Low-carb diets can be effective for weight loss, but when done incorrectly, they may cause more harm than good…

As we begin a new year, many people are setting weight-loss goals, and I want to help you achieve those goals in a healthy, sustainable way.

The challenge with extreme low-carb diets—focusing solely on high-fat, high-protein, and minimal carbs—is that they can have long-term negative effects on your health.

So join me on today’s Cabral Concept 3267 as I explain why high-fat diets can be harmful when it comes to weight loss and share what you can do instead. Enjoy the show, and I’d love to hear your thoughts!

When it comes to improving our health, most people focus on external factors…

However, one critical aspect that often gets overlooked is stress and its profound impact on the body.

Chronic stress and prolonged “fight or flight” responses can lead to elevated cortisol levels, which over time, may manifest as dis-eases in the body.

So join me on today’s Cabral Concept 3266 as I discuss the top 10 signs you may be experiencing high cortisol and share actionable steps to begin lowering those levels. Enjoy the show, and feel free to share your thoughts!

What’s the most important change you need to make to reach your goals?

Many of us, myself included, often believe that external factors—such as money, career, government, or relationships—must shift for us to reach our full potential.

But the truth is, more often than not, we are the ones holding ourselves back.

To truly accomplish what we set out to do, we must focus on changing our mindset and the way we think and act.

So join me on today’s Cabral Concept 3265 as we explore what you need to let go of this year to make it your best year yet. Enjoy the show, and let me know your thoughts!

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend!

I’m looking forward to sharing with you some of our community’s questions that have come in over the past few weeks…

Jenny: Hi Dr. Cabral, First, thank you to you and your amazing team for selflessly giving of your time and knowledge so we can all learn and grow on our health journeys. We can't really express this enough. I have a question about your Alkalizing Vitamin C product. You've recommended this as something to take in water upon waking, but could it also be effective when I add it to my morning smoothie or is it better to take separately? I don't enjoy the taste on its own, so I'm unlikely to drink it just in water. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Kavita: Hello Dr. Cabral, First, I want to thank you for your amazing work! I listen to your podcast every day, which means I've been consistently listening for the past 3,231 days! :) I have an important question for you. I recently started taking Berberine, but a friend mentioned that it may have adverse reactions. She told me about her neighbor, who had to stop taking it because doctors wouldn't perform surgery on her while she was using Berberine. I’m unsure of the exact details, but it raised some concerns. I started taking Berberine because there's diabetes in my family, and I'm hoping to avoid getting on any medications as I move ahead in life. How do I make sure it is working for me? I hope this gets on your list soon :) Thank you, Kavita ( Pronounced - ka-vee-tha)

Jenni: Hi, I’ve been battling Meibomian Gland Disorder for over a year. The only thing that has provided relief has been taking 50mg daily of doxycycline. I’ve been on this dosage for 10 months. My doctor has tried weaning me off, but the symptoms pop back up after 4-5 days. Nobody seems to understand why this issue arose suddenly, and no one can offer me help outside of antibiotics. Do you have any experience in helping patients with MGD? Could this be due to heavy metals, gut issues, systemic inflammation? I’m desperate for natural relief. Thank you, Jenni

Michael: Hi Dr. Cabral. Thank you for the work you do and especially taking time to answer people's questions. My question is regarding to home oil as the main heating source. What are your thoughts on the cleanest and safest option? We currently have the standard heating oil. There is an option to change the oil to a B50 blend which consists of a 50/50 blend of standard heating oil and biodiesel. This would then convert to a B99 fuel which is 99% biodiesel. Any thoughts on this subject or know of a place I can go to research more? Thank you!

Paedyn: Hi Dr Cabral, but of a hard to question. What are some ways I can naturally treat MALS (median arcuate ligament syndrome). I woke up randomly with stomach pain in my epigastric region one day out of nowhere and Dr’s are saying it’s this and that the only treatment option is very major surgery which only a select handful of surgeons perform this surgery worldwide and a lot of people end up worse off after the surgery. I just want to heal my body naturally. Thank you so much!

