I believe that happiness means something different to all of us, which is why it can be so difficult to help others find their joy... However, I also believe that everyone can find happiness if they know where to look. The problem is too often we're told to "go out and seek happiness in life" when the answer we search for lies hidden within... Tune into today's #CabralConcept 289 as I breakdown a simple system for how to increase joy and happiness in your life - You'll be glad you did... Enjoy t...

It's time to get started with today's first edition of this weekend's Cabral #HouseCall! Here are today's community questions: 1. Suzanna: Hi, Thanks for all your invaluable info. I'm a personal trainer and listen to your podcasts using a lot of your advice to help my own clients. I was listening to 4th Nov podcast about juicing where you mentioned the ketogenic diet. You said you don't agree with it long term and that you don't use it for more than 3 weeks with your clients. Would you please el...

The most important thing you put in your body is water. Most of us don't drink enough of it. However, total consumption isn't even the biggest problem we're dealing with when it comes to our drinking water... Did you know that EVERY major city tested in the U.S. found contaminants and dozens of pharmaceutical drugs in their tap water supply? Known cancer causing and brain-damaging chemicals like mercury, lead, aluminum, fluoride, and chlorine (in addition to the anti-depressant drugs found) are ...

Almost everyone that comes to see me in my practice would love a little more energy (sometimes a lot more), but increasing energy by artificial means is not the answer and often times can be downright dangerous... Your body's own natural cortisol and hormone rhythms need to be respected and understood - but unfortunately many supplement manufacturers don't care about long-term damage by causing excess adrenal output and how it can lead to a future of burnout and a depressed mind and body... On t...

I know most people are trying to avoid processed sugar, and rightly so, but did you know that zero-calorie, artificial sweeteners are actually more dangerous than sugar itself? For example, Aspartame has been shown to cause neurological issues, birth defects, low mood, poor concentration, fatigue, ADD/ADHD, eye problems, hormone imbalances, and potentially even a link to cancer... But this is just one of many legal artificial sweeteners to be allowed to be sold to children and adults, which is p...

It's amazing how when you get your mind right everything begins to fall into place... But, this is often easier said than done - unless of course you begin to tap into your body's own natural way of processing information and producing energy. Once you do this change becomes easy and you won't have to use pure willpower to push through each day... This one tip has transformed my life and has allowed me to fall asleep effortlessly, wake up without an alarm, and get twice as much done during the d...

While it's true that we all get the same 24 hours in a day how is it that some people seem to get so much more done than others? What is their secret? Are they just born motivated or smarter than the rest of us? I think the answer will surprise you - Especially when you find out the tricks they use to get more done in less time...

We're back with the 2nd edition of the weekend Cabral #HouseCall ! Here are today's community questions I'll be answering: Jen: Hi! I have two questions I've been thinking about and thought maybe they could be good for the podcast. One only affects half of the population, as you'll see: 1) what are your thoughts on the blood type diet? 2) what are your natural recommendations for common vaginal infections such as yeast infections or bacterial vaginosis?

Thank you so much for your wonderful podcast. I am so happy to have discovered it. I have two questions for you. I have been recently diagnosed with hashimotos, and am taking T3 and T4. The one thing that has yet to improve is that I am still ALWAYS cold. I am an athlete, work out, eat relatively cl...

I've said it before and I'll say it again - I don't think I would be where I am today without my 1-2 smoothie a day habit... Out of everything I did to improve my digestive, adrenal, hormone, detox, skin, and other health issues, drinking my morning smoothie was and still is #1. So because of that discovery, I've pretty much used and experimented with every blender imaginable (I also love gadgets!)... On today's #CabralConcept 279 I break down the differences between the Vitamix vs. Blendtec vs....

Typically, I save my book reviews for Friday's on the podcast, but today I wanted to review all the ways you can slow the aging process and look & feel younger! I also hand-picked my Top 10 from this book (of over 100 tips) and the best part is that these tips are all easy to implement as part of your daily routine. Plus, each one is backed by science and proven to be effective for the majority of people. Tune into today's #CabralConcept 278 for the "Best Ways to Stop Aging & Stay Young!...

A lot of people believe that cutting edge medical science is reserved for pharmaceutical drugs only, but that couldn't be any further from the truth... And there's almost no better example of this then when looking at Functional Medicine nutritional supplements (not the ones at your local Costco, Walmart or drug store)... The same peer-reviewed research goes into true health supporting supplements and an excellent example of that are the specific strains studied that have been proven to aid in w...

