494: My Top 7 Cancer Fighting Foods for Daily Use (TWT)

Right now, statistics show 1 out of every 3 people will get cancer in their lifetime... And by the year 2030, that number will increase to 1 out if 2. Just as bad, the cost of getting cancer set you back over $100,000 in "treatments"... These are some scary stats that we need to start doing something about right now. And, one of the best ways to help prevent cancer in the first place is by what we choose to put in our mouth... On today's #CabralConcept 494 I'm going to share with you my "Top 7 C...

493: You Must Remove This Phrase From Your Vocabulary (and Your Children's) (MM)

Although it's not very well known one of the main drivers for success is how you speak to yourself... This refers to the non-verbal, as well as the words spoken out loud where you're either building yourself up or putting yourself down... Most of the time we're completely unaware of this self-talk that is always taking place, but the truth is that until we get this sun-conscious speak to work for us we may be destined to never fully reach our potential... Tune into today's #CabralConcept for the...

Thank you for joining us for the 2nd day of our Cabral HouseCalls! Here is today's community Q&A: Shawn: Hi Dr Cabral, Can you recommend a protocol to heal a tear around the area of the anal sphincter. It was likely caused by poor diet choices and major constipation. I've cleaned up my diet (no wheat, dairy, etc), but the wound does reopen every few months or so. Lisa: Hi Dr. Cabral, Loving your podcast and the time you put into it to help so many! I have a couple questions, what cookbook or...

Here are today's questions: Kerry: Please give me your thoughts on rice flour (looking for gluten free options) I was tempted to buy sprout brown rice flour but remembered that its recommended to have rice sparingly due to the natural arsenic in it. Is this something I should limit or use at all? Anon: Hi Dr. Cabral, What is your take on fibroids? I performed a quick searc...

488: The Difference Between Adrenal vs. Thyroid vs. Weight Loss Testing (WW)

In the very near future you'll hear more about the power of Functional Medicine Testing in the media... Although it's been around for decades, unfortunately many people haven't been exposed to a resource that very well may be the catalyst that helps them achieve their wellness, weight loss, or anti-aging goals... The reason I'm so passionate about this is that Functional Medicine lab testing is what helped me figure out the underlying root causes for why I was feeling sick even when the "best do...

487: The Delusion of Disease (TWT)

Some people are desperately seeking medical help trying to figure out what is wrong with them... The problem is that they are looking to be told they have some name of a "disease" that they can then hang their hat on and finally feel like their pain and suffering is justified... Although I've been through this myself and I truly understand this longing for an answer, the problem is that being diagnosed with a disease is one of the worst things that can happen to you... The reason I say this is d...

486: Why is Happiness So Elusive? (MM)

Sometimes the thought of running away from it all is very enticing... It's caused many a person to daydream about moving to a quiet island and living out the rest of their days in a state of perpetual relaxation... This idea can be a draw, but will it actually make you happy? On today's #CabralConcept 486 we explore this concept of happiness and many others before finally pinning down why happiness seems to be so elusive - Enjoy the show! - - - Show Notes: http://StephenCabral.com/486 - - - Get ...

482: The Best & Worst Times to Stretch (TT)

We've been told for decades that the way to become more flexible and prevent injuries is to stretch... However, new data has repeatedly shown that stretching for the sake of stretching does not improve flexibility, nor does it prevent injuries... It turns out, though, there is a specific way and time to stretch that does work and it can be done in as little as 30-90 seconds... For details tune into #CabralConcept 482 for "The Best & Worst Times to Stretch" - Enjoy the show! - - - Show Notes:...

481: Shrink Your Stomach with These Food Combining Principles (WW)

Transforming your body has so much more to do with how and what you eat, than just counting calories alone... The reason for this is that not all foods are created equal and to make things more complicated some foods don't combine well together... And, if those poor food combinations are eaten at the same meal it can cause bloating, toxic build up, weight gain, inflammation, and disease... But of course, there is an easier way and on today's #CabralConcept 481 I'll share with you the ancient foo...

480: The 9 Vegan Foods to Fix Your Liver (TWT)

Your liver is "hands down" the most important organ in your body... If it starts to weaken even just a little, every other organ has to work much harder and your blood begins to become a toxic cesspool leading to headaches, fatigue, skin issues, aging, and disease... This is why it's so important to be working on strengthening your liver with whole foods on a daily basis... A few weeks ago I shared many foods on how to detox your liver, and today on the #CabralConcept 480 I want to provide you w...

I doesn't matter who you are, every one at some point or another has suffered pain and hardship in their life... Sometimes this pain seems to last forever though, and we can find ourselves in a position of very little hope... It's at these times when we need to assess what we are doing to pull ourselves out of this challenging position... On today's #CabralConcept 479 I will help you take some "inventory" on your life and see what you may be missing that others are using right now to become more...

475: How to Recover Faster from Your Workouts (TT)

We all know that exercising is good for our health, but sometimes a workout can leave you sore and dragging the next day... When this happens, it can often be a sign that your body is missing something... This can be a lack of certain vitamins, amino acids, protein, or other factors, which help to rebuild your body and increase muscle protein synthesis (MPS)...

Whether you're suffering from a low metabolism, brain fog, poor mood, or you've been diagnosed with hypothyroid or Hashimoto's, today's show is for you! By popular request, I've been asked to share what I use in my practice to help people heal their thyroid disorders naturally...

473: When to Use Naturopathic vs. Functional vs. Conventional Medicine (TWT)

Every form of medicine believes it is the best and only form of health care to use in world... Each one cites examples of how it has helped millions of people while excluding the virtues of all the others... What I've learned from studying and interning in clinics and hospitals all over the world is that every form of medicine holds in it the power to heal - the problem is that you need to know which one to use and when... In today's #CabralConcept 473 I explain "When to Use Naturopathic vs. Fun...

472: You Have to Believe (MM)

It's great to have goals and it's great to want to achieve something that you've never done before, but there's a reason why most people (greater than 9 out of 10) never achieve their goals... The reason for this is that they lack a certain system of moving them forward into their "goal achievement" state... This goes beyond developing a plan and taking action. It's a prerequisite for anyone trying something new for the very first time... On today's #CabralConcept 472 I share how to begin to dev...

Crunches are one of the least efficient ways to work your abs... Will they work? Yes, but so does long-distance running for weight loss - However, in those exercises take more time than they're worth... The good news is that there are a handful of exercises you can do that will not only tighten and trim your waist, but they'll also boost your metabolism at the same time (something crunches can't do)!

Most people have been told it's simply not possible to spot reduce their belly fat... They believe that in order to shrink their waistline they must wait until they lose all their other body fat first... This has been ingrained into our thought process, since the old belief was that belly fat was the last to go after you had lost all the other weight... And while this still holds a lot of truth, there are 3 specific ways you can use diet, exercise, and hormone balance in order to get the results...

It's very rare that any nutritional supplement has such a noticeable effect the first time you use it... Typically, it takes weeks for the effects to be felt, and even then they are subtle... This is not the case with CBD Oil. You feel it the very first time you try it... It feels like a wave of relaxation and relief over your body, which is why it has such a great healing effect on everything from stress, anxiety, addiction, inflammation, mood, sleep, and so much more...

We all have goals in life... And yes, having goals is important, but the goal achievement does not always provide the happiness you thought it would...
