The Cabral Concept

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…

Zach: Hi Dr. Cabral, I was officially diagnosed with Tourette's Syndrome at age 20, but have had it, if I recall correctly, probably since I was six years old. If there's one thing I've learned about TS, it's that we don't know much about it, but I am a firm believer that the foods we eat can change our chemistry for the better. I talked to some friends who also have TS and believe in a more wholistic approach to medicine, as well. They made me aware that Red40 food dye is a major trigger of their tics and this was common amongst the TS community. In your experience, are there any other foods that might increase severity of tics that I should avoid, and is there a lab test you would recommend for sorting out how I can best live with this neurological disorder in a way that doesn't involve pills?

Renata: Hi Dr Cabral I'm wondering if you can help me. My son is five and since last September 2021 he keeps getting coughs every 4 to 5 weeks. It starts off as spasmodic and then gradually becomes looser. The coughs eased off in May and then started up again in October. I'm wondering could it be allergy related. He was on antibiotics at birth for 24 hours but breastfed exclusively for seven months. He suffered from reflux and had a lot of digestive discomfort. Once he was on Ion the digestive problems seemed to resolve, however, I'm wondering is this now manifesting through the respiratory system? I live in Ireland so testing is not great here. Thank you.

Julia: Hello, Been losing mass amount of hair since the end of 2020. DHEA-s have been high for a very long time. Have stabilize Testosterone numbers since. Currently suffering from high cortisol and low b vitamins and low ferratin despite supplementing with iron. Additionally, Copper levels are very high despite supplementing higher amounts of Zinc. Recently did a heavy metal detox - copper slightly lowered but not much. CRP marker was at an 8 and has since change to a 2. Any tests i should run ? how can i get my hair back to normal

Rupa: Hello! My dad is 78 years old and he is healthy and active but he can't get his A1C level down from 6.2 and his fasting blood glucose is 108. He is vegetarian and walks everyday and practices IF each day at least 13-14 hours. Thank you!

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!

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:

Amber: Hi Dr. Cabral. I am very grateful for you and your team and all that you have created/done for this community. I am 46 years old and definitely feel better than I did in my 30's thanks to you! We are looking to install a whole home water filtration system for our house. I have looked at several of them but when I reach out for information, they all boast that the other companies are far less superior and I am having a hard time sifting through the non-sense. My ultimate goal is to have a system that removes all the nastiness, including fluroride, chlorine, etc. so we can drink/shower safely in any of the faucets/showers throughout our home. Are you familiar with the Vitasalus PureMaster V-700 FluorideMaster Combo and if so, would you recommend it? If not, what would you put on your home?

Laddy: Hello Dr. Stephen Cabral! I want to thank you so much for what you are doing I'm have learned so much from you and I absolutely adore your YouTube channel and podcast! God bless you! I would like to know what you think of laser skin resurfacing Treatment such as halo or opus plasma and BBL/IPL light therapy treatments for anti-aging? I would also like to know what you think of medical grade skin care or do you believe in keeping your skin care line all natural?

Carla: Thank you for your informative podcasts. They are so helpful. My boyfriend is very committed to the McDougal high starch diet. I am a little concerned for the health and sustainability of this plan. What are your thoughts on this plan?

Crystal: Hello. I have waited a long time to ask this question. I have noticed my body is very sensitive to weather changes in humidity, pressures, storms, and or snow. An abrupt change from clear skies to a cloudy incoming storm will cause immense pain in my stomach that radiates outward to my ribs effecting my breathing. It also cause gurgling in my stomach, nausea, burping, and I get pale etc…I'm not sure if this is triggering my vagus nerve or if it's a vasovagal attack, or possible abdominal migraine. This has been happening a couple years now. It has got somewhat better. I have done a lot of work with your team. I guess I would like your insight into this, and how the weather could be contributing/cause. I am embarrassed to even ask. Thank you so much for a starting point/ root cause.

Lynn: Hi Dr. Cabral: Thank you for these house call podcasts. I really enjoy them and look forward to listening every week. I wondered if you have any suggestions for someone who is living without a thyroid gland. I had mine removed 40 years ago due to cancer. They also removed the parathyroid. I take natural thyroid (armour) as a replacement. My levels are stable and within "normal" range. However, I wonder if there is things that I can do to nutritionally to improve uptake or things I should avoid that would inhibit uptake. Appreciate all you do and I look forward to hearing the answer to my question in 12 weeks or so.

So join me on today's #CabralConcept 2560 - where I debate the pros and cons of having a small daily cheat or 1x a week big cheat meal - Enjoy the show and let me know what you thought!

I think the philosophy behind conventional medicine has to change…

I am all for it when it comes to acute-based medicine and life-saving measures but overall it has become focused more on sick care instead of health care.

And more and more we are seeing a shortage of doctors and nurses and they are leaving due to this broken system.

That's why on today's #CabralConcept 2559 I want to share with you the top reasons why doctors and nurses are leaving medicine - Enjoy the show and let me know what you thought!

