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…

Nishan: It is extremely rare to find a genuine healer in this day and age. I am still trying to filter through the massive amounts of lies and deception regarding the prostate. Our food and water supply is saturated with chemicals and hormone disruptors. What can I take that will neutralize and eliminate all the crap in my body and rebalance my hormones ? Is there something that will shrink the prostate and crush the multi million dollar industry that's making money off of this illness that is plaguing men ?

Anonymous: I have listened to all your podcasts on both allergies and EBV/viruses. I am in the recovery phase from getting EBV in Dec 2023 (27 yo F, had 104+°F fever for 14+ days). I follow all your protocols and have been trying best to support my recovery. However, the allergens here have been hitting me very severely since getting EBV and causing alot of inflammation. I want to try sublingual allergy drops but want to know your advice for when it would be best to start them in relation to my recovery? Could I start them now, or would it be too much for my immune system to handle? If not, what would be a good indication from my body for when I might be ready to start them? I deeply appreciate all you do for this community

Anonymous: Good morning! Could you please do a podcast going over the differences between cryotherapy vs cold plunges and the unique benefits of each (and who each method might benefit or contraindications)? For example, I notice that cryo makes me feel very relaxed during and afterwards and helps alot with my stress and inflammation - however, cold plunges are a huge stressor on my nervous system and make my stress hormones increase (which I don't feel from cryo). Even though they are both cold therapies, there appear to be differences in how they affect the body, since one provides me benefit whereas the other does not (for me personally). Could you please explain this?

Kimberly: Hello Dr. Cabral, Am I allowed to include black, green and greek olives in my first 21 days? (minus the first 2 liquid diet days of each week) of course. I look forward to beginning my 21 day detox this coming Monday. Thank you, Kimberly

Tin: I am 15 weeks pregnant and I am taking my time to learn more about prenatal and maternity health. I’m curious what are your thoughts about Oral Glucose Tolerance Test? It usually contains 75g of sugar in the solution and taken after fasting. I’m a bit concerned about this much sugar plus the colorings added to that. My OB said this is required to test for gestational diabetes but heard that test can come out false and inaccurate. My FBS and HbA1c are all good, I take supplements and workout, so I think I have low risk. What are other alternatives for this that has less risk to my body? Thank you again for all that you do.

Senna: Hi doctor Cabral, I live in Europe and the European Unition has new rules for retinol usage. They have set a maximum concentration of 0.3% for facial products and 0.05% for body products, in order to mitigate potential health risks associated with excessive retinol exposure. Do you know why they did this, and what these health risks are. I love using my 1% retinol serum and am pretty alarmed by this. Thanks so much for your answer!

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!
