The Cabral Concept

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:

Lauren: Hi there! I have had a cold for almost 2 months now. I'm a breastfeeding mom 4 months postpartum. So I know I can't take a lot of things and my sleep recovery isn't the best. I thought I was over it but still had mucus congestion. Constantly blowing my nose & the mucus would be bright yellow. I've been taking a lot of immunity supplements, teas, and doing sauna every so often. Just yesterday I randomly started loosing my voice and now have a very sore throat. Any advice? Thanks!

Kristen: Dr. Cabral, A few months ago I had a fever blister break out on the left side of my face. Even now after the blister has fully healed, I can still feel tingling on the left side of my face, near my left ear, similar to when an outbreak is about to occur but no new blister has emerged. I also currently have a cold and only the left side of my face feels "sick" - only my left ear hurts, only the left side of my throat hurts. I also have been dealing with double vision issues for years, and a recent CT scan showed inflammation of the muscles in my left eye. Could all of this be related to the virus that causes fever blisters since it's all only on the one side of my face that I had the blister? If it is viral, how can I get rid of the virus for good? I am willing to try anything!

Kelly: Hi Dr. Cabral- thank you so much for your open source naturopathy podcast! I have lipedema, and while research on the condition is slim, it is being suggested that women with lipedema can try taking 600-1200mg guaifenisin (more commonly known as Mucinex) two times per day because it apparaently helps to break down of the adipose tissue associated with lipedema, which is otherwise diet and exercise resistent. I take no other medications, but I started taking 600mg twice per day because the double dose made me dizzy. I am wary of taking a pharmaceutical drug that has side effects including kidney stones. Can you provide any information on the mechanism in which a mucus thinning medication would break down stubborn fat?

Shelly: Helllo. Wanted to ask about deficiencies in sex hormones and poor gut health. I lost my period when put on birth control (BC) at age 17 and it doesn't come back unless on BC but I stopped BC over 6 years ago. My estrogen and progesterone has been super low and I have had lots of stomach issues like bloating and constipation along with weight gain. Every time I seem to resolve my gut it always comes back. No one has told me that I need to fix my hormones first. I'm now on BHRT and feel better with more energy and hoping with balanced hormones my gut will start to repair itself.

Emma: Hello Dr. Cabral, thank you for being my #1 reference with all things holistic & natural health. I listen every day & was able to uncover underlying health dis-eases stemming from your teachings on this podcast! :) What are your thoughts on meridian testing? What about German New Medicine? Do you believe either have validity ? I've been working with a consultant for 2 months but don't feel a difference yet. Thank you in advance.

There are numerous signs that could be linked to Alzheimer's…

However, one specific early sign has been noted as a true indicator, and I want to share that with you today.

Additionally, I want to discuss some other signs to watch for, some of which are important to keep note of but could also be correlated with higher levels of stress and cortisol.

So join me on today's Cabral Concept 3051, where I'll go over the earliest sign of Alzheimer's, so you know what to look for. Enjoy the show, and please share your thoughts with me.

So if you are dealing with a viral-based issue or some other kind of pathogen, I want to share with you the reasons why fasting should help you boost your immune system and improve your overall health.

I love exploring new health technologies and sharing ways you can use them for early health detection.

While mammograms have long been the gold standard in breast cancer screening, I believe they come with certain risks that are not always discussed by your doctor.

Fortunately, there have been major advancements in technology, offering alternative and safer methods for breast cancer screening.

So on today's Cabral Concept 3049, I want to share with you four ways to screen for breast cancer and discuss what I believe is the best option. Enjoy the show, and let me know your thoughts!

Over the past two decades I have been fortunate enough to have overseen hundreds of thousands of client appointments-

Almost every one of them, myself included, has said the same thing during their first consult...

The problem is this one line can be one of the biggest hinderances to healing.

So today I want to share with you the one recurring issue I hear and how it can hinder progress and success.

Join me on today's Cabral Concept episode 3048 as we discuss the biggest mistake I see almost every client make and what you can do instead. Enjoy the show, and let me know your thoughts!

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…

Nishan: It is extremely rare to find a genuine healer in this day and age. I am still trying to filter through the massive amounts of lies and deception regarding the prostate. Our food and water supply is saturated with chemicals and hormone disruptors. What can I take that will neutralize and eliminate all the crap in my body and rebalance my hormones ? Is there something that will shrink the prostate and crush the multi million dollar industry that's making money off of this illness that is plaguing men ?

