Listen Later

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…

 

Renne: hi dr. cabral! after many years of stubborn acne and not seeing the results from my functional efforts, i reached a point where i was willing to try spironolactone for reducing androgen production. after only 8 days on 50mg, i developed intense right side flank/kidney pain that was also associated with heart flutters. i stopped the meds and everything subsided after 3 or so days. could my low potassium have caused this? any thoughts?

 

Angie: Thank you for making functional medicine more accessible and affordable to all! I have a few questions…. How do I know what podcast episode to listen to for the answers? I did the two week detox and I still don’t feel well. I didn’t lose any weight, I was hungry the whole time, my stomach still feels bloated and I am still gassy. What now? Also can you tell me what you think of Truvani’s products by the food babe? 

 

Lorie: My right eye waters off and on all day long. Especially in the cold, or when air blows on me. It is not dry eye or a problem with my tear duct being blocked. Is there anything I can do for it? The eye doctors have not been able to help me. This has been going on for at least 15 years. Thank you

 

Mia: I have been dealing with gut issues for a while and recently developed Mast cell activation syndrome. Could the root cause of MCAS be the gut issues? And, could dealing with that could resolve the MCAS?I keep hearing MCAS is progressive and not curable (and mine is progressively getting worse every few months) and am very scared because the symptoms of MCAS are quite terrible. Is there any suggested testing or tips to dealing with it?

 

Terri: Hi Dr. Cabral~ Thank you for having the best podcast ANYWHERE and for being so generous with your time and knowledge. I am a 61-year-old woman and have normal, although probably not optimal, thyroid levels. I recently shot up rather suddenly into the 6+ TSH range with really no explanation that I can think of from a dietary or environmental exposure standpoint. My question is… I had a few recent incidences of ingesting an NAC supplement with an inadequate amount of water and the burning in my throat was excruciating and lasted about 15-20 minutes each time. Is it possible that this could have damaged my thyroid and if so, is it reparable? Thanks so much for taking my question!