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:

Amy: Hi Dr. Cabral. First, thank you for all you do for the health community! You are my most trusted source of information. I'd love to get your thoughts on a red patch under my right eye. I've suffered through it flaring up and going away over half of this year. My dermatologist has tried 2 creams and we recently did a skin allergy test. While this was helpful, nothing has made it actually get better. I have a sneaking suspicion that it is more gut related than contact allergen related. Do you have any thoughts on ways to go about finding this root cause? Thanks!

Melissa: Hi! I just moved out of state and am in my mid 40s with menstrual irregularities. I’m feeling overwhelmed trying to find a new primary care and OBGYN that practices holistically with functional medicine therapies. How does one go about finding one. Or should I opt to doing a hormone therapy specialist?

Anonymous: Hi Dr. C, For several mornings now Ive been having a weird, somewhat sour chemical taste in my mouth. I believe this is due to my chronic constipation as my morning bowel movements are often incomplete, and any subsequent movements I have after my first one will smell more strongly of this sour chemical taste I wake up with in my mouth. My urine will have this smell as well. It does not smell of feces, just sort of chemically. I also have lots of pain in the area right below the sternum and seems to be chronic, and only reduces with the more bowel movements I have. Im already taking many magnesium supplements, motility activators, tudca, and miralax but I still find myself in these situations quite often. My stomach will often make high pitch, squealing sounds as if its straining

Lynne: Hello and thank you so much for all you do for all of us! I'm trying to understand why I tend to get benign growths such as lipomas. I also have a lump on my breast that has been there since I was 20. I am 52 and have gone through menopause and thought it would dissipate after the estrogen level dropped so dramatically. I also had hyperparathyroidism...another growth. Finally, I have a lymph node that feels like a tiny hard nodule on my neck (at the top near the ear). I have been taking proteolytic enzymes, am not overweight, exercise daily and eat a very clean diet. I would greatly appreciate any advice. Thank you! Sorry, I forgot to mention that I listened to previous HouseCalls and have tried all of those things: massage, rebounder, sauna, dry brushing, castor oil, detoxes, etc. I have been doing these for a number of years.

Jill: Thanks for sharing your expertise and experience. I have a history of hyperlipidemia but through diet & lifestyle efforts have kept my cholesterol levels in check. Within the last few years, the levels have begun to climb and some of my inflammatory markers are worrisome. I am 53, post menopausal, and live an active lifestyle. I would like to avoid statins; however, I have been taking Icosapent Ethyl and Ezetimibe for the past 6 months and have seen a lowering of both my triglycerides and cholesterol to normal ranges again. My APOB is 139, LpA is 102 but my CT cardiac score is a zero. Where do I go from here? Is there any other testing I should consider to understand if need to continue on these medications, such as a CT angiogram?

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!

Do these common symptoms sound familiar?

Fatigue and low energy
Hair thinning
Dizziness
Cold hands and feet
Brittle or spoon-shaped nails

Conventional medicine often tests just one factor of iron deficiency, leaving out the full picture of what’s happening in your body.

So on today’s Cabral Concept 3259, I’ll walk you through the exact bloodwork labs you need to assess your iron levels properly so you can address the issue and restore balance to your body. Enjoy the show, and let me know your thoughts!

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend!

I’m looking forward to sharing with you some of our community’s questions that have come in over the past few weeks…

Anonymous: Hi Dr Cabral. I have a question about fat pads. Like sacral fat pads and the “buffalo humps” specifically. I have read that diet and exercise hardly makes a difference for these. And liposuction seems to be the only thing that comes up to get rid of them. I understand we all store fat differently, but I’m curious about these specifically. Do you know if loss of body fat gets rid of these? Mine have gotten worse over a few years, and despite losing some weight ( maybe not enough yet) these areas don’t seem to change. I’m a pretty petite person, but I do have some excess fat I would like to get rid of. This area troubles me and I feel a little hopeless that they don’t change even with weight loss.

Thank you!

Chelsea: Hi Stephen, thank you for all your helpful information and knowledge. I’ve recently developed dry crack skin in between my fingers and a lot of bumps on my upper back and shoulders. I can’t seem to pop the bumps, it’s not like they’re pimples. I thought the cracking in between my fingers was potentially a fungus like athletes foot? But I tried yeast infection cream and it didn’t seem to help. This might be TMI, but I’m also very itchy in my genitals. However, test results came back negative for yeast infection or STDs. This has all started at the same time. Could it be related to my gut? Is this a histamine response? I recently did a gut and sibo test, I get my results on Thursday. I’ve had sibo before but I didn’t have these symptoms. Any advice is appreciated! Thanks!

