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…   Roman: Howdy Dr. Cabral! When I eat avocados, I get an itchy throat. I typically just eat half an avocado. Is this an avocado allergy? I remember experiencing something similar after eating bananas, this hasn't happened in a long time though. Do I keep eating avocados? I mainly eat them because of all their health benefits and because they are delicious. What else might this reaction in my throat tell me? Thank you!   Heather: Hi there! Thanks as always for taking the time to answer our questions! Can you tell me a little bit about Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS)? I searched the podcast archives and couldn't find any episodes on the topic. My cousin got it from using tampons and I was wondering what could be done naturally for TSS and if she could use non-toxic tampons in the future. Thanks again!   Jaclyn: Hi Dr. Cabral! I'm an IHP & am so fortunate to have been taught by you. I love being able to share your podcasts/knowledge with friends family & clients, you have really changed my life in so many ways. Thank you! Personally, I wanted to write in & ask if you have any feedback regarding FACTOR V. I was diagnosed after my Mom's diagnosis (she had pulmonary embolisms after a long elective surgery) but she went two pregnancies, c-sections and other surgeries without knowing until this happened in her 50's. Now I am family planning & my OBGYN said i will need to take a baby aspirin daily while pregnant or heprin injections. This is very scary to me considering I do not take any medications, any information on this condition and especially alternative supplements would be greatly appreciated!   Anonymous: Hi, dr. C I had the flu in January and I was feeling run down for 3 weeks later still (I have fibromyalgia so everything seems to last longer for me, is it to do with mitochondria and ATP?), last 3 months I also have tinnitus & it's getting worse, can you help me with that, please? Now I had flu-like symptoms again for 1 day and sore throat & coughing up mucus for a week. Yesterday I went to sleep earlier because my body just felt so tired & I slept for almost 12h! Oura says it was 11h 48min & although there's 3h 18min of REM, there's only 1h 36min of deep sleep & a lot of it at the end, so if I slept a normal 8h, it would be much less. Usually I almost never get 90min of deep sleep. Why am I getting so little deep sleep & how to make it better? Thank you for your help   Marica: Hello Dr Cabral, Could you talk a little about selenium supplementation and its possible side effects? I was about to start taking some selenium supplements to help with my TED and I just read somewhere that it can cause skin cancer. Thanks so much!         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/3005 - - - 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:    Jenny: Hi Dr. Cabral - Thank you and your wonderful team for all that you do to help our community. It truly is amazing and I never miss a podcast. To celebrate your 2000th episode, your wife joined you and shared some of her favorite skin care products and it was so great to get her perspective in addition to yours. Any chance she can make a reappearance and give us an update since, like you, she may have new favorites and other recommendations of what has worked best for her? Thank you!   Anonymous: Hi Dr Cabral - I recently had foot surgery that resulted in a small metal (titanium) plate that is now permanent. Are there any risks or precautions I should be aware of or protocols that you would recommend? Thank you for all that you do!   Rocco: Hi Dr Cabral, love your work and especially your chocolate DNS! I recently did the Big 5 labs (not all through Equilife as i am from Australia, and the costs unfortunately increase significantly due to shipping and taxes). I did my stool test through a naturopath in Australia, and one of the key findings was "very low PH" level. do you know why this would be and what i can do about it? The consistency of my stool sample was soft, elastase low; and butyrate and total SCFA were both high. The naturopath spoke to me about the reasons of my findings, but didn't seem to cover much off on my low ph. Should i be doing something to change this? Most of the other labs i did showed symptoms of high stress, so not sure if this has contributed to the very low ph in my stool sample. Thank you!   Amina: Why do I have very bad breath and I can't smell my own breath. When I was younger I always had bad breath. I brush, floss and even tongue scrap. Iv tryed everything. what can it be?   Lara: Hi, dr. C! I'm wondering about cornstarch and other starches in products.. we mostly find things with those starches in them in gluten free products.. even in CREAM OF TARTAR based baking powder.. oh, is cream of tartar (potassium bitartrate or potassium hydrogen tartrate) ok to use instead of other baking powders? Why is it so bad to consume cornstarch? Why is tapioca starch bad? And why potato starch? Is it only because they're probably GMO in USA? Because that is probably not the same for Europe, right? Here we're supposed to have better regulations when it comes to corn.. I think, heh.. It would be helpful to know how to explain this in length to friends and family here.. Thank you for all your help, you're absolutely amazing!         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/3004 - - - 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?
