There is no one size fits all approach…

While some may benefit from a lower-carb diet, others may find that it is detrimental to their health.

What we need to look at is what happens to the body when we go low carb so we can understand if it’s the right choice for us.

So on today’s #CabralConcept 2651 let’s go over if low-carb diets cause energy debt and burnout and how it can impact our health - Enjoy the show and let me know what you thought!

Will your doctor be replaced by a robot?

It may seem like the plot out of a sci-fi movie, but many people are worried about what the future of medicine looks like and how Artificial Intelligence plays a role in it.

I think that AI has the ability to create massive, positive change in the health space, but it has to be approached with an abundance of caution and slowly integrated otherwise mistakes will be made.

So, on today’s show, I want to share with you my perspective on how advancements in Artificial Intelligence can and may already be being used in medicine and what we need to watch out for.

Join me on today’s #CabralConcept 2650 where we go over the pros and cons of AI - Enjoy the show and let me know what you thought!

They say it doesn’t matter how many times you fall; it’s how many times you get back up that matters…

But when we face a setback, that is easier said than done. Negative thoughts can creep in, and things begin to snowball from there…

On today’s show, I want to share with you a concept taught by one of the NFL’s leading gurus on sports performance and psychology.

We will go over how some of the highest-performing athletes use this technique to overcome challenges they face and move forward instead of letting it impact their game.

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…

Lindsey: Hello Dr. Cabral, I would love to pick your brain on a controversial Vitamin D question. I have always followed the integrative/holistic/naturopathic view on Vitamin D and the idea that low levels can be part of the chain reaction of root cause issues for many dis-eases of the body. However, I recently listened to a XXXXX podcast episode with XXXX about Vitamin D levels and supplementation that made a lot of sense even though it contradicts everything every respected Integrative doctor has ever thought about vitamin D. If you are familiar with his explanation, I’d love to hear your thoughts. If not, it’s a suggested conversation topic for a future episode vastly different than the other vit d podcasts in the past.

Lindsey: Hello again Dr. Cabral - one more question to have a conversation about. I am breastfeeding and I wonder about future autoimmune issues for my baby. If I comprehend the autoimmune theory correctly, when the gut is leaky, proteins cross the lining and the body sees them as invaders creating an autoimmune response that expresses in the weak part of your individual body. This is very simplified. Since babies are born with permeable guts, can proteins go through my milk to do this. I am specifically worried because I have MODY or Type 1.5 diabetes. Since dairy in babes can cause type 1 diabetes, if I eat dairy will that do the same through my milk for the baby? What about allergen introduction? They suggest to do the big 9 within the first year. If one is a trigger, will it create AI?

Caitlin: I will try to keep this short: How do I know if I am suffering from candida overgrowth or just have a lot of the common symptoms of it for different reasons? I have severe eczema/dermatitis on my hands. I have suffered from this for years, on and off. I am working in a restaurant again, which has worsened it, but I know that my poor gut health in the past has played a role and steroid withdrawal. have for the last year and a half took major steps to improving my health Basically, I have the skin issues, I have yeast infections sort of often, and now I am experiencing dry scalp. Could this just be a few things happening at once and because it’s winter? (I live in New York). I’m sorry for the lengthy message and understand if you can’t answer on the podcast. Thank you for all you do.

Ales: Hello Dr. Cabral. I am an Integrative Health Practitioner L2, and I have question regarding food sensitivity testing. There seems to be newer version of testing called MRT (Mediator Release Test), which unlike IgG (testing for only type III sensitivity), is testing for type IV sensitivity. They claim that when the T-cells identity a food as harmful, they release mediators such as cytokines, histamines, and prostaglandins, causing inflammatory symptoms. Since MRT apparently measures the release of mediators from WBC and these mediators are proinflammatory chemicals, which leads to chain immune reaction, wouldn't it a much more accurate way to test for food sensitivities? Thank you for your thoughts..