Kayla: Hi Dr Cabral Thank you for all that you do, your podcasts bring me hope & calmness every time!I am 33 years old, overall good health, hypothyroidism 3.6 TSH, LPa high but all other markers (apo B, triglycerides etc good). I recently got my thermography results “cranial dental/thyroid exam” it shows I still have some inflammation around the sinus, neck, & thyroid resulting in possible nodules, last year I removed 4 cavitations, dead bone (dental surgery) & it seems I may still be infected on my upper left molar, I’m exhausted , I dont think I have the strength for surgery again , every year I do the big 5 labs, and overall my results are always very good since I continually do yearly protocols , I’m not sure what to do anymore, losing hope thyroid, neck inflammation.

Kayla: Hi Dr Cabral, Could you speak more of Lipoprotein A (LPa) blood marker, my LPa is 158 & all my other markers are pretty optimal (ldl, hdl, apo b , triglycerides etc) my question is, what now? How do I live with high LPa if lifestyle “doesn’t change the marker level” .. It feels like this will creep up on me, I take omega daily but theres talk about Niacin flush , I just need you to speak more of this I trust your insight & I want to know how to live worry free.

Kellie: Hi Dr. Cabral! My husband really started focusing on improving his health over the past 5 years - annual physicals, routine dentist, exercise bike 30min/day, nicotine-free, homemade meat & veggie meals, etc. The only Rx the last 5 yrs is for HBP (lisinopril-hctz 20-25). He recently went through a Healthy Heart Screening and found out his Calcium Score is 39. Is that permanent or what can he do to get that back to 0?

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:

Samantha: Hi Doctor Cabral,My 76-year-old father recently underwent a diagnosis of bladder polyps, which will be removed surgically. Fortunately, they appear to be benign. I'm interested in learning about preventive measures to reduce the risk of future occurrences. Thank you for your time and expertise.

Anonymous: Hi Dr C,i have an odd problem that the doctors Ive been seeing havent been to answer yet. Around Sept. 2023, I noticed fast and dramatic changes to what seems like muscle tonality around my brows. My brows now look receded, flat and less prominent. My nose seems a bit more bulbous. I originally thought that my hollowing was due to a unilateral ptosis repair & upper bleph I got in April 2023, but after speaking with many surgeons, this would not be the case as the loss is on both eyes. The only thing I can say is that I started eating meat again in September 2023 after not eating meat for around 3 or 4 years prior. This is the only change I made to my diet. I stopped eating meat for 2.5 weeks and my brow position seems a bit improved, not sure, but it hasnt helped the volume loss. Thx

Lauren: Hi Dr. Cabral! I am signing up to be an IHP & taking your program. I am very excited. But I do have a question for you regarding my own health. I have a heart condition that presents as “SVT”. I have had this since 7th grade and have done every test under the sun but my original cardiologist said he wanted to put me on depression meds. (Lost lots of confidence in doctors bc I am not depressed. This was 8 years ago). Question is: can I heal my heart? I have stopped smoking weed, barely drink caffeine, & eat pretty clean (organic etc). Do you have an advice or have you worked with anyone dealing with this? I am 29. Don’t want any meds, surgery or a pacemaker. I want the natural route. These episodes happen every 1-3 months. A hiccup usually triggers it, bending over or jumping. Thank you!!!

Marlyse:I'm 5 ft 7 in, weigh 124 lb. I was recently diagnosed with a 40 mm ascending aortic aneurysm found through a scan. I exercise regularly, est a mostly clean diet, don't smoke, have low cholesterol and have low blood pressure. I haven't been able to find anything on what I can do to help this besides surgery and I'm wondering if you have any suggestions. Thank you much Dr cabral.

Lindsey: Hi Dr Cabral. Thank you for all you do. My mom has neuropathy in her legs. She is pre diabetic. Any advice on what she should be doing or taking? She also has sleeping issues. Gets about 4 hours a night. I'm sure that doesn't help.

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!

