    3852: Hydrogen Tablets, Cystic Fibrosis & Newborn, Help For Ulcers, Hemifacial Spasms, PANDAS & OCD (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…   Ericka: Hi Dr. Cabral! I was wondering if the hydrogen tablets are just as good as the machine you use? I want to save for it, but until then, are the tablets just as good?      Michelle:  My son and daughter-in-law are 20 weeks pregnant with their first child and just found out their unborn baby has Cystic Fibrosis. They are extremely health conscious individuals with food, exercise, sauna, yoga and meditation and are curious how to begin navigating this new diagnosis from a functional medicine perspective once the baby is born while also working with their CF medical team. You've answered one question about CF several years ago stating to be cautious with mucus causing foods and be careful with food combining. Do you any other thoughts you feel would be helpful?      Maria: You're an amazing person. Keep sharing your knowledge.I couldn't find anything on ulcers. Do you have any treatment for them? Thanks again for all you do..       Donelle: Hi Dr. Cabral - I'm currently finishing up IHP Level 1 and loving it so far! I have a specific question regarding a condition my husband has developed over the last year+. He has hemifacial spasms on one side of his face. It started with an eye twitch but spread down his cheek and toward his mouth over time. He had a head/neck MRI done. No issues noted. Currently, he is receiving botox injections in the area every 3-4 months as needed. He takes good supplements (fish oil, magnesium, DNS, berberine, etc.) but nothing helps to resolve this. Any advice you can share would be most appeciated! Thank you, Donelle       Denice: My son has been suffering with Pandas. Main symptom is OCD. Where do we begin?    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/3852 - - - 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?

    3851: Elevated CRP, Turmeric & Black Pepper, Lipedema Help, Laser Therapy & Brain Health, Chronic Hepatitis B (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:    Anonymous: Good day Dr.Cabral, your doing great work! Can't imagine how proud your family and team are to have you. My question is regarding elevated CRP (didn't do HS-CRP) just did bloodwork for CRP. Which was 13. Also Lip (a) is 180.. which is high due to genetics. In combination.. A1C is creeping up at 6.1.. I know your not giving health advice however, what foods, products help? Berberine? Omega 3s? Thanks!       Matthew: Hi Dr Cabral-thanks for everything you do. My question is on turmeric. I have seen posts that turmeric supplements, especially those that also contain black pepper, are harmful to the liver. Do you agree? If so, what about turmeric that do not include the black pepper? If turmeric supplement's harm to the liver is higher than the benefit, do you have suggestions on a replacement? Thank you     Jasmine: I think my daughter has Lipedema, I've watched a few of your videos and have researched this topic but have never had this topic addressed: she drinks about a liter and a half of water a day, but doesn't urinate that much, never gets up at night, can go the whole day without. Is this affecting her Lipedema and any info you can share, your ideas/opinions would be appreciated. We do things holistically, no drugs unless absolutely necessary (emergency situations), and I don't think diuretics are the way to go. Thanks for any info, Jasmine       Andrea: Hi Dr. Cabral, What is your opinion of the laser therapy for the brain for improved cognition, lymphatic flow? I was made aware of PBM would love to know your opinion. Thanks for everything, grateful for you!       Anonymous: Good morning Dr.Cabral, How would you go about supporting the body naturally dealing with Hepatitis B (chronic).. This has unfortunately been undetected for years due to being born in East Africa. In turn, this long-term Hep B has lead to Hepatocellular caricoma.. However, after a lot of research, the root cause was the Chronic Hep B.. want to deal with this then support the body to shrink the liver mass. Thoughts? Not asking for medical advice. did the HTMA (was unremarkable) but noticing a bit of itching and upper abdominal pain.         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/3851 - - - 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?

    3848: Low Fat vs. Low Carb for Weight Loss (Research Winner) (WW)

    Faster weight loss on the scale doesn't always mean greater fat loss, but could the type of diet you choose influence how much body fat you lose, how satisfied you feel, and how much you naturally eat?     On today's show, I explore the research comparing ketogenic, low-carb, and whole-food plant-based diets and what these approaches can teach us about sustainable weight loss.     I'll break down why rapid weight loss can sometimes be misleading, how food quality and fiber may influence calorie intake and satiety, and why there may not be one "best" diet for everyone.     So join me on today's Cabral Concept 3848 to separate fact from fiction and discover what the research really says about keto, plant-based eating, fat loss, and long-term weight management.     Enjoy the show, and let me know your thoughts!   - - - For Everything Mentioned In Today's Show: StephenCabral.com/3848 - - - 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?

    Willpower is often seen as the key to achieving our health and life goals, but what if your environment has a much greater influence on your success?     On today's show, I explore why relying on willpower alone can make lasting change more difficult and how intentionally designing your environment can make healthy habits easier to maintain.     I'll break down how to reduce friction around the habits you want to build, make unhealthy choices harder, create supportive routines, and surround yourself with people who help keep you aligned with your goals.     So join me on today's Cabral Concept 3846 to discover how changing your environment may be the missing piece to creating lasting change and becoming the person you want to be.     Enjoy the show, and let me know your thoughts!   - - - For Everything Mentioned In Today's Show: StephenCabral.com/3846 - - - 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?

    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?
