3362: Shrinking Cysts, Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia, Help Absorbing Nutrients, Natural Testosterone Production, Right Side Gut Pain (HouseCall) 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… Carlos: Hello Dr Cabral, You have changed my wife and I's life over the past year! Real quick question, my wife found out she has an 8mm simple cyst located at the pancreatic head. It does not bother my wife and she has zero pain. We are wondering how we could go about getting it removed/shrunken? Would you recommend the 21 day detox or a cleanse of some sort? Thank you for taking the time every week to answer questions. Alberto: I am 71 and was diagnosed with BPH. My PSA is low and testosterone levels are in range for my age. The urologist mention that it's very large and no treatment at this stage except surgery. I was referred to have an MRI. Any natural solution to improve my situation. I am not diabetic, have normal blood pressure and weight. Follow a low carb diet, intermittent fasting 5 days a week and 3 days fast once a month. I am Very confused about the right amount of animal protein intake in this situation? I take supplements regularly. Add red Maca, moringa and turmeric extract, pomegranate to my shake. Any recommendations please. Thanks. Jessica: I no longer have my gallbladder, adenoids, tonsils, or appendix. Three kids later and I am suffering. I am struggling to detox, and absorb my food, or get enough healthy fats and fat soluable vitamins in my diet. I take TUDCA, Bile Salts, digestive enzymes, and binders and do coffee enemas. Do you have any resources for me that could support me, while also following relatively close protocols as your own? Zach: Hello Dr. Cabral, I am a 26 year old male that works out and is quite healthy, Ive been using testosterone, hcg, dhea for my HRT, for the past 2 years and 9 months. My total T before starting treatment was 550 so I was never hypogonadal and I very impulsively hopped on testosterone. I want to quit due to the side effects, hair loss, libido fluctuations, etc, and to see if I can produce my natural high levels again. In your experience what are my odds that my body will be able to recover its natural production and that I can regrow my hair? By the way Ive been working with an ihp for a year now and am much healthier! Thank you sir! Zach Byran: Hi Dr Cabral. I have gut issues and have a rainbow of symptoms. The most debilitating one is gut pain around the mid-lower right side of my large intestine(?). Often, it's at it WORST in the AM and causes me to wake up around 4-5. After being awake for 1.5 hours, I fall back to sleep. Was told its my appendix and almost had it removed in '22-'23. Doctors I've met with recently said if it were my appendix, it would hurt more. Been diagnosed with hiatal hernia, LPR, IBS, slow gut motility, stool burden, diverticulosis etc. To cut a long story short, not looking for a diagnosis, just wondering if you've seen this in your practice. Namely, early morning gut discomfort on the right side (colon?) which often subsides as the morning progresses or is relieved via bowel movements.

3361: High Blood Sugar, Menopause Symptoms, Eye Pain, Abdominal Cramping, Pregnenolone & Balancing Hormones (HouseCall) 04/19/2025

