2931: Big Weight Loss Intermittent Fasting Mistake (WW)
Not everyone is a believer yet in incorporating intermittent fasting into their daily routine-   Some say they have tried it and had little to no success…   But I believe that the majority of people who it’s not working for may not be doing it right, which either does not provide them with the results they want or can cause unwanted and unexpected health side effects in the long term.   So today on #CabralConcept 2931, I want to go over the big weight loss intermittent fasting mistake and what you can do instead.

2930: Serious Side Effects from Antihistamines (TWT)
Many people deal with allergies, hives, skin rashes, and other conditions that could lead them to possibly using antihistamines.   While I always encourage people to explore the root causes of these histamine reactions, I recognize that on occasion, people might turn to antihistamines for relief.   However, prolonged use of these medications can lead to detrimental side effects.   So on today’s #CabralConcept 2930, I want to go over what the histamine reaction is in the body and what the serious side effects of prolonged antihistamine use are.

2928: Pancreatic IPMN Cysts, CBO & Birth Control, Banza Rice, Mouthwash Alternatives, Daily Melatonin, Melatonin & Pregnancy (HouseCall)
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…   Lisa: Hello Again Dr. Cabral, In addition to having a Mega-stomach & colon along with LIMO, which seems to reoccur, I have IPMN branch cysts on my pancreas which have not changed in the last 6 months so will be monitored annually. I am not sure if this has attributed to my conditions, but I do take a digestive enzyme along with HCL with each meal. I am not sure if I am taking enough, but I take what I can afford. My GI doctors have been stumped by my conditions, but did offer antibiotics for my LIMO, which I am considering because my insurance will cover it and I am out of money. What would you do if you had these conditions?   Anonymous: Hello! I am currently taking the pill form of birth control. I plan to come off of the birth control in about 6 months. I plan to test my hormones at that point to start rebalancing. I also would like to do the Cbo protocol due to excessive gas and bloating I’ve experienced for several years now. I am wondering if it would be a good idea to do the Cbo protocol while still on the birth control or should I wait until I have come off of it. I know the birth control can have negative affects on my gut so I don’t want to slow my gut healing by doing it while still on the birth control. thank you.   Lindsay: Hello,I loved today's episode on rice. I eat a lot of Banza. It's a chickpea rice. what are your thoughts on that? https://www.eatbanza.com/products/chickpea-rice-garlic-olive-oil   Luis: Hi Dr. Cabral, Do you have any thoughts on Monoatomic Gold? How about Colloidal Silver as a daily mouth wash? Thanks   Jessica: Hi Dr. Cabral, I’ve learned so much from you. Thank you for all you do to empower so many people! My question is on melatonin. I know you’ve done many episodes on melatonin and are generally a proponent of its usage in moderate amounts. I typically take 2-3 mg per night. But there are a lot of people in the health space who do not think taking melatonin is a good idea. I hear them usually say something about it being a hormone and not wanting to introduce external hormones to the body if you can help it. But I’ve always found their rationale to be vague. I know you’ve done so much research on melatonin. Could you articulate the “steel man” argument for why taking 1-5mg of melatonin every night may not be a good idea?   Jessica: One more question on melatonin - Would you advise someone stop taking melatonin when they become pregnant? That seems to be the conventional wisdom because there is little research on it. But, in theory, it seems like melatonin could be useful for calming the mother’s central nervous system, improving sleep, providing antioxidants, etc. — all of which would be favorable to the baby.   Thank you for tuning into this weekend’s Cabral HouseCalls and be sure to check back tomorrow for our Mindset & Motivation Monday show to get your week started off right! - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/2928 - - - 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?

2927: Date Seed Coffee, Acid Reflux & Spicy Foods, Gut Health After Surgery, Detox After Virus, Abdomen Distention (HouseCall)
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:    Lara: Hi, dr. C, hope you and your family are well.. I saw some recipes for date seed coffee.. is it healthy to grind date seeds and make “coffee” out of them? Secondly, I was checking your resources and haven’t found what you recommend for baking powder.. which are the acceptable ingredients? Which ones should we watch out for? Also, which ingredients to make a blend of gluten free flour? They usually contain xantan gum and tapioca starch or flour.. is cassava flour ok? What else? It would be so helpful if you did a list of foods and ingredients that are ok/not ok.. Thank you for being such an amazing encyclopaedia of information.. you are an amazing soul..   Samantha: Hi doctor Cabral, I love eating very spicy food, but sometimes it can leave my esophagus and throat feeling raw and irritated for days. And now I'm worried about a claim I heard that eating too much spicy food can increase the risk of stomach cancer due to the acid reflux. What are your about this? Thanks so much, I really appreciate you   Anonymous: Hi Dr. Cabral. I recently had hernia surgery where they repaired 4 hernias in my abdomen and placed a mesh panel from my sternum down to my bellybutton to prevent future hernias. I was under general anesthesia for three hours and was on pain medication including Advil for two weeks. After surgery I’m having extreme stomach and intestinal pain after I eat. It is not tied to any specific food that I eat and it does not happen at every meal. I am wondering if the Advil or other pain medication could have affected my gut and what you suggest to heal. I completed the full CBO protocol right before surgery and did not have this pain before. Any information or advice that you could provide would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.   Marica: Hi Dr Cabral, Can you please come up with a C-vid VX Detox? I am almost 100% sure that the vx is what caused my Graves disease. Thanks so much! Regards,   Lisa: Dear Dr. Cabral, Thank you for generously sharing your expertise! You have helped me immensely on my journey back from chronic fatigue & pain! I find myself at 60 years old with a "Mega-stomach" and "Mega-colon", I'm assuming from constipation that I was unaware of due to daily bowel movements. Though I weigh about 113 pounds at 5'-2" I look as if I am 6 months pregnant. This distention is not from bloat, but is a "permanent" distention. Or is it? I never feel full which is frustrating. I also have LIMO (Lower Intestinal Microbial Overgrowth) which tends to make me constipated, though I am able to manage this with supplements. I've done all of the relevant Equilife protocols and detoxes, but can't afford the CBO Protocol again. Please share what you can.   Thank you for tuning into today's Cabral HouseCall and be sure to check back tomorrow where we answer more of our community’s questions!      - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/2927 - - - 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?
