The Cabral Concept

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. I appreciate everything that you do for the community! My question is about heart palpitations for someone in perimenopause. I notice them only slightly during the day but it seems they really ramp up in the evening. In addition, my energy plummets and I feel incredibly tired and foggy headed. I've had my hormone levels checked and everything seems fine, so I'm wondering if you have any thoughts on what I should check next. My gut tells me maybe I should look into cortisol, but I also know it could be one or multiple other factors. I appreciate your thoughts.                                      Whitney: Curious about your perspective on various medspa type aesthetic treatments like collagen tightening (usually via radio frequency/ heating deeper layers of tissue), lasers for skin dark spots or resurfacing, PRP micro needling, or at home micro needling? Wondering if these will have other damaging side effects etc? Thanks !!                               Whitney: What are your thoughts on tattoo removal ? I was thinking about getting some tattoos removed but wasn't sure if I could detox my way out of all the harmful side effects since I guess my body would have to do something with that ink that is removed ? Or is it just as harmful as is it now in my skin ? Thanks !         Jodi: Hello, I am scheduled to have an MRI with a gadolinium based contrast this Friday. The reason for it is two-fold. 1) They want to look at my pancreas. My recent blood work shows I have very high Lipase at 232 U/L and High Amylase at 118 U/L. I don't have any symptoms indicating pancreas issues. My Lipase was also high in blood work 6 months previously and has continued to climb. 2) Follow up scan for polycystic liver disease (well over 100 cysts on my liver) as well as a solid lesion on my liver which was believed to be benign when it was discovered about 7 years ago. Now I am beginning to panic as I have read that the metal from the dye cannot fully be detoxed. Is there another option for the dye? have more to say but not enough characters in this email.                                                                                                          Rebecca: Hi Dr Cabral I had an allergic reaction to an antibiotic that caused me to loose consciousness probably at least 30 times or more and in between losing consciousness I would yell in pain because my whole body went into spasms. My brain was starving for oxygen so it started taking the oxygen from the muscles because my body started shutting down. I have had brain fog really bad since it happened 2 months ago. Is there anything I can do about the brain fog?

Most people assume that normal cholesterol means a healthy heart, but that isn't always the case...     On today's show, we dive into why Apolipoprotein B (ApoB) is one of the most important yet overlooked markers for assessing true cardiovascular risk.     You'll learn why ApoB can reveal hidden plaque formation even when LDL appears normal, the ideal range to aim for, and why inflammation and metabolic health often matter more than total cholesterol alone.     We'll also explore the deeper factors that influence heart health, including insulin resistance, thyroid function, gut permeability, hormonal changes, diet, stress, and sleep.      Join me on today's Cabral Concept 3581 to discover what your cholesterol panel may be missing and how to take a more accurate, proactive approach to protecting your heart.     Enjoy the show!   - - - For Everything Mentioned In Today's Show: StephenCabral.com/3581 - - - 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?

Have you ever caught yourself thinking, "I'm always tired… I can't handle this stress… I'll never get ahead…"?     On today's show, we explore why these repeated thoughts can become more than passing ideas and how they begin to rewire your brain.     You'll learn the surprising science behind the ancient idea that "as you think, so you become," and why your mind doesn't distinguish between truth and repetition.     We'll also talk about how these mental pathways form (through neuroplasticity), how they can hold you back, and what you can begin doing to create new patterns that support your goals.     Join me on today's Cabral Concept 3580 to discover how to break limiting thought loops and start rewiring your mind for greater peace, resilience, and success.     Enjoy the show! - - - For Everything Mentioned In Today's Show: StephenCabral.com/3580 - - - 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?