3361: High Blood Sugar, Menopause Symptoms, Eye Pain, Abdominal Cramping, Pregnenolone & Balancing Hormones (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: Melissa: I am 43, 160lbs 5ft. 6 good amount of muscle. I eat completely clean as in grassfed fed, organic turkey, organic chicken occasionally brocolli, cauliflower, carrots, asparagus and arugula, pickles, saurkraut and kimchi and I only drink water. I do eat a good amount of protein 140ish grams a day. I just got bloodworm and my A1C was 5.6. All other markers were great just that one was high for me not dr. ...why when I don't eat sugar of any sorts! Just recently as in last few weeks started introducing some fruit back in such as apples, blueberries and strawberries but still so confused can you explain? Kelly: Hi Dr. Cabral, I just completed a 7 day detox, love it. Today I started the Heavy Metal detox. Really excited about detoxing my body from toxic metals. I have high Aluminum and mercury and mineral ratios are off. Anyway, Thank you for your protocols. I'm in menopause and suffering from a couple of symptoms. No libido, no sleep, irritable, brain fog, dryness, I'm not the person i used to be in terms of happiness. I used to be happy for no reason, but since menopause I changed. I'm 51. Do you offer help for those symptoms? I want to be a lovely wife as i used to be. At this point I'm even considering taking Bio Identical hormones. Thank you in advance. Drew: For almost 2 years I have had a pain behind my right eye. It started as a flare up after cutting grass one day. Most of the pain comes in the morning right before I get out of bed. It is a dull ache and sometimes leaves my eye crusty. I have seen two different eye doctors, my PCP, an ear nose and throat doctor, and a neuro ophthalmologist all of which can find nothing wrong. I have had a CT scan as well as an MRI which revealed nothing. Hoping you could shed some light on next steps that I need to take or where I need to look. Thank you so much for all that you do. AA: Hi Dr. Cabral, I am hoping that you might have some insight. In Oct. I got extremely sick ( maybe covid) with horrible respiratory issues high fever etc. every month since my period has been 3 weeks late and as of one month I cannot eat without pain. The worst symptom is no sleep because of abdominal cramping and severe full body chills ( tingling) the tingling happens all day but is more apparent after ingesting food. I have taken stool tests/blood tests which seemed normal except for low b12 (300/ml) and went for a colonoscopy ( which resulted in the doc. saying I had some inflammation at the bottom end of my colon and it could be ulcerative colitis but didn't say with certainty. ) I am at a loss its been three weeks without caffeine, sugar, wheat, dairy and the symptoms persist. Kay: Hello Dr. Cabral- I really appreciate your very informative podcasts! I am taking pregnenolone capsules at night recommended by my physician to help make some of the hormones that decline with age, and also to enhance cognitive function.. I have 2 questions: 1) Should I discontinue this prior to taking my at-home Equilife Stress, Mood and Metabolism test, and if so, by how many days? 2) Is taking this supplement going to make my body "lazy" and produce less of my natural pregnenolone? I've noticed that this helps me sleep better at night- I take this and a very low dose of naltrexone compounded by a compounding pharmacy. I am hoping that the SM&M test will give me clues to rebalancing my hormones naturally so I do not always need to rely on exogenous (and expensive) compounds. Thx!

3355: Omega-3 & Cod Liver Oil, Throat Spasm, Coffee Peeling, Magnesium Threonate, Methane Testing, TSH & Anxiety, Cysts (HouseCall) 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… Amanda: Hello! I have a 2 part question related to Omega-3 supplementation. 1. Do you see an elevation in LDL with the regular use of Fish Oil? If so, are you concerned about that elevation, or at what degree of elevation do you become concerned? 2. Do you use Cod Liver Oil for the Vit. A and D benefits? Thank you for your insight Mindy: Hi! I was wondering if you know the cause of why someone might get tightness and spasm on the right side of the throat. I've been having it freeze up and causes pain and tightness and I feel like I can't swallow or move. It only lasts for a few seconds and I just have to really think about relaxing everything. Thank you for all you do! You're someone I really respect and know we'll get truthful and non biased answers. Al: Hello Dr.Cabral. I have lot of trust in your opinion and would like to ask about magnesium l-threonate. I’ve been reading about its benefits regarding cognitive function, Alzheimer’s, as well as improving sleep quality. Is this form of magnesium better for above mentioned? Are you considering creating another product like that? My second question is about acne. My partner has deep acne, not inflamed, just tiny hard bumps on temples and forehead. She had elevated Candida, but no parasites and had gone through CBO, which resolved her gut issues, but didn’t improve acne. She also has endometriosis, which she just started working on. Would you suggest coffee peeling? I’ve red that it works very well. Thank you. Gina: Hello I have suffered with gut issues for many many years. I did your cbo protocol and I felt amazing, but I’ve noticed some of my symptoms coming back. I was wondering if you and your team test for methane and hydrogen sibo, if so I was hoping you had a specific protocol to resolve the problem. Thank you for your time Gina Vanessa: Hello Dr. i recently did my hormone test and the tsh was 2.43, but since covid 2021 I had been having anxiety issues it’s better but still I lost weight, and my skin is dry. Any suggestions or how do I get better pls , im 40 year old women John: Hey doc. Would like to know what’s best for cyst on my knuckle and what usually causes it .

