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!
Elizabeth: Hi Dr Cabral, a food product I purchased (Flaxseed, Sunflower, Pumpkin, Sesame Seeds & Goji Berries Mix) was recently recalled in November due to containing hazardous chemicals. Upon a google search, I found flaxseed warnings about cyanide danger. It later emerged, the recall was actually due to FSA warning there was an issue throughout Europe relating to a pesticide called Ethylene oxide being found in batches of organic sesame seeds coming from India. I am surprised about the flaxseed cyanide connection but also surprised about the pesticide use on organic farming. I haven't been using either flaxseed or sesame seed since but I enjoy both and would like to enjoy both again. Are these seeds best to avoid for now, as I'm now confused what can be trusted? Thank you and appreciate all you do
Michael: Hi Dr. Cabral, which probiotic do you recommend for mold toxicity? The mold toxicity has impacted my digestive system. I feel like I’m not breaking down my food properly and I’m more constipated.
Anonymous: Hi Doc! I’m all into your concept of using the kind of medicine that will help your client the most. I’m fascinated of the Osteopathic medicine philosophy. A.T Still was the founder of the Osteopathic Medicine and he was a very interesting man. I think osteopathy has the same philosophy as functional medicine, Ayurveda etc. What do you think about osteopathy and do you think it’s possible to combine it with IHP? I’m reading “toward a psychology of being- maslow” at the moment. When I read about the self-actualization person I always think about you. You have transformed me to a better human being. Thanks for everything.
Anonymous: Hi Dr. Cabral. I have been working on overcoming HPA Axis dysfunction and have been without a cycle post birth control for 2 years. My naturopathic practitioner put me on FEMRebalance by Vitanica and Adrenal Response Non Glandular by Innate. After getting hormone blood-work done and finding out I have very low hormones all together I went to an endocrinologist. They told me to stop taking those supplements and to "avoid ALL adrenal gland extracts - because these contain active hormone that tell your pituitary gland not to make ACTH and leads to atrophy of the adrenal gland cortex. Avoid licorice root because it inhibits an enzyme in the kidney that breaks down cortisol to cortisone." How can this be true and so many natural doctors recommend these things. Where is the disconnect? I am not asking for medical advice but in your experience who is right? Thanks again!
Anonymous: Hi Dr CabralI am 16 and have been dealing with pimples for the last 5 years now. I don’t have severe acne, but i have a few pimples scattered around my entire face (a few on my forehead, cheeks and chin area), it gets worse on some days and sometimes its not that much, but there are always some pimples, and my face is never completely pimple clear. I’ve tried a lot of spot treatments and home remedies, but it doesn’t take all my pimples away completely. What should i do? I know thats its not severe, but i just want a complete clear and smooth skin. I also have blemishes, so even when there are not that much pimples on my face i still have the blemishes that are permanently there, some are even there for years! I don’t follow any specific diet, but I’m trying to restrict sugar, but it doesn’t seem to make any difference to my skin. Please help, i would sincerely appreciate any advice.Thank you.
Ryan: Hello, I'm regularly getting close to 3 hours of deep sleep according to my Oura ring which as you can imagine I'm pretty happy about. However my REM sleep seems to struggle, never really getting close to that 2 hour mark and more often maxing out at 90 mins or so. I know both stages have different restorative functions but can extra deep sleep make up for a lack of REM sleep in your experience or opinion?Also, as is often cited, deep sleep typically occurs from 10pm-2am. My current bed time is around 11:45pm, and yet I'm still crushing it on the deep sleep. Not really a question, just an interesting observation I guess. FYI I take Mg Glycinate, Glycine and fish oil as my evening supplements.
Kristin: Hi Dr. Cabral, Your podcasts have been so informative and I have learned so much about my health. I have been having issues with my sleep the past few months. I had the Thyroid Adrenal Hormone test done a few months ago and my cortisol was high in the morning and at night, and lower during the day. I also had very high estrogen and low progesterone. Working with my IHP I have been taking the Estrogen Balance and Progestomend, as well as Adrenal Soothe, Cal Mag, B-Complex, Zinc and other supplements. The Progestomend seems to bother my stomach so I’ve been taking a bit of a lower dose than recommended. In addition I have been using the Sleep Support. I fall asleep at night very easily with no problem between 10:00pm and 11:00pm, however I always wake up between 3:30 and 4:30 am and cannot go back to sleep unless I take some melatonin, which leaves me feeling groggy the next morning if I take it at that time. Any suggestions? I’m working on completely cutting our caffeine as well, but never have it after about 2:00pm or so anyway. Any advice you can give me will be greatly appreciated. I also have the Oura Ring and never meet my REM goal. Thanks so much for all you do!
Anonymous: Hey Dr. Cabral, thank you for all that you do. You’ve helped me out soo much from an overall health standpoint.Im a 25 year old male.Sleep 8+ hours a day. Eat 50% carbs 25% proteins25% fats. Train 3-5x a week in the gym and track my HRV and do practically everything to optimize my health.I’m Considering starting a career in bodybuilding, but I also want to preserve my health and focus on longevity. My question: How would you optimize building muscle while keeping your health optimal as well aside from what I’m already doing?

