644: Public Service Warning on Food & Drugs (FR)

Although I believe in all forms of medicine it's becoming increasingly difficult to get behind conventional medicine after the latest news of bribes, deceit, and manipulation... I'm also finding it equally as difficult to support fast food "restaurants" even if they are trying to provide a lower cost option due to their blatant deception of what they're hiding in their "food"... Tune into today's #CabralConcept 644 for this latest public service warning on food and drugs and why it matters for y...

643: The 8 Exercises That Burn More Fat Than You May Think (TT)

While it's hard to draw straws on the best exercises for fat burning, I did want to share with you a few that stand out... On today's show I'll give specific examples of movements that cause the body more "stress" and as a results will provide far greater fat burning effects... These effects are also not just a temporary uptick in calorie burning - They actually boost your metabolism for up to 36 hours after your workout! Tune into today's #CabralConcept 643 to discover the 8 exercises that burn...

642: The 5 Factors of Why Men Burn More Fat than Women (TWT)

Rather than pretend that it's not harder for women to burn body fat at the same rate as men I'd rather share with you the reasons why that is... I figure that if you understand why men lose fat easier than women you can then use these "bio-hacks" to your advantage and try to ramp up your own natural fat burning systems... For more information on the 5 factors of why men burn more fat than women tune into today's #CabralConcept 432 - Enjoy the show! - - - Show Notes & Resources: http://Stephe...

641: The Winter Supplement You Can’t Live Without (TWT)

Believe it or not, there actually is a hierarchy of nutritional supplements... Superfoods, herbs, and tinctures all fall into the healing category of nice to have, but they do not necessarily meet your body's base-level nutrient requirements... You see, the body actually needs a very specific set of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and other cofactors necessary to carry on its daily processes... The interesting thing is that these requirements from a food or nutritional supplement standpoint can...

640: How to Attract What You Want Into Your Life (MM)

To quote Jim Rohn, "Too many of us walk down to the ocean with a teaspoon instead of a bucket..." Many of you already understand that you deserve more out of life and your goals have largely been left unmet... And when hopes, dreams, and goals remain unanswered we are left with a low-level sense of despair, discouragement, and anxiety... So although I agree that goal setting is important, what's been overlooked is how we go about the actual act of goal achievement... Tune into today's #CabralCon...

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… Let’s get started! Amanda: Hey Doc, Thanks for all your amazing information.

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! Melissa: Hi Dr. Cabral - my question is this: I am currently expecting my first baby (early December). I am choosing to have a natural birth at a birthing center and am hoping that you can steer me in the right direction for postpartum recovery. Some background: After college I didn't have a period for 5+ years. When I got m...

637: Use This As the Foundation for All Diets (FR)

I know there are thousands of diet variations on the market, but there is only one true foundation for human nutrition... Meaning, you can choose high fat/low fat, high carb/low carb, high protein/low protein, but in the end unless you're basing your diet plan around low glycemic, anti-inflammatory foods that are high in antioxidants you are missing the mark... Again, this may not matter to you in the short-term, but if your goal is to achieve long-lasting, permanent results I can't recommend en...

636: How to Exercise Right for Your Type (TT)

Although movement must be a part of everyone's daily and weekly routine, the amount of exercise should actually change based on the individual... Unfortunately, in our all-for-one culture we have lost the bio-individuality component to allow for some diversity amongst recommendations... Tune into today's #CabralConcept 636 for details on how to exercise right for your type, so that you don't over or under do your workouts - Enjoy the show! - - - Show Notes & Resources: http://StephenCabral.c...

635: What Nobody Ever Tells You About Being Overweight (WW)

I'll be the first person to say that there is no need or benefit to being super skinny, but when I do speak on the topic of weight loss it's because of the health issues associated with it... Many people don't realize that there are over a dozen "diseases" and a half-dozen cancers that increase in risk the more over weight a person becomes... This is why losing weight first and foremost is a health issue rather than simply a body transformation one... Tune into today's #CabralConcept 635 for all...

634: The Early Warning Signs of Nail Diagnosis (TWT)

I had previously done a podcast on "What your tongue says about your health," and today I'd like to follow up along the same lines... However, today we'll be assessing your nails and what all the different deviations from the norm may mean... For example, if you have dry, brittle, peeling, ridged, white, dark red, pitted, black specks, white spots, or brown lines they can all mean that there may be some underlying health issue... Tune into today's #CabralConcept 643 for the early warning signs o...

633: How to Reclaim Your Life & Get Back on Track (MM)

Every once in awhile we all get to a place that seems dark, dreadful and hard to pull ourselves out of... If you ever find yourself here, don't despair and do understand that there is always hope... You can and will find a way out as long as you do not give up and you look towards the success of others... There is someone out there that has been where you are right now and has made it out to the other side - Replicate that success... For more details on how to reclaim your life and get back on t...

I’m looking forward to sharing with you some of our community’s questions that have come in over the past few weeks… Let’s get started! Ronda: I have a deep ridge in one of the nails on my left hand that has been there for close to a year. I have not slammed it in anything so I am concerned it is the sign of an underlying condition. Any and all information on what to do would be greatly appreciated. It has been there for close...

Welcome back to our #FridayReview where I'm taking a little time out today from our typical routine of bringing you the latest books, supplements, products, and research to get you closer to your wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging goals... Instead, today we are going to answer some frequent listener questions around how I plan my day, try to get a lot done, what I do to unwind, and how I record my daily podcast...

