3928: New Hair ReGrowth Trials, MRI Brain Scan, Niacin Skin Flushing, Cancer Blood Tests, Growth Development (HouseCall)

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: 

 

Matt: Hi Dr Cabral, I was just listening to your podcast on the future of hair loss. There are 3 compounds in Ph 2 and Ph 3 trials that seem to show real promise. PP-405, KX-826 and Breezula (Clascoterone). Curious on your thoughts with these? Could these be the final pieces to the puzzle?      Alicja: Hi Dr.Cabral, I heard you once on older podcast saying that MRI scans can detect early Alzheimer signs. I had my scan done with Prenuvo a few months ago. I went back to my results, but I'm not sure what should I look for as early Alzheimer detection. The scan shows I have a small arachnoid cyst in my brain. Nothing to worry about they said. Also one other image of my brain shows "mucosal thickening" on one side. (They didn't say anything about that) Is that what I should be concerned about when it comes to Alzheimer? Is there something I can do about it? Maybe proteolytic enzymes could help? Thank you so much for spreading your knowledge. I appreciate your help with my question.       Sarah: Hello! I've seen people talk about taking the flushing Niacin for skin health due to NAD production, working up to 3mg a day. Thoughts on this? Ive been taking 500mg and get a pretty intense flush but I dont mind it. Thank you!!       Patricia: What is your take on the blood test to detect cancer calked Caris detect.       Will: Hi dr Cabral, I am 15 and wanted to know your thoughts on instagram influencers who claim that 80% of your growth is genetic and 20% is controlled by your sleep and nutrition. Do you think this is true? Besides the daily foundation support, omegas, and vitamin D, is there any other supplement that helps growth? 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!    - - -

3922: GLPs & Detox, Testing While on GLP, Traditional vs Infrared Sauna, Root Cause of Bipolar Disorder, Blue Zones Diet (CHC)

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…

 

Tricia: Hi Dr Cabral - after struggling with this decision for over a year I have finally given in to trying a GLP. Yes, I'm nervous but I honestly have lost all hope as I've tried everything, and my willpower continues to fail me. Can I ask while on a GLP can we still perform quarterly detoxes? Also, would you recommend your hair support or thyroid supplement while on this medication? Thank you so much for all your support and guidance.       Tricia: Hi Dr Cabral - sorry me again. I forgot to ask you do you think I should do regular testing on my thyroid and other markers every few months while I'm on the GLP? If I see any markers sliding the wrong way I will immediately stop the drug. How do you support your patients that are on a GLIP? Thank you!!!      Danny: Hi Dr. Cabral, I have access to both a traditional and infrared sauna. What is the idea number of times that I should have in both per week? Thank you!       Amanda: Hi Dr. Cabral. Thank you so much for your dedication to helping so many people. You are a blessing to our family for sure! My question is about bipolar disorder. I would love to hear your thoughts on it as far as root causes and also what can help correct the imbalance or even help it. I also was researching protein kinase c in relation to bi polar disorder and also the role/benefit of lithium in relation to that. It was something I came across while researching. Sometimes I wonder if certain prescription medications for bi polar cause more harm than good in the long term. My husband has generalized anxiety and depression and also bipolar. He is on medication for all. Have you seen people be able to get off meds? Any hope you can offer is so appreciated. Thank you.       Lily: Hi Dr. Cabral, I recently read a book about the blue zones. I have two questions about it. 1. The book mentioned that most people in the blue zones eat a diet of about 95% vegetarian. Would you agree that this is probably the healthiest diet for most people? 2. The book also mentioned that people eat a lot of tofu. Is this a healthy choice? I have heard conflicting things because of the soy content. 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!

3921: Poor Circulation, Nutrition for Dogs, Fear of Unknown, Acupuncture Benefits, Fasted Workouts (CHC)

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: 

 

Lena: Hi Dr. Cabral, Thank you for giving us the opportunity to ask questions. I really appreciate it. I have a thin endometrium lining that has been incredibly challenging to thicken during the IVF process. I also have cold hands and feet. My Thyroid is within normal range. What could be the cause of my poor circulation and how can I fix it? Thank you!!      Berry: Hi Doc, I am just curious if you have come upon any new research or interesting updates on dog nutrition and health. I have loved your previous podcasts on the topic and am always looking for ways to support and improve my dog's health. thank you!     Anonymous: Hi- I really want to do the full body MRI but I have this fear of finding out something terrible that I am just going to worry about and/or that I can't do anything about. My brain tells me that I should do it because of the obvious preventative reasons but bmy fear is holding me back. I wanted to get your thoughts/perspective as this is a real issue I deal with and it is not limited to just this.       Mia: Hi Dr. Cabral, I am just curious, what issues do you think acupuncture is best at treating? I have seen ads for cosmetic acupuncturist. Is it possible to get rid of wrinkles through acupuncture? Thank you!      Audrey: Hi Dr. Cabral, I've been testing my blood sugar regularly. Working out in a fasted state first thing in the morning (12 hrs overnight fasted) raises my blood sugar. does this kick me out of fasting and do I lose the benefits of fasting even if I'm not eating or drinking anything? Does working out during a prolonged fast, say 36 hrs, cause the body to lose muscle? They say ketones are created and the ketones help mitigate muscle loss       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!      - - -

