-old woman 6.0 ft tall 165 lb. I've struggled with recurrent vaginal yeast infections since high school, trying various treatments. I worked with a Clinical Nutritionist, adopting a paleo diet, my Candida tests were negative, and the infections persisted. I completed the Functional Medicine Detox and CBO protocol. My daily routine includes Fruit and Vegetable blend and Daily Nutritional Support, along with a healthy diet and lifestyle choices. We've been married 23 years, no STDs, 3 children. I'm open to any recommended tests or changes to my routine, as this ongoing issue is becoming increasingly frustrating. Your assistance is greatly appreciated! Lindsay: Hello, Does stevia cause fertility problems? An influencer recently posted something along the lines of tribes used to use it as birth control?! Alicja: Hi Dr. Cabral, I hope you are doing well and having a great day. Two years ago my blood work showed I had Hashimoto and hypothyroidism. I listen to your podcasts, I took your course about Thyroid, I implemented now foods to my diet, did heavy metal detox, made some changes and have been doing all the right things. My TSH numbers went lower over time, then fell into a healthy range, but my last labs showed my TSH being very low, it went down to 0.3. Does that mean that I went from hypothyroidism to hyperthyroidism? Also my anty-TPO are ok (very low) but I have still elevated anty-TG. What does that indicate now? Do I still have Hashimoto or is it Graves now? Thank you in advanced for clarifying that for me. You always are a big help! Conny: Hi Doctor Cabral, Thanks so much for all the wonderful work you're doing. You've truly changed my life with all the great health information. I have a question about waking up hungry at 4am. I think it might be low blood sugar, because I do circadian fasting and my last meal is around 3 or 4pm. Is there anything I can take before bed to stabilize my blood sugar without breaking my fast? Thanks so much!

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… Darren: Good day Dr Cabral. What are your thoughts on recommendations for men to take low doses of Cialis daily? I'm seeing it recommended in the health and fitness sphere by different people in the know including Dr Andrew Huberman, Dr Rena Malek, Jay Ferruggia etc. There are claims of it helping with overall physical fitness/performance, heart health etc. Any drawbacks or is it something you definitely do not recommend. Melissa: Hi Dr. Cabral - I wanted to ask if you can provide the correct technique to use for lymphatic drainage using a dry brush on your body and a gua sha tool on your face and neck. Many people on YouTube say different things regarding technique and I'm not sure what to follow. I know in the Rain Barrel Effect it says to lead the strokes for dry brushing to your heart but a video I found from a certified Lymphodema physical therapist said to direct strokes to your lymph nodes (such as toward your arm pits) as opposed to just the heart. What are your thoughts? I just want to be sure I'm doing it as effectively as possible. Any tips for gua sha for face and neck would be great as well. Also, is using the dry brush safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding? Thank you so much! Elizabeth: Hi, Dr. Cabral! I have suffered from dry nose sores for years (literally years!). There have been a couple of times when I had staph infection so bad in my nose that it felt like somebody had punched me! The ONLY time that the sores went away was when I had covid (plus a few weeks after). Because they went away when I had covid, I thought it had something to do with immunity. HOWEVER, I am happy to report that ever since I have been fasting for at least 12 hours/day (and nearly immediately since I have started fasting), the nose sores are COMPLETELY gone. After YEARS of struggling day-in-and-day-out, they are now GONE! Can you please explain why fasting has had such a positive effect? I can't tell you how grateful I am to not have to deal with the discomfort anymore. Dana: Hi Dr. Cabral, I asked in the Facebook group for resources on Patulous Eustachian tube dysfunction and it looks like you've never done a podcast on it before. I've been dealing with this most of my life and am curious if you have any information and insight on it. I know it can be triggered by exercise and weight loss, both of which I've experienced. I have learned to deal with it but it is inconvenient so I wanted to ask about it. Thanks! Ashley: Hi Dr. Cabal, I first want to say thank you for sharing so much of your knowledge. It has really helped me on my health journey and I have gained valuable knowledge from your podcasts. My question is regrading estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone. What are the true healthy level ranges in females and males? I feel like you spoke about this before but for the life of me cannot find that podcast. I appreciate your help.
