The Cabral Concept

You don't have to wait until January to make meaningful progress toward your goals. As the holidays approach, it can be easy to put your plans on hold and promise yourself you'll start fresh in the new year. But the final months of the year offer an opportunity to build momentum now. On today's show, I'm sharing how to use the "12-week year" approach to choose one meaningful priority and finish the year with intention. I'll walk you through how to clarify what you want and why it matters, turn your goal into manageable daily actions, and track your progress along the way. I'll also share why protecting time for your priorities and moving forward after setbacks can help you follow through. So join me on today's Cabral Concept 3909 to explore how small, consistent steps can help you finish the year stronger and enter January with confidence in what you can accomplish.

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! Check out today's questions: Kara: I am currently on the 21 day Liver detox. It is going great and I REALLY do feel much better. I recently saw a pulmonologist for raised ACE level. "Most likely granulomatous disease in the setting of prior fungal exposure" per doctor regarding the granulomas on my lungs/thyroid, not sarcoidosis. I am not certain, but have a very strong guess of when I was exposed to this fungus (almost 15 years ago). I currently have a diagnosis of Urticarial Vasculitis and Hemicranial Continua , among several other more common things. I am being treated for both of those from my specialists with Hydroxychloroquine and Indomethacin. My symptoms are well managed. My question for you is - Am I able to shrink or diminish these granulomas so that my body is not always on high alert /other diagnosis diminish? Tanika: Hello, thank you for this opportunity to submit questions to you. Could you explain what it means when someone experiences a persistent flashing light in their left eye for over a decade? I have been to an ophthalmologist numerous times and they always say nothing is wrong. Vanessa: I am becoming a coach through your institute!! What are all the supplements you take in a day? What are all the supplements that will enhance my memory and processing speed? (Thinking about going back to college after 3-4 years and want to get my doctorate in naturopathy, taking methelyne blue, lions mane, and creatine already) My hair is falling out. Read a study that antihistamine pills crushed up and applied topically to hair can help regrow it. (I am against them bc they 'cause dimensia' so, should I even do this?) I have bad MCas and histamine issues currently. I take dao enzyme And lastly, my friends dad has lymphoma has had chemo and starting CarT therapy. Should he come to you instead? Is this treatment good? How can he heal? Thank you so much you are my inspiration. Karriann: I'm very interested in red light therapy but how do we really know if the light is really working? Do you recommend any lights to use at home? I've read that they can also help with weight loss. Ellie: Hi Dr. Cabral, I listen to your podcast every morning! I love it! Its part of my morning routine and I have learned so much. Thank you for everything you do! I have two questions for you. #1 When you travel, do you use hydrogen tablets or hydrogen bottles or, do you just not drink hydrogen water when away. #2 What are your thoughts on structured water?

One of the simplest nutrients in your daily routine may also play an important role in supporting your long-term health. Emerging research is revealing potential connections between certain nutrients, healthy aging, immune function, inflammation, and cancer risk. But the benefits may depend on more than simply taking a supplement. On today's show, I'm breaking down new research exploring one foundational nutrient and its potential role in reducing cancer risk, including findings related to advanced cancer and breast cancer. I'll also explain why maintaining a healthy body weight may influence these outcomes, how this nutrient may support the body's natural defenses, and why testing your levels may be more valuable than simply guessing how much you need. So join me on today's Cabral Concept 3905 to explore the research behind this important nutrient, what may influence its effectiveness, and how it could fit into your approach to long-term health.

Could you be getting enough hours of sleep, but still not getting the restorative sleep your body needs? Sleep apnea affects millions of people and can interfere with oxygen levels, sleep quality, energy, and overall health. While loud snoring is one of the most recognized signs, there are several other symptoms and contributing factors worth paying attention to. On today's show, I'm breaking down what happens in the body during sleep apnea, the different types, and some of the warning signs that may indicate it's time to take a closer look at your sleep. I'll also explore some of the lifestyle and physical factors that can contribute to sleep apnea, along with practical strategies that may help improve sleep quality and reduce symptoms. So join me on today's Cabral Concept 3903 to better understand sleep apnea, what may be contributing to it, and the steps you can take to support deeper, more restorative sleep.

