The Cabral Concept

Do you wake up exhausted?

Did you get a full 8 hours of sleep but still have to drag yourself out of bed?

Our bodies have a natural sleep/wake rhythm and when working properly you should start to get tired when it gets dark out and begin to wake up when the sun rises.

When our bodies are out of sync, however, we can feel groggy and sluggish in the morning and wired at night.

That's why on today's #CabralConcept 2364 I'd like to share with you how our sleep cycle can get out of sync and the reasons why you might have low energy and poor sleep – Enjoy the show and let me know what you thought in the comments!

I love technology…

But along with the ease that technology can bring to our everyday lives we need to be aware of the risk we are putting ourselves at if or when we choose to use it.

As technology progresses there will be more and more devices that emerge and it is important to understand the damage it can cause so we can make the most informed decisions for ourselves and our families

So on today's #CabralConcept 2363 I want to share with you some research and known dangers behind wireless personal devices and why I choose not to wear wireless AirPods – Enjoy the show and let me know what you thought!

I truly believe we can do it all…

We all have the same hours in the day to accomplish our goals, yet it seems at times that there are people who manage to do so much more.

Recently I attended an event with business founders in the health & wellness space and noticed one specific characteristic that all of these leaders had in common.

So on today's #CabralConcept 2362 I want to share with you what I think the key component is that allows people to focus on what really matters and accomplish their goals – Enjoy the show and let me know what you thought!

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…

Richard: Hello Dr. Cabral, I would really appreciate it if you would provide your thoughts on dry fasting. I tried to search for previous shows where you spoke of this but couldn't find one where you spoke of dry fasting in detail, it's pros, cons and if there is ever a time where it should be used. Some say its dangerous and should never be done and others think it has its uses. I have a lot of cysts/lipomas (not sure which one) all over my body and a podcast I was listening to said drying fasting might work to get rid of them because when the body is dehydrated it will look for dysfunctional cells, tissues etc. to dissolve and extract water from. What do you think about all this? Thank you for answering my question, hope you are having a great day!

Gail: Hi Dr. C! Thank you so much for all that you offer to us humans seeking to learn and find health and balance in our lives. I am currently going through the program to become certified as an IHP level 1 and then level 2 health coach to add to my work as an acupuncturist and I'm so excited to have finally found the knowledge I have been looking for. I am curious to hear your thoughts about Rifaximin to treat SIBO. My friend was diagnosed by her ND with SIBO and Rifaximin is part of her protocol to treat it. Thank you for your wisdom on this and so many other health-related topics!

Michael: Hi Dr Cabral, what could cause burning/pin sensations in the hands and fit ? Tested negative on h pylori and candida. Tested positive for mold toxicity and possible sibo.

Michael: Hi Dr Cabral, what would cause someone to wake up about every 2 hours at night to frequently urinate?

Anonymous: Hi there! Thank you for all the great work that you do! It has made a huge impact on my life. I have been working on improving my gut health for almost 4 months now and I have noticed some improvements. I realized that i am extremely sensitive to lectins. I have always been but i never knew they had a name. So what i'm wondering is, can i still use oils from lectin-heavy nuts or seeds on my skin? Things like sunflower or chia seed oil? I am also trying to resolve a histamine issue that I have which came as a result of my leaky gut. So while i have eliminated high histaminr foods for a while, i am noy sure if i can still use them topically e.g with avocado hair masks. I look forward to your insights!

Jade: Hello, I have recently come out of having 4 months of antibiotics in hospital, plus have also come off my contraception; the hormone coil. Obviously this has sent me hrmones and metabolism into chaos, I feel so puffy and bloated and lethargic. I am such a healthy person, eat well and exercise and I can barely get out of bed! I am about to start a liver cleanse, but would you recommned this and can you suggest anything else to help? 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!

