    3845: Hearing Aids & EMFs, Magnesium Supplementation, Low White Blood Cells, Syringomyelia, Baby Health (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…   Bettina: Hi Dr. Cabral, I'm a 46‑year‑old woman in perimenopause. Two years ago an ENT confirmed slight hearing loss in my left ear. I was asked to return for follow‑up but haven't done so. My grandmother developed early hearing loss and needed a hearing aid around age 40-50. I've never had repeated ear infections, though the ENT noted small spots on my eardrum ( i think it was). I'm self‑conscious about hearing aids at my age, and I'm concerned about EMF exposure from modern hearing aids that connect to apps. I would appreciate your thoughts. Thank you so much for your thoughts.       Ali: Hello Dr.Cabral, is magnesium supplementation always necessary? Based on Cronometer, I get about 600mg of magnesium from food alone (mainly soaked and pressure cooked legumes to minimize phytic acid and from avocados, potatoes and various vegetables). I also get only about 500mg of calcium from food so I supplement daily 350mg of calcium from marine algae calcium. Whenever I tried to supplement magnesium on top of my dietary intake, I get restless legs at night despite the supplemental calcium I get. I tried all quality forms of magnesium and the only one that doesn't cause is about 50mg of L-threonate. So does it mean that my magnesium intake from food is sufficient? My HTMA shows good balance between calcium & magnesium.       Nicci: Dear Dr. Cabral, I am writing you from Europe, Austria. I have always had on the lover level white blood cells (4 or 5). Now They are as low as 2.2, This is the first time they are so low. I will now have to go to the hospital and they will check it. But I just want to know your opinion from your experience with other patients. I have had a few virus infections in the last three months, including sinusitis. And I am also very stressed. What do you see in other patients with 2.2. white blood cells? Neutrophile are 1000/m3. Hemoglobin is 12 but I started taking Iron 10 days before blood test because I felt cold all the time, Iron is now 70, ferritin 41. Trans ferritin 12,9%. B6, B12, zink and copper are ok. Gamma GT is a little to high 55! I don´t drink alcohol. Thank You       Anonymous: Hi Dr. Cabral! I love your podcast and have learned so much from listening during my work commute. I was wondering if you could give some insight on syringomyelia. I was diagnosed with a syrinx a few years ago after experiencing some tingling/numbness in my toes which eventually turned into pain throughout my legs and feet. I'm on the lowest dose of pregabalin which helps enough to get me through the day. I would love to stop taking it though and heal my body naturally as the chronic pain has become exhausting. Do you have any suggestions or advise?       Riela: Hello! I listened to your podcast on A-Z guide to Children's Health (#858). Does this one apply to babies younger than 1 year old? I do not intend to get a medical shot for me or my baby, and I intend to breastfeed. I was wondering what I could stock up on that would work for babies of that age, to prevent/help treat any viruses/infections that he might get, since he will be born in November.     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! - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/3845 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?

    3844: Help For Hypopigmentation, Changing PMS Symptoms, Estrogen Dominance, Increase Alkalinity of Water, Bump on Liver (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:    Katie: Hi! Love listening to the podcast and grateful you give a chance to submit questions! I had an allergic reaction on my face and neck a few months ago. Derm called it atopic dermatitis. This came on after a micro needling treatment. First and last unfortunately. That has all resolved now, but I'm left with this hypopigmentation around my mouth and neck (neck has the worst inflammation) where spots are white now, especially if I tan. Any suggestions on how to resolve this loss of pigment? Thanks!!       Anonymous: Hi! I am 34 years old. I have always thought I have PMDD, after ovulation I feel more sad/depressed/anxious amongst other things. I also have very painful heavy periods for context if it's helpful. I noticed the last 3-4 months the symptoms I have leading up to my period have been changing. I have started sweating more, which also smells more which has never been an issue for me. I also feel a little nauseous for a few days before my period amongst other things that aren't coming to mind right now. I'm wondering if something could have shifted in me to cause this? Do you have any insight, if I could afford to test I would, but I was hoping you'd have some insight for me. Thank you so much.       Trish: Hi Dr Cabral - I wrote in a few weeks ago asking the difference between Estrogen support and balance. The reason I'm not sure which one to use is I took your individual labs you offer for Estrogen and Progesterone. Results on both were in the yellow low range tip of red range. The email recommended I take progesterone support and Estrogen support but I was told I was estrogen dominant which I thought would mean I take Estrogen balance. This is why I'm confused as to which estrogen to take. I take all the other products the email protocol is recommending. Thanks for your advice. You are so appreciated for the work you do.       Mohamed: Hey Dr.Cabral, hope all is well. My question is regarding Reverse Osmosis water and lower pH versus alkalinity (CaCo3). These two are different from my understanding, the alkalinity is the water's ability to buffer acid/resist changes in pH. If Aquatru RO water filters everything, the alkalinity would in theory be very minimal. In comparison, Gerolsteiner or other high Bicarb mineral water have higher buffering capability. I'm asking regarding my research into urine pH and tumor (microenvironment). I want to increase urine pH along with other strategies. Since tumor Microenvironemt (extracellular) is typically acidic. Want to try increasing alkalinity and observe via urine pH to enhance effect of other strategies such as diet etc. How can I increase alkalinity of water? and best foods?        Paige: Hey Dr Cabral! I found I have some sort of bump over my liver April of 2024 seemingly superficial and I notice no symptoms or pain or discomfort with it is just annoying when I do yoga as it stays local but I can feel it move slightly in the local area. I just did a 21 day detox and felt like it may have gone down a little. I am going to be doing the big 5 test to determine any other underlined concerns that may help but just curious what you would do in my circumstance if anything. Thank you I greatly appreciate your time and knowledge Sir. Have a great day!       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!      - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/3844 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?

