2599: Fertility Questions, Sauna & TTC, Stopping Birth Control, Dizziness, High Liver Enzymes (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…   Deborah: Hello, love you podcasts. I've been listening for years; you're a wealth of knowledge. I have fertility related questions. I have Hashimoto's and have had many early miscarriages. I do have have 4 children, with healthy and easy pregnancies, once established. 1. Is there any supp or Rx that would help with implantation in the case of autoimmune conditions? 2. Do you recommend to forgo coffee when TTC (I drink 1 cup organic in AM)? 3. This one is a little weird but just want your thought: Will taking my daily proteolytic enzymes effect sperm when TTC, and should I only do it early in cycle? Thanks so much for your insight!   Eric: I have a question re infrared sauna. I know it's very healing, but when TTC, should I refrain from it and also should my wife, or could she do it only the first half of her cycle before ovulation? Thanks so much for your dedication to all things wellness.   Cori: Hello! Love your podcast, so informative and I feel like I’m learning and growing so much just from listening! Life changing information here. I have been on birth control (nexplanon/arm implant) for 8 years now due to heavy periods and needing iron infusions because they are so heavy for 6-7 days. I went off of it for about a year and gained 30 pounds around stomach and thighs and upper arms :( I try hard to lose it but it doesn’t budge, and I and ended up with extremely low ferritin levels, so my dr put me back on it. I want to come off birth control due to what I now know about it, but where do I start? Thank you for all you do!   Erica: Hi Dr. Cabral! I wanted to ask you your thoughts on what could be the root of my symptoms. I’ve had dizziness for about 3-4 years now and it’s very consistent almost every day. However, it hasn’t gotten worse it’s stayed very consistent over this time. It seems to be worse around the time of my period and also when under stress. In addition, I have a lot of popping in both of my ears and sometimes my ears feel itchy and almost like my eustachian tubes have to release pressure. I went to the ENT who said I might have Eustachian tube dysfunction but ruled out any fluid in my ears or other issues. I also tried the maneuver for crystals in my ears which didn’t seem to have an effect either. Any thoughts on things I could try? Dizziness got worse when I took antibiotics 3/4 years ago. Thank you   Jen: Hi Dr. Cabral, I recently had some blood tests on 11/29/22 and my AST was 126 and my ALT 218. They ran iron, Hepetitis, all negative. Ultrasound of my liver only showed small amount of fatty liver. I retested on 1/10/23 and now my AST is 149 and ALT is 244. I have taken Kratom for my Levoscoliosis but only sparingly 2-4 tablets once in a while when my back is really bad because I dont want to have to take pharma pills to manage my back pain. She had me stay off the Kratom before I retested. I don't drink much nor do any drugs. I do vape nicotine and in September I had a copper IUD implanted so I wonder if any of these might be the culprit or what could be causing my enzymes to be this high and what I can do to bring them back down.

Check out today's questions:    Ryan: Hi Dr Cabral, I love your podcast , and your equilife products too! My question is for father . He has ESRD because of untreated hypertension. His BP was 284/165 his last trip to ER. He gets dialysis. He eat relatively good for a 65 year old. He eats lots of fruit and veggies. He likes beef , chicken an pork. He's not overweight, small belly. Sorry just wanted you to have as much info to make possible suggestions. Every since he started dialysis and years before , his uncontrolled BP in return gave him ckd, an now ESRD . He feels so wiped-out afterwards and gets cramps in back legs and feet. Maybe something revitalizing a little and replenishing him? And maybe electrolyte products or shakes of your line. Love the podcast . So incredibly grateful to have stumbled upon your podcast !   Kenzie: My boyfriend is getting his deviated septum fixed. They want him on antibiotics because it’s a surgery. Any tips for supporting the gut during? Any thoughts on this surgery?   Shannon: Hi Dr. Cabral, my 12-year-old son has been suffering from post-concussive syndrome since May 2022. He has had daily pounding headaches, accompanied sometimes by nausea, dizziness, difficulty concentrating etc. I had to withdraw him from school and his mood is very low and he cries a lot which is not normal for him. My heart is breaking as I don’t know how to help him. We’ve seen the chiropractor, Osteopath, function Medicine practitioner, naturopath had acupuncture, cranial sacral therapy, massage and tried so many different things such as essential oils, food eliminations, high dose Omega 3, magnesium, homeopathic remedies. His sleep is poor and he is not himself in so many ways. I feel like this nightmare will never end. What am I missing? Please give me hope that this will get better.   Leora: My 22 month old son has been diagnosed with Severe Congenital Neutropenia with a mutation of the ELANE gene. We are currently investigating whether it is cyclic or not. Is there anything natural I can do to boost his neutrophils level? Moreover, he has chronic ear infections. Every time he has a virus he gets an ear infection. Of course the doctors always want him on antibiotics but I have found that onion juice works well to clear up the ear infection. However, is there anything I can do to prevent the ear infection occuring in the first place? His doctor believes it is caused by a fluid buildup that doesn't release due to the architecture of his ear.   Kenzie: Hello! Any tips for cutting down emf when living in apartment? I can’t shut off my wifi. And obviously I live next to above and under other apartments.   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/2598 - - - 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?

2592: Low Copper, Low Body Temperature, Amalgam Filling Dangers, BHRT Cautions, Tonsil & Adenoid Removal (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: What are the signs and symptoms of low copper?   Anonymous: Hey doc, love the show and all you do! On a few different episodes, I've heard you use some form of the phrase "if you didn't have it as a kid" to indicate that some toxicity or imbalance occurred at some point during the course of life to cause a symptom. My question is regarding low body temperature, which I've heard you say is a sign of a sluggish metabolism. My body temperature has actually always been between 97-97.5 degrees, even as a baby, so I was wondering if you knew of anything that could cause this from birth? (As opposed to something that was triggered by lifestyle, environmental exposure, etc. since this abnormality was present from birth)   Hailey: Hi, I have been gradually making changes with guidance of the rain barrel effect, and am scheduled with a SAFE dentist to have one amalgam filling removed next month, however, after seeing my brother in law (who is a dentist), I am having some paused based on this information he shared with me regarding the discrediting and license provoking of Hal Huggins. My brother in law claims you would have to have 3x the amount of teeth in your mouth all covered in amalgam to experience the effects of any mercury leakage. Of course I would ideally still have it removed as I still don't want this material in my body, but given I am in the middle of PA school and it is quite expensive, postponing is appealing to me. Just wondering if you have any clarifying advice to offer? Thank you!   Pamela: Hi Dr Cabral! I really enjoy your podcast and want to thank you for all the wonderful information I’ve learned from you. My question is about bio identical hormone replacement therapy. I’m a post menopausal woman (57 yrs old) and recently started to see a ND to optimize my health. On my intake form, the ND saw that when I menstruated, I had painful periods and heavy bleeding. I also had many years of fertility issues.The ND also mentioned to me that BHRT would help to protect against breast cancer and it would also allow me to have a deeper better sleep. I presently am able to fall asleep no problem but often wake at around 4-4:30 am and have difficulty going back to sleep. I’m unsure about taking BHRT and would appreciate any information you can provide. Thank you again!   Eric: When I was younger my parents got my tonsils and agnoids removed because I was snoring a large amount. Are there any long term effects to that? Anything I can do to help it?   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/2592 - - - 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?