3915: Favorite Berries, Weight Loss After Pregnancy, Fueling For CrossFit, Creatine & Gut Health, Ascending Aorta (HouseCall)

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…

 

Lena: Hi Dr. Cabral, Thank you so much for being a teacher to all of us. On your podcast, I have enjoyed learning about different berries. I am just curious, what are your favorite 5 or 6 berries? Thank you!       Raina: Hi Dr. Cabral! I am 15 mos postpartum.. I havnt lost a single lb since the initial weight loss after birth which was 25lbs. I've been sitting at 200 lbs.. doesn't go up, doesn't go down. I have more belly fat than I've ever had. It's def been a rough year, stress has for sure been high, sleep has only just now started getting better. I wrote in a year ago to ask for tips on what to do.. Id say diet is 7/10 … interm. fast for 14 hrs. I've been walking 2-3 miles 4-5x a week, strength training has been less consistent. I'm tryin to balance pushing myself to exercise and knowing what I can physically + mentally handle during this time. I hate what I see in the mirror, hate how I feel. Wish I could detox but don't want to stop bf yet. There has got to be something more I can do. I'm desperate.       Anonymous: Hi Dr. Cabral! I am a 27yo female at 5'9 and 190lbs. My health history consists of no issues other than the many years of yoyo dieting and weight loss/gain. This year I discovered my love of CrossFit training after many years of trying workouts that never lasted long. My issue is I do not think I am fueling correctly. I know that I am getting adequate calories for the day (while staying in a deficit) but do not think they are being timed correcting. My current routine is 7am wake up, 8am workout, first meal at 1PM, stop eating at 8PM, bed at 10PM. I listened to podcast #3883 and decided I am not fueling correctly after my workouts and maybe not even before the workout for how intense CrossFit is. Any advice on how to optimize my fueling and recovery?       Jenna: I have an autoimmune disease and a horrible gut right now. I was thinking of taking creatine to lean out but would you advise me not to do that? What are your thoughts on creatine?       Matt: Hi Dr Cabral, I had an episode of AFIB in April and during my cardiac workout they found I have an ascending aorta of 4.0cm. This was one note that came up to follow up in a year. Cardiologist gave me no blood thinners and no restrictions. I haven't had an episode of AFIB since, according to all my tests the first month after (7-day holter monitor included) and my Apple watch ECG since then. I'm 45 years old, strength train 3 days per week and 2-3 1 hour jiujitsu classes. Is there anything I can do to reduce the chances of the ascending aorta getting larger, or ideally, anything I can do to tighten it up?

3914: HCL & Headaches, Fasting-Mimicking Diet & Cancer, Daily Proteolytic Enzymes, Fascia & MCAS, Sneezing (HouseCall)

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: 

 

Christine: Been taking HCl pro-zyme roughly 5 years. Been taking various herbs off and on about 6 or 7 years for different worms, parasites, etc. All this with functional doctor. Is it normal to need HCL that long? Sometimes I am bloated even with HCL. How can I move forward to no longer need it? I am eager to try the CBO protocol but doc says I have another parasite so need to deal with that first. Also, for over a year now, I have had a headache every day. Could the Betaine HCL be a cause? Or just the stress of treating for worms/parasites so many years? Have tried to take magnesium more than once but it makes me groggy the entire next day to the point of being unsafe to drive. Looking for your thoughts on both the HCL and the headaches. Headaches in both temples if that helps.       Anonymous: Good day Dr.Cabral, you mentioned once the benefit of fasting-mimicking diet before chemo. Can you elaborate more on that? And also would fasting mimicking diet also work before immunotherapy, checkpoint inhibitor treatment? And what foods would you recommend to "break the fast" with? Thanks! Appreciate your work       Richard: Should proteolytic enzymes be taken daily?       Vanessa:  If you can click on this article, is this true??? Is fascia linked to MCAS?  https://tryfascial.com/pages/emerging-2026-research-is-pointing-to-a-new-root-cause-of-mcas-symptoms-1?tw_source=ig&tw_adid=120255096626070428&fbclid=PAYm9jbAUgGaNwZG9mAmZkaWQWUO-oNfKF1FO9R9x8dTTJGaXiYkvHX2V4dG4DYWVtATAAYWRpZAGrO1-XnyF8c3J0YwZhcHBfaWQPMTI0MDI0NTc0Mjg3NDE0AAGnmhKuUTUddDDJgnGsiHQQHllNw5eZH6KjwnwmrgayJTw_1HRQsYt13ttojBI_aem_Pl6MSo9G7UZcyuW2HenLmA&utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=paid&campaign_id=120254928531450428&ad_id=120255096626070428&utm_id=120254928531450428&utm_content=120255096626070428&utm_term=120255096626080428&utm_campaign=120254928531450428      Tracey: I am a 58 year old woman that is fairly healthy. For the past several years, I have fits of sneezing. I will sneeze at least 10 times in a row before it subsides. I notice that it mostly occurs when I have eaten too much at a meal; however, this is not the only time it happens. It is really annoying. My mother would also sneeze like this, although it was never associated with her meals. What do you think could be causing this? I have read your books and I listen to you every day and appreciate all you have taught me about being healthy.      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!    - - -