    3841: Does a High Fat Keto Diet Double Blood Sugar? (WW)

    There's been a lot of discussion recently about whether a high-fat ketogenic diet can actually cause blood sugar levels to double and lead to insulin resistance.     While the headlines may make it sound simple, the reality is much more nuanced. The way your body responds to a ketogenic diet can depend on how long you follow it, the types of fats you consume, your overall calorie intake, and your current metabolic health.     On today's show, I break down the latest research behind the claims surrounding keto and blood sugar, explain what may actually be happening when blood sugar rises after following a low-carbohydrate diet, and share why the right nutrition plan may look different depending on your individual needs.     So join me on today's Cabral Concept 3841 to discover whether a high-fat ketogenic diet really can double your blood sugar, what the research may be missing, and why taking a personalized approach to nutrition may be more important than following any one diet plan.     Enjoy the show, and let me know your thoughts!   - - - For Everything Mentioned In Today's Show: StephenCabral.com/3841 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?

    3838: Kidney Stones, Sugar vs. Sugar Alcohols, Oak Processionary Caterpillar Exposure, Thyroid Medications & Protocols (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…   Maria: Hi, thank you for all you do. You're just an amazing person. My friend had a painful kidney stone in the Er , doctor said it was so close coming out per the images, gave him some morphine we went home next day no pain so at that point, we thought he passed it. A month later the same thing , after images they saw that it got stuck in a comfortable place, so they had to do a procedure to get it out. Meanwhile, he was having stomach issues, diarrhea, couldn't eat, and stomach hurt. Then his mind started racing then he had anxiety. They are giving them pills to take for the pain and then now they're giving him anxiety pills. He's never had stomach problems since the kidney stone happen. What can we do next? Thank you!!!      Bryan: Hi Dr. Cabral. I'm assuming this is a question you've been asked before or least know the answer to but I wanted to ask you something on sugar. If you had to choose between added sugar or sugar alcohols (Erythritol etc) being the worse of two evils which one would you pick? I thought the answer would definitely be added sugar but I've heard a number of health "experts" in this field talk negatively about sugar alcohols. Just curious to get your take and clear up the issue once and for all.       Bettina: Hi Dr. Cabral,I'd like your recommendation on what to do if someone is exposed to the hairs from the oak processionary caterpillar (Thaumetopoea processionea). This species has unfortunately spread to Denmark, where it normally doesn't exist.Contact can cause: Skin: Caterpillar dermatitis with intense itching, redness, and blisters. Eyes: Painful conjunctivitis. Respiratory system: Coughing, throat irritation, and in rare cases asthma‑like breathing issues.What would you suggest supporting or doing after exposure? Thank you so much.        Richard: Hello Dr. Cabral, thank you so much for doing your daily podcasts. All the listeners including myself learn so much from them and the information you provide is invaluable for us to help ourselves and our loved ones. Over the years I've incorporated what I've learned from you & I can feel that I'm slowly getting better. I'm pretty sure that soon I will put my autoimmune disease into remission and finally heal for good! I just have a quick question. I will be taking the Vinco thyroid glandular again soon and I was wondering if it can be taken with things like florafilm, proteolytic enzymes & probiotics while maintaining its full effectiveness? I take the latter 2 daily and I would like to continue while adding the glandular. Is there anything that it can't be taken with? Thanks 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!   - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/3838 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?