3354: HRT, Electronics & REM Sleep, Vitamin D & Menstrual Cycle, Hunger at Night, Combining Protocols (HouseCall) 04/12/2025

3354: HRT, Electronics & REM Sleep, Vitamin D & Menstrual Cycle, Hunger at Night, Combining Protocols (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: Kelly: What are your thoughts on HRT? Jacob: I recently watched your video ‘Is too much REM sleep an issue, in the last month I’ve been having a lot more REM sleep due to more stress, I just wanted to know if being on my phone before bed could be contributing to more REM Sleep, because my phone helps me take my mind off things but then maybe because it makes my brain active it causes me to have many dreams but that’s why I am here asking for help. Tina: Hi Dr. Cabral. I’m hoping you can help me since nobody else has been able to. I have been low on vitamin D for years (steadily at 19), but have a strange reaction whenever I try to supplement with it. I’ll immediately start my period, even if I had just finished my cycle a week or 2 prior, it will start again. I have done DNA testing and discovered that I am compromised in every pathway when it comes to vitamin D. I have tried various forms of vitamin D3 from gummies, capsules, and even patches, with always the same result of starting my cycle prematurely. Every doctor I’ve talked to has never heard of this reaction and can’t figure it out. Please help. Erin: Middle of the night question HELP! So this has been going on awhile and it’s so frustrating. I wake up during the night and have the sensation of a gnawing/gurgling sensation somewhere above the belly button. Sometimes if I don’t eat something I start feeling awful.I can’t figure out what is happening and what to do. I did the OAT test which came back for fungal/mold overgrowth. Is it related to this? Will i ever be able to sleep without having a snack during the night? So frustrated on this. Thank you so much E: Hello and thank you so much for your care and generosity. A couple questions, all related: 1)When I emailed support they emphasized NOT recommended to combine protocols. But on episode 837 (detox dos & don’ts), you said it was fine. I feel confused. When and which protocols is it ok to combine? I’m currently doing CBO and want to do mold and HMD, I’m wondering if any can be combined to speed up the process. 2)Relating to the CBO finisher: It sounds like it can be helpful to start sealing gut during CBO? Could you talk about this a bit? Would this be in addition to doing it afterwards or…? Also, I mistakenly bought clean gut probiotic for use during the finisher. Is it ok to use that for first 2 months of finisher and then transition to the daily probiotic? Don’t fully understand difference Thank you for tuning into today's Cabral HouseCall and be sure to check back tomorrow where we answer more of our community’s questions! - - - Show Notes and Resources: - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: - - - Dr. Cabral’s Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?

