Cabral Concept: Wellness | Weight Loss | Anti Aging I Detox L Functional Medicine

Hello and welcome back to our first #HouseCall of the weekend! We had some great entires over the past week or two from the community and here are today's questions: Gina: Hello. I am vegan and I need to get a B12 supplement. I understand that methylcobalamin is better than cyanocobalamin and oral or sublingual is better than a pill. I found a liquid supplement online from a company called Global Healing that is 80% methyl and 20% adenosylcobalamin. Does this seem good to take or does Dr. Cabral recommend a better brand? Thank you so much.   Patty: Hello Dr Cabral I have been listening to your podcast for about 4 months now and I just love them. Thank you so much for all your helpful information, I really love listening to you and have learned so much. I know that you think it's very important for everyone to get enough vitamin D all year round to prevent serious health issues. And I believe so as well, but I have recently heard that if your are supplementing vitamin D that you must also be taking vitamin K2

Does it really matter if you eat organic or not? Do pesticides really harm the body that much? Is it true that some of the sprays on certain foods lead to cancer and other diseases?  These are just a few off the questions I get everyday in my practice and I wanted to share those answers with you today, as well as provide alternatives if you can’t afford to eat all organic foods...   Plus, on today’s #CabralConcept 349 I’m going to detail a simple inexpensive way to wash your fruits & vegetables with a common household ingredient, as well as issue a “green challenge” that will help all of us… Enjoy the show!    - - -   Show Notes:   http://StephenCabral.com/350   - - -   Get Your Question Answered:   http://StephenCabral.com/askcabral

Just a few years back I was pushing my body hard with working out, but I was missing one crucial component to staying healthy, energetic, and injury free... What I didn't realize is that all of us have an upper limit on how hard we can push our bodies if we're not keeping them balanced through certain forms of "soft" exercise, additional rest, stretching, nutrition, and other balancing protocols...

We seem to live in a world where we must force ourselves to fit into a one size fits all approach preached by the media and "experts..." The problem is that although we are all human and have the same basic physiology, how we respond to nutrition, exercise, stress, and pathogens varies greatly from one individual to another... This makes cook-cutter programs and advice obsolete and frustrating for those following the advice, but not getting the results they deserve...

It's unfortunate, but by the time we typically think about taking care of our brain, it may be too late... This is because hidden damage of brain diseases like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, dementia, and others start decades before the initial symptoms begin to show up... I also want to share with you a new type of blood sugar disorder that you may not have heard of, but it absolutely effects the health of your memory and cognitive skills...

As humans, we have a knack at times for making life more challenging than it really needs to be... Sometimes we are our own worst enemy, which makes acheiving our goals much harder and more cumbersome...

Our 2nd #HouseCall of the weekend is here! And here are today's community questions & answers: Lindsey: Hi Stephen, I have been listening for a while and following on your Instagram page (which I like to recommend to all my followers too) for a while now. I am quite worried about my mum at the moment who was put on methotrexate a few years ago as her psoriasis and arthritis was so bad. (She has had it since being a teenager and is now 64) At the moment she has no immunity, she catches everything; colds, chest infections, sickness bugs etc and I don't think I've seen her well in a while. She is scared to come off this immune suppressor due to the pain/ discomfort that will come back but she currently hasn't go any quality of life anyway? How can you help her all the way from the UK? I've bought and done your detox etc so I'm aware of the products in your store but I'm not sure if you could help her here in the U.K with tests etc as you need blood turnarounds quickly etc. Thanks and keep up the good work Li

The first Cabral #HouseCall of the weekend is here and we have quite a show for today! The questions are amazing, as always, and hopefully I did each one justice... Check out today's community questions: Kate: Hi Dr. Cabral, I have been working with a naturalpath for several years to help restore hormone balance (I'm a 32 yr. old female with severe estrogen dominance symptoms!). We have tried so many different things like, healing adrenals, boosting thyroid, anti-inflammatory plant based diet, etc. But my progesterone is still very low. Do you recommend BHRT? My doc wants to put me on it for a few months on days 11-28 of my cycle and see if she can "jumpstart" production? There is a lot of conflicting info when it comes to BHRT! Thoughts?   Rachna: Good morning I am interested in having the Weight Loss test done however, can you confirm if this test can be done for someone that lives in Canada? Thank you!   Chelsea: I have to have a CT scan, what are some things I can do to help offset the radiation in my sys

If you suffer from poor posture, neck/shoulder/low back pain or just want to get in the best shape of your life, it's important to not neglect your most important muscle groups... Although this may seem obvious most people actually train the muscles that are already the strongest in their body and continue to create greater imbalances and tightness... On today's #CabralConcept 341 I'm going to share with you which muscles groups need to be worked the most to improve your posture, tone your body and boost your metabolism - Enjoy the show! - - - Show Notes: http://StephenCabral.com/341 - - - Get Your Question Answered: http://StephenCabral.com/askcabral    

Once you begin viewing weight loss as more than "calories in vs. calories out" you will be well on your way to finally achieving your goals... In my practice, I do my best to teach people that rebalancing your metabolism, hormones, inflammation, and blood sugar, are far more important to long term-success... However, in the short-term there are a number of ways you can lose the weight stress-free without falling for the top 3 most common reasons people fail at weight loss...