There has been a lot of disconnect and discomfort over the past few years and that can leave people feeling lost and depressed.

To truly be happy, even in the face of adversity, you must find what really drives you in life.

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…

Mariana: Thank you and your team for all that you do! What are your thoughts on tahini? I have quite a bit on days 14-28 of my cycle as I do seed cycling but I believe it's made from TOASTED sesame seeds? Does this mean that it's not actually as healthy as portrayed? Thank you!

Kelsey: Hello Doctor, I am 27 year old female. I recently went off TRT and I have a hypothyroid condition. I have had a history of past anorexia nervosa. I am now doing much better in that regard, I am about 130lbs 5'2 and 24ish %body fat. I am a very active individual and have always been health conscious. My diet is almost 100% Whole Foods and I have been on fertility treatment the majority of this year and have been unsuccessful. I have never had a child and have gone for many years with missing periods (no PCOS). In 2020 I went on birth control because I had regained my cycles naturally and was trying to boost hormones to conceive eventually. My question for you is this: how can i regain my natural cycles without medical assistance for each one, and what should my steps be forward from here?

Amanda: Hello! I am 34 years old,105 lbs, 5'1. During my pregnancy, I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes- 1.5 years post partum the glucose intolerance is still here. My body type is Vata. Fasting glucose and insulin is normal/low, but the post prandial blood sugar after 55G+ carbs takes 3-4 hours to return to baseline and spikes quiet high and the spike is delayed. I went low to no carb for 5 years due to chronic bloating many years ago. It helped for a few months and then did not help but I continued. Blood sugar is worse during luteal-menstrual. My diet is very clean, balanced organic. PP sugar worse when im low carb. No family hx of Diabetes. I also work as a dentist - could heavy metal exposure could cause glucose issues? Have you seen this? Do you think there is hope to get better?

Maria: Hello Dr. Cabral. Thank you so much for being awesome. I have a question about cellulitis. My 75 year old mom recently had a bout with cellulitis. I wanted to ask you what can you tell me about cellulitis, how can we prevent it from happening again. I did search your past podcast but didn't find what I was looking for.

Gemma: Please can you do a podcast on non hormonal contraception. Or whatever deception methods you consider safe. I am about to get my coil removed it is a progesterone one. I have ductal hyperplasia and I do not want yearly mammograms I just want to get to the underlying root causes and I believe that I should not using any hormones. Thanks

Lisa: How do you get rid of mycotoxins -Ochratoxin I took a mold test and this was a little high 8.83 Are there supplements I can take ? I have been doing IR sauna with binders for 2 years 3-4 times a day but obviously the this is not enough

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:

Anonymous: A family member had surgery and a ct scan was done a few days after and the finding was this "Mild right apical linear scarring/atelectasis". Is this something that will go away or can be corrected? She is a bit worried and alarmed at the finding. Thanks so much

Holly: I have listened to your previous podcast talking about a scalloped tongue being digestive system dysfunction related and not the teeth marks on the tongue. My tongue gets very definitive teeth marks on it, even the mark from the edge of my Invisalign tray, especially after sleeping. The insides of my cheeks also have lines that line up along my occlusal plane more pronounced after sleeping. I used to grind my teeth horribly but it has reduced significantly after Invisalign working on my uneven bite and figuring out I have adrenal fatigue and working on stress. I do have adrenal fatigue according to taking the htma, dizziness on standing if I don't get in extra sodium, I'm prone to anxiety. Now taking adrenal soothe, dns, magnesium, i definitely feel better but my tongue still looks off

Patti: Hi Dr. Cabral: Hoping you are well. I really value your opinion. I know you are not into mega dose vitamin therapy. What are your thoughts on it for breast cancer treatment (B17, C, amino acid, ozone & ultraviolet light)? Also, thoughts on baicalin & vitamin E for breast cancer? Appreciate any help you can provide. Thank you

Anonymous: Hi Dr. Cabral! Thank you so much for everything that you do for the community. I was just on your website and went under your personal resources and I noticed that you have partnered up with BeautyCounter! I've been hearing so many amazing things about this company and how they are actually working with legislation to get laws passed to get safer and cleaner products into the hands of everyone. What I especially love about BeautyCounter is that all of their products are EWG verified. Which is a very big deal to me. They have so many amazing products that I want to try but I'm not quite sure where to start. I want to start replacing the "not so healthy"products I've been using and replace them with cleaner options. What beautycounter products do you think I should start with first?

Simon: Hi Dr Cabral, with so much talk about fasting one thing I hear surprisingly little about is the impact of reducing your window for taking supplements (vitamins/minerals/antioxidants). I do a daily 12-14hr fast and occasional 16-18hr fast and always wonder whether I should be taking supplements outside of my eating window? Are there downsides to reducing your window for taking supplements? If so what would you recommend taking? I've recently started taking an organic greens powder upon waking as I heard this also assists with detox. Thanks!