3908: Nattokinase & Plaque Build-Up, Natural Mosquito Repellent, Skincare for Teens, Low Blood Pressure, Aged Garlic Supplement (HouseCall)

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…

 

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!

 

Frank: I am a 68 year old male who lifts weights 4-5 days a week and does cardio exercise minimum 5 days a week. I am asymptomatic and my CAC score was 3189 and LPA 221. APOB 85. I was put on Plavix, baby aspirin and just started Repatha Injections, I couldn't handle Rouvastatin due to severe muscle spasms. I haven't fell so good in 20 years. I wanted to try your Proteolytic Enzymes due to the Nattokinase feature. I've read great things about Nattokinase lowering plaque buildup. I hope you can respond to this question, I listen to your podcast daily. You are to the point and honest, hard to find these days. Thank you Doc!       Anonymous: I live in Central Florida. Dengue Fever cases are on the rise! What are natural ways to repel mosquitoes? And if contracted, how can a person help their immune system recover faster? Thanks for all you do!!! (From a long time listener)       Nicole: What products would you recommend for face wash and face lotion for a 13 yr old asking to wear. Is the one skin you recommend safe for them to use? Thank you!       Anonymous: Hi, where would you start for low blood pressure? Ive been experiencing strings of low BP since January and the latest has lasted the longest (2 months). I've had blood tests, a brain MRI, heart monitoring/echocradiogram. My team doesn't have a good next step for me. I had surgery in January but I can't imagine that is still driving disregulation. I'm wondering about Botox but would love any suggestions. Thanks for all you do      Sheena: Hey Dr C! Hope you and your team are well. Quick question, Im 46 yo and in good health. Already on foundational 3 daily but would like to start take other 'preventative' supplements as well. I know your thoughts on nattokinase and serrapeptase but what about aged garlic? I understand they don't all work the same way but do help in the cardiovascular system. Can I take aged garlic along with the proteolytic enzymes? Also, I take an iron pill w/ vitamin C first thing in the am to boost my ferritin levels, can I take iron with the proteolytics as well? I don't want any to cancel each other out. what are your thoughts? thanks so much in advance!

3907: Shrink Granulomas, Flashing Lights in Eyes, Daily Supplements, Red Light Therapy, Hydrogen Tablets & Structured Water (HouseCall)

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: 

 

Kara: I am currently on the 21 day Liver detox. It is going great and I REALLY do feel much better. I recently saw a pulmonologist for raised ACE level. "Most likely granulomatous disease in the setting of prior fungal exposure" per doctor regarding the granulomas on my lungs/thyroid, not sarcoidosis. I am not certain, but have a very strong guess of when I was exposed to this fungus (almost 15 years ago). I currently have a diagnosis of Urticarial Vasculitis and Hemicranial Continua , among several other more common things. I am being treated for both of those from my specialists with Hydroxychloroquine and Indomethacin. My symptoms are well managed. My question for you is - Am I able to shrink or diminish these granulomas so that my body is not always on high alert /other diagnosis diminish?       Tanika: Hello, thank you for this opportunity to submit questions to you. Could you explain what it means when someone experiences a persistent flashing light in their left eye for over a decade? I have been to an ophthalmologist numerous times and they always say nothing is wrong.       Vanessa: I am becoming a coach through your institute!! What are all the supplements you take in a day? What are all the supplements that will enhance my memory and processing speed? (Thinking about going back to college after 3-4 years and want to get my doctorate in naturopathy, taking methelyne blue, lions mane, and creatine already) My hair is falling out. Read a study that antihistamine pills crushed up and applied topically to hair can help regrow it. (I am against them bc they 'cause dimensia' so, should I even do this?) I have bad MCas and histamine issues currently. I take dao enzyme And lastly, my friends dad has lymphoma has had chemo and starting CarT therapy. Should he come to you instead? Is this treatment good? How can he heal? Thank you so much you are my inspiration.      Karriann: I'm very interested in red light therapy but how do we really know if the light is really working? Do you recommend any lights to use at home? I've read that they can also help with weight loss.       Ellie: Hi Dr. Cabral, I listen to your podcast every morning! I love it! Its part of my morning routine and I have learned so much. Thank you for everything you do! I have two questions for you. #1 When you travel, do you use hydrogen tablets or hydrogen bottles or, do you just not drink hydrogen water when away. #2 What are your thoughts on structured water? 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!    - - -