Anonymous: I have listened to all your podcasts on both allergies and EBV/viruses. I am in the recovery phase from getting EBV in Dec 2023 (27 yo F, had 104+°F fever for 14+ days). I follow all your protocols and have been trying best to support my recovery. However, the allergens here have been hitting me very severely since getting EBV and causing alot of inflammation. I want to try sublingual allergy drops but want to know your advice for when it would be best to start them in relation to my recovery? Could I start them now, or would it be too much for my immune system to handle? If not, what would be a good indication from my body for when I might be ready to start them? I deeply appreciate all you do for this community

Anonymous: Good morning! Could you please do a podcast going over the differences between cryotherapy vs cold plunges and the unique benefits of each (and who each method might benefit or contraindications)? For example, I notice that cryo makes me feel very relaxed during and afterwards and helps alot with my stress and inflammation - however, cold plunges are a huge stressor on my nervous system and make my stress hormones increase (which I don't feel from cryo). Even though they are both cold therapies, there appear to be differences in how they affect the body, since one provides me benefit whereas the other does not (for me personally). Could you please explain this?

Kimberly: Hello Dr. Cabral, Am I allowed to include black, green and greek olives in my first 21 days? (minus the first 2 liquid diet days of each week) of course. I look forward to beginning my 21 day detox this coming Monday. Thank you, Kimberly

Tin: I am 15 weeks pregnant and I am taking my time to learn more about prenatal and maternity health. I'm curious what are your thoughts about Oral Glucose Tolerance Test? It usually contains 75g of sugar in the solution and taken after fasting. I'm a bit concerned about this much sugar plus the colorings added to that. My OB said this is required to test for gestational diabetes but heard that test can come out false and inaccurate. My FBS and HbA1c are all good, I take supplements and workout, so I think I have low risk. What are other alternatives for this that has less risk to my body? Thank you again for all that you do.

Senna: Hi doctor Cabral, I live in Europe and the European Unition has new rules for retinol usage. They have set a maximum concentration of 0.3% for facial products and 0.05% for body products, in order to mitigate potential health risks associated with excessive retinol exposure. Do you know why they did this, and what these health risks are. I love using my 1% retinol serum and am pretty alarmed by this. Thanks so much for your answer!

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:

May: Dr. Cabral, I highly trust and appreciate your opinion. Can you please share your opinion on contraceptives and explain the difference, drawbacks, short and long term side effects, risks and effectiveness. I am deciding between pills, copper IUD, hormonal IUD. What's the best option? Thank you

Al: Hello Doctor Cabral, what do you suggest for strep throat? Almost every year I suffer from it and I've red about Biocidin throat spray, nastrium tincture, gargling colloidal silver. Are there any effective alternatives to antibiotics, which I don't want to take? Can you share a specific strep throat protocol that you would use if you had such bacterial infection. Thank you very much for your expertise, it means a lot.

Jo: My recent blood work shows low red and white blood cell counts ( just below the green normal levels). Should I be concerned? All other blood markers were within the normal limits. Iron levels are normal. I am 60 years old. Also, I have had a fissured tongue for as long as I can remember, not painful, and no known allergies. Any idea what this could mean?

Kristen: Hi Dr. Cabral! I recently started listening to your podcast because I have been dealing with digestive and bladder issues for over 5 years. I am a 37 year old female. I eat well and exercise regularly. My digestive symptoms recently worsened and I began having left abdominal pain on the inferior margin of my ribs. A CT scan was negative. H. Pylori breath, stool and culture with upper endoscopy were all negative. An upper endoscopy revealed gastric myoplasia on biopsy. I also have on and off bladder irritation. It feels like I have to urinate and I don't. I feel like this is all related. I listened to your podcast on ulcers and began doing twice a day cabbage juice and doing an antihistamine diet. My symptoms stabilized a bit but have not resolved. Please advise on what to do. Thank you!

Greg: Dear Dr. Cabral, Thank you for your effort to promote a more holistic approach to living. I am a U.S. Foreign Service Officer in a U.S. Embassy overseas and find health management a bit more challenging, including taking advantage of the testing options, etc. available to those in the US. I recently started statins and a few days later listened to episode #2958 (Medications and Drugs that Drain Your Energy). I was particularly moved by your discussion on how statins can reduce mitochondrial health in the heart (just the heart?). For those that have hereditary reasons to stay on statins, what can we do, beyond lifestyle (food/exercise), to mitigate/promote/preserve mitochondrial health of the heart (and body generally) that may be affected by statins? Thank you again, Greg