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:
Michelle: Dear Dr. Cabral, I would love to ask your help in solving my mystery. This summer I completed the CBO protocol with citricidal and then 3 months of the finisher. I ended in July and was feeling amazing, with very healthy stool every day. Then in August I went on a camping trip and on the last night I had significant diarrhea that lasted almost 3 days. I could not trace back to what could have caused it, except we did eat a batch of raw oysters the day before. Ever since those 3 days, my stool has been hard and pebbled and constipated for the last couple months (sorry for the TMI - I miss my healthy stools!). I don't have any other symptoms, but after all the hard work of the CBO, I'm wondering if maybe I got parasites or bacteria from the oysters. I cannot afford a stool test right now, but would you suggest I do the parasite protocol, and if so, should I take citricidal with it just in case? And is there any harm in doing this after all the gut healing work from the CBO/finisher? Thank you SO much. You have been my life and health saver and I'm so grateful for you! -Michelle
Nicole: Please do another podcast on mold! There is so much to know. I have listened to all your previous podcast. How does our body rid itself of mold, whats the process going on, She is waiting to do the mold protocol because she is currently on the CBO. I think we found and removed the source but her symptoms are getting worse now that we are home and inside all the time with the pandemic. Will she show these symptoms until the mold protocol is completed because her body can't rid of it? She had high levels of aspergillus and aspergilus. Does the mold just continue to add up in her system? Shouldn't we see improvement if we removed the source?I truly appreciate your genius knowledge insight and all you do for others!
Mike: Hi Dr Cabral, can mold toxicity or heavy metal toxicity cause a deficiency in B vitamins? I took a organic acids test and I was low on pretty much all my B vitamins. I had no overgrowth of candida or SIBO. I took a mold toxicity test and Chaetoglobosin A was at 107 so I’m currently on the mold toxicity protocol. Do you believe by doing the mold toxicity protocol I should be able to introduce the vitamins again? When I try to take the b vitamins I get anxiety and shortness of breath.
Jessica: Hi, Dr. Cabral. Years back you inspired me to truly heal and set on the journey of assisting others to heal as well. I was full of passion and had a dream that I was working towards everyday- to become a health practitioner that has a thriving business helping others. Since the virus hit, I can’t help but to struggle with navigating where I should go from here... where WE should go from here. I feel rather apathetic and often wonder what’s the point of moving forward with my dreams at all when nothing makes sense anymore. I know none of us have the answer, but what advice do you have to move forward in this world that has completely shifted from what it once was? Thank you and blessings, Jess
Anonymous: Hi Dr. Cabral, I want to know are the symptoms from mold toxicity or heavy metals toxicity permanent? Or can they disappear by taking care of the root cause?

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?

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.

