Your bedroom is where your body and brain spend about 1/3rd of your day resting, repairing, and recovering, but many people may be unaware how much exposure to Wi-Fi and electromagnetic fields (EMFs) can come from the devices surrounding them.     On today’s show, I dive into how to create a more supportive sleep environment by reducing unnecessary EMF exposure and why your bedroom is the most important place to start.     We’ll explore practical strategies for creating a more supportive sleep environment and the everyday habits that may be impacting your nighttime...

My husband is challenged by a "cobalt conundrum". Several years back he was overexposed to wet cement, spending hours mixing it with his hands. (Big mistake) Shortly after he developed a severe body rash along with painful cramps and diarrhea. After many tests, they found an allergy to cobalt via a skin test, and we assume it relates to the cement mixing...

The Cabral Concept

Many people think of fiber as something that simply supports digestion, but emerging research suggests it may play a much bigger role in protecting long-term health.     On today's show, I dive into the science behind dietary fiber and explore how it may help support immune function, reduce inflammation, promote a healthier gut microbiome, and even improve outcomes in certain types of cancer.     You'll learn why higher fiber intake has been associated with better survival outcomes in breast cancer research, how fiber supports a healthier gut environment and immune...

The Cabral Concept

Is the number on your scale telling the whole story?   Many people judge the success of their weight-loss journey by how many pounds they've lost, but the scale can't tell the difference between fat loss and muscle loss.    And that distinction could have a major impact on your metabolism, long-term health, and ability to keep the weight off!   On today's show I want to go over why preserving muscle while losing fat should be the primary goal of any weight-loss program.    I will also discuss how common dieting methods, including overly restrictive diets,...

Many people wonder what they should do before or after receiving a medical shot, but few realize that the same foundational habits that support everyday health can also support a healthy immune response.     While the decision to receive a medical shot is a personal one, there are simple ways to help prepare your body and support a healthy recovery afterward should you decide to get one.     On today's show, I share the simple strategies I would use to help prepare my body before receiving a medical shot and the steps I would take afterward to support a healthy recovery....

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

 

Shannon: I am curious what your take on headaches that stem in your neck and the base of the skull called cervicogenic headaches. What's the root cause of that type of muscle tension headache? I've struggled with them for a couple years now. I'm working with a practitioner and have tested for candida and am on the CBO protocol currently. We're getting ready to test for hormone imbalances next week but I'm fairly sure I have Imbalances. I have heavy cycles and low iron as well with the headaches being mainly the first weekish of the cycle.  
 
 
Jason: Hello Dr. Cabral, I've dealt with tonsil stones and hemmrhoids for quite some time. I know I have sibo, dysbiosis, and some yeast/fungal overgrowth. Working on those as well. Wondering if you can explain why these are happening and what I can do for them apart from the CBO. Thanks! 
 
 
Emily: My MIL has high levels of Lipoprotien(a) 232. Her LDL levels are in a good range. She is currenly taking the statin Crestor which is hydrophilic. The RYR is a more natural form but seems to be a lipophilic statin. Her worry is that lipophilic statins crosses the blood brain barrier. Could you please explain this and if this should be of great concern? Would it be better for someone to take a hydrophilic statin vs RYR?  
 
 
Dana: Asked this on the Facebook page and was advised to ask here. My husband and I are currently doing CBO protocol. Before starting that my husband started getting unusually exhausted after moderate exercise, 50 years old and has always been active, no known health issues. Moderate activity now wipes him out for the rest of the day, this is unusual for him. Recently went to PCP who did blood work and found ALP levels over 450, tested again to rule out lab error and it was about 10 points higher. Has had heart ultrasound and stress test, both normal. Will be getting abdominal ultrasound next week to check liver, etc. If ok, probably bones next. Wondering if CBO protocol dieoff could contribute to high ALP? Live in a country where we can't do mail lab testing. Advice on what else to check for? 
 
 
Brent: Hi Dr. Cabral, I ran labs years ago and was recommended the cbo with C drops and finisher. Labs showed no parasites at that time. During the cbo i started to see some progress in my digestion and other areas but once I started month 3 I started to notice acid reflux symptoms like a swollen throat and shortness of breath that worsened at night. (symptoms I've had for many years that returned). I thought it was because of changes to my gut microbiome and continued on to the cbo finisher and the problems only got worse to the point that I had to stop the protocols. I can only assume that somewhere along the line due to stress or poor food combining or not eating strict enough that I ended up causing sibo while trying to fix it. Can't think of any other reasons for my situation. Plz help ty.
