3046: Contraceptive Comparison, Strep Throat Help, Low Blood Cell Count, Chronic Digestive & Bladder Issues, Statins & Heart Health (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:
May: Dr. Cabral, I highly trust and appreciate your opinion. Can you please share your opinion on contraceptives and explain the difference, drawbacks, short and long term side effects, risks and effectiveness. I am deciding between pills, copper IUD, hormonal IUD. What’s the best option? Thank you
Al: Hello Doctor Cabral, what do you suggest for strep throat? Almost every year I suffer from it and I’ve red about Biocidin throat spray, nastrium tincture, gargling colloidal silver. Are there any effective alternatives to antibiotics, which I don’t want to take? Can you share a specific strep throat protocol that you would use if you had such bacterial infection. Thank you very much for your expertise, it means a lot.
Jo: My recent blood work shows low red and white blood cell counts ( just below the green normal levels). Should I be concerned? All other blood markers were within the normal limits. Iron levels are normal. I am 60 years old. Also, I have had a fissured tongue for as long as I can remember, not painful, and no known allergies. Any idea what this could mean?
Kristen: Hi Dr. Cabral! I recently started listening to your podcast because I have been dealing with digestive and bladder issues for over 5 years. I am a 37 year old female. I eat well and exercise regularly. My digestive symptoms recently worsened and I began having left abdominal pain on the inferior margin of my ribs. A CT scan was negative. H. Pylori breath, stool and culture with upper endoscopy were all negative. An upper endoscopy revealed gastric myoplasia on biopsy. I also have on and off bladder irritation. It feels like I have to urinate and I don’t. I feel like this is all related. I listened to your podcast on ulcers and began doing twice a day cabbage juice and doing an antihistamine diet. My symptoms stabilized a bit but have not resolved. Please advise on what to do. Thank you!
Greg: Dear Dr. Cabral, Thank you for your effort to promote a more holistic approach to living. I am a U.S. Foreign Service Officer in a U.S. Embassy overseas and find health management a bit more challenging, including taking advantage of the testing options, etc. available to those in the US. I recently started statins and a few days later listened to episode #2958 (Medications and Drugs that Drain Your Energy). I was particularly moved by your discussion on how statins can reduce mitochondrial health in the heart (just the heart?). For those that have hereditary reasons to stay on statins, what can we do, beyond lifestyle (food/exercise), to mitigate/promote/preserve mitochondrial health of the heart (and body generally) that may be affected by statins? Thank you again, Greg