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…   Gaby: Hello Dr. Cabral, Thanks for your work you're doing! And sorry for the long question. I am a 19 year old female, and have been struggling with gut issues since I was a baby. Bloating, constipation, diarrhea, gas, nausea, and so forth. I have had functional medicine and conventional bloodwork done. My progesterone tested low and also my estrogen was low. I have the symptoms of very high androgens/testosterone, despite conventional testing showing normal levels. Been diagnosed with low cortisol/adrenal fatigue. My thyroid panels are good. I have struggled with very low B12 vitamins (maybe from not knowing that I had MTHFR). I've had severe menstrual cramps ever since getting married recently. I can't afford more testing, but am wondering how this all connects?                      Liz: Hi Dr. Cabral, I have a very large fluid-filled, non-malignant cyst on my thyroid. When I swallow it looks like a golf ball is in there. Doctor said it's nothing to worry about. All my thyroid labs, including antibodies, came back normal. Food sensitivity test I had a couple years ago showed dairy and eggs being a problem and they were a big part of my diet for the past couple of years until recently. Am currently in week 1 of your 21 Day Detox. My question is, is there any way to shrink or eliminate the cyst without having a procedure? Thanks!                                                                                               Noah: Hi Dr. Cabral, I'm 24 and recently recovered from mono, but I've been feeling exhausted ever since—almost like my body can't fully bounce back. My doctor says it's just "post-viral fatigue," but I'm wondering if there's more to it, like EBV reactivation or mitochondrial depletion. What would be your next step to rebuild energy naturally?     Eleazar: Hello dr cabral i have a question about my post viral pots i have been dealing with since January of 2024 and how you would try to fix it. my question is if a viral infection which are normal and everyone gets caused this autoimmune reaction what exactly would u target to fix the autoimmunity if the virus is gone and there isnt much to remove unlike other cases of autoimmunity where a gut dysbiosis or heavy metals is causing the disease u know what to remove I hope that makes sense thank you for your time and videos u put they are very informative                                                                           Eleazar: Hello dr Cabral i have another question regarding autoimmune disease i am a 21 year old male and soon i will be fixing all my root causes for my suspected autoimmune pots disease. I have completed the big 5 but my question is will i ever be able to drink alcohol again like beer for example or will it always be a risk for reactivating the autoimmune disease i see many functional medicine doctors say only 1-2 beverages but does it really have to be just that amount or can u drink more also i heard u mentioned binge drinking can cause epigenetic immune shift what exactly is that and can it be fixed and if i do drink will i need to avoid eating fast food at the same time even if its on occasion.thank you for the amazing videos u do   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/3579 - - - 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?

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:   Michelle: Hi Dr. Cabral, I started the para Support protocol this morning. I had 16 ounces of warm, lemon & hydrogen water upon waking and a half hour later took 2 of the Proteolytic enzymes on an empty stomach and about a half hour later I drank a cup of coffee with a teaspoon on ghee (my regular routine water first and coffee 20 min later). Shortly, there after I got extremely nauseous over the next several hours. I'm in overall good health and have taken many supple     Adam: Hey Dr. Cabral, I am 15 years old and weigh 160 pounds. I am 5ft 10 and a half and I have been working out for 3 years and have always tried to have a healthy lifestyle. I have recently been interested in taking supplements to support muscle building and overall health. What supplements, vitamins, and minerals do you recommend for someone of my age? Thank you for all that you do, God Bless.                             Taruna: I have been diagnosed with oral lichen planus for 5 years now. I have been on anti inflammatory diet but keep getting flares. Using hydroxychloroquine now, and steroids on and off for flare. Want to get your opinion                                    Tricia: Hi Dr Cabral, I just listened to your podcast this morning with Dr. Axe and Jordan Rubin. I enjoyed it thoroughly and did purchase the book. The one thing they mentioned that I do wrong is I love shellfish. I live in MD so I do have crabs but not frequently. In general I do eat shrimp once a week and scallops once or twice a week. Can you give me your thoughts on if we need to remove scallops? I read they aren't scavengers. I do your quarterly detox. Would you recommend I do your parasite protocol and how often? Interested in your opinion and advice how to offset the toxins from shellfish. I can't give it up totally. Thank you!                                                                                                                                                          Kai: Hello! Thank you for all you do. I am currently finishing up my IHP Level 2 and I'm excited to help people! Im 3 months postpartum and dealing with Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS). It's a bummer to say the least. I eat organic, lots of veggies, pasture-raised beef etc. I do occasional dairy and sourdough. I also love the Equilife DNS! I'd like to do a detox as soon as I'm done breastfeeding. What test would you reccomend to figure out whats going on with the HS- please note I am a bit on a budget!

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…   Sheena: Hi Dr. C! Hope you and your team are all well. I've been a long time follower and am trying my best to incorporate all the different ways to stay healthy by following the Rain Barrel protocol. When it comes to detoxing, besides exercise and the 7-21 day detox, I dry brush, rebound and now, would like to start invest in a IF sauna. My question is, even though dry brushing and rebounding is only 5-15 mins, do I still need to do it if I get a sauna? I'm trying to save time anywhere I can. Also, regarding IF sauna, which do you prefer? The Thera360? Or Higher Dose IF Sauna Blanket? I've listened to all your podcasts that review them and they both sound great. But is there a "better" one between the two? Thanks in advance for your answer!                                                                                                                                        Kirsty: Hi Stephen, I recently came across some information suggesting that resveratrol might be estrogenic. I was hoping you could clarify whether that's true. I've been taking it alongside NMN, but now I'm a bit concerned it might not be as beneficial as I initially thought. Thanks so much for all you do, I love and trust your information. Kirsty             Tricia: Good morning Dr Cabral - I have a problem that I just can't see to conquer and I know if I don't I will never reach my health goals. Every night at 8pm like clockwork I want to eat. It doesn't matter what time I have dinner or what I eat for dinner. I believe it might be a habit but I can't seem to break it. I will use strong willpower for a few months start to lose weight and feel great and then my willpower gives in and I'm back to a snack at 8pm then my health start to spiral. It makes me sad that I can't win this battle. I listen to you everyday and you have helped me SO much. I just can't seem to break this vicious cycle. Do you have any advice? I go to bed early because I get up at 4:00am so I try to eat dinner at 4:30pm. Thank you!                                                                                                                                                              Tricia: Hi it is me again. I also do well with routine and I remember on one of your podcast you mentioned you tend to eat the same foods during the week to keep it simple. Do you mind sharing your meal plan for during the week. I need simple and routine. Also, on Monday do you still do a reset day most weeks? Thank you for taking the time to record these podcasts.                                                                                        Amy: I'm interested in getting the food sensitivity test for my 6 year old daughter. Is it something I can use for her (is there an age restriction)? Is it an at home urine test?