I think too many of us make the goal-setting part of our journey more time-consuming than it deserves…
The truth is that if you really listen, you already know what it is that you truly want…
So once you’ve set your plans what you really want to focus on then is the achievement of those goals…
And the best way to do that is with specific goal tracking measurements…
That’s why on today’s #CabralConcept 1802 I’d like to present to you my 5 favorite ways to measure your progress to make success inevitable - 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…
Let’s get started!
James: Hey Doc. Hope all is wellI was wondering how to ask a question for the podcast?I really would like to know the realistic aftermath of Covid-19 — I keep reading and researching post Covid syndrome and I can’t shake a lot of the crazy things I am seeing and hearing — my 6 year hold had Covid as we speak — he is generally healthy with no conditions and is asymptomatic — however he is on a highly inflammable diet and I’m not sure he get gets any real vitamins or minerals on a consistent basisThis is very concerning for me and should be for a lot of people.The question is, is this more fear mongering by the media and our govt to ensure our reliance on a vaccine? Or is this really legit research? It’s stating that it can effect even “healthy” individuals who never actually show symptoms of the viru.Doc, your the only one I trust and I’d like your feedback on this!Thanks for all you do.
Bettina: Hi Stephen Cabral. Thank you so much for your work, really appreciate it.I have a friend (38 years old) who suffers from what I believe in English is called "gallbladder acid bile malabsorption or gallbladder malabsorption". The doctors say that there isn't much to do expect some medicine but so far my friend isn't taking anything because she is concerned with sideeffects.What would you recommend that I suggest her to look at in order to hopefully help her. She cannot afford your products unfortunately due to the taxes that DK puts on, but I hope you can suggest something that she can find here in Europe which will help her.Thank you so much for your time and your help.
Shiela: I have a re-occurring knee injury on one side that flares up with physical activity such as jumping, dancing, hiking, and squatting. I've had an MRI and there's nothing structurally wrong with it, just seems to be inflammation causing pain. What do you recommend to treat it naturally? I was thinking of doing high dose Omega3 to see if it helps. What else can I do? I've had this problem for over 3 years now.
Mike: Hi Dr. Cabral, How long should I wait to do the heavy metal protocol after finishing the mold toxicity protocol?
Ryan: If you had a low readiness score on your Oura ring would you recommend skipping the cold shower that day due to potential extra stress on the body? I'm only talking 2-3 mins here, and in the shower, not long cold soak.
Jenny: Hi dr Cabral, I’ve listened to your podcasts on 1148/ 1103 on mold protocol and diet and I didn’t hear anything about potato’s/ sweet potato’s or starchy food (whether to avoid them, limit them or what while on the mold protocol . Can you help with this. I just want to make sure I’m doing this right! Lol. Thank you so much for all you do

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:
Chris: I have candida in the gut, throat and tongue as well as skin breakouts. Currently follow a vegan diet, no grains, just fruits and vegetables. When I go on a juice fast for 3 -4 days, while doing enemas, skin always clears up. When I reintroduce foods, breakouts come back. This leads me to believe that maybe I have low stomach acid, thus the reason I thrive when juicing, I am not able to fully digest the food. I know you've mentioned HCL supplements and Digestive enzymes help. Will the HCL actually increase stomach acid long term, even after I stop taking the supplements or will they only help while taking the supplements? And, will digestive enzymes become a crutch and my body could become dependent on them?
Mo: Hey Dr. Cabral, what are your thoughts on trying to add muscle with a low carb, high protein, semi high fat diet? I have not tried to gain muscle in almost a decade so I'm very novice and Ive been hearing and reading that a high protein, high carb diet is the best for gaining muscle (also easiest). Any tips? I feel like I'm in your shoes when you first started, I'm looking to go from 180lbs, 6'3 to 195 - 200lbs, naturally. I'm not in a rush either. The last time I did this was when I was 19-21 and unfortunately I went the anabolic route and got up to 255lbs but thats not the type of body I want this time. I know it will take a much longer time now. I also know you will say to listen to your TT episodes which I certainly have but I will again, however, any additional off the top of your mind advice would be greatly appreciated!As always, love your work and everything you do for the community.Cheers
Kathryn: I know you recommend Infrared Saunas as a means of detoxification. Are there any concerns with EMF?
Imogen: If one is avoiding fermented foods while healing the gut (as recommended by my health coach) would this include Tempeh that is COOKED? Or apple cider vinegar that is added to a broth? I might be entirely incorrect but was thinking perhaps the bacteria would have been killed in the heating/cooking process... (or maybe not...) you would be the best person to ask! Thank you for sharing all your knowledge
Berna: Good Afternoon,Our pediatrician, albeit without formal diagnosis, treating our 6 yo son for PANDAS. We are also exploring homeopathic treatment options for our child. Do you work with any PANDAS patients?Thank you,Berna
Samantha: Dear Dr Cabral,Thank you not only for your willingness to share your knowledge but also for your genuine passion to want to help people. You're a rare example to our youth that it's possible to attain success by working hard, following your passion, and conducting business the right way as opposed to one driven by greed.I took your advice and ran the big 5. I discovered things within these labs that have been causing my health issues for the past 10 years! I HIGHLY recommend to anyone listening to lose the skepticism or debate and run the labs! It's expensive but will save you so much money in the long run....pay now or pay later for "sick care." It's the best investment you will ever make.Now to my question. My pelvic floor therapist recommended a yoni egg for a tight pelvic floor which could be leading to chronic hip and back pain. She says I hold tension there like some hold tension in their shoulders. I debated a long time before submitting this question but I really wanted to see if you had any insight.Thank you so much in advance!