3905: Cancer Reduced by 38% with One Supplement (TT)

One of the simplest nutrients in your daily routine may also play an important role in supporting your long-term health.     Emerging research is revealing potential connections between certain nutrients, healthy aging, immune function, inflammation, and cancer risk. But the benefits may depend on more than simply taking a supplement.     On today's show, I'm breaking down new research exploring one foundational nutrient and its potential role in reducing cancer risk, including findings related to advanced cancer and breast cancer.     I'll also explain why maintaining a healthy body weight may influence these outcomes, how this nutrient may support the body's natural defenses, and why testing your levels may be more valuable than simply guessing how much you need.     So join me on today's Cabral Concept 3905 to explore the research behind this important nutrient, what may influence its effectiveness, and how it could fit into your approach to long-term health.     Enjoy the show!

3902: Stop Negotiating With Yourself (MM)

We all have days when we feel tired, stressed, busy, or simply unmotivated.      But when we repeatedly change the commitments we made when we were thinking clearly, we can make it harder to build the consistency and self-trust needed to reach our goals.      On today's show, I'm sharing why making decisions in advance can help you follow through even when motivation fades, and how creating simple non-negotiables can make healthy habits easier to maintain.      I'll also explore some of the common ways we get in our own way when trying to build lasting change, and what it takes to keep moving forward when things don't go exactly as planned.     So join me on today's Cabral Concept 3902 to learn how to stop negotiating with yourself and start building greater consistency, discipline, and trust in yourself.

3901: DAO Enzymes, Omega-3 Benefits, CO2 Inhalation Therapy, Melatonin & Heart Health, Supplement Order (HouseCall)

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…

 

Nikki: Hi! Can you please help me in deciding if I should use the pork liver DAO enzyme or the pea version? I need to run the Big5 but waiting on funds. I have been dealing with histamine intolerance(random hives when lifting heavy objects or tight things on my skin, random itchy hands and feet) and have recently stopped taking metformin after 10 years. I learned through you that it can negatively impact histamine. I was taking it for PCOS but switched to Berberine and Inestitol. Also changing my diet. Doing more exercise. All that to say I would like to try and fix the histamine issues as much as I can until I can run these labs. Side note I believe it is gut related as I also deal with gastritis and recently stopped taking Protonics. No more medications other than Zyrtec for the itching!       Susanne: Some studies suggest that omega 3 supplements have negative effects. A recent longitudinal analysis using data from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative was published in eBioMedicine. It associated omega-3 supplementation with accelerated cognitive decline in older adults. There are also some studies noting increased risk of AFib and findings that the supplements don't have the cardiovascular protective benefits once thought. Can you please provide some insight of this? I always thought.the omega 3 supplements were beneficial. Now concerned about potential harm. Thank you for all you do!       Marlyse: I would like to know your thoughts on CO2 inhalation therapy. Thank you.      Tricia: Good morning, Dr Cabral - hope you and your family are well. I have a quick question regarding melatonin. I know there are amazing benefits to taking melatonin every evening. I heard a study was recently done by the American Heart Association and they said taking melatonin every evening created a 90% risk of heart failure in just one year. I wanted to get your opinion on this and should someone that is at high risk of heart disease not take melatonin? Thank you in advance.       Layla: Hi Dr Cabral, I have learned so much from your podcast and love the equilife supplements. I know that omegas should be taken with a fat. I have been wondering about the order. Should I eat the food containing fat first and then take the supplement, at the same time, or does it not matter? 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!

3900: Too Many Supplements, Iodine Deficiency, Sauna & Detox, Air Filter Recommendations, Supplements During Detox (HouseCall)

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: 

 

Sam: Hi Doc, Thank you for everything you do to help everyone! I've heard a few biohackers describe taking over 100 supplements a day. Is there a number where even if all the supplements are helpful, it would be too much- perhaps hard on the liver? Or, are endless supplements ok as long as they are all quality ? Thank you!       Larissa: Hello! Just wanted to state how grateful I am that you share your knowledge with the community! My question is regarding iodine deficiency. Aside from not eating seafood, are there other cause? I've noticed that despite supplementing, levels stay low. I read that heavy metals or toxins can bind to iodine, thus causing a deficiency? Would love your thoughts and advice. Thank you for all that you do!       Nicole: Is there any supplements I should take before or after sauna that will help me eliminate mycotoxins and heavy metals during a detox.       L: Hi, I'm wondering what your opinion is on the whole AirDoctor & AquaTru situation with Ideal Living CEOs Peter Spiegel and Katie Williams supporting and financing a child trafficking & abuse cult.. so many health influencers have broken ties with the company online but I haven't seen anything from you.. Secondly P&G recently bought the supplements brand Thorne.. do you still feel comfortable recommending it? I thought it was a safe option here in Europe but now I'm bot so sure anymore. Thank you, happy healing to everyone       Candy: When you do the 7 day detox, do you stop taking the supplements you currently take? Or continue taking the supplements you take in addition to the detox? Thanks      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!      - - -

