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:    Marie: Hi Dr. Cabral -Thank you for the knowledge you share with your community. I've started listening to your podcasts a few months ago and feel like I'm finally on track with resolving autoimmune and gut issues. My question is on behalf of my 81-year old mother. She has essential tremors in her head/neck and hands. She experienced these around 20 years ago and they seemed to subside for 10-15 years and have resurfaced over the past few years. She used to be a vibrant and active person but over the past few years, the tremors have kept her from many activities. I was wondering if CBD gummies or other products might be helpful for her. She did experience a minor stroke in May 2022, but from what I understand, CBD gummies should have no adverse effects. Thank you for all your help!   Claudia: Hi Dr. Cabral, I love your podcasts. They've been helping me so much in my journey to health. My question is about Polyester in clothing. I have been slowly switching over to 100% organic cotton and linen. I've noticed that the Equilife T-shirts are now a Polyester blend. I thought that Polyester releases toxins (even if it is recycled Polyester), especially when submitted to heat like the dryer or sweating. Could you please share your thoughts on this. Thank you so much for all your hard work that you put into these podcasts.   Nancy: Hi Dr Cabral I am enrolled in Level 1 and just completed the module on stress and blood sugar and I want to make sure that I understand - does black coffee causes blood blood sugar increase Thank you Nancy   Gemma: I read just today that the FDA has approved a pill for the microbiome (first time approval) called SER-109. I am curious to get your opinion on this and whether it is potentially effective for SIBO-C. I have been experiencing recurring SIBO-C despite all the probiotics and good eating habits and various testing to understand my body but somehow this smithii gut bacteria thing keeps coming back so im wondering if this is a suitable option for me. I am not a fan of antibiotics and not sure if this product is working in that manner. Please explain in English for me what this is doing.   Nicole: I’ve always had poor gut health. I’ve done labs and I am completing the protocols to finally get that taken care of. But, there is a good chance that I passed poor gut health down to my son (who is 15 months old). He has an egg sensitivity (he gets a rash and throws up when he eats eggs). He also has Eczema. He has received all of his vaccines in order to attend day care. He also had numerous rounds of antibiotics for ear infections prior to getting tubes. I gave him a probiotic with each round of antibiotics. And I only feed him organic, grass fed cow’s milk and organic, non-gmo, home cooked whole foods. Until I can run lab tests when he is 4 years old to address specifics, what else can I do for him in the mean time?   Marlyse: What are your thoughts about galactin 3 and the use of modified Citrus pectin?   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/2703 - - - 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?

What are zombie cells?   I know they might sound like something out of a horror movie, but in fact, they are old senescent cells that refuse to die off and as a result, they cause increased inflammation and faster aging.   If we want to improve our overall health and slow down the aging process, we need to understand how zombie cells affect us and the best ways in which we can combat them.   So on today’s #CabralConcept 2701, I want to discuss what these cells are, why they are harmful to your body, and how sauna & heat shock proteins can help remove them and slow signs of aging - Enjoy the show and let me know what you thought!   - - - For Everything Mentioned In Today's Show: StephenCabral.com/2701 - - - 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?

We live in a very stressful world…   We know that lifestyle and emotional stress can take a toll on our bodies which can eventually lead to dis-ease.   But what we begin to see first is a gradual weakening of the body that shows up as fatigue, gray hair, wrinkles, immune system issues, and much more.   These small, but significant, changes are an indication that stress is wreaking havoc internally and it is important to understand what is happening and how to fix it.   So on today’s #CabralConcept 2700, I want to go over how stress depletes these 5 vitamins & minerals and what you can do to replenish them - Enjoy the show and let me know what you thought!   - - - For Everything Mentioned In Today's Show: StephenCabral.com/2700 - - - 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?

Consistently testing your blood sugar levels used to mean having to finger prick yourself all day long…   Now with the availability of CGMs (continuous glucose monitors), we are better able to monitor our blood sugar throughout the day and receive a wide variety of information about our health.   As I have begun to monitor my blood sugar levels more and more, I have noticed that I frequently get a single rise in glucose after a complex meal followed by a 2nd rise shortly after.   As always, I want to bring you the science behind why this is happening so you can better understand your health and how your blood sugar plays a role.   So, join me on today’s #CabralConcept 2699 where I go over the research behind single vs. double insulin spikes after meals - Enjoy the show and let me know what you thought!   - - - For Everything Mentioned In Today's Show: StephenCabral.com/2699 - - - 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?

Oftentimes we are our own worst enemy…   We wouldn’t speak to people we love the way we speak to ourselves and yet most people’s inner dialogue is full of negativity and judgment.   What we say to ourselves matters and it impacts the choices we make and how we live our lives.   It can also hold us back from reaching our goals.   So today on  #CabralConcept 2698 I want to go over the 3 ways to be nicer to yourself - Enjoy the show and let me know what you thought!   - - - For Everything Mentioned In Today's Show: StephenCabral.com/2698 - - - 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?