The #1 drug in the world is caffeine. It's consumed by over a billion people and a recent study by New Scientist magazine states that 90% of all US adults use some form of caffeine on a daily basis... Those are some incredible statistics, but is all of this caffeine consumption good for us? Is it possible coffee and other stimulants can shorten lifespan and cause mood and insomnia issues? Are there benefits to consuming caffeine for brain health or diabetes? Tune into today's #CabralConcept 339 for the answer on whether or not caffeine is safe, as well as a useful risks vs. benefits comparison for whom caffeine may help for and whom it may harm - Enjoy the show!  - - - Show Notes: http://StephenCabral.com/339 - - - Get Your Question Answered: http://StephenCabral.com/askcabral

I honestly believe that starting your week off right and setting effect S.M.A.R.T. goals for yourself is the key to moving in the right direction...

We're back with our 2nd HouseCall of the weekend! Here are today's community questions: Jeni: Hi Dr Cabral! I have a question regarding two of my boys. One is sixteen years old, the other is 7. Both suffer from super dry, cracked hands. They play with basketballs and footballs regularly, which seems to make their fingers spit and crack even more. It is extremely painful for them. Is there anything I can try that is natural, or anything I should be looking out for? We have tried them sleeping with cotton gloves with different things on their hands. That doesn't seem to help at all. Their doctors have prescribed steroid cream which I am against, but, again have tried. That didn't even touch the problem so after two weeks we stopped that. Any suggestions would be helpful!   Deb: Over the years I have exercised, danced and ran up and down stairs caring for my family. I have gardened or purchased most of our plant based foods from local farms. But now at age 63, I have experienced trouble with my right knee for ab

After a great start to the year reviewing many of the most popular topics for achieving your health, weight loss, and anti-aging goals, we're now going to answer our first community questions on today's Cabral HouseCall! Let's get started! Matthew: Hello Dr. Cabral I love listening to your podcast. I know that you can tell things about your health by looking at your nails, but what do white marks on my finger nails mean. Ive read it could be an iron deficiency but I wanted to know what you thought. Thanks.   Alexandra: Hi Dr. Cabral! My name is Alexandra. I've asked questions on your podcast in the past, and I keep up with your podcasts and Instagram posts daily. Thank you for putting all of your information out there for people like me! I've learned so much. You're one of the only people I've listened to who has the view on health and wellness as I aspire to have! I recently just graduated and am going back to school to complete a nutrition program, but want to practice holistically and have an integrative a

We're back with the weekly #FridayReview and today I have 4 items I can't wait to share with you! The first one is more of a rant on how there's so much misinformation and blatant manipulation of the truth (even in scientific research studies) that it's causing people to become confused as to where to turn and what to do... Next up, I'm revealing a fun "Sunshine Finder" app, as well as my recommendation when it comes to sinus congestion. Finally, we'll wrap up with the #1 site to look up household products to find out the hidden toxins that may lie in them...

Some people love to workout. Others just do it to keep the weight off and stay healthy. And then there are those that are just waiting for the right time to start... No matter what camp you fall into, it's always a good idea to go into every workout with a plan. This way, you maximize your time and your results... On today's #CabralConcept 334 I'll take you through the scientifically proven process of getting better results so that you can workout smarter (not harder) this year - Enjoy the show! - - - Show Notes: http://StephenCabral.com/334 - - - Get Your Question Answered: http://StephenCabral.com/askcabral  

It's unfortunate that many people are told they are simply eating too many calories or not exercising enough, which is why they can't keep the weight off... That simply couldn't be any further from the truth... Sure, some people do eat too much and need to move more, but for the most part if you're trying to lose weight you've already reduced your calories and started to be more active... The problem is that losing weight and keeping it off forever is a metabolic issue and has far more to do with balancing your hormones than it does with "calories in vs. calories out..." On today's #CabralConcept 333 I'll share the details with you on how you can finally uncover the hidden root causes keeping you from your ideal healthy body - Enjoy the show! - - - Show Notes: http://StephenCabral.com/333 - - - Get Your Question Answered: http://StephenCabral.com/askcabral    

Most people view inflammation as something bad, but I have a much different view of it… The media has made inflammation out to be the bad guy and something that is supposed to be wiped out through pharmaceutical drugs or nutritional supplements… However, what they haven't told you is that inflammation is actually a warning sign of some type of tissue trauma that has happened in the body… This means that if you simply try to mask the symptoms of inflammation you are still not treating the hidden root cause of the true health issue… Tune in to today's CabralConcept 332 to find out how to naturally flush inflammation from your body while healing from the inside out at the same time – Enjoy the show!  - - - Show Notes:  http://StephenCabral.com/332 - - - Get Your Question Answered: http://StephenCabral.com/askcabral  

Why is it that almost everyone sets New Year's goals for them self, but 92% fail when it comes to achieving what they set out to do? (This literally means 9 out of 10 people never reach their goals!) I don't believe it's for lack of wanting to be, do, or get a new result in their life. Instead, I think it's simply that no one has ever taught them how to go about strategically setting their goals to get what they want out of life... On today's #CabralConcept 331, I'm going to share with you the "secret" goal setting success formula I was taught many years ago and now use in my own private practice to help people make goal setting fun and easy to achieve - Enjoy the Show! - - - Show Notes: http://StephenCabral.com/331 - - - Get Your Question Answered: http://StephenCabral.com/askcabral
