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: Hi, dr. C I’m interested in how to brew herbal teas properly. How long for each herb, and also can they be steeped for longer or even twice or three times? Or do they keep their medicinal properties only the first time and after they are just flavouring the water? What temperatures for each herb? What about cold steeping? Anything and everything about how to properly make herbal tea to reap maximum benefits. Thank you so much, have a great week

Joanna: Hi Dr Cabral Do you recommend calcium Supplementation in pregnancy for a woman who does not consume dairy, or recommend it at all ? What are your overall thoughts with calcium in pregnancy? Many thanks Joanna

Nana: Hi Dr. Cabral, Thanks for your ongoing support. I did the CBO protocol but couldnt get through the candida month. I got extremely inflammed because i am sensitive to herbs (due to salicylate sensitivity). I tried titrating but nothing worked. Even like a sprinkle of herb gets my gut super inflammed in my gut. I instead focused on the CBO diet, probiotics, and daily multivitamin but i just feel even more sensitive to herbs lately. i am currently taking l glutamine to seal my gut and even though it helps, i think all the inflammation from when i accidentally have salicylates throws me off and makes it hard to seal my gut. So far I have tried glycine to help me detox better but it hasnt helped much. i tried the cabral detox as well but it got me super inflammed. any guidance?

Ryan: First of all, thanks for all that you do in sharing all of your years of knowledge and wisdom with all of us to help expedite our health journeys. I have two questions, first, I have a six year old daughter, she is always happy, does great in school and eats fairly well but when it comes to her sleep she tosses and turns and grinds her teeth constantly all night long, do you have any thoughts or ideas on any deficiencies or toxicities that would cause this or any other suggestions? My second question is what are your thoughts on urolithin A? I see a lot of promising claims but I was wondering if you have any experience. Where it would rank in the hierarchy of supplements? If everything else is dialed would it be worth taking? Maybe take it a month or two a year? Thanks again!

Katie: Hi Dr Cabral, Could you please give me some advice on how best to absorb fat soluble vitamins without a gallbladder. Also how can I optimise my digestion as I think I have low stomach acid and low digestive enzymes as I'm very bloated all the time. Thankyou very much.

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!
