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!   

Deanna: Hello - thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us all! I always look forward to your daily podcasts. Over the past 6+ months the week prior to my cycle I get flu-like symptoms. My bones ache and I am tired all the time. I'll sometimes even run a low-grade fever. I was tested for COVID several times to rule that out. What else could be causing this? My functional medicine doctor has me running a DUTCH test and also put me on DIM. I'm just curious to get another viewpoint. Thank you again!

Kelly: Good Day Dr. Cabral!!! Hope all is well in your world and sending some Sunshine from down under. :) I recently had a IGg Sensitivity test come back and grapefruit, lemons, limes and most citrus along with many others showed up. With regards to whole food electrolytes, lemons and limes (in water) are out of the equation for now, would you recommend sparkling mineral water (which tends to make me bloat and burp) as an alternative or would you recommend something else. Same with the cirtricidal drops during the CBO protocol, would you leave these out during the protocol or does the benefit outweigh the sensitivity. THANKS A MILLION FOR BEING YOU.. One of a kind and grateful to have a human like you to inspire us .

Kelly: Hello there, Quick moment to stop and say thanks!! ….. Now into my question. I've been working through the process of chronic eczema. bloating and all that jazz. I gone through the CBO Protocol, which saw some success( aside from horrible die off symptoms throughout), however shortly after the Protocol had a server staph infection that persisted for months and went on antibiotics. At present my skin in mostly clear, bloating after ever meal has continued ect. I have one stubborn spot above my upper lip under my nose that doesn't seem to clam down and I was wondering if it could be a sign of something else. Do you give credibility to facial mapping and perhaps is it being a sign of an issue somewhere else in the body, for example the heart/spleen. If so would you recommended diving deeper into healing or testing the function of those organs. Many thanks as always Have a wonderful day ;P I'm trying to complete the OAT test, however logistics, covid and weather have made is hard to get the sample there in time. I will wait for spring and try to send my test again.

Kelly: Hello Dr. Carbal, Hope you a well and happy where you might be at this present moment. My question is about eczema flare up before my period. The week before i begin bleeding my skin tends to worsen, flares up and increased itch. Could it be possible that progesterone levels become to high, causing this flare up and is there a case where female can experience progesterone dominance instead of estragon dominance. Not sure if it works the same way, still learning this in the IHP course. How would one approach high progesterone with regards to lifestyle and supplementation. Of course I do not expect a diagnosis or treatment plan, merely your advice if you were a female in my shoes :P Jokes Have a wonderful Day

Anonymous: Hi Dr Cabral. Thank you for taking these questions, the podcast is super helpful and I really appreciate the work you're doing. I have a growing number of skin tags, moles and seborrheic keratosis. Im 37, female and wondered what is going on with this? Iv seen a dermatologist who assured me there's nothing to worry about but I want to understand what the cause is. Thank you

Valeria: I see you have no podcast on kappa carageenan and agar agar, 2 ingredients highly used in the vegan/vegetarian world that's of growing pace. I ask because both ingredients have conflicting answers within the research world. Is it fine for us to cook and eat with?

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: 

Anonymous: Hi Dr Cabral, thank you for sharing your knowledge and being the light that you are. I have a question about pimples. I often get them on my thighs and very occasionally 1 or 2 on my belly and face. I'm a 40 year old female, vata type, healthy weight, feel well, sleep well. Any thoughts?

Leanne: Hi Dr Cabral, I'm new to the show after a chance finding and now half way through The Rain Barrel Effect, I know it's going to benefit the whole family so thank you for the work that you're doing! I want to ask a question about my 4 year old daughter. Born overdue by emergency c section, she's had a tough time from the start. Took a long long time for her to breastfeed properly, multiple food allergies when weaning, did not sleep well for the 1st 2 years and now has frequent night wakings, she still has like a cradle cap crust on her scalp which I assume is yeast related, her diet is terrible as she has a genuine aversion to try anything that's not beige, its a struggle. We're also waiting to see a geneticist as Ehlers Danlos Syndrome has been mentioned. Can you give any wisdom on any of the above?!

Jeremy: Hi!! I absolutely llhave loved your podcasts! I am worried about my motber and father, both have just turbed 60.. My dad has been eating preservatives and packaged foods for a long time and see.s to think he is unbreakable.. I've finally motivated him and put him on a personal meal plan. He is dominantly Kapha, He is actually taking gym classes now and working out very hard, my question is.. can it be too hard for his heart to handle right now considering he has severe gout and constant inflammation (going down since on the plan) And I want to know what are the best tests to check he is not in danger of a heart attack and also knowing what I can do about it right now. Secondly, my mother. She's always tried to be healthy, she is actually in a state where she struggles to lose weight with any plan I give her as her metabolosm adapted to her extremely restricted and over exercising diet plans She is a person who see's extreme emotion of stress quite often and will not budge with listening on stress management strategies, and with that in mind.. I'm also worried about her heart health.. her memoty in the last 5/10 years has become more and more forgetfu.. I've been begging her to take Omega 3's she also suffers with chronic heart burn..

Meghan: Hey Dr Cabral, I have a tendency for low thyroid and have recently fallen pregnant. I believe I heard it correct that you are not an advocate for people taking thyroid support while pregnant? Would you just encourage thyroid lifestyle improvements like your thyroid smoothie daily and all the things you talk about in the health results accelerator to try and maintain good thyroid health without actually supplementing? Are there risks if I was to supplement with something similar to your daily thyroid support? Thanks for always being an incredible resource and for everything you put out into the world. You are spectacular!

Sacha: Hi there! I love your show and had a question about EMF's. I recently moved to Austin Texas and looking to buy an apt close to an "inactive" power plant. I want to protect myself/family from EMF's and was wondering if there is a specific EMF detector device or services you recommend? as well as any products to use in the home to protect ourselves. I know of the defender shield and to turn off wifi/airplane mode etc but I'm interested in specific home product recommendations. Thank you again for all of your help !!

Jim: Hi Dr. Cabral - I had COVID in November 2020. Now, several months later (starting in Feb 2021), I'm having GI issues. It feels like indigestion and mild stomach pain that comes and goes. My primary doc put me on Pepsid but I want to address the root cause. What could be causing this and how can I heal my gut issues? In terms of diet, I'm on a primarily plant-based diet and have been for nearly a decade. I don't eat meat. I occasionally eat salmon, eggs and dairy (couple times per week). My main protein sources are legumes and soy. I tend to like acidic foods like coffee, citrus and tomato based foods. In fact, coffee seems to trigger this indigestion so I'm down to one cup per day (from two). I've been making a point of trying to eat a salad or smoothie each day and I'm making more of an effort to eat fermented foods. Any advice you can offer would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
