3643: Don’t Go to Bed Without Doing This Every Day (MM)

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...

3639: Is the New Food Pyramid Another Scam? (TT)

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...

3638: Why Winter Weight Loss Is Harder (WW)

The Cabral Concept

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....

3637: How Statins Destroy Your Brain and Body (TWT)

The Cabral Concept

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. ...

3636: The Difference Between Being Busy and Being Effective (MM)

The Cabral Concept

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...

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… Spencer: Hello Dr. Cabral, I’ve followed you for some time, and have now read both of your books. 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...

I’m looking forward to sharing with you some of our community’s questions that have come in over the past few weeks…

Tricia: Hi Dr Cabral - I'm writing in for my brother. 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, veggie blend, renewal system, fish oil, eye, magnesium, and Vit d. Do you have any ideas what this might be? If I could get him to test, which test would you recommend? My grandmother did shake

Alicja: Hello Dr.Cabral, I hope you're having a great day. My question is about heart rate. I wear smart ring that detects high heart rate during periods of time when I seat a lot and the only activity would be: getting up occasionally from my desk to walk to kitchen or bathroom. I do 10k steps per day, every day and I exercise every other day for 30-50 min alternating between: hot yoga, pilates, jogging and resistance training. Most of my walking and exercising is done in the first half of the day. During walking or exercising my heart rate is pretty steady, not very high, usually below 120 (except for running) but often the highest heart rate of my day I get in the second half of the day when I don't do any physical activity. It doesn't make sense to me. Why would my heart rate jump to 135 when I don't exercise or do any big activity? I'm 42 and I have low blood pressure. (if that matters)

Tricia: Hi Dr. Cabral - Do you mind telling me if I'm taking all of your supplements below correctly? Honestly, I would love to work with an IHP but affording all the supplements is all I can do right now. I've been doing this since June of 2025. Upon waking - 2 proteolytic enzymes, 30 minutes later 3 of the sinus and immune support (only during cold season) and daily probiotic. Roughly 2 Hours later right before my morning DNS smoothie (am Metavolve, 2 eye vitamins, 2 cell boost, collagen & D3K2 drops in smoothie). With Lunch 2 hair vitamins and 3 inflamma soothe. Dinner (2 pm Metavolve, 2 fish oil) An hour before bed 2 Full Spectrum Magnesium. I started this protocol to help with lowering inflammation, joint stiffness and pain and it has been a game changer. I exercise daily and eat your Med diet recommendation and literally you gave me my life back so I thank you so very much. My health journey is still a work in progress, but I will get there! I just started Metavolve two months ago. I really like it. I haven't been able to give up all my berries and sweet potatoes but I'm going to try again Jan 1! P.S. I love your new book!

Scott: Hello Stephen, happy holidays!! I'm writing in about my mother. She's 69 years old with coronary artery disease. 2 years ago she had 2 separate procedures to remove considerable blockage. Then, this past September, she had it done again. All together 4 stints, 2 in her widow maker. She hasn't drank alcohol in 10 yrs and quit smoking for over 2 years, although her previous lifestyle was lacking in many areas which I'm sure built up to her CAD. There's heart issues within the extended family, but, I know its not just genetics. She has done EXCELLENT zeroing in on her diet after this last round of surgery and she has felt the inflammation in her body pretty much disappear. She still, once in awhile, gets winded, which I can understand her being weary to go too long on the upright bike. She has researched online and food seems really restricted like salt intake, sugar and even really healthy things like Xtra virgin olive oil, which says only 2 tablespoons a day....that seems odd. She's on a certain type blood thinner but her heart doctor gave the okay for omega 3's and was really happy when she read the ingredients on the DNS bottle. I have her on EquiLife supplements since the first surgery; Omega 3's, Vitamin C., Vitamin D3, DNS, B-Complex, Cal-Mag, Balanced Zinc, the new Pea Protein, and collagen from another company (but it's clean) As an IHP level 1 and starting level 2, I'm trying to help her the very best I can. I suggested lime w/ a pinch of sea salt for an electrolyte morning drink but she's too cautious of the salt intake. I'd love for her to try a 21 day detox, she doesn't think she can do all the fasting days except maybe the first 2 days. Even the 14 day detox would be good too, but, would these be too hard on her with her condition, especially when CAD patients are restricted from eating even the healthiest of foods like olive oil? The literature says CAD patients do not have a long time once they have that condition, but, I'm trying to my best to extend her years, she is our family's rock. Thanks for all you do Stephen, you are a mentor sir!!!

Sienna: Hi Dr. Cabral - it would be incredible to hear YOUR WHY behind formulating Daily Nutritional Support and the Dr. Cabral Detox, and how this came about? From listening to your podcasts these are strong foundations behind your brand and recommendations. Also, what would you list as the "12-supplements in one"? Thanks for all you do.