3348: Pea Protein, Idiopathic Intercranial Hypertension, Detox & Zinc, Persistent Fatigue, Methylation & Morning Smoothie (HouseCall) 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… Diane: Greetings Dr. Cabral, I have been using the DNS powder for quite some time, however I found through taking the IGG Food Sensitivity test that I’m pretty sensitive to peas, certain beans, lentils, hemp hearts and other food sources. I noticed the DNS powder has yellow pea protein, not green pea protein and wondered if because of this I should refrain from using the powder and go directly to the Multi’s instead? I very much enjoy my daily morning shakes but don’t wish to add to the sensitivity problem. Thank you for any advice you can lend. Kim: I am a 54 year old female diagnosed with empty sella, idiopathic intercranial hypertension, and central apnea. Are there things that I can do to help myself naturally? Prescribed medications were not good for my kidneys. Currently waiting to see if my kidney function recovers . Thank you Kim John: Hey doc. I took the heavy metal test and was high in mercury and lead. I’ve been using the Therasage sauna you recommended 3 days a week for 30 minutes for about 2 years so I was surprised my numbers were high. I ordered the heavy metal detox and I wanted to know if I should stop taking your balanced zinc and hair support while on the detox . Thanks for all the great work you and your team is doing Stephen: Hi Dr. Cabral, Thank you for all you do to help people restore and maintain their health. I’ve been struggling with persistent fatigue and exhaustion for the past 10 years. No matter how much sleep I get, I’m always tired. I’ve done a 21 day and a 7 day FM detox which have made me feel better in other areas, but the fatigue persists. Do you have any chronic fatigue specific protocols or suggestions? Spencer: Hello Dr. Cabral I like the idea of a smoothie for breakfast full of 100% of my vitamins and minerals. However, I am an over methylater and tend to get hyper and anxious from the DNS. Is there any way I can still take it (perhaps anything I could take alongside) and avoid these symptoms apart from just lower the amount as I feel 1/2 to 1/4 scoop isn’t enough to make a smoothie palatable. I’ve found better results taking folate as folinic acid and B12 as adenosylcobalamin and hydroxocobalamin. I’m sure it’s not profitable to make a DNS with non methylated b vitamins since this won’t affect most people.

3347: Plasma Donations, Antibiotics & GI Issues, Red Light & Hair Growth, X39 Studies, Blood Clots (HouseCall) 04/05/2025

3347: Plasma Donations, Antibiotics & GI Issues, Red Light & Hair Growth, X39 Studies, Blood Clots (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: Michael: Hi Dr. Cabral! Thank you for the great work that you do! I'm hoping you can speak to the risk and benefits of regular blood and plasma donations. At what iron levels would you likely recommend someone give blood, if at all? Also, what is the difference between a plasma donation and plasmapheresis? Can you get similar benefits from regular plasma donations as you can from plasmapheresis? Thank you! Anonymous: Hi Dr Cabral, In my teenage years, I was quite often prescribed anitbiotics to combat cystic acne. I was mostly prescribed tetracycline, and a few others that I cant remember. I was on them for quite a while as I just did not respond well to acutane. Im a male and 40 years old now and I do have quite a bit of gi issues. My first GI doctor diagnosed me with dispepsia, though I wasnt tested for that so i dont know how he arrived at that conclusion. My 2nd GI Dr. ran a stool test that came back normal. Is it possible for such antibiotic during teenage years to lead to GI issues? I know nothing is certain without testing but just curious if its even a possibility considering it was so long ago and Ive largely avoided them since my 20's. Thanks Elizabeth: Hi, Dr. Cabral. On a previous show, you mentioned a red light therapy device and that devices get better every couple of years. I noticed the one on your resource pages is at least a couple years old, so I'm not sure it's still as effective as some of the newer ones. When looking for red light therapy caps for hair growth, what numbers (levels) and how many red lights should be the minimum in a red light therapy cap? Some can get quite pricey and I'm looking for something that is cost effective. Thank you so much! I look forward to hearing back! Marie-Eve: Hi Dr. Cabral, I am an IHP level 1 and soon 2 student. I have been using the X39 patch for the past 3 months and very much respect your knowledge about all things health. You have experienced, seen, read, done so many things in the health and wellness World and I take your opinion very seriously. You have mentioned a few times in your podcast that you have not seen any clinical studies about X39 and wanted to share these 2 with you. I was pleased to know about an affordable way to activate stem cells and copper peptides but I don't understand the deeper langage when it comes to researchers sometimes. I agree that blind testing is not enough and we need actual clinical studies to prove its benefits. I would love to hear your thoughts on those researches I found through my portal. Ian: Hi Dr. Cabral, I hope this message finds you well. One of my favorite basketball players, Victor Wembanyama (Wemby), was diagnosed with a deep vein thrombosis in his right shoulder, which is his shooting shoulder. He’s 7 feet, 4 inches and 21 years old. From my perspective, it’s very likely that taller people develop cardiovascular issues, and health issues in general, more often than shorter individuals... but Wemby is quite young and perhaps we might not expect cardiovascular issues at this age. I’d like to break down what may lead to blood clotting, especially in tall humans. What might the body be responding to with aggregations of blood in its attempt to reach its balanced state? Lastly, what modalities could be taken to mitigate blood clots in general, and athletes in particular?