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: Hi Dr C! Listening to you daily and love all you do! Trying to navigate some hormonal and aging changes specifically hair thinning. I've experienced some thinning of the hair over the years but am really seeing it thin out over the past 6 months. I am in my early 50's on your estrogen support as well as taking HRT prescribed by my gynecologist. I have always been fairly healthy through the years: always exercised daily (have brought it down some since I feel like I was too inflamed from cortisol build up). Had gained some weight, followed your program of a 7 day detox for the first time in May and a second time in Sept. Have been taking your Metavolve and I lost the 10 lbs I needed to lose.. I get good sleep, work daily, not really too stressed in life, wanted to get your input

Al: Hello Dr.Cabral. I have lot of trust in your opinion and would like to ask about magnesium l-threonate. I’ve been reading about its benefits regarding cognitive function, Alzheimer’s, as well as improving sleep quality. Is this form of magnesium better for above mentioned? Are you considering creating another product like that? My second question is about acne. My partner has deep acne, not inflamed, just tiny hard bumps on temples and forehead. She had elevated Candida, but no parasites and had gone through CBO, which resolved her gut issues, but didn’t improve acne. She also has endometriosis, which she just started working on. Would you suggest coffee peeling? I’ve red that it works very well. Thank you.

Anonymous: Hello Dr. Cabral! I'm an IHP2. I have a 28 year old, female client with autoimmune issues, on SSRIs, thyroid meds, and zyrtec. She completed a 21 day detox and then moved on to the CBO protocol. When she began the CBO protocol, she got "pruney" fingers. She is now on week 10 and still has the "pruney" fingers. Any idea on what's causing this and how to address it?

Anonymous: Hello Dr. Cabral! I'm an IHP2. I have a 28 year old, female client with autoimmune issues, on SSRIs, thyroid meds, and zyrtec.She just started (at week 10) waking up jittery with a racing heart rate and emotions have been all over the place - feeling irritable and weepy.She has been working very closely with her medical doctor and watching blood work. She recently retested thyroid numbers, but still awaiting results.She has stopped the protocol and supplements (mag, adr soothe, histpro) and slowly restarted - no changes. Any advice on how to help her? Thank you!

Lisa: Hello, We are looking to move to an area where there are a lot of soy and corn farms. Would you be worried about living very close to corn and soy fields? If so, how far would you try to live from the fields? Or what precautions would you take? Thanks!

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: My 59 year old spouse was recently diagnosed with coronary heart disease based on a routine CT scan of the heart and lung. He has no symptoms, does the big 5 labs annually, detoxes 4 times a year, exercises, controls stress and eats a Mediterranean diet with Equilife supplements. His PCP has prescribed statins. He is in the process of ordering the Apo (a), Apo B and calcium tests for comparison. His lipid panels are within the normal ranges. Please provide any insight and considerations regarding his condition as he makes the decisions regarding medication, lifestyle, etc. going forward.

Ann: Hi Dr Cabral- you are truly changing the world- thank you :) What is your opinion on hypnotherapy (using a properly trained, credentialed and licensed clinical hypnotist) to overcome claustrophobia or other anxiety issues? I was wondering if you have any first hand knowledge of this being a viable option for patients. Thank you again :)

Ian: Hi Dr. Cabral, I hope this message finds you well. I am interested to learn about how to prepare my body for a drastically different climate. I’m from Texas and will soon move to the Chicago area during winter. How can I best prepare my body for the colder months ahead? What is recommended to keep my body healthy in the cold? Lastly, what should I do to prepare my body for return visits to warmer climates such as in Texas? Thank you for all that you do.

Cody: Hi Dr Cabral, What are your thoughts on UNDA drops? My naturopath recommended them, but I was curious to know you’re opinion. Thanks for all you do.

Rickardo: Hello from Australia! I live quite a healthy life, however have had high stress for a long time, which was confirmed via testing my cortisol levels. For as long as I can remember, I have had chronic loose stool. However, when I start the 7 day detox, I get well formed stools. This gradually goes back to loose stools after the detox has been completed. Any idea why? I believe my loose stool is related to chronic stress, but why do I get well formed stools during, and for some time after, the detox, but then gradually goes back to loose stool after the detox has been completed. Thank you so much for all you do, the information you provide has been life changing for me.

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!
