The Cabral Concept

Are you setting goals each month but still feeling overwhelmed and stretched too thin?     What if trying to do too much is the very thing slowing down your progress?     On today’s show, I break down why success doesn’t come from endless to-do lists or constant effort, but from simplifying your focus and actions.     We dive into why limiting yourself to just a few meaningful goals creates clarity, how identifying only three non-negotiable actions per day builds momentum, and why writing those priorities down can rewire your brain for consistency and...

He is a 73-year-old male who has been healthy his entire life. No major illnesses. I noticed a few years ago his head would slightly bob along with his hands. So slight that he doesn't notice. I think he could have a vitamin deficiency. Unfortunately, I can't get him to do any of your labs or detox, but I do have him on your DNS,...

The Cabral Concept

Have you seen the newly released 2026 USDA Dietary Guidelines and wondered if this is an improvement over the previous food pyramid?     On today’s episode, I break down what the updated food pyramid gets right, where it falls short, and why even well-intentioned guidelines can still be misleading if taken at face value.     We’ll explore how the new recommendations improve upon past versions by emphasizing whole, minimally processed foods and more realistic protein needs, while also highlighting ongoing issues with confusing visuals, contradictory messaging around...

Have you ever noticed that losing weight feels harder during the winter months?     On today’s episode, I break down the real biological reasons why winter weight loss can be more challenging and why it has nothing to do with willpower.     You’ll learn how shorter daylight hours, seasonal shifts in insulin sensitivity, metabolism, appetite hormones, and circadian rhythm signal the body to store more fat and burn fewer calories.     I also share simple, practical strategies to work with your body’s seasonal biology so you can overcome these challenges....

Millions of people around the world are prescribed statins with the promise of protecting their heart, but what if there’s more to the story than most people are ever told?     On today’s episode, I take an evidence-based look at how statins work in the body and why their effects may extend far beyond simply lowering cholesterol.     We break down eight clinically supported side effects linked to statin use and I also explain why cholesterol alone is not a reliable predictor of heart disease and how excessively low cholesterol levels may pose their own risks.  ...

Are you constantly busy, but still not seeing the progress you want in your health, career, or life?     What if staying “busy” is actually what’s holding you back from real results?     On today’s episode, I break down the true difference between being busy and being effective, and why effort alone doesn’t always lead to success.     We dive into how busyness creates the illusion of productivity, why the 80/20 rule applies to nearly every goal, and how simplifying your plan to just one or two high-impact actions can dramatically accelerate...

It seems overall, you tend to recommend less animal foods in the diet. Not that you have anything against them per se, but its likely based on some of the research I'm sure youve looked at on longetvity as well as environmental and moral reasons. Intsead of consuming a lot of animals, you...

Could the very supplements meant to support your methylation be working against you?

 

On today’s episode, I uncover a major misunderstanding about methylation and why supplements like methyl folate (B9) and B12 don’t always work the way people expect them to.

 

I explain why simply adding more methyl donors isn’t enough, how missing foundational nutrients can create unwanted symptoms, and what most people are overlooking when trying to support their brain, energy, and nervous system.

 

So join me for today’s Cabral Concept 3632 to learn why methylation supplements usually backfire, how to properly support methylation, and how to avoid one of the most common supplement mistakes I see in practice.

 

Enjoy the show, and as always, let me know your thoughts!
