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…

Let's get started!

Cara: Hi Dr. Cabral, I am one of your IHPs and unfortunately it always seems like it's more difficult when we're addressing our own health concerns. In May my father passed away and this was onto of many other stressors. At that time I developed a quarter size rash on both my hips. It took a couple weeks to go away but then an insatiable itching took it's place. This has been going on for 7 months now. If I have a compromised gut due to stress, I have no other symptoms so Im not sure if thats a place to start investigating. The itching usually happens twice a day. I have done a 7 day FM detox during this time and no improvement. I also had a colonic 2 weeks ago and there was no candida or parasites. Please point me in the right direction. I cannot afford my own personal health coach at this time... I'm a newly single mom and trying to figure it all out in the most precarious of times. Thank you Dr. Cabral for all you do!!

Mike: Hello. Wondering what the investment is to work with Stephen Cabral and how his waiting list is? Thank you Mike

Kica: Hello Dr. Cabral, My husband has been suffering from chronic pain for the last 7 years. He's about 53 years of age now. It started with a bad cold he got from our son and since then he's never been the same. He's had all sorts of test done, seen neurologist, taken antidepressants. By the western medics standers he's a health man. On top of all this , physical activity makes him feel worse. The only thing he can do is walk. So he doesn't have a way of releasing his stress by sweating it off. He also has mild sleep apnea. He recently told me he never feels good. It's very sad. He's a very bright man! Before we make the financial commitment, as I'm sure your services are not covered by insurance, I was wondering if you can help him. Do you have any cases like this? I also, would like to understand better your approach. Is it nutrition and vitamins? He's tried cleanings and detox but it has not made a difference on his pain at all. Looking forward to hearing back from you.Best, Kica

Flossie: Since the first time I heard you on Allison Melody's podcast Food Heals, I have been hooked to your podcasts. Your story is extremely inspiring and you have a wealth of knowledge. Your story inspired me to write my book "Village Vibes" on my story on reversing an autoimmune disease. I am looking to raise up my low Vitamin D levels of 18 that was recently tested to the recommended 50 -70. What are your recommendations especially because I have a history of HTN. Thank you Flossie

Carla: Hey Dr Cabral, thank you so much for everything that you do. Well all truly appreciate your dedication to help others. My question is regarding my husband, he's 30 (pitta body type) and EXTREMELY fidgety. I've never met anyone as fidgety as he is and it is extremely irritating not only for the people around him but for himself as well. He has done various 21 day functional medicine detox and has just finished month 3 of the CBO finisher after completing the CBO. He takes the daily foundational protocol level 3 every single day with the additional of balanced zinc, full spectrum magnesium and adrenal soothe. His nutrition is based on your recommendations and he exercises more days than not. Any advice would be much appreciated! Thanks!

Arthur: I believe I've been suffering from mercury poisoning, from my 12 amalgam fillings, most of my life. I mean suffering. I've recently had half of them safely removed (SMART) and the rest soon. Mercury in my blood was at 11, but I feel there is a lot of mercury in my cells and it has started affecting my organs and especially my brain. I need a detox program. I'm a little worried about doing it wrong. So, where should I start?

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:

Susan: Hi Dr. Cabral- thanks so much for sharing your natural health expertise with all of us. I especially appreciate your focus on the important things in life-family, helping others, health, vitality and purpose. My 80 year old mother has been slowing losing weight. After eating she needs to have a bowel movement right away. This has made her not want to eat as much and she is avoiding socializing more and more. She does have a few alcoholic drinks each day. Could this be the cause or something else? Thank you.

Ryan: thoughts on xylitol to benefit the oral bacterial environment and overall oral health?

Kirstin: Hi Dr. CabralI work in health care and have the option to receive the mRNA vaccination from Pfizer that is finishing trials now (likely before January 1). My masters is in public health so I am torn about receiving a vaccination that has No peer reviewed literature and is still technically "exploratory". I believe in vaccinations but this one is so rushed, has no peer review, has a relatively small sample on a global scale, and an MRNA vaccination has never been approved by the FDA (not that I really even trust the FDA). I was hoping you could help me decide to get the vaccination or not it should be available to me through my work in the next few weeks. Any input would be hugely helpful.Ps- I just finished my IHPL1 (yay) and working on L2You are awesome and I trust your expertise over anyone's. Thanks a million, happy holidays Kirstin

Patricia: Hi, just listened to podcast 1764. In reference to Essiac tea, I had read in healthline, to avoid using if you had breast cancer. May stimulate growth of breast cancer cells. Is this true? Thank you

Diane: Hi Dr Cabral Ive been listening to your podcast for about 2 years and have read the Rain Barrel Effect. Your podcast are the highlight of my day and your book has been life changing.My question is about consuming Flax seed. I am in my 60's and have lived my life constipated and rarely having a bowel movement. 7 years ago i started consuming 2-3 heaping (utensil) teaspoons of freshly ground organic flaxseed right before i consume my meals. Even before my DNS shake. This has changed my life. I have regular bowel movements, NOT diarrhea. I cant believe how good i feel and realize how awful i felt. My question is would taking this amount of flax with meals and supplements prevent my body from absorbing nutrients from food and supplements. I praying the answer Is I can continue as I do, I dont think I can live without my Flax..and I'm so proud of my BM's LOL. thanks

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…

Let's get started!