Melissa: Hi Dr. Cabral - I've been working with a local functional medicine doctor and I found out I have 2 MTHFR gene mutations, high estrogen (testosterone and progesterone look good), high cortisol, APOE3/E4, low dopamine, high oxidative stress, AA/EPA is high, low MCHC, a marker for celiac disease, strep in my gut (no parasites) and my IgG and IgM are both very low. My FM dr is telling me to find an immunologist. I'm thankful to have all of this information but I'm feeling overwhelmed. I wanted to reach out for any specific advice you can provide with this info (nutritionally, testing, exercise, etc). Are there certain foods I shouldn't eat with MTHFR gene mutation or high estrogen? Thank you

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 Doc! Asking for a 36 year old male. He ran the big 5 last year. I’m not sure on the particulars of his results, but I know he has done the detox CBO. Chronic back pain, a reverse curve in his neck shown in chiropractic X-rays. Chronic high blood pressure. Healthy weight, exercises diligently, healthy whole food plant based diet, fairly decent sleep, regular corrective chiropractic care. We recently pieced together that he has systematic vein problems. Temporal Arteritis (self diagnosed), Vericose veins, hemorrhoids, and Varicocele of the scrotum. What would cause this and how can we support his venous/circulatory system? He’s been dealing with the varicocele since teen years. Left temple vein pain came a couple of years ago as a result of excessive Wim Hoff breathing. Thanks so much!!

Anonymous: Hi dr cabral, I wanted to ask you about your thoughts on raspberry leaf tea to reduce painful period cramps. I have painful periods and I’ve heard that raspberry leaf tea can help ease the pain. Do you have any studies that you can share regarding this? I’d really like to get your insight on how I can reduce period pain. Thank you.

Cara: Hi Dr. Cabral, I’m an IHP2 and I have a friend who has a daughter who has suffered for over 2 years. I have not worked with them yet. However I think this case needs more expertise. She frequently gets lockjaw and it’s also osteomyelitis of the jaw, jaw infection, scar tissue from two surgeries, jaw bone deterioration. She’s also a bit auto immune. We’ve seen 4 different naturopaths, 15 different doctors, holistic and regular, mental therapists, all kinds of different western and eastern type of doctors. It’s really tough because everyone really doesn’t know. They are doing myofunctional + oral posture work currently. She has gone from being vibrant and happy to hurting and shy.

Ana: Hi Doc! What are your thoughts on onions and garlic? I'm aware that they're not CBO approved but if someone doesn't have any candida or bacterial overgrowth or any other digestive issues, do you think they should be avoided?According to Ayurveda, onion is tamasic (makes people irritable, agitated and aggressive) in nature and garlic to be rajasic (energy-draining, disturbed sleep and drained energy) in nature. As per Ayurveda, both these ingredients produce excessive heat in the body. However, these vegetables are highly recommended in Naturopathy because raw, crushed garlic has potent therapeutic benefits and red onion for example has loads of antioxidants including quercetin. How often do you consume those foods if you don't mind me asking? Once a week or more regularly?

Lindsey: Hello Dr. Cabral, I know you will have an answer to this question. I have asked 3 naturopaths, my midwife and pelvic floor therapist and none have ever done this, but I don't see why it wouldn't work. I had a c-section last October and wanted to use proteolytic enzymes to work on the scar tissue in my body. Any issues you see? Can I do it while breastfeeding? Recommended dose? Also, what would you use to strengthen (or make more elastic) the tissue in my uterus, so that I may have less issues in that area if I want to have another baby via VBAC? Thank you for your insight.

“There is nothing you can do, it’s just genetics…”

How many times have we heard this said?

What is frustrating about this is that it disempowers a person into thinking there is nothing they could have done or nothing that can be done to overcome whatever issue they are facing.

But on today’s show, I want to go over research that details why lifestyle is more important than genetics and how you can incorporate this knowledge into your life.

Join me on today’s #CabralConcept 2643 so I can share with you the “Danish Twin” study shocker and help you understand why genetics do not define your destiny - 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…

Daisy: I’d love to try the detox program but it contains foods I have severe reactions to (not sure if anything is sourced from corn bc that is debilitating for weeks it so), rice causes intense fatigue I can’t even keep my eyes open, pea protein irritates my knees and gut, etc. how can I heal myself when the treatment would hurt intensely?

Luanna: Hello Dr. Cabral! I hope you are doing well, and thank you for all you continue to give to the community you created! I would like to know if you have an opinion on the new Sleep Staging Beta setting on the Oura ring. Do you know what it measures and why it is different than the original settings? My deep deep and REM numbers in Beta are less than they are in the original setting. Do you have new ideal deep sleep and REM numbers for us with the Beta? Thank you Luanne

Audrey: Hi Dr. Cabral, What is the harm that could result in doing a bikini/physique competition? I’ve heard it could destroy your metabolism and cause other issues. Are there any benefits to doing one?