629: It’s Time to Switch Over to Cold Weather Workout Routines (TT)

Believe it or not, it's actually best to change up your workout programs based on the seasons... The reason for this is that most people typically have a "peak season" where they want to look their absolute best for. This means that for the rest of their year they should be planning their workout routines around peaking at the right time... And, one of the best seasons to completely change up your program is in the Winter (cold weather). It allows you to go through certain exercises and rep rang...

628: How a Slow Thyroid Makes You Overweight & Unhappy (WW)

Your thyroid is almost like the "watchman" of the body where it's constantly assessing the situation of how you're doing in terms of nutrition, stress, hormones, toxicity, sleep, and exercise... When one of those begins to falter there's usually back-up systems in place in order to rebalance the body and make up for a lack in one area... However, over time your body does not compensate as well and as a result your overall metabolism (a.k.a. thyroid) can begin to suffer and slow... Tune into toda...

627: The Real Different Between a Cleanse, Detox & Fast (TWT)

Have you ever wondered what the difference was between a cleanse, a detox, and a fast? Or if there is even a difference at all? I'll be honest, right now most companies market their products completely unaware of the differences, and therefore, you may be mistakenly not getting the results you're looking for...

626: Is It Normal to Struggle in Life? (MM)

I'm not sure if the planets are in some sort of odd astrological alignment, but from what I've been experiencing and seeing all around me there seems to be a general transition happening right now ... What's stranger is that many people are at a loss as to which direction to move in. They may have tried to make a pivot in life and for some reason it's not going as planned... The issue is that what you may not realize is that these "growth periods" need to occur in your life - Your life would act...

Welcome back to our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions! Here are today's topics: Jen: Hi Dr. Cabral, I was looking at your weight loss testing because I'm interested in finding out what my specific body need in order to get on the right plan for weightloss and wellness. I was also reading that your genetic testing can also tell me what my specific body needs in order to lose weight and I was wondering if you could t...

I'm looking forward to our community's questions today, so let's get started with these Q&As: Monica: Hello, I had wonderful success several years ago with the Fatlossity program so I decided to do it again. Because it has been so long since I bought the original program, I recently bought the Fatlossity 2.0 Diet Plan. I'm excited and ready to being but I'm a little confused about what exercises to perform and in what order. The prev...

623: The 7 Supplements to Reverse & Slow Aging (FR)

When it comes to winning the battle against aging what we're really looking to do is keep our energy, stamina, mood, vitality, and body strong... This means putting good quality foods in our body, exercising (without overdoing it), getting adequate sleep, and doing things that boost our mood... But, there are also some additional ways you can take your health and longevity to the next level. One of those ways is by using science-backed nutritional supplements proven to keep you feeling (and look...

622: How to “Ice the Cake” on Your Workouts (TT)

Some people love to exercise, while others despise it, but the bottom line is that if you want to get into great shape you really do need to include at least a little movement into your day... This is why I'm a big believer in doing the exercises that maximize your results with the least amount of time involved... After all, we're all busy and lead pretty hectic lives, so our workouts shouldn't add more confusion or stress to that equation... And, on today's #CabralConcept 622 I'll clearly lay o...

621: The 5:2 "Up-Down" Dieting Method (WW)

Although I have previously reviewed this style of "dieting" before I have gotten so many questions on intermittent fasting (IF) and which form is best, that I thought it deserved a more thorough discussion... The problem is that there are so many different types of IF diet plans that it's often difficult to surmise which plan is best for you... After all, you need to figure out if you should just eat dinner one day, skip meals all together, or if you should just drop your calories for a couple o...

620: The 5 Facial Signs You Have a Food Sensitivity (TWT)

Food sensitivities are one of the most misunderstood health issues plaguing our culture... Since a food sensitivity isn't a direct allergy that could result in death or an immediate disease symptom, they are often overlooked... However, what a food sensitivity does is cause short and long-term stress on your immune system that can eventually lead to what we label as "diseases." This means that eating certain foods (even healthy ones) could be causing your immune system unknown stress unless you ...

619: How to Break Negative Thought Patterns (MM)

An ancient secret was known to all philosophers of almost every culture thousands of years ago before it was "lost" in today's modern society... At one point a general knowledge existed that our deepest thoughts are what ultimately lead to our feelings, which eventually manifest themselves in our actions... And those actions eventually become what we see in our lives . The problem is that we don't always like what we see and we don't feel we really asked for what we're currently getting... So on...

616: A 6,000 Year Old Discovery Holds the Answers to Healing What Ails You (FR)

Much of the health, wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging information we're uncovering today is actually more of a "re-discovery" than a new breakthrough... The reason I say this is that there are 6,000 year old texts that very succinctly lay out how to overcome dis-ease, weight gain, and pre-mature aging... The issue is that these texts are very rarely studied and because of that most people (and doctors) are missing out on the potential "cure" to what ails them... Tune into today's #CabralConc...

I often find myself in the interesting predicament of knowing something is working in my practice, but don't have the science to back it up... Many health practitioners and personal trainers share this same sentiment and get frustrated with the lag time between research and the real world... Meaning, often times practitioners of their craft will be doing things that are getting people fantastic results, but the data won't show up on Pubmed or in the scientific literature for a decade later...