3897: The Protein Paradox: Can Eating More Help You Get Leaner? (WW)

Protein is one of the most important nutrients to consider when you're working toward fat loss and body transformation.     But simply adding more protein to your diet doesn't automatically mean you'll lose more body fat. The right amount, timing, and overall balance can make a big difference in your results.     On today's show, I'm breaking down the "protein paradox" and why increasing protein can sometimes make it easier to eat less, stay fuller, and preserve lean muscle while losing body fat.     I'll share why protein can play such an important role in fat loss, how to approach it strategically, and what to consider when building a sustainable plan for your goals.     So join me on today's Cabral Concept 3897 to learn how to use protein strategically for fat loss and body transformation without making your diet unnecessarily restrictive.

3894: Berberine & Cancer, Lectin Avoidance Diet, Immunotherapy & Side Effects, Over-Active Immune System, Antidepressants & Weight Gain (HouseCall)

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…

 

Matthew: Hi Dr. Cabral-I just listened to your podcasts on the Berberine and cancer studies. Thank you for bringing it to us. I was curious if the same results could be seen with Dihydro berberine. I saw the chemical formula in the study was berberine hydrochloride which I believe is the same as the Berberine+ product. Does it make a difference? Do you have an opinion on Dihydro berberine? I am assuming you believe that hydrochloride is superior since it is used in Berberine+. Thank you       Selena: Is it good to followe a Lectin Avoidance Diet?       Anonymous: Good day Dr.Cabral, enjoy regularly watching your weekend "ask cabral". A family member of mine is doing immunotherapy for their HCC (hepatocellular carcinoma). Wondering how to deal with immune-related side effects, so far they are tolerating it but they said potential side-effects such as overactive immune system attacking organs is a concern. Please advise so we can prepare. Also what kind of supplements do you recommend if this was someone important to you. His A1c IS 5.4, Lipids good. but Liver enzymes are higher. I know you mentioned berberine, any others? Green tea? Thanks       Anonymous:  Hi Dr.Cabral, me again. Follow up to add to my previous question. Alternative to calm an over-active immune system instead of steroids (predinsone etc). I know the gut microbiome plays an important role. I watched a podcast by a well-known doctor saying that higher levels of Akkermansia Muncipallis help during immunotherapy and other treatment modalities. How can I increase akkermansia, can I just take a single strain probiotic of it? Worried consuming too much pomegrante juice (high in sugar) might not be ideal. Can't wait till your course for this topic is released. You mentioned working on a cancer-based course. Thank you always. You're a light in this space (longevity, wellness).       Jennifer: What is the chemical reason that antidepressants cause weight gain?

3893: Gut/Brain Connection & Behavior, High CRP, Product Recommendations, High Oxalate Foods, Nattokinase Benefits (HouseCall)

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: 

 

Susie: My son is level 1 ASD. He is very high functioning and attends mainstream school. His main issue is his rigid thinking which leads to mis-reading situations and this has a great impact on him socially. He is liked by his peers but is socially excluded and as a 16 year old boy this is tough. We have done years of therapy but are in the same boat regarding this issue…do you have any advice/protocols that may help him if this is a gut/brain issue that effects any potential thoughts or behaviour? He does well academically, is loved and respected by teachers and has recently been elected by his peers and teachers to be a prefect. This situation is very confusing for us as the lack of real friends and social interactions doesn't make sense to us. Please help if you can       Andie: Hi Stephen, I just wanted to thank you for the incredible podcast and everything you continue to share. I've learned so much from you over the years. I'm hoping you might have some insight on a health issue I'm trying to figure out. My hs-CRP recently came back at 46.7 mg/L, after previously being 6.4 mg/L and 0.2 mg/L before that. I follow a very clean, whole-food diet and take your foundational supplements, including Omega-3, DNS, and Vitamin D3 + K2. I've also completed the CBO and Heavy Metals programs. I do have Type 1 diabetes, although my A1C is around 5.1%. Do you have any recommendations for what I should investigate or consider to identify the cause of such a high CRP? Thank you again for all the work you do!       Willow: Hello Dr. Cabral! I just recently discovered your podcast and was listening to an episode where you cover the topic of sea moss. I was inclined to begin taking it before, but after you mentioned there being plenty of other more beneficial products to take, I reconsidered. I'm curious what your top 10 recommended products would be to start taking? I am young teenager and am wanting to prioritize my overall health. Thank you so much for your time and attention!       Missy: What is your take on high oxalate foods? I feel they affect may people and should be avoided however your smoothies and food plans suggest many of those foods Hope you talk about this       Bob: In one of your YouTube videos you stated that Nattokinase doesn't help everyone and you would tell who it doesn't help and why, but I missed what you said about who it doesn't help and why?       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!      - - -