Becky: Hi Dr. Cabral, I wanted your opinion on the teeth whitening system by Primal Life Organics that uses red/blue LED light to whiten teeth. They claim it will not damage the enamel and will strengthen teeth as well as whiten them. They use Hydroxyapatite, PAP, olive oil, bentonite clay and essential oils. Thanks

Mallory: Hi Dr. Cabral! I have been detoxing from mold and fungal overgrowth for that was misdiagnosed as a child and, needless to say, it has been quite the journey. So far my journey has included herx-types reactions with even just the smallest dose of a binder or anti-fungal. Do you have recommendations on how to limit herx reactions? I went to a friend's house the other evening and she made a meal with a good deal of tapioca starch, is it possible that this acted as a binder in my body? I seemed to detox very heavily for three days after. Also wanted to ask if you've heard of DNRS, Annie Hopper's neuroplasticity program? Have you seen chronically ill patients benefit from a program like this? Thank you so much for all you do and for your dedication to helping people get well!

Lidia: Hello, I drink approximately 4-5L of water a day. I enjoy hot water much more than cold and/or room temperature water. Therefore, I tend to boil the majority of my water intake in a stainless steel kettle. Can this much boiled water contribute to the amount of aluminum found in my Hair & Mineral test? Thank you in advance.

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: Dear Dr. Cabral, Thank you! As my interest in holistic health has grown, I have listened to many podcasts and yours has moved into my favorite spot. You give valuable information and I trust your intentions and integrity. Very inspiring! I did your stress and hormones test, and was able to talk to an IHP. One thing that stood out is that my cortisol levels are high and I should likely avoid intermittent fasting as it is a stress on my body. I am almost 54 years old and still in perimenopause. However, there is a lot of family history of cancer and other disease, I don’t want to miss out on the benefits of autophagy. Is it possible to fast and counteract that stress with supplements such as ashwaganda or anything else?

Christine: Dr. Cabral, this is my second question submitted today so I understand if you can’t answer it. I wondered if you’ve ever been able to help people with a phobia to swallowing pills. I am embarrassed to say that I am 54 years old and still need to have food to swallow my vitamins. Imagine my horror when I went to the oral surgeon iand before the procedure could be done, they handed me a huge pill to swallow. They all searched in their lunch.bags for crackers or something, and in the end, I just chewed the pill (yuck) and swallowed it. So many people have tried to help and love to show off when they can swallow a handful of pills at once. I just can’t get over this phobia.

Diane: My husband and I are 47 years old. We workout 7 days a week. Everyday we run 2-4 miles, then do a 15 minute rowing interval workout, then do strength training, and then go in the sauna for 20 minutes. Although at times we feel like this intense exercise may be doing more harm than good, we also don’t want to short change ourselves and not do everything possible to stay fit and in shape. Are we being less effective by doing as much as we are doing?

Simon: Hi Dr Cabral, I heard recently on a bodybuilding podcast that heavy weightlifting sessions can result in systemic inflammation throughout the body and increased intestinal permeability, and therefore anything you ingest at this time might make its way into the bloodstream. The conclusion was that anything you regularly consume during or immediately after a heavy workout might result in the body forming intolerances to that substance. Is there any validity in these claims? I’m conscious that the things I ingest around workouts (glutamine, fruit, WPI) are staple supplements and foods for me, and I don’t want to form intolerance! PS I suffer from intestinal permeability and IBS so this is a particular concern for me. Thanks!

Ryan: First, I would like to thank you for taking the time to provide our community with The Cabral Concept, it's such a wonderful free resource on all things health. Your podcast has helped me in my personal journey as well as helped me learn and be better able to pass on my knowledge to friends and family. My questions have to do with microdosing psilocybin, brain health and neurogenesis. What is your take on it and do you have any strong objections to it, besides the legality? If you were to microdose, would you suggest taking any additional supplements to help, such as the Stamets Stack (psiloybin, lions mane and niacin) or any supplements to support any depleted nutrients? Thanks again!

It’s been about 12 years, but the Harvard Diet is back in the news again…

On today’s show, I want to dig into this a little more and give you my take on the pros and cons, and also shed some light as to what I think can be done to improve it.

Glyphosate has been around for a long time…

And since its introduction into conventional farming in 1974 its use in the environment has grown by over 20X.

The massive use of this has caused profound disruption and damage to our ecosystem and, regardless of numerous studies on the effect it has on our health, continues to be used every day.

It is important that we stay informed and understand how this can impact our lives and our health and what we can do to avoid it.

I hope you will join me on today’s #CabralConcept 2636 to find out the important glyphosate facts everyone should know - Enjoy the show and let me know what you thought!

We live in a stressful world…

So, it is important that we take time away from the daily rush to relax and enjoy life.

I recently learned about a Danish concept that I’m excited to share with you today.

It can be hard to describe but I think it is important to understand it and figure out how we can incorporate it into our lives.

