It's time to get started with our first #HouseCall of the weekend! We have so many great community questions this weekend and it's best we just dive right in! Sue: Hi, Few questions regarding cooking. I often cook with coconut oil as I hear cooking with olive oil isn't healthy? Please can you confirm if I'm doing the right thing. Also, I often heat food up I've cooked in the microwave - can you let me know what the dangers to this are?? Thanks for answering. I love your show! Lindsey: Hi Stephen...

We've got a solid #FridayReview for you this week that runs the gambit from beating allergies to the 10th anniversary edition of an instant classic book that made mind-body medicine an approachable topic to talk about! My first review covers what I personally recommend in my practice for instant allergy relief and also how to recover from your allergic sensitivities in the long-run... Next up, I'm brining you one of the most unique olive oil companies in the world. They've literally turned the m...

Some of the best exercises in the world can actually be the most dangerous when done incorrectly... The reason for this is that although they mimic natural human movement, when the proper form isn't used your joints, tendons, and ligaments can be put at risk... Plus, when you add weight or resistance to the exercise you are greatly increasing your odds for injury whenever your technique breaks down... Check out today's #CabralConcept 433 for the top 10 most dangerous exercises and how you can av...

If you thought probiotics was a controversial topic and considered cutting-edge wait until you hear about "prebiotics" and their potential to improve (or hurt) gut health! Prebiotics actually aren't bacteria at all, but rather the food that feeds the bacteria already in your gut... The issue is that some prebiotics are more beneficial than others - especially if you're currently dealing with IBS, candida, SIBO, or another gut based issue... Tune into today's #CabralConcept 432 for a list of the ...

Bowel movements are one of those taboo topics that we're not supposed to discuss... We're told they're gross, disgusting and we need to pretend they don't even happen... But the issue is that your "poop" says a lot about the health of your digestion and overall internal health... Therefore, not talking about it, or knowing "what your poop says about you" leaves you in the dark about whether your system is functioning properly... The other reason this is so important is because your gut is litera...

No matter who you are, you're going to come to a point in your life where you feel like you've hit a wall... You just feel stuck... It's that feeling you get where you know you're in a place you're not not supposed to be - The idea or vision you have for yourself is much greater... It's at this point that you have to make a choice about going after that goal of yours or not... And if you do decide to believe in yourself enough to push forward, there are 3 main ways to make a breakthrough in your...

Welcome back to out 2nd Cabral #HouseCall of the weekend! We're picking up where we left off and I'm looking forward to sharing the answers to these community questions: Chelsea: Not sure if this is for the house call page, but I have a few questions. 1) I have vertical ridges on my fingernails that I can't seem to get rid of. I have hashimotos, Lyme, and chronic low WBC as well as chronic low BP. I'm on AIP and have been working with a functional doctor for a year but can't seem to figure out t...

I'm back with another #FridayReview and today we've got some great picks for you! The first thing I share is some cutting edge anti-aging research that is actually taking place right now - These treatments have the potential to add another 10-12 years to your life! Next up, I review an enzyme supplement that very few people have heard of, but it works wonders for the immune system and inflammatory pain... And finally, I'll be reviewing 2 new wearing technology devices. One helps women time their...

The interesting thing about goals is that almost anything can be achieved with enough time, persistence, and effort... The issue is that many of our goals have inadequate timelines, which leaves us feeling overwhelmed and anxious every time we think about them... The same holds true for any body transformation goals. You can literally change the shape of your body into any healthy form you're aiming for... You just have to make sure you set specific and measurable markers with a realistic deadli...

There's no doubt following a low-carb diet can work wonders (temporarily) for some health conditions as I've explained in the past... The issue is that not everyone responds well to staying under 50-100g of carbohydrates per day... And when that someone (maybe you) drops their carbs too low for too long their body begins to go into a protective, low metabolic state... From a survival standpoint, this is a very good thing - But, from a body transformation and health perspective the results aren't...

Edgar Cayce passed away a few years ago, but what he left us with was a treasure trove of natural remedies... Those remedies are finally being studied and research has irrefutably acknowledged what ancient forms of medicine and Cayce recommended as effective healing therapies... One of those therapies involves Castor Oil and the unique properties it holds in regards to reducing inflammation and balancing certain parts of the immune system... Cayce described an ancient Ayurvedic heat pack therapy...

The interesting thing about life is that you really can have and be anything you want, but you first have to know what it is that you actually want... And, maybe more importantly, you need to know who it is that you currently believe you are... You see, we've all been conditioned to believe we can achieve certain things, but not others, or that we are a "certain type of person..." This societal brainwashing causes a serious mental disconnect when it comes to the dreams and desires you have for y...

We're back with our 2nd Cabral #HouseCall of the weekend! And just like yesterday's Q&A we're going to be answering another round of community questions sent in by you, our listeners! Here are today's questions: Erika: Dr. Cabral - thanks so much for all of your podcasts. I can't wait to visit your practice in Boston sometime soon. I just had a terrible accident skiing, which involved an IV, ambulance ride, hours in the ER, and 48 hours of oxycodene. My X-rays show that I didn't break anythi...

This weekend on the Cabral #HouseCall we have our most questions ever answered over a 2-day period! Our community’s questions have been piling up, so we’re catching up this weekend with some amazing Q&A – Enjoy the show! Susan: Hi Dr. Cabral. I’m a rabid fan – and could probably spend most of this email heaping praise onto you, but I will get to the point because I know you are so very busy. My daughter has food sensitivities and we have been super diligent about removing the items we think ...