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:    Whitney: Hello! Wondering if you still think the best water set up would be the kangen k8 attached to the aquatru under the sink filter? I'm reading that the kangen relies on minerals in the water which the aquatru filters out (I know their newest filter adds some back in but not sure how much). I have the kangen k8 and both the aquatru countertop that I use now and the under the sink aquatru unopened that came free with kangen years ago. Can I install the kangen to the countertop aquatru? I rent and don't want to overcomplicate the installation if I don't have to. But I'm confused about how to start. Are there instructions to attach kangen to an aquatru of any kind? I don't want to lose the minerals that makes the kangen more effective but obvi would like to avoid the nasties in the tap water.                                  Kellie: Hi Dr. Cabral! My husband is 42 and has really cleaned up his act over the past 5+ years. No tobacco use, exercise bike 30 mins daily, 10k steps, and clean eating. 1.5 yrs ago he went in to see a doctor with right side pain. Xray showed backed up stool. Since then he has been on stool softeners and had a colonoscopy. In July he did a 14 day detox and felt sick most of the time. The DNS made him nauseous and he was in pain but was willing to try anything. Today, he is still having right side pain under his right rib, mostly in the front but does spread to the back now. This month he had an ultrasound, endoscopy, and a HIDA scan. Colonoscopy, Ultrasound, and Endoscopy were both completely normal. His HIDA scan showed 71% fraction and minor reflux. All bloodwork shows liver is healthy. Help.          David: Hi Dr.Cabral, Hope you are well! I noticed you recently launched Cell Force, an enhanced creatine product. In 2021, I recall listening to you say that you were not going to be taking creatine since it has been shown to promote hair loss, which convinced to leave it out my personal protocol despite the cognitive/cellular health benefits. I'm curious what has changed in terms of new studies, your perspective on its benefits, and anything else that informed your pivot to not only take it, but create one of your own. I know you had a challenging hair growth journey, so I doubt you would ingest something that would put that at risk without considerable due diligence. Beyond what the studies are saying, I'm interested in what you are seeing in clinical practice and in your own life.                                                                                       Lauren: Hi Dr. Cabral - I completed the CBO protocol last year and felt amazing. The main difference was a sense of hunger control. I no longer overindulged and I consistently woke up the same weight I went to bed. This lasted for months and I felt like I had a new relationship with food. I slipped back to where I had been and gained weight, more hunger & fluctuating bedtime weight. I took the food sensitivity test and I have a pretty long list of mild sensitivities, 3 high (legumes) so my coach suggested I do the limited cbo protocol along with an elimination diet. I'm almost 1 month into the limited CBO and I feel in control again. My question is why does the cbo protocol do this for me? I like to understand the "why" of things so that I can keep the habit. Thanks!                                                                                                                                  Harriet: Hi there Hope you are well - I ordered some tests around July/August and due to a number of reasons I was able to complete the testing (Shipping took longer than expected, vacation, trip to UK for VISA renewal). I believe I have registered both test (hair mineral test and inflammation omega 3/6 test) and would to confirm I am ok to complete these tests before cutting (another!) hair sample. Thank you!

What if improving your energy, reducing inflammation, and balancing your blood sugar had less to do with what you eat, and far more to do with when you eat?     On today's show, I break down research from the TRIM Study that shows that shifting your calories earlier in the day can dramatically improve metabolic health, even when total calories stay exactly the same.     I'll also share with you why consolidating your meals into a 10–12 hour window supports better blood sugar regulation, enhances insulin sensitivity, improves blood pressure, and leads to better morning energy and deeper sleep.      So join me on today's Cabral Concept 3569 to discover why timing your meals matters more then calories.      Enjoy the show! - - - For Everything Mentioned In Today's Show: StephenCabral.com/3569 - - - 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?