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…   Luis: Hi Dr Cabral, Would you recommend Bentonite Clay for someone with slow gut motility/chronic constipation/gut cramping? Would it be fine to take Mimosa Pudica seeds with such conditions? I would be somewhat concerned about possible impactions. Thanks   Jennifer: Hi Dr. Cabral, I love all of the information you provide and trust and appreciate your guidance! I am a 48-year-old female with pretty regular cycles still. I recently had the Dutch hormone test and it showed that I have high estrogen and low progesterone and cortisol. I sleep well. I average 8-9 hours a night, with 1.5 hours deep sleep and 2 hours of REM. But I am tired throughout the day, and I always feel like I am in fight or flight. I started taking your progesterone support supplement, and I was taking adrenal soothe to help reduce my RHR - it averages around 80 even when sleeping. It was helping to lower my RHR, but I am concerned about my low cortisol levels and fatigue. Would adrenal soothe still be okay, and what about the adrenal energy support? Any feedback is appreciated.   Nana: Hi Dr. Cabral, I really admire your continuous pursuit of knowledge and sense of wonder. I was wondering, how are you able to retain information from all the books and articles you read long term?   Dani: Hi Dr Cabral, what’s your opinion on Yohimbine HCL for fat loss/ fatburner? Is it effective and safe? And if so , can you recommend a brand you trust? Thanks!   Ryan: In 2018 I had my gall bladder removed and my base weight shot from 185 to 205. I have found it extremely hard to rid myself of excess fat. I have done some intense programs that have had only minor & short term success. As soon as my protocols stop I return to my original composition. My PCM suggested markers of metabolic disorder, but my blood panels don’t show anything abnormal (such as thyroid issues). I am definitionally a kapha body type and can’t seem to make any progress. I’m told “ah, that’s just aging,” but I must believe I can still improve. Are there links to weight gain and gall bladder removal that can be mitigated? I’m a 32 year old, 5’9” male. I run semi-regularly and lift weights 4-6x per week and under the supervision trainers.   Suzanne: Hi doctor Cabral, I've been listening to a podcast, in which an MD was talking about different health risks of women who have never had children. He was specifically talking about a higher risk of breast cancer., etc. I'm in my mid forties and chose not to have kids, so I'm curious to hear your opinion about this. Is it true? And if so, what are the things that we can do in order to reduce these health risks? Thanks so much for your help, I really value your opinion and expertise.   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/2697 - - - 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:    Diane: I was wondering if there is anything I can do for Trigeminal neuralgia?   Diane: How do you get rid of hemi facial spasm?   Talitha: Thank you for putting your podcast out there. It's led me to explore some new approaches to ongoing issues, and some of those new approaches are already working for me. My question: what would you suggest to prevent, or lessen the chances of getting cellulitis from a mosquito bite? Last summer, I started having a bigger reaction to mosquito bites, especially on my upper legs when bit through my clothing. I got large, red and hot circles 3-6 inches in diameter. Twice last year, those bites resulted in cellulitis requiring antibiotics. There are some aggressive mosquitos, and I use a number of ways to keep them away including yard treatments, environmental repellants and a lemon eucalyptus bug spray, but I get some bites anyway. I did the detox and will quarterly. Any other suggestions?   Matthew: Hi, I have asked a question concerning HIV last time. This time, I'd like to ask what I can do about an external anal abscess that came after I contracted syphilis. I don't know how long I had had the infection for because at the time I didn't have insurance and my physician (NP) told me he couldn't do any of my labs unless I paid up front, and at the time I didn't have the money. Once I found out after my insurance started, he did my regular labs, and stated my immune system continues to fight the HIV I contracted around 11/2021. He referred me to ID which was the same one for the HIV that he referred me too, which I don't have a good relationship with because they just want to push medications. MY NP listens to me and told me to go to health department which I was given PCN injections.   Elsa: Hi Dr. Cabral, I have been suffering from allergies and congestion for a long time now. I’ve been listening to your podcast for a while and have recently purchased the CBO protocol (for round two) and the mold protocol and am starting those now. With allergy medication I can usually get my sneezing and runny nose under control but I can never seem to get my congestion under control. I have tried GSE spray, Nasacort spray, and neti pot with citricidal drops and all of them irritate my nose like crazy- I sneeze a ton and my nose gets really inflamed and congested. I get really discouraged because I want to breathe through my nose and clear out any yeast or bacterial overgrowth there but can’t put anything in my nose without it getting irritated. Why do you think this is? Any advice?   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/2696 - - - 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?