Freddy: In general, not looking for specific advice, do you recommend plant based or vegan dieters supplement with choline and/or carnitine? Both tend to be lacking in plant foods but there are studies that show too much choline and carnitine can lead to the toxic compound TMAO. You always have such a balanced perspective on things so your thoughts on this subject are much appreciated. All the best, Freddy

Tommy: If someone is low on elastase in a stool test, what should do the person be doing to improve it? Unsure if digestion problems is from low pancreatic enzymes or SIBO related.

Bettina: Dear Dr Stephen Cabral As always thank you for all the work that you do and for sharing all your knowledge. My husband is Italian, and he has something called anemia mediterranea. I understand that it is not exactly Beta-thalassemia nor is it Alpha-thalassemia. Have you heard of anemia mediterranea before and is there anything you suggest for people with this? Anything for him to be careful of or to make sure to do? I have tried searching through you podcasts but only found two podcasts on thalassemia but nothing on anemia Mediterranean. I wish you all the best,Bettina

Scott: Hi Dr Cabral, Thanks for all of the information you supply and the work you and your team do. I came across your Man Fuel Diet, is this something you would still recommend or would you make any adjustments to this from when it was first created? Thanks

Hailey: Hi Dr Cabral, first of all thank you so much for all your knowledge and willingness to help others. You've taught me a lot and Because of you I no longer struggle with asthma, allergies, and I have reversed my diagnosed PCOS. My life changed because of your book only for the better! My question is: Could it be possible that a food that is anti viral/antibacterial or very detoxing can cause an inflammitory response to show up on the IgG food sensitivity test (For exam a food that is causing a release of toxins via die off.) My second question is can you explain why our food sensitivities can change and how often most people should then rerun a food sensitivity test? Once again thank you, Hailey

Darren: Good day Dr Cabral. Even though I mostly download and listen to your podcast while I am driving, I commend you on the YouTube initiative. By time you read this we'll be well within the new year, so best wishes to you, your family and staff. My question has to do with Brazil nuts. Is it true that if you eat more than 3 or so per day you're highly susceptible to selenium poisoning? I enjoy them but I've never seen any warning on any package. On that note, are there other nuts, seeds, herbs or supplements that you can list off the top of your head, that we should be wary of the upper daily limit? Like those we may use daily. Prosper!

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:

Ryan: With regards to D3 supplementation and vitamin K2, how important is it to get K2 if you're supplementing D3? If I'm taking 5000IU of D3 daily, but am not getting K2 from supps or eating organ meats or grass-fed butter etc... do you think that could be an issue? Does taking magnesium and eating a well-rounded diet offset this potential issue? With the food sources of K2 being what they are, surely hardly anyone is getting much K2. What are the work arounds or other factors involved here? Or should I just make sure to get a K2 supp?

Mike: Hi Dr. Cabral how often should someone use a infrared sauna for mold toxicity or heavy metal toxicity? Thank you.

Sara: Hi Dr Cabral! Thank you so much for all your amazing content and giving us the opportunity to learn so much and so deeply about the body and mind! I am today writing for a friend. I tried finding podcast about this (when looking for health-answers I always first go to your podcast), but without luck. My question is regarding rematoid arthritis and which underlying imbalances to focus on the heal or at least minimize the pain, stiffness and swollen joints? She is not yet diagnosed, but as I am a nurse, it seems like that's what it is. Never the less it's definite that she has inflammation and a lot of pain and being swollen in the joints and the high pain also seem to come in waves. I've guided her to make changes in the diet and with lifestyle to increase gut health and lower inflammation and she also tried MSN, Glycogen, Collagen, Magnesium to help the joint-health. But anyway, I would like to know more on how to address and guide her to a more balanced life if this actually is reumatoid arthritis? Thank you so much for your help and guidance!

Lara: Hi, dr. Cabral, you amazing soul :) I heard of some benefits of using the mushroom ganoderma but I always have to check it up with you, hehe.. you are my go-to on all things health.. so please explain more about it if you can.. I have fibromyalgia, but I'm sure information could also help others.. Thank you so much for everything you do, much love to you, your family and everyone trying to heal.

Carolyn: Hello Dr. Cabral, My son and I were patients of yours a few years back and you were very helpful!!! I am hoping you can help once again! I just found out I am positive homozygous APOE, and I am terrified, as my mother has dementia. You have mentioned the benefits of Ashwaganda, but I have read where it is not recommend for people with autoimmune issues. (I have Hashimotos, and Sjogrens.) Should I still take it? Thank you, and God Bless! Carolyn

Cory: Hi Dr Cabral, my 4 week old is currently being tested for hirschsprung's disease. While we wait for test results and maybe surgery, the surgeon has prescribed 4 bowel irrigation's a day. It seems excessive and I worry that she'll lose muscle tone and become dependent on the irrigation to have a bowel movement. Are there natural ways to manage hirschsprung's disease? Thank you.