The #FridayReview is here and I've got some fantastic recommendations and reviews from this past week on all things wellness, weight loss & anti-aging! The first item I want to share with you is my protocol for helping both children and adults with earaches, sinus congestion, sore throats, and much more... Second, there's a fun KickStarter campaign going on right now that is offering a brand new machine (it's like a cross between a blender & food processor) to make homemade nut milk and ...

It's easy for all of us to hop on the band wagon and ride along with the current dogma of the day, but the problem is that the whole truth usually gets left behind... This is clearly evident when Interval Training became the dominant form of exercise (with good reason) for body transformation and overall health... The issue is that what often happens in our "all-in society" is that we bash and slander anything that doesn't fit in this box... That's why on today's #CabralConcept 419 I want to sha...

It's interesting, but study after study are confirming that there are healthy gut bacteria missing from people that gain weight easily and can't seem to take it off no matter what they do... So on today's show I want to bring that new, cutting-edge research to you and explain how to rebalance your gut bacteria to then help lose the weight and reshape your body for life!

One of the biggest misconceptions in nutrition and natural health is how to heal the gut using carbohydrates... The old way used to recommend cutting out all fruits, starches, grains, and most vegetables... However, modern science (as well as ancient Ayurvedic wisdom) has revealed that only certain types of carbs, sugars, and fibers need to be omitted for a short period of time... Following this type of plan, as well as adding back in fiber to your daily diet will ensure that your diverse gut mi...

Losing sight of what matters most to you in life can happen for 2 main reasons... The first one is that you're so caught up in your day-to-day activities, stresses, and ongoings that by the time you stop to breathe it's already time to go to bed... The second reason is that when we're actually going after our goals and what we truly desire in life we get lost in a sea of minutia that has very little bearing on what will move us forward... The way to break the cycle is to rewire our mind and cond...

Our 2nd BONUS REPLAY of the month is our 2nd most popular podcast download of all time! If you've already listened to this show I highly recommend a 2nd review ; ) Once you begin viewing weight loss as more than “calories in vs. calories out” you will be well on your way to finally achieving your goals… In my practice, I do my best to teach people that rebalancing your metabolism, hormones, inflammation, and blood sugar, are far more important to long term-success… However, in the short-term the...

We're back with our 2nd Cabral #HouseCall of the weekend and I'm happy to have you back with us! Here are today's community questions: Melissa: Dr. Cabral, I enjoy listening to your podcast and thank you for all of the wonderful information that you provide. After having my third baby three years ago via c-section, I have had significant pain in my stomach after eating meals. This began occurring 6 weeks post-delivery and does not seem to be related to any specific food. It typically occurs with...

Hello and thank you for tuning into this weekend's #HouseCall Q & A show! Here are today's amazing community questions! Brittany: Hi Dr. Cabral! I am getting ready to start your 7 day Dr. Cabral Detox and I was wondering: Do the limited calories on days 1 and 2 of the detox (200 calories each day) still allow for autophagy? I've read that you have to eliminate calories entirely for a period of time for autophagy to engage; is this true? I am just wondering if this detox can also serve as an ...

Back on episode 354 I brought you the "Top 15 Nutritional Supplements" Prescribed by Functional Medicine Doctors and health practitioners... It was one of our most popular shows and although I agree with the vast majority of those supplements and use them all in my practice, I did feel it was missing something... Many of those products are great to relieve symptoms, but I'm more interested in healing at a deeper level, which is why today I want to share with you a few nutritional supplements you...

Right now I want to share with you the massive benefits you get from making exercise a part of your weekly routine... Remember, just like good nutrition the results you get are cumulative and are best seen overtime. Now I know that you want those same results yesterday, but at the same time I'd prefer you keep them for life ; ) Plus, many of these benefits carry over to improving your mood, hormones, brain, function and other internal mechanisms you can't physically see a change in... Tune into ...

Low carb diets work. There's no doubt about that and the research shows that it helps with inflammation, regulating blood sugar, lowering insulin, and losing weight... What you don't hear though is that low carb diets don't work forever... And that's the issue. Most diets will work in the short-term, but what you really need to be successful and to skip the inevitable frustration is a long-term plan... So while going low-carb for up to 12 weeks can work, you need to know what to do after that in...

It seems like we're creating names for as many diseases as there are people on this planet... This is unfortunate because each "disease" is then matched up with a medication. And often times, the medication is for life and the patient is given no hope of recovery... But there is an alternative. That alternative is the belief (and fact) that what we call a chronic health condition is nothing more than a set of symptoms that rise to the surface... In Natural Medicine, we know that the symptoms are...

Before you ever get healthy, lose the weight, or enjoy the success in life you've been secretly wishing for, you must begin where every success story has ever started... And that place resides in your mind. You can have the best plan, the greatest guru, or the most caring coach, but it is your belief system that will ultimately carry you through to the finish line... In my practice, I've seen cancer and mystery illness patients be given no hope by conventional medicine only to walk away from the...

We have 5 more amazing community questions, so let's get right into them: Cassi: Hi Dr. Cabral - thank you so, so much for providing all the knowledge and information you share with is and most of all for free. It is so inspiring to see a person do something for the better of society and not only to make a "quick buck." My question is regarding the book The China Study. I know you reviewed this a long time ago, but can't find which episod...

Dawn: As a consumer, every podcast I listen to, I get intrigued by another vitamin? then I think I should add to my diet? then I don't know if I'm taking too much stuff? Like, I need more iron, zinc and magnesium. I'm 47, getting older, skin and hair changing - that freaks me out. So, I want lots of Biotin, Iron, Zinc - what about fish oil? What can I do to be looking younger longer or at least try? I know this is same for so many people - you get caught in all the marketing hype and it plays on...