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:

Richard: Hi Dr. Cabral, I have recently been looking for a new blender and it seems like much to my surprise, all the descent premium or high end blenders have a plastic jar. After some time of doing research I had decided on purchasing the ninja but then found out that the jar of this particular blender is plastic. This is really concerning to me because it's something that I use everyday and I don't want to be ingesting chemicals from the plastic. I know a lot of these blenders claim that the plastic is BPA free but from what I understand, when BPA is not used they use other chemicals that are just as bad if not worse than BPAs. I also mix in hot water for my morning smoothies to warm them up a bit since I use a lot of frozen fruits so that would make things more problematic. I also use hot water to clean the blender since sometimes there are stains I need to remove. Is this a legitimate concern or am I missing something here? I would love to hear your thoughts on this and some potential alternatives. Thank you for all your help, it is much appreciated!

Kristen: Hello! I've learned and been helped so much through you! After a "virus" my chest feels so much pressure, I went to a cardio dr and all checks out. I do have MTHFR I read that " Homozygous variants, and some heterozygotes, may see a decrease in the metabolic pathway that converts folate and folic acid (vitamin Bs) into active forms. There can be a build up of homocysteine (amino acid) which has been linked to cardiovascular issues. " I'm trying to turn over every leaf to get to the bottom of the random pressure when I lay down. Is It possible they are related or is there a connection with either one of these issues. I've done 5 protocols in over a year with significant improvement! To which I'm soo grateful to you and your staff!

Darren: Good day Dr Cabral. I see un ayurveda, they extol the benefits of ghee. I use it but recently started looking at the nutrition facts label and all the grass fed New Zealand based ghee brands I have seen say they contain some trans fat. Is pure grass-fed ghee of transfat concern? ? If ghee has trans-fat, why is ghee called healthy? Or is it a misperception given New Zealand is often touted as favoured by nature when making milk, with a climate, soils, and plentiful water that generate an ideal environment for growing healthy grass and New Zealand livestock access open pasture year-round, meaning space to roam and follow their natural affinity outdoors. Care to make us understand? Thank you

Lori: Hi, I am considering enrolling in your certification program. I am wondering, however, how to utilize it to practice legally in IL and many other states where it seems only an RD or CNS are allowed to make nutritional recommendations to clients. Thank you! ~Lori

Hazel: Im at a loss for breakfast I have high oxalates, a latex alergy and spontaneous uticaria/ dermatographia. I am following your mediteranean diet Many thanks. I listen to all your podcasts

Cody: Hi Dr. Cabral - I get acid reflux, mild diarrhea, and intestinal pain on my left side when I eat mildly spicy or citrus foods. I was curious if I had H Pylori, and I did a stool test and upper endoscopy which both came back negative. I also did an organic acid test which showed high levels of yeast. Before I start the CBO protocol, I decided to try some supplements targeted towards H Pylori just in case due to my symptoms. I've been taking Manuka honey, 1/2 cup cabbage juice, and L. Reuteri. I was fine for 2 weeks, but I'm now starting to get intestinal pain on my left side. I was planning to add mastic gum, but I've put that on hold now. Would you recommend stopping the H Pylori supplements and starting the CBO protocol? Compared to the CBO protocol, I've taken much less potent antimicrobials/antifungals in the past which started out fine but then gradually gave me intestinal pain. This is what led me to trying a treatment targeted towards H Pylori, which testing says I don't have, in the hope that it would allow me to tolerate the CBO protocol better, but I'm already having pain which I suspect is from the strength of the Manuka honey. In addition, zinc supplements give me intestinal pain, but I also take DGL licorice which is fine. Thank you for your time and advice.

Does the future of exercise come in pill form?

Today I want to share with you some new research that lends insight into the connection between exercise and hunger that could pave the way to producing a pill that provides similar benefits to exercise…

And while I am all for scientific advancement, I feel there are some key health benefits to exercise and moving our bodies that may not have been taken into account.

Join me on today's #CabralConcept 2358 where I go over exactly what this research shows and why I think exercise is still the best medicine – Enjoy the show and let me know what you thought!

There are many reasons someone may choose to take oral contraceptives…

Whether it be to prevent pregnancy, reduce PCOS symptoms, balance hormones, or a variety of other reasons.

It's not my place to be telling you what you should and should not be doing, but as an Integrative Health Practitioner I feel it is important that we address the dangers of taking birth control and what to watch out for if you choose to use it.

So on today's #CabralConcept 2357 I want to go over what your doctor won't tell you about the dangers of oral contraceptives/birth control – Enjoy the show and let me know what you thought!