3891: This Is More Dangerous Than Smoking for Your Health & Longevity (TT)

How fit do you really need to be to support a longer, healthier life?     New research is bringing more attention to the connection between physical fitness and longevity, and there's more to this relationship than body weight or how much you can lift.     On today's show, I'm breaking down what the latest research can tell us about fitness, aging, and long-term health.     I'll also share why cardiovascular fitness deserves attention, how everyday movement can play a role, and what you can do to build a stronger foundation for longevity without needing to train like an elite athlete.     So join me on today's Cabral Concept 3891 to find out what your fitness level may reveal about your long-term health and why cardio may deserve a bigger place in your routine.

The number on the scale can change dramatically from one day to the next, but that doesn't always mean your body composition has changed.     There are several everyday factors that can cause temporary changes on the scale, and understanding what's really behind those fluctuations can help you better interpret your progress.     On today's show, I'm breaking down why you can suddenly weigh three to five pounds more in a day and what may actually be happening inside your body.     I'll also share how to identify your personal triggers, why women may notice greater fluctuations at certain points in their cycle, and the best way to track your true baseline when working toward a healthy weight.     So join me on today's Cabral Concept 3890 to find out why the scale can change so quickly and how to stop letting normal weight fluctuations derail your progress.

3889: A New Cure for Baldness (Taiwanese Breakthrough) (TWT)

Hair loss can be frustrating, especially when many of the current approaches focus on managing the problem rather than addressing what may be happening at the follicle level.     New research is exploring some fascinating possibilities for supporting hair regrowth by looking at the biology of the hair follicle in a different way.     On today's show, I'm breaking down a recent study that generated some surprising results and sharing what researchers are discovering about the mechanisms that may influence hair growth.     I'll also explain why the findings are promising but still very early, what needs to happen before these approaches can be tested more extensively, and why I believe we may see significant advances in hair-loss treatments over the coming years.     So join me on today's Cabral Concept 3889 as we take a closer look at some of the most exciting new research into hair loss and the future of hair regrowth.

3887: Taking Celiac Test, Tuna & Mercury, Afternoon Fatigue, Chronic Diarrhea, Scar Tissue & Lymphatic Drainage (HouseCall)

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…

 

Anonymous: I was wondering what the minimum amount of gluten and minimum amount of days is to eat before taking a celiac test. I heard only 2 weeks instead of 6 will work. I get bad brain fog so can't take the test if it's 6 weeks. Thank you!  

 

S: Hi Dr. Cabral. I recently learned about Safe Catch Tuna. I know normally it is important to limit tuna consumption due to mercury accumulating in the fish. I'm just wondering if this brand truly makes it any safer to consume tuna a bit more often? They have different varieties of tuna such as albacore and skipjack if the type of tuna matters (If it does could you clarify why?).  

 

Holly: Hi Dr. C, the past 6 months ive begun struggling with massive fatigue that hits about 3pm. I complete the seasonal detox, ive done CBO and eat well (including rarely any sugar)… ive changed nothing (apart from starting the gym, lifting weights). I'm 42 and have tried tracking my symptoms to my cycle- and I mostly get fatigued in the first week-2 after my period and a day or 2 before. I'm 42, have an autoimmune condition (alopecia areata that I had rebalanced /regrown but developed another patch a few months ago). Is this perimenopause? What can I do to rebalance my hormones naturally? Note I'm not currently in a financial postion to do any functional testing. Thank you 

 

Susan: Hi Dr Cabral, I'm new to the community and appreciate all that you do. I'm a whole food plant-based eater and eat mostly organic food when possible. Recently I experienced bouts of diarrhea for about 2 weeks before showing improvement over the next two weeks. I didn't want to take over the counter medicine, so I let it run its course. I had no other symptoms. What could I have done to treat this? Thanks for your help. 

 

Erin: I have had 2 c-sections and 2 years ago had a hernia repair and abdominal repair at the same time. For about a year now i have had an area below the diaphragm that is so tight and bloats most of the time. I went to a myofascial specialist and she said that area is full of scar tissue from the repair (it was the start of the abdominal repair in that area) and it was holding so much water. She said the way my c-sections were done it blocked my lymphatic drainage. So i will be doing some weekly work with her but what else can I do to breakdown all that tissue. I am so miserable so often from it. Thank you for your help.  

 

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!