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… Nikki: Hi! Can you please help me in deciding if I should use the pork liver DAO enzyme or the pea version? I need to run the Big5 but waiting on funds. I have been dealing with histamine intolerance(random hives when lifting heavy objects or tight things on my skin, random itchy hands and feet) and have recently stopped taking metformin after 10 years. I learned through you that it can negatively impact histamine. I was taking it for PCOS but switched to Berberine and Inestitol. Also changing my diet. Doing more exercise. All that to say I would like to try and fix the histamine issues as much as I can until I can run these labs. Side note I believe it is gut related as I also deal with gastritis and recently stopped taking Protonics. No more medications other than Zyrtec for the itching! Susanne: Some studies suggest that omega 3 supplements have negative effects. A recent longitudinal analysis using data from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative was published in eBioMedicine. It associated omega-3 supplementation with accelerated cognitive decline in older adults. There are also some studies noting increased risk of AFib and findings that the supplements don't have the cardiovascular protective benefits once thought. Can you please provide some insight of this? I always thought.the omega 3 supplements were beneficial. Now concerned about potential harm. Thank you for all you do! Marlyse: I would like to know your thoughts on CO2 inhalation therapy. Thank you. Tricia: Good morning, Dr Cabral - hope you and your family are well. I have a quick question regarding melatonin. I know there are amazing benefits to taking melatonin every evening. I heard a study was recently done by the American Heart Association and they said taking melatonin every evening created a 90% risk of heart failure in just one year. I wanted to get your opinion on this and should someone that is at high risk of heart disease not take melatonin? Thank you in advance. Layla: Hi Dr Cabral, I have learned so much from your podcast and love the equilife supplements. I know that omegas should be taken with a fat. I have been wondering about the order. Should I eat the food containing fat first and then take the supplement, at the same time, or does it not matter? Thank you!

Protein is one of the most important nutrients to consider when you're working toward fat loss and body transformation. But simply adding more protein to your diet doesn't automatically mean you'll lose more body fat. The right amount, timing, and overall balance can make a big difference in your results. On today's show, I'm breaking down the "protein paradox" and why increasing protein can sometimes make it easier to eat less, stay fuller, and preserve lean muscle while losing body fat. I'll share why protein can play such an important role in fat loss, how to approach it strategically, and what to consider when building a sustainable plan for your goals. So join me on today's Cabral Concept 3897 to learn how to use protein strategically for fat loss and body transformation without making your diet unnecessarily restrictive. - - - For Everything Mentioned In Today's Show: StephenCabral.com/3897 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?

What if your future could look completely different from your life today? It's easy to keep planning for the future based on the life you're already living, even when parts of it no longer feel fulfilling or aligned with what you truly want. On today's show, I'm breaking down the Odyssey Plan, a simple exercise designed to help you step outside your current circumstances, challenge your assumptions, and imagine new possibilities for your personal and professional life. I'll walk you through a powerful thought exercise that can help you gain clarity, uncover what truly matters to you, and see your future from a different perspective.

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! Check out today's questions: Susie: My son is level 1 ASD. He is very high functioning and attends mainstream school. His main issue is his rigid thinking which leads to mis-reading situations and this has a great impact on him socially. He is liked by his peers but is socially excluded and as a 16 year old boy this is tough. We have done years of therapy but are in the same boat regarding this issue…do you have any advice/protocols that may help him if this is a gut/brain issue that effects any potential thoughts or behaviour? He does well academically, is loved and respected by teachers and has recently been elected by his peers and teachers to be a prefect. This situation is very confusing for us as the lack of real friends and social interactions doesn't make sense to us. Please help if you can Andie: Hi Stephen, I just wanted to thank you for the incredible podcast and everything you continue to share. I've learned so much from you over the years. I'm hoping you might have some insight on a health issue I'm trying to figure out. My hs-CRP recently came back at 46.7 mg/L, after previously being 6.4 mg/L and 0.2 mg/L before that. I follow a very clean, whole-food diet and take your foundational supplements, including Omega-3, DNS, and Vitamin D3 + K2. I've also completed the CBO and Heavy Metals programs. I do have Type 1 diabetes, although my A1C is around 5.1%. Do you have any recommendations for what I should investigate or consider to identify the cause of such a high CRP? Thank you again for all the work you do! Willow: Hello Dr. Cabral! I just recently discovered your podcast and was listening to an episode where you cover the topic of sea moss. I was inclined to begin taking it before, but after you mentioned there being plenty of other more beneficial products to take, I reconsidered. I'm curious what your top 10 recommended products would be to start taking? I am young teenager and am wanting to prioritize my overall health. Thank you so much for your time and attention! Missy: What is your take on high oxalate foods? I feel they affect may people and should be avoided however your smoothies and food plans suggest many of those foods Hope you talk about this Bob: In one of your YouTube videos you stated that Nattokinase doesn't help everyone and you would tell who it doesn't help and why, but I missed what you said about who it doesn't help and why?

