The Cabral Concept

Low-carb diets might help you lose weight… but at what cost? While low-carb and keto-style diets may offer short-term results for weight loss and body transformation, the latest research shows that these approaches can come with serious long-term health consequences. In this episode, I want to break down two major studies that shed light on the potential dangers of restricting carbs for too long—and what balanced eating really looks like for longevity. Join me on today's Cabral Concept 3373 as we discover if long-term, low-carb diets cause early death. 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…

Nicolas: Hello, thanks for all that you do! I'm curious as to what sorts of questions should we be asking farmers market vendors about their farming practices. Anything specific beyond the broad category of organic - such as ones about actionable, specific practices related to soil health, pest management, fertilization, etc that are most telling? Bryan: Hi Dr C. Sorry for the 20 questions and I don't expect an answer to every single inquiry but I was curious to know your thoughts on a toothbrush called the AutoBrush. Have you heard of it and do you think it's as effective as a standard toothbrush? I think it's approved by the ADA and seems to cut down on the time it takes to brush your teeth. Just wondering if you had an opinion. Thanks, Bryan: Hi Dr Cabral, this is more of a request than a question but I heard you talking on a past episode about a "healthier" kind of Bluetooth earbud. Something about a strap if memory serves. I wanted to ask if you could possible add whatever wireless earbuds you believe in or recommend to your Resources page. It would mean a lot. Thank you and take care. Tommy: i Stephen, I'm an IHP2. Low cortisol morning and noon, and low end of cortisol evening and night. I play soccer, and lift weights, but my body just can't handle stress. Had a lot of trauma, 3 operations by the time I was 8, Scizophrenic mum, moved out at age 9, developed insomnia by age 12 and autoimmune disease, and 14 years of steroid cream use which I believe played a big part in the low cortisol. Considering taking 3 months off training but I'm scared of losing muscle, fitness and having to tell my team mates that I'm injured as they won't understand that I need to build my cortisol back up Eleazar: Hello there first of all i wanna thank you for all the information u give on these podcasts i truly appreciate it. My question is can autoimmune disease completely reverse like when u didn't have the disease or do u have to manage them forever even naturally and will u have to avoid certain foods forever like gluten i ask u this because it confuses me because it took years of bad lifestyle and diet to cause autoimmune but it seems like once u have the disease all it takes is eating something once and u get a flare up quickly.

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:

Bryan: Hi Dr. Cabral. Dunno if there's a limit to how many questions I can ask but I'll try not to be too much of a pest with the house calls. Almost every single morning I seem to wake up with tears and "crud" around my eyes. Often when I yawn in bed. Did a search online and dry eyes kept coming up as the culprit. Maybe you've answered this one before but do you agree? Is there anything I can do about it? I usually put Omega 3 drops in my eyes before bed and thought they would take care of any dry eyes in morning but I guess not. Appreciate any tips or natural remedies you think might help this problem. Thanks, Bryan: Hi Dr. C. About a year ago I did a Barium swallow test and was diagnosed with a slow gut and mild esophagus dysmotility. Took about 4+ hours for the barium I drank to pass into my stomach when for most people it takes like an hour or less. My gastroenterologist told me I had a "slow gut" and taking milk of magnesia before bed would help. Results have been just so-so. Wrote in before but want to let you know I do appreciate all your work and renaissance style approach to all things related to health and wellness. Best, Katie: Please discuss your thoughts on Demodex mites. Especially possibly affecting eyes or skin? Ways to improve if necessary Bob: Hi Dr Cabral I been listening to you for a few years on and off and really have a learned a lot from through your podcasts. My question is regards to kids. I have a son that is turning 7 this month and I was wondering what tests and also basic supplements I should be giving him. I remember with adults you say there is a level 1, 2 ,3 of supplements all depending on how far you want to take it. Do you have recommendations for kids on maintaining their health and making sure they get what they need and how often and which tests to run annually. Thanks and appreciate all you do for us Kay: Dear Dr. Cabral, I am an IHP student and really love your modules and teaching approach! I'm writing because I have been on a very low dose of testosterone cypionate (25 mg/mL) 30 cc's subcutaneous injection every 10 days for the last several years. I am 59 years of age and I have a petite frame and build. My physician prescribed it to help with bone density, muscle retention and libido. My question is- if I wish to no longer take testosterone, what kinds of supplements can you recommend to target those areas? I really prefer to not have exogenous hormones if at all possible. Thank you, 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! - - -