I’m looking forward to sharing with you some of our community’s questions that have come in over the past few weeks… Kay: Hi Dr. Cabral, About a year ago, before I discovered you and your podcasts, my husband and I invested in a $4000 Tempurpedic mattress. I know that memory foam is generally synthetic and was wondering if you have recommendations to reduce any toxic effects? The instructions when we first received the mattress were to allow it to "air out" for a day, which we did. We now also sleep with an air filter in our bedroom. Any other suggestions or comments about Tempurpedic or memory foam mattresses in general? Thank you. Anonymous: Hi, this has been happening for a while & I am wondering what it means. When I wake up the inside of my nose stigns quite a lot. Sometimes it also happens during the day or it lasts throughout the day but mostly it’s the worst as soon as I wake up. It’s really annoying and then I usually rub my nose on the outside a lot until it subsides but it’s so weird and I have no idea what it means. Please help! Lindsay: Hi Dr Cabral, I looked over your information already given on acid reflex. I have two questions. What are the long term effects of omeprazole. What is a natural alternative? Thank you, Lindsay Anonymous: Hello Dr. C, I hope you're doing well. I wanted to reach out regarding an issue I've been experiencing. I have noticed an increase in heart rate after consuming alcohol. I never had any issues with occasional drinking prior. However, since having my first child and taking nearly two years off from alcohol, I now experience a racing heart whenever I drink. I've tried staying well-hydrated beforehand, but the issue persists. I have done a FM detox + Parasite detox in this 2 year period as well. I’m curious to hear your thoughts on what might be causing this change, especially since it wasn’t a problem in the past. Could it be a histamine issue or an overflowing rain barrel still? Jennifer: Thank you for all you do, Dr. Cabral! Your energy and drive inspire me! My Dad has to take Warfarin to thin his blood. What may be root causes for thickening of the blood? Where do I start?

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 Dr. Cabral, Thank you so much for the invaluable insights you provide — I truly appreciate it! I have two unrelated questions: 1. Do you have any thoughts or ideas on the potential causes of snoring? My husband isn't overweight, so I'm thinking it may be related to positional factors or anatomy. He doesn't experience apnea, but the snoring does disrupt his sleep. 2. I have a product from a functional medicine supplement company containing 350mg of linolenic acid and 1400mg of linoleic acid, both derived from high-quality, cold-pressed oils. If someone has an imbalanced omega-3:omega-6 ratio, with a higher omega-6 …it seems like this product would not help balance the ratio on its own and additional omega-3 supplementation be necessary, is that correct? Thanks again for your time Sharon: Hello. I have been listening to various topics on your podcasts. I was curious about the citricidal drops. You have mentioned you can use two drops with a neti pot and use that for a nasal rinse. How often is it ok to do this? I also see it used as a urinary tract protocol and as part of the CBO protocol. But then in one podcast, you said you shouldn't use the drops longer than 3 weeks. I'm not sure how long you use it for the urinary tract protocol (didn't see that on website), but can you use it for that and the CBO if you do those protocols back to back? How long should you wait between uses of the drops? Is urinary tract protocol only for a UTI or is it also a general urinary health protocol? Thank you. (I asked about neti pot on FB but seems like no one has used it for nasal rinsing.) Terri: I have read a couple of studies about Berberine being contraindicated for those with Hashimoto’s/hypothyroidism because it can interfere with absorption of thyroid hormone. There seem to be so many other benefits that I thought I’d come to you, the expert, the king and master of all things health, to answer my question…would you discourage someone with subclinical hypothyroidism and not taking any thyroid hormone from taking Berberine? Thank you for taking my question and for being so willing to help out the community with your wealth of knowledge. You truly are a blessing to so many! Brooke: I’ve been doing coffee enemas for 2+ years now, once as often as 2-3 times and week and now 1-2 times a month. I used to have a much easier time holding the coffee, easily holding 10-15 minutes. I usually do two back to back rounds 10-15 minutes each (1-2cups each time). Lately I can’t hold more than a few minutes, especially the first round. Also, I find that the day after a coffee enema I struggle to have a natural bowel movement. I’d say about 50% of the time I dont have a bowel movement the next day, is that okay? Bryna: Hi Dr. Cabral. About a year ago I came close to scheduling an appointment with your office and hope to do so again. Lately, I’ve been binge listening to your podcast making a list of questions and decided to send a message. What do you consider to be the healthiest frozen “treat”? I have reflux & gut issues and am always looking for ways to cool things down. After comparing ice cream / sorbet / gelato I concluded frozen yogurt was prob. the healthiest. Do you agree? Do you think frozen yogurt is a healthy snack in GEN? Could not find this topic when I searched the archives. Could ask a dozen more Q’s but just want to say I found your podcast back in ‘17 and have been listening off and on ever since. I value your opinion and insight more than my PCP and appreciate any insight.