3886: Urine Smell During Cycle, Pregnenolone & Joint Pain, Balancing Hormones, Eczema Around Eyes, Immune Support During Immunotherapy (HouseCall)

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: 

 

Dana:  I'm a 42 year old woman in perimenopause. During the middle part of my cycle, around when ovulation should be happening, I notice that my urine has a very strong smell compared to the rest of my cycle. This lasts about a week. I'm not dehydrated and I don't eat anything differently during this time than I do any other time of the month. This has been going on monthly for at least 6 months but probably closer to a year or more. Is there any cause for concern? What could be causing this? Is this something that can be expected with hormone fluctuations, and if so, why would it have started now but not been going on the rest of my life?      Anonymous: I'm in perimenopause and working with a functional medicine doctor who determined that all 3 of my sex hormones were low. She has put me on several supplements including Pregnenolone. After taking the supplements I noticed that I was experiencing joint pain while not having changed anything else diet or exercise wise. After some removing and adding back I determined that it is the pregnenolone that is causing the joint pain, she finds it very odd. What reasons would this be happening? I live in a country where I can't order your supplements, what would be the best things to take to help boost hormones if I can't take pregnenolone?       Anonymous: Hi Dr CaBral! I recently got my IUD out due to constant spotting and some news about family getting cancer from years of hormone replacement. After having one for many years on and off, I thought it best to let my body just get back to it's natural state. I did a 7day detox and started taking progesterone support for a month after. After 3 months my cycles have returned back to normal, but I've started losing my hair, have dry skin and just dragging all the time now. My chiropractor/naturopath muscle tested and ovaries were not optimal at all, thyroid was a 2 out of 10, my system is showing blocked and my body is having a hard time detoxing on it's own. Overall I'm very healthy and was not having issues until now. I don't have the money to test right now. What can I do to get back on track?       Mackenzie: About a year and a half ago, I started getting what seems to be eczema flare ups around my eyes, specifically my eyelids and outer corners of my eyes. When it flares up, my eyelids become red, swollen, itchy and watery. The skin becomes thick and very dry and flakey. Around the time it began, I did move into a new building, and my partner has noticed a spot on his neck similar to what I get around my eyes. It seems to flare up more when I eat too much sugar/gluten, but I also sometimes have flares when I don't eat those things. Recently it has only flared when I have a virus, ie a cold/flu or HSV outbreak. I'm an IHP1, and recently completed the Vita-Min Tox test and the only thing noted was slightly high aluminum levels which I am working on. What do you rec. I focus on next? Thank you!!       Anonymous: Hello Dr.Cabral, hope you are well. Regular viewer of your weekly ask cabral content. Not asking for medical advice but wanting to support my immune system during immunotherapy for my liver. They mention potential autoimmune side effects, I know your releasing a new resource or course regarding cancer. Hoping you touch on Immunotherapy on it. I read your research page. It was very extensive and helpful.       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!    - - -

3883: Does Cutting Carbs Make You Tired & Weak? (WW)

Could the timing of your carbohydrates be just as important as how many you eat?     If you're eating a lower-carb diet, you may be paying close attention to the amount of carbohydrates you consume while overlooking another important factor: when you're eating them.     On today's show, I'm breaking down some interesting research on carbohydrates and exercise, along with why the timing of your nutrition may be worth a closer look.     We'll take a look at why the hours following a workout may be an especially important time to consider carbohydrates, how your body replenishes its energy stores after exercise, and why avoiding carbohydrates altogether may not produce the results you're looking for.     So join me on today's Cabral Concept 3883 where I uncover if cutting carbs is making you tired and weak and share why carbohydrate timing may be an important piece of the nutrition puzzle.

3880: Thinning Hair, CBO Protocol & Sensitivity, Peripheral Artery Disease, High Cholesterol & Statins, Electric Toothbrushes & EMFs (HouseCall)

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…

 

