If I could make only ONE suggestion on how to help people get well, lose weight, or combat the aging process, it would be with a Functional Medicine detox protocol...

It's been my experience that the majority of schooling (even Naturopathic) teaches us to treat the individual as an object that is almost like a car out of alignment... We look to prescribe a medication or natural supplement in order to heal (in the case of conventional medicine "suppress") the health issue, but we pay very little attention to the silent cries of the patient... What if the real reason a person can't get well has more to do with their dominant thoughts rather than their physical ...

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! Lauren: Hi Dr Cabral, First, thank you! You continue to help me daily! This question is for my sister. She is 32 and after doing a month of whole 30 she found out she has a mild case of crohns in the tail of small intestine. She only got ct scan and colonoscopy with biopsy. The gastro told her...

I'm very careful about whom I introduce to you on my podcast - the special guest has to be someone that literally walks the walk (not just talks the talk)... Today's guest embodies just that: Melissa Ambrosini's life is one of service, love, gratitude and paying it forward... Her words will move you and her emotionally charged advice is 2nd to none when it comes to how to improve your relationships and love life... Tune into today's #CabralConcept 819 to listen to my conversation with Melissa Am...

In any industry that has the ability to do a lot of good, you'll inevitably find a few "bad actors" that try to smear the good name of those looking to server others... This is the exact case in the nutritional supplement industry where cutting-edge Ayurvedic, TCM, and Functional Medicine formulas are literally giving people their life back (along with healthy lifestyle modifications), but still a few companies are trying to ruin things for everyone else... What they do is use very cheap ingredi...

If you suffer from low mood, high cholesterol, poor muscle tone, weak connective tissue and bone, or aging skin/hair/nails, it may be a sign that your natural growth hormone levels are declining... With age, everyone's internal production of growth hormone begins to slow down and with it goes our vitality, strength, mood, and suppleness... The good news is that we know ways around this phenomenon including a simple way to give your body a healthy boost every week (no matter what your age!)... Tu...

The problem with heart health issues is that we usually never worry about them until it's too late... Our reason for pretending nothing is going on is completely normal since we've never been taught what the signs or symptoms are weeks, months or even years before a heart attack, stroke, or cardiovascular event takes place... But all that changes today on the #CabralConcept 816 where we'll review the 11 early warning signs of heart health issues - Enjoy the show! - - - Show Notes & Resources...

When I hear someone utter the words, " failure is not an option " I usually crack a little smile, since I know they must be new to this game we call life ; ) The funny thing is that the person uttering that phrase is actually more correct than they even know - but for the wrong reasons... You see, failure is not an option. It's the only option in life. You don't get what you want in life, or achieve your wildest dreams without numerous failed attempts... On today's #CabralConcept 815 I'll share ...

Check out today's questions: Eliana: Hi, I am addicted to your podcasts! They have taught me so much. My question today is about the timing of carbs. It makes sense to me that with my goal of getting lean, it would be best to eat my carbs earlier in the day and none at night (after 3?). I heard your episode about meal type/t...

Today's #FridayReview is jam-packed full of some of my favorite new recommendations, research, and of course this week's super-nutrient of the week!

Did you know that until just a couple of hundred years ago, it was common knowledge and practice to detoxify with the changing seasons? Of course, it only makes sense when you think about how your body has to transition and adapt from a colder to warmer environment (as well as dealing with dampness, etc.)... Fortunately, this knowledge has not been lost and through the preserved works of Ayurvedic and Traditional Chinese Medicine we can begin to see how best to help our bodies remove the sluggis...

It's hard to imagine a scenario where looking at proper gut function, digestion, and absorption of nutrition wouldn't come into play... After all, even if you're eating a great diet what truly matters in the long-run is if your cells are getting that nutrition... And, for people with weak digestive systems that may have been compromised by antibiotics, alcohol, birth control, ibuprofen, stress, poor food combining, etc. they may be on the road to slowly declining in both mental and physical heal...

One of the fastest ways to heal the body is to eliminate the stressors that are currently holding it back from rejuvenating itself... One of the first stressors that must be removed is the eating of foods that your body is sensitive to... The reason for this is that food sensitivities (or allergies) cause an inflammatory immune response every time they are eaten... Overtime, this greatly wears down the body's defenses and leads to greater dis-ease in the body and mind... On today's #CabralConcep...

There are many strategies and principles when it comes to achieving the life you want to live, but very few matter if you don't get this right: Unless you're willing to really get crystal clear on what that end goal looks like, it will be difficult to then follow the in between steps needed to attaining that which you desire... On today's podcast I look forward to helping you visualize what an end goal should look like, as well as how to create the strategy to making that dream a reality... Tune...

Jenett: Hi Dr. Cabral, I am interested in what supplements you would recommend to help keep the skin more youthful. I heard a combination of collagen, Omega 3's and a good probiotic, would help.

Although I truly believe those working in the field have a huge advantage over those studying exercise physiology in a controlled lab environment, every once in awhile I come across some research that we can all agree upon... Usually those studies revolve around foundational exercise programming that every human should be following... I also believe that one of the reasons why people are getting injured more than ever or completely burning out their adrenals & thyroid (HPTA Axis) is because ...

Wouldn't it be great if we knew what foods were undeniably "bad" for our thyroid and metabolism and which foods actually benefited them?

Today's topic is no doubt going to raise a few eyebrows, ruffle a few feathers, and have a few people seeing red, but... I ask if that is your initial reaction without first hearing the research what is your allegiance to eating meat? And, in today's podcast I'm not actually telling you not to eat any meat, but I do find it interesting when a research study with thousands of people in it provides some telling data why can't we listen first? Remember, " I have no dog in the race " and my #1 and o...

I have to admit that at one point in my life I was searching deeply for the answers on how to remove this human condition we refer to as "suffering..." At the time I was angry, unwell, my body was broken, and I had very little going for me... What I was looking for was a magic pill, undiscovered path, or some other remedy that could transport anywhere, but here... However, after taking time to study the world around me and dig into ancient philosophies dating back thousands of years I discovered...

It doesn't seem possible, but believe it or not, children as young as 8 years old are starting to succumb to adult dis-eases...

If you're at a loss for how to get well, keep the weight off, or live longer the very first place I recommend looking into is your overall gut health... And, you may very well be surprised to find that the majority of people who are struggling with some type of body, mind, or health issue have a degree of gut dysbiosis... This means that their intestinal tract has some type of over growth of yeast or fungus (Candida) or bacterial overgrowth (SIBO, C. Diff, etc.), or both... This can be lab teste...

My wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging philosophy was shaped by a decade of feeling unwell, thousands of books read, studying under dozens of mentors, and interning in natural medicine ...

What was once a "woo-woo" metaphysical concept called "The Law of Expectation" is now being proven by quantum physics... The problem is this powerful concept will most likely never be taught in schools and there's no way the media will be sharing this information with you...