3334: Weak Immune System, Methylene Blue & Petroleum, White Lines on Nails, Infant Stool, Topical Steroid Withdrawal (HouseCall) 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… Lara: Hi, dr. Cabral! Hope you & your family are doing well.. I’ve heard from a trusted source that people who never get sick actually have a bad immune system response.. that it means their immune system doesn’t recognise a threat (virus for example) & that’s why they never get sick.. but that doesn’t make sense to me, wouldn’t that just mean that the viruses would then just stay in your body if your immune system wouldn’t try to fight them? And they would wreak havoc on it? I don’t know if my way of thinking is correct but would love to hear your input on this.. thanks for all you do, you’re absolutely amazing! Anonymous: Hello, I am wondering in methylene blue. I found one of your podcasts where you mention it in a positive manner but now I am hearing about it being derived from petroleum?! So is it a synthetic petroleum-derived chemical? Or is it a great bio hacking tool? I don’t believe it can be both, but I know too little about it. Would love a whole show on it from your perspective, if possible, because it’s supposed to have so many benefits, but how if it’s made this way? Thanks Sarah: Hello!! Curious about the white lines on my nails. I've had them on and off throughout my life. I heard it could be about nutrient deficiencies. I've done the HTMA and completed a protocol to balance my minerals, I eat a clean whole food diet, I take HCL with my meals to help digestion. I also get a lot of random bruises on my legs, unsure if this is related. I've done the 7 day detox, CBO and heavy metals protocol, I take the DNS also zinc and omegas, aswell as l glutamine, creatine, collagen, vit D and some adaptogens. I dry brush, gua sha, rebound, sauna, exercise, lots of walking etc. Anything to be concerned about with the white lines on nails/bruising on the legs? Thanks so much for all you do Linda: Hey Dr Cabrel,I am writing about my granddaughter. She is almost 6 months old, breech cesarean birth baby, fully breast feed. My daughter is very health conscience, gluten free dairy free for years for her own health, lives as toxic free as possible. My question is the baby started to have some blood in her stool around 2 months which the Dr said is a reaction to what my daughter eats. She has limited so many things and eats the same thing every day. They think eggs/chicken are a big trigger as well as oats. Where do we go to find help. The Drs really dont have much to say for guidance and she is getting to an age to start with solids. Thanks! Slava: Hello, To Stephan Cabral: Have you ever dealt with a patient that was going through TSW (topical steroid withdrawal) symptoms? Currently on day 16 for the CBO protocol, have done the big 5 lab tests in 2023. Used corticosteroids since 2020. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
