Many times, colorectal cancer risk and gut health issues aren't obvious and require a closer look at what's happening inside the body. On today's episode, I break down colonoscopies, one of the most effective preventive tools for detecting and removing polyps before they can turn cancerous. While many assume screenings are only necessary later in life, colon issues can start much earlier, and early detection can prevent serious complications. We also compare colonoscopy to full-body MRI, review the prep, sedation, and potential side effects, and discuss how screening frequency should be tailored based on age, family history, and personal risk. Join me on today's Cabral Concept 3695 as I explain how a colonoscopy works, what it can detect, and how to make an informed decision about whether it's right for you this year. Enjoy the show!

Many times, the underlying cause to your health concerns isn't obvious and requires looking deeper at what's happening inside the body at the metabolic level.

On today's episode, I break down the New Candida Metabolic & Vitamins Test, one of the most advanced organic acids tests available, measuring more than 75 biomarkers to help uncover hidden imbalances.

While many people struggle with symptoms like bloating, brain fog, skin issues, fatigue, or low mood, the root cause often lies in areas like gut dysbiosis, yeast overgrowth, nutrient deficiencies, or impaired detoxification pathways.

Functional medicine testing allows us to see these deeper imbalances so we can address them with targeted protocols rather than guesswork.

So join me on today's Cabral Concept 3694 where I walk you through how this simple at-home test works, what the key markers reveal about your health, and how identifying issues like yeast overgrowth or vitamin deficiencies can help guide a personalized plan for healing.

Enjoy the show!

Could your body be missing two key nutrients needed to help defend against cancer at the cellular level? On today's show, I build on our previous discussion of the p53 gene, often called the "guardian of the genome," which acts as the body's internal surveillance system to detect DNA damage, repair mutations, and eliminate potentially cancerous cells. While this powerful system works automatically, it can become suppressed by factors like poor sleep, artificial light at night, chronic stress, and more. The good news is that there are two specific nutrients that play a critical role in supporting this protective process. So join me on today's Cabral Concept 3693 to learn how these two nutrients help support your body's natural cancer surveillance system and what simple lifestyle habits can help optimize their function. Enjoy the show!

Are you giving your mind and body enough time to reset during the day? On today's episode, I share three simple yet underrated practices that can help calm the nervous system, improve resilience to stress, and support better sleep and overall health. Many high performers spend their days constantly in fight-or-flight mode, which can drain energy, impact recovery, and make it harder to stay focused and balanced. The good news is that it doesn't take much time to reset your system, just a few intentional moments built into your day. So join me on today's Cabral Concept 3692 where I walk through the concept of daily "anchors," how even 10–15 minutes in the morning, mid-day, and evening can help bring your body back into balance, and how to choose activities that truly help you relax and recharge. Enjoy the show!

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…

Emily: My sibling was diagnosed with ADHD at a very young age and has been taking ADHD medication for at least 5 years. In the IHP level one course we were learning about neurotransmitters and you were speaking about how having to much adrenaline and dopamine can cause behavioral issue among many other issues. My sibling has had behavioral issues such as compulsive lying, very impulsive, and it seems that she does not think though any of her actions as if her actions have no consequences. Its beyond the normal rebellious teen. I was curious if this could possibly be due to the adhd medication that she has been taking? If so, can you please explain? What labs should we run? How would someone wean off adhd meds? Any other recommendations? Thank you! Andy: I'd love to get your professional opinion on Mitopure (urolithin A). What does the current research say about its effectiveness for mitochondrial health and longevity, and do you see real-world benefits in your patients or practice? Sarah: Hello! My husband and I own and operate a diesel truck repair shop and have been in business for 11 years. During that time, I've had regular exposure to diesel exhaust, fumes, solvents, and shop air. Over the past few years, I've experienced some ongoing health concerns (inflammation, fatigue, gut issues) and am wondering whether long-term exposure could be contributing. I'm interested in a functional medicine approach to evaluate possible toxic burden or inflammation and to understand what testing, lifestyle changes, or supplements might help support lung health, detox pathways, and overall wellness. I'm looking for a proactive, preventative approach while continuing to run our business. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you! Anonymous: I started listening to your podcasts a few years ago, and I've learned how to improve my health and quality of life in many ways—so thank you for sharing your knowledge! Question: My heavy metals test showed high levels of mercury and aluminum. Recently started processes to remove them: functional medicine detox (5 days) > intestinal cleanse (2 days) > heavy metal detox (30+ days, still going), and another intestinal cleanse (2 days on 30th day). Feeling mentally and physically better - like my "old self" again. When I started the HM detox, my bowel movements started having a strong smell and causing my anus to itch. Is that due to an elimination of heavy metals or due to ingredients in the detox or cleanse? Thanks. Pete: Hi Stephen, Thanks for the great work you do. I wake up every night once (sometimes twice) to urinate and would love your thoughts on how to sleep through the night. Some background: I'm a 40-year-old male, generally healthy, eat clean, and don't drink alcohol. I stop eating about three hours before bed and limit fluids in the evening. No caffeine after noon. During the day I also urinate frequently, which I can manage. At night the volume is small, but the urgency signal is strong. I've been checked by a doctor (including prostate), everything looks normal, and I've tried a few medications with limited effect. I'd really appreciate your thoughts on any protocols or angles that might be worth exploring. Best, Peter

