The Cabral Concept

Is alcohol actually anti-inflammatory, or is that just misleading science?     On today’s show, we dive into one of the most confusing and controversial topics in the health world: alcohol.     You may have heard that certain types of alcohol can lower inflammation markers in the body, but the real story is far more nuanced.     In this episode, we explore what the research truly shows, who may benefit from small amounts of alcohol, and who is more likely to experience increased inflammation, poor detoxification, or negative long-term health effects.  ...

Hope your having a great day. I searched your podcast for something on birth defects, but didn't find a lot. Can you tell me what causes birth defects (besides genetics) and how to prevent them (even with genetics). And if I have MTHFR, should I be concerned about using 1020 mcg of L-5MTHF? I heard that that amount can build up in the body even with this form. I'm using...

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? Thank you