How fit do you really need to be to support a longer, healthier life? New research is bringing more attention to the connection between physical fitness and longevity, and there's more to this relationship than body weight or how much you can lift. On today's show, I'm breaking down what the latest research can tell us about fitness, aging, and long-term health. I'll also share why cardiovascular fitness deserves attention, how everyday movement can play a role, and what you can do to build a stronger foundation for longevity without needing to train like an elite athlete.

Hair loss can be frustrating, especially when many of the current approaches focus on managing the problem rather than addressing what may be happening at the follicle level. New research is exploring some fascinating possibilities for supporting hair regrowth by looking at the biology of the hair follicle in a different way. On today's show, I'm breaking down a recent study that generated some surprising results and sharing what researchers are discovering about the mechanisms that may influence hair growth. I'll also explain why the findings are promising but still very early, what needs to happen before these approaches can be tested more extensively, and why I believe we may see significant advances in hair-loss treatments over the coming years. So join me on today's Cabral Concept 3889 as we take a closer look at some of the most exciting new research into hair loss and the future of hair regrowth. - - - For Everything Mentioned In Today's Show: StephenCabral.com/3889 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?

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… Anonymous: I was wondering what the minimum amount of gluten and minimum amount of days is to eat before taking a celiac test. I heard only 2 weeks instead of 6 will work. I get bad brain fog so can't take the test if it's 6 weeks. Thank you! S: Hi Dr. Cabral. I recently learned about Safe Catch Tuna. I know normally it is important to limit tuna consumption due to mercury accumulating in the fish. I'm just wondering if this brand truly makes it any safer to consume tuna a bit more often? They have different varieties of tuna such as albacore and skipjack if the type of tuna matters (If it does could you clarify why?). Holly: Hi Dr. C, the past 6 months ive begun struggling with massive fatigue that hits about 3pm. I complete the seasonal detox, ive done CBO and eat well (including rarely any sugar)… ive changed nothing (apart from starting the gym, lifting weights). I'm 42 and have tried tracking my symptoms to my cycle- and I mostly get fatigued in the first week-2 after my period and a day or 2 before. I'm 42, have an autoimmune condition (alopecia areata that I had rebalanced /regrown but developed another patch a few months ago). Is this perimenopause? What can I do to rebalance my hormones naturally? Note I'm not currently in a financial postion to do any functional testing. Thank you Susan: Hi Dr Cabral, I'm new to the community and appreciate all that you do. I'm a whole food plant-based eater and eat mostly organic food when possible. Recently I experienced bouts of diarrhea for about 2 weeks before showing improvement over the next two weeks. I didn't want to take over the counter medicine, so I let it run its course. I had no other symptoms. What could I have done to treat this? Thanks for your help. Erin: I have had 2 c-sections and 2 years ago had a hernia repair and abdominal repair at the same time. For about a year now i have had an area below the diaphragm that is so tight and bloats most of the time. I went to a myofascial specialist and she said that area is full of scar tissue from the repair (it was the start of the abdominal repair in that area) and it was holding so much water. She said the way my c-sections were done it blocked my lymphatic drainage. So i will be doing some weekly work with her but what else can I do to breakdown all that tissue. I am so miserable so often from it. Thank you for your help.