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:

Mohamed: Good day Dr.Cabral. Thoughts on high cholesterol support. I know you covered this topic a lot but anything new that comes to mind? And what kind or protocol would you run over 2-3 months? I know omega3s are great. A good multi. But any others (food also).. in addition to diet improvement. Thanks! Tom: Thoughts on sinus support.. itchiness both sides (left side a bit more). Would citridical drops help and how would I apply it on the nostrils, currently on Amlodipine and grapefruit is contraindicated. So is there another thing I could try. Thanks for all that you do. Svetlana: Hello, Dr. Cabral. Have you thought about writing a children's wellness book based on your teachings and the distress protocol? Mostly on the middle school level, since high school kids could comprehend the rain barrel effect. It would be great to have it for a homeschool science class and just in general for all the kids to start learning about how to take care of their body. I'm looking for a science/wellness/whole body and mind book that would be engaging for an 11 year old, but not full or standard allopathic recommendations. Do you know of one you could recommend? A lot of the children's books on the market aren't exactly what you have to offer. Thank you for all that you do. Jill: Thanks Dr. Cabral for your accessibility in answering questions! Looking for your feedback on Proteolytic Enzymes. I began taking recently at the recommended dose and began having severe headaches that stretched into my lower neck and left shoulder. I thought it might be an allergic reaction or side effect. I stopped for a week and then began again with just 1 capsule a day and seem to tolerate that just fine. Have you seen reactions like this and do you think its ok for me to continue and/or even ramp up at some point and take the full dose? Lori: Hello Dr. Cabral ~ I listen to your podcast every day, and appreciate you sharing your knowledge and feedback! I am a 59-year-old post-menopausal female, a 27-year Stage 4 Metastatic Melanoma survivor (my recurrence of melanoma occurred when I was pregnant at the age of 31). My mother passed at the age of 36 from pancreatic cancer; my dad passed at the age of 51 from lung cancer. I vist my dermatologist twice per year for skin checks, I avoid the sun, wear sunscreen every day. I am a non-smoker, I exercise daily and I am in good health. Can you tell me if there are tests I should have performed regularly that will indicate the health of my pancreas and lungs? Is that something I should be concerned with? Are there other tests and/or indicators I should be aware of? 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! - - -

Are you truly getting enough vitamin D, or just assuming you are? On today's episode, I explain why vitamin D is far more than just a vitamin, it actually acts like a hormone in the body and plays a critical role in immune health, mood, metabolism, inflammation, and even longevity. Many people assume they are getting enough from sunlight, but in reality, most individuals still fall below the optimal range. So join me on today's Cabral Concept 3688 where I share how to identify the most common signs of low vitamin D without testing and what simple steps you can take to support healthy vitamin D levels year-round. Enjoy the show!

Can you uncover hidden nutrient deficiencies and toxic burdens with a simple at-home urine test? On today's episode, I'm excited to introduce a brand-new Vitamin & Antioxidant Lab that allows you to measure 13 key markers and vitamin levels right from home. While traditional blood work plays an important role, functional medicine testing helps uncover the root causes behind symptoms like low energy, brain fog, inflammation, mood changes, and much more. So join me on today's Cabral Concept 3687 where I go over how this simple at-home urine test works, what each marker means and why it matters, and how elevated levels can actually signal increased need rather than excess. Enjoy the show!