Leaving your health to chance this winter is not a good idea... And that's why I recommend using this powerful natural flu shot and cold recipe! It is something you can take at the first sensations you feel when you are getting a cold, or you can do what I do and take a shot of it each morning to stay healthy & high energy all day (and winter) long! Tune into today's #Cabral Concept 276 where I share my all natural, immune boosting, superfood shot. Don't wait for a cold to come to you this w...

In 1943, Abraham Maslow published a groundbreaking paper on a human's hierarchy of needs... For the first time a guide was simply laid out in 5 easy to understand steps on how to get your needs fulfilled and in what order to feel like you have achieved "self-actualization (your potential)." This pyramid holds the key to enjoying a happy life... Tune into today's #CabralConcept 275 to see where you fall on the 5 levels of getting your basic human needs met, so that you may finally live that fulfi...

We're back with our 1st Cabral HouseCall of the weekend! Here are today's questions: Anon Female: Herpes/Cold Sores Remedy I'm wondering if you could cover the following topics on your podcast: I know you did a quick segment on herpes (type 1, simplex) on your show once, but I'd really love for you to cover this in more detail. I've been getting cold sores on my face (lip, nose, eyes) since I was a little girl and still go through periods where I'm getting them all the time. If I can take valtre...

Welcome to the #FridayReview where we'll be talking about all things wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging in regards to the health benefits of juicing! Today's first product review is on the juicer I finally settled on after trying out over a dozen. The one I'll be talking about doesn't oxidize your fruits & vegetables the same way most commercial models do... Next, I outline my favorite Fall juice recipe! It's has just the right amount of sweet (and warmth) to enjoy as temperatures start t...

One of my favorite ways to start the day is with a little "Lymphercise!" It's a great way to get your blood circulating, boost oxygen to your brain, improve your mood, and move your lymph...

20 years ago, my digestive system was barely functioning. I had trouble breaking down even easy to digest foods... This led to a gradual weakening of my body and immune system, which resulted in a host of fatigue, GI, skin, auto-immune, brain fog, and other conditions... It wasn't until I found out about the healing power of smoothies that I actually began to rebuild my body from the inside out. For the first time, I was able to absorb the nutrition from the pre-digested liquid smoothies and my ...

There's probably no other plant based food in the world with more controversy and arguments over it than coffee... On one side, we have the coffee proponents who talk about its high levels of antioxidants and the research showing it can improve everything from cardiovascular function to decreasing Alzheimer's... Then, there are the anti-coffee advocates with an equaling compelling argument that coffee can over-stimulate the adrenal glands, cause burn out, and harm digestive function... So who's ...

Somewhere along the way most of us bought into a false belief that is holding us back from achieving greater things in our life... We've been brainwashed into thinking that "changing," or becoming more than what we were brought up in, is somehow bad or disrespectful to our current friends, family or co-workers... This type of thinking forces us to set small goals and never really feel fully realized or alive. It's also this mentality that leaves us with a life-time of regret of what might have b...

It's already Friday and that means the #FridayReview is here where I'll be talking about the best wellness, weight loss & anti-aging picks of the week! The first product I'll be reviewing is a stool test that looks for parasite, bacterial, and yeast overgrowth or infections.

I know that the vast majority of people exercise and workout because they want to stay in shape or lose some weight, but there are so many more reasons why it's important... One of the number one ways to improve coordination is by completing a certain group of movements - and becoming more well-rounded in what you actually choose to do for workouts... Many people believe that athletes or an athletic body is all genetics, but I can tell you from 20 years of working in the health & fitness ind...

Approximately 1 our of 3 Americans has a parasite. And worldwide, the number may be much higher, since a half a BILLION people alone have hookworms living inside them... These parasites can be picked up almost anywhere - local restaurants, salad bars, house pets, farms, under cooked food, contaminated drinking water, walking barefoot, etc... And, unless you're using a anti-parasite protocol 1-2x a year, or testing for parasites, you may not ever know you have them... Tune into today's #CabralCon...

The Western philosophy and mentality drives us to keep pushing forward even when things don't seem to be going our way... This can lead to stress, frustration, and feelings of being overwhelmed... When you find yourself feeling "stuck" like this, the only solution is to temporarily slow down, step back and assess where you're at and what's important to you...
