Too often we choose our workout based on what we see in magazine, whatever is most popular this month, or maybe at friend's suggestion... The problem is that your workout can either do wonders to build up your health and transform your body, or it can slowly break you down and make you feel worse overtime... What I'd like to do today is share with you how to find the best workout for you. This means you'll learn how your exercise routine should actually balance out your life and not push it in o...

After hearing a story the other day about how a child at daycare was being given Skittles (candy) as a reward for good behavior, I knew I needed to share this with you... When food is provided as a reward for doing "good work" or behaving in a certain way that the parent/teacher is looking for, it begins hardwire the brain in a way that looks at food now as something beyond just fuel for the body... Food has now become linked with being "good," and "feeling good." This can set children (and adul...

I know you've been told over and over that to lose weight, get well, end the joint pain, improve your mood, and sleep better that you must reduce inflammation... I don't deny that decreasing inflammation will help every area of your body and health, but I do want to let you know reducing inflammation is not the answer in the long-run... You see, inflammation is still just a symptom. That means it is being caused by something else. Which means, there is an underlying root cause to why that inflam...

Have you ever noticed that the people that do the most criticizing and judging are typically the unhappiest with there own life? Over the years I've come to see that placing judgment on others actually hurts you more than it does the other person. The reason for this is that when you are always living in a world of judgment, you become a victim of it yourself in your own mind… Tune into today's #CabralConcept 226 where I discuss why people can be so critical of others and how to escape this vici...

I'm back with another #FridayReview and excited to bring you these 4 items I use everyday in my #Boston practice to help people get well, lose weight, and feel great! Today, I'll be reviewing a book that shows you color photos of common (and not so common) skin issues that you may be suffering from.

Many people don't know what a rebounder is until I mention it's other name that you're most likely more familiar with… When most of us were kids we called it a trampoline and used to jump up-and-down on it and have some fun! Well did you know it's actually used today as a great way to get a workout in, and also improve your health and wellness? Believe it or not, it's one of the very best ways to move your lymphatic system, improve your cardiovascular health, and even lose weight! Check out toda...

Getting rid of cellulite takes a multi-pronged approach. You must both address the elimination of excess body fat, and then the reshaping of the "septae" holding the fat cells in place... This isn't as hard as it seems and it's something we help women with every week in our Boston practice. The first step is an elimination diet along with healthy detoxification protocols to begin eliminating excess toxic water weight and fat stores... Next, we "unclog" the lymphatic system and begin to remove th...

There's really no longer a question of do you need to detox, so today I want to teach you why it's so important and how to get the most out of it... With close to 100,000 man-made, synthetic chemicals in the environment escaping toxins in 2016 is just out of the question. Therefore, it's imperative that we understand how our body detoxifies these chemicals and what it needs to support this process...

What would you regret not accomplishing in your life? That's the first place I start when trying to help people assess what's most important to them and what they should set as goals... Too much of the time we expend our time and energy trying to work on projects or accomplish things that we think we should do, or we feel should be important to us... In the end this takes precious time away from accomplishing what we really do desire deep down inside... Listen in to today's #CabralConcept 219 as...

I believe you can still get great weight loss results without sacrificing your long-term metabolism or health... The reason I say that is that I see too many people jumping from diet plan to diet plan without a clear vision in mind for how they're planning on keeping the weight off... Any fad diet can get you results in the short-term, but how do you make it sustainable? What you need is a plan from the start of how you'll lose the weight healthily and then keep it off for life...

One of the most overlooked causes of weight gain and wellness issues is toxic water weight... Toxic water weight is what I refer to as the end product of what your body does to compensate for toxins in the blood that the liver can't keep up with detoxifying... With over 77,000 man-made chemicals in the environment your body can get overwhelmed and as a result toxins are forced into your adipose tissue (fat cells) which cause those cells to swell... Although this keeps your blood cleaner by pushi...

Sometimes we can be our own worst enemy and talk down to ourselves in a way that we would never allow others to do… The problem is that this type of self-talk is actually worse than when it comes from others… When we talk negatively to ourselves it begins to hardwire a negative self-image in our mind that then becomes “our story…” Tune into today’s #CabralConcept 212 for exact details and to find out how to break the cycle, so that you can begin to change your life!

One question I get a lot for both wellness and weight loss is if you should be snacking between meals… And although bio-individuality does play a role in all nutritional recommendations, when it comes to snacking all of us should be working towards one specific goal in terms of how many times we should be eating per day… The science now is very specific on how many meals you should have per day maximum and how long you should go between eating… Tune in to today's #CabralConcept 207 to find out t...

Symptoms of a congested liver show up as skin rashes, acne, fatigue, anger, irritability, bloating, cramping under the right rib cage, poor fat digestion, and overall sluggishness... One of the reasons for blocked or congested liver bile ducts is due to high fat fried meals, certain medications, heavy metals, cholesterol build up, weak stomach acid, and more...