So join me on today’s #CabralConcept 2635 where I share with you what this concept is and why everyone needs a little more “hygge” in their life - 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…

Joey: Hi, in your experience when clients have issues due to mold how long does it take once they move out of the moldy environment to start feeling better.

Holly: Hey! I’ve been listening to your podcasts they’re amazing. I listen between clients when I’m walking etc. I’ve been on a mission for so long because my body is inflamed I know I have sibo leaky gut and candida. I have numerous allergies sinus infections etc. in fact I have that much I’m just wondering would you recommend anything in a particular order like detox first ? Just because I think I’d benefit from that all it’s hard to chose.

Erica: What causes reoccurring H Pylori infections? I got rid of mine about 3 years ago following your protocol and I appear to be positive again. Thanks in advance!

Kerri: Hi I love your podcast listen almost everyday. I’m on a strict carnivore diet for psoriasis that I’ve been on for 2 months now. I just quit using betamethasone after using it for many months. I’ve only cheated on my diet one weekend each month with dairy free sugar free ice cream. Why am I not seeing improvement yet? Is it TSW or maybe the little cheats I did are slowing progress? Thank you soo much for all your do.

Kate: Hi Dr. Cabral! I’m 52 years old female, pretty healthy and fit. I eat low carb diet, take nutritional support daily, workout at least 4-5 times a week, do intermittent fasting 16-8. However, this so the second time I get very sharp pain in my chest exactly in the middle of my chest. It lasts for weeks. The first time I had this I got scared that I might have a heart attack. I went to the doctor, did all the tests but they didn’t find anything (fortunately). Seems like I was healthy. Now several years later I have the same thing. I was searching up the internet, and I found the name costochondritis which seems to match all the symptoms I have. Is there anything I can do to prevent this from happening again. I was also wondering if my exercises could’ve caused that.I do Pure Barre mainly

Anonymous: Hello Dr. Cabral. I was so excited to see that Beautycounter was on your website under resources. That made me so happy because I have been using their products for a few years now and my skin has never looked better. Their mission is to formulate the cleanest beauty products for us all. Everything for makeup, personal care, products,, skin, care, deodorant, etc. I love that they work with legislation trying to get laws passed and changed so that they can get the cleanest products into the hands of all of us. I love that their products are EWG verified and non hormone disrupting. Thank you for being a Beautycounter advocate!

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: Hello I’m sure you’ve had clients before who have not got the results from the detox and CBO they expected. I just finished with CBO and have been taking the CBO finisher for 10 days now.. but I got a yeast infection in the vaginal area (I think I’ve had it for a looong time now) and in the last month of the CBO it just got a lot worse. The smell is very pungent and overwhelming and there’s a lot of itching in the area. On some days it gets worse and I get UTI pain. It’s very frustrating because I thought I would be feeling a lot better but overall it’s all still the same.. Skin rashes, fibromyalgia symptoms, RA, anxiety, chronic pain, bloating, etc.. What would you recommend? Thank you so much, I trust your advice over anything!

Erica: Hi Dr. Cabral I wanted your advice on an issue I've been having for 5 years now. I have this dizziness that is constantly there (rocking on a boat) and gets worse under stress. I'm seeing a ND currently that tried increasing my potassium, but didn't help. I also checked out my upper cervical spine and that's fine. My ENT suspects it has something to do with my central nervous system based on her tests. Knowing that info, what would you do? I did all the big 5 labs, and I have SIBO, h pylori, 2 high 2 low minerals, high cortisol, DHEA, testosterone, estrogen dominance, high mold, viral issues. Also had chronic lyme in the past. I feel like I keep cycling with doing this functional medicine work to no avail. I've improved a lot but the dizziness hasn't gotten better. Would love your thoughts

Kim: Is there a podcast that discusses EOE (Eosinophilic esophagitis)? Is there a podcast that discusses the difference between green tea and green tea extract? Green tea extract and possible liver damage?

Lara: Hi, dr. Cabral.. I’ve been noticing either soy or sunflower lecithin in lots of products.. are these to stay away from or are they ok? And is the sunflower lecithin better than soy for someone with imbalanced hormones and doesn’t consume soy otherwise for that reason?

Heather: Hi Dr. Cabral! Thank you, as always, for taking the time to answer our questions :). I did the CBO Protocol, followed by the Finisher and Heavy Metal Detox, and was hoping this would get rid of my blepharitis and tinea versicolor. Although I got many great results, I still have issues with blepharitis and tinea. Do you know why that is/what else can I do to get rid of them both? I've battled with them for a very long time. 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!