John: Hey doc ! Huge fan I'm 50 year old male and have thinning hair I've been taking your hair support for a few years what other products do you recommend I don't see any on your resource page . Thanks      H: Hi Dr. Cabral! I have been a client and a huge fan since 2017! No other provider comes close to your common sense appraches. Have bloating for couple years and last few months diarhea in am. I plan to order Candida protocol but a few years ago on month 2 of protocol, experienced gastritis. Have a very sensitive stomach, (citrus/ibuprofen unable to tolerate since childhood). What suggestions do you have to complete Candida protocol successfully. Completed Heavy Metals detox 7-2026, inflammation/food sensitivity tests 8-15-26 My diet is very clean, gluten-free, recently introduced sheep yogurt. Soon will start 7 day detox. My NP referred me to GI for diarhea, labs noted have markers for inflammtory bowel disease. I don't expect much from the GI visit! Thank you for your help!!      Stacey: Hi Dr.Cabral , I've been recently diagnosed diagnosed with possible PAD my Right leg was 0.81 and L 0.78 . I'm only 47 . High cholesterol no matter how clean I eat . It's a genetic disposition. My grandma died at age 49 from stokes & aneurysm. I'm terrified! I do your detoxes , protocols, supplements & enzymes. I follow your teachings . I'm at a loss of what to do . They want to put me on a Statin . Those scare me. What is the best way to treat this and stop it in its tracks . I don't smoke , I work out 5 to 6 days a week, I do have dysautonomia/ POTS but healed myself so much from that condition. Now I'm facing PAD , vein insufficiency & Lipedema . Plus may be having a prophylactic mastectomy to prevent breast cancer that is like wild fire in my family . My DNA sucks ! HELP PLEASE.       Stacey: Hi Dr. Cabral Stacey again concerning PAD . I left out that my LDL is 219 and I do have genetically high cholesterol. I've been trying to treat natural but it's been high for years . They also found small amount of plaque on my left carotid artery . Do you think it's time for a statin ? Do you have other suggestions? I've been on the enzymes for over a year now to treat it . I'm so scared of strokes & heart attacks. I'm only 47 and live a healthy lifestyle. I'm in shock by my results . PAD has not been confirmed yet but the first test is abnormal . I also have vein insufficiency & Lipedema & dysautonomia. I'm falling apart & can't stop crying . I do alllllll the things to fight for my health. Worst habit is an occasional drink       L: Hi, dr. C, hope you're well. I listened to the Friday review on the red light tooth brush & I'm wondering if you've ever heard that electric toothbrushes emit a lot of EMFs & so close to the brain, do you think it's true? I prefer to use an electric toothbrush but I'm wondering if they're actually that dangerous. Secondly, have you seen that now they're making more natural bristles? Most toothbrushes have plastic bristles which we grind against our teeth, so probably they're also a source of microplastics in our bodies. I've heard of castor oil bristles but it makes me wonder how much chemicals do they have to use in the process of making castor oil into bristles? Would love your take on it & maybe if there's some research available on it already? Thank you so much for all you do!

3879: Marathon Running, Food Sensitivity Ranges, Skin & Gut Health, Organic Chickpeas, Immune Support in Hospital (HouseCall)

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: 

 

Liam: I am planning to train for a marathon here in a few months. What insight do you have as far as balancing mTOR and AMPK during training? Obviously, mTOR is crucial for building strong muscles and tendons and preventing injury, but AMPK also stimulates mitochondrial biogenesis. Because I love morning workouts, my overall thought process was to workout fasted on lower intensity days, where my body can meet energy demand relying on predominately fat oxidation. I'd get the workout in while still being in a high fasted state. On the higher intensity days, I'd have a snack prior, which may kick me out of a fasting state slightly, but would allow me to perform out the desired intensity to maximize my training adaptations. Thanks for all that you do!       Kim: I watched your food sensitivity podcast. You said anything under 3.5 is optimal and the report had under 4.47 is optimal. I had an Equilife food sensitivity test and each food had its own sensitivity range. Most of the vegetables I eat were under 3.5 but were in moderate to high reactivity, such as, lettuce was 1.62, spinach was 1 and celery was 1.47. These were moderate reactivity. Cauliflower was 3.18 and bell pepper was 2.62 and under high reactivity. Also, most fish/seafood, meat/fowl, soybean, tofu, gliadin were zero. Why are foods now considered reactive that are under 3.5? What is causing high protein foods have zero reactivity?     Sarah: Hello! I'm an esthetician and have dealt with acne for 10 years (I'm now 30). I've done extensive internal work over the years, including lots of testing and different protocols, but I've never been able to get 100% clear, especially around my neck/jawline. Over the past few months I started using tazarotene, and my skin has responded incredibly well. My questions are: if a topical like taz can clear my skin so effectively, does that suggest my acne may be more of a follicular/skin level dysfunction rather than an internal root cause? Is topical treatment a "band aid," or are there cases where acne genuinely isn't driven by an internal imbalance? How can we determine whether acne is actually being driven internally?       Lara: Hi, dr. C! Hope you & your family are well! I was just listening to the episode 3824 where someone was asking about chickpeas, whether to get them in a glass jar or a can etc. You answered that you get them organic in a can & that they have been pressure cooked BEFORE they were put in a can, but I've been researching this & apparently they actually put them in the cans raw & pressure cook them IN the can - which is awful, considering the cans are coated with plastic coating & sometimes other chemicals.. did you find a company that doesn't do that because my understanding is that they all do it this way? Thank you, lots of love & healing to everyone.      Berry: Hi Doc, I am so thankful that you give us a chance to ask you questions. My father is 82 and goes to the hospital for various issues related to having one kidney. However, he frequently ends up picking up different diseases when he's there (last time it was pneumonia). Is there anything to do to help clean the hospital environment? For example, would spraying ozone in the room, taking large quantities of vitamin C or putting silver infused sheets on his bed help? Is there anything to do to lessen the risk of hospital related illnesses? Thank you so much for your thought     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!    - - -
