3214: Hormone Blood Testing, Safe Cooking Utensils, Numbness, Children’s Probiotics, Joint Inflammation (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: Hello, I’ve tested my hormones but didn’t know it should be done by a saliva test. I’m wondering if I can still make something out of the results of the female hormones I tested in this way? Or are these results completely off? They’ve tested FSH, LH, prolactin, estradiol, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA-S, TSH and cortisol.. I understand it is not the same as with a saliva test, but hopefully it still means something? What should I look into , to understand the levels? I know Equlife offers tests, but you don’t ship here, unfortunately.. Thank you for your help

 

 

Michael: What are your suggestions for kitchen utensils for cooking? Thanks for all you do.

 

 

Adriene: My health has been deteriorating since July when my neurosurgeon for nerve damage in my C5 and C6 along with two fractures in my C2 and C3. I now get fatigue quickly, having seizures due to my blood pressure skyrocket and then I have extreme pain and numbness in my right side. My doctors really want me tested for MS. Can someone have ms without lesions

 

 

Larissa: Hello, Can you recommend a probiotic for my 2.5 yr old son? Due to unfortunate circumstances, he was born via C-section and formula fed. He has little bumps on the back of his arm that I suspect based on my understanding of Chinese skin mapping is due to small intestinal issues. I heard the gut micro biome solidifies after age 3yrs and aside from organic unprocessed foods, want to help give him the best gut micro ions given the circumstances. Thanks in advance and for all that you do for our growing enlightened community!

 

 

Lauren: Hi Dr. Cabral, I had a fall while hiking. Nothing serious, landed on my hands & trauma to my right index finger created noticeable swelling (thought it might be dislocated). Dr. suggested an x-raym which confirmed no dislocation, but "ovoid calcification adjacent to the pip joint suggestive of calcific periarthritis". Generally I follow an anti-inflammatory lifestyle, but noticed prior (from more alcohol or holidays - more flex meals) the same finger has had joint pain/swelling. Far less than the fall, but noticeable. I am concerned it's not getting better & wonder about complications with arthritis moving forward. Would surgery be an option to remove it or what can I do? Pain on touch/bend properly + certain things seem to trigger it. Any specific supplements for calcium resorption help?
