315: PMS Weight Gain, Pregnancy Immunity, Prilosec Weaning, Acne Causes (HouseCall) Dec 17, 2016

Show notes

Can you believe it's already the weekend? That can mean only one thing... We're back answering all of our community's questions on all things health, wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging!

Here are today's questions:

Jill S: Is it okay for me to do the detox (Dr. Cabral Detox) while I have my period. Also, is it normal not to lose as much weight the week before my period? Thanks!

Morghan: Thank you for sharing so much information via your podcast! Quick question in regard to episode #300, would you recommend the same immunity protocol during pregnancy? It's so hard getting accurate information on holistic treatments during pregnancy. Thank you for your help

Jasmine: what protocal should I start for for parents aged 68 and 73 years old. They have been on Omeprazole for decades. I need to convince them into dietary changes and if possible I would like you to suggest what supllements I should order from your for them. Both of them have had their gall bladder removed years ago, but have not been concerned about any changes of diet. Thank you!

Justine: Hi! My friend got me hooked on your podcasts and I love them! I struggle with mild acne, but to me, it's severe. Every time I get a pimple it leaves a mark, even if I don't try to pop it. It looks like I have chicken pox! I live a healthy lifestyle. Weight train/do cardio 6 days a week, maintain a healthy diet but definitely have my cheat days. I swear no matter what I've taken (birth control, spironolactone) or skin treatment I've done nothing fully works. My acne never fully goes away and I'm at the point where I'm so self consious I don't want to go out. I'm headed down the acutane path... Not what I want to do but I feel as though I'm at a loss and just want results. Please help! What do you suggest? How can I get healthy, glowing, no mark skin without taking an intense drug? Thank you in advance and sorry this was so long!

Thank you for listening and be sure to check back tomorrow where I answer 3 more of our community questions!

309: Inversion Tables, Inflamed Chest, Stiff Neck Pain, Healthy Restaurant Chains (HouseCall) Dec 11, 2016

Show notes

We're back with Day 2 of the Cabral HouseCall shows and I'm looking forward to tackling a brand new group of your questions!

Now let's get into the community questions for the day:

Michelle: Hi Dr. Cabral. I was wondering what your thoughts on inversion tables are? I do not have back problems but have been thinking about getting one to use more like getting massages---it's just a healthy thing to do. I would love to know your opinion. If you have talked about this already then please just point me to that episode. Thanks again, Michelle

Britney: I had chest pain and was told that I have costochondritis. How you you get costochondritis, what are natural ways to get rid of it, and how can I prevent a flare up of chest pain? Does dairy make costochondritis worse because it causes inflammation? Which upper body exercises are safe to do that will not make my chest hurt or make costochondritis worse? Thank you!! Britney

Jessi: Helo! I have constant neck pain, and seem to tweak my neck very easily. the stiff neck and pain last for about 5 days... pain in between lower skull and top of shoulder. Left or fight side, always changing. I know I have poor posture, but find it so hard to really make any changes since I sit at a computer all day. Are there top stretches that can actually change your posture? Is posture why the pain occurs so easily? How long realistically would it take to change posture with stretching? thank you.

Anon: Good day Dr Cabral, i know its best to cook at home where i can control exactly what i'm eating. However, Could you recommend some healthy chain restaurants to eat at? Thank you!

I hope you enjoyed this weekend's HouseCalls and all the tips inside and out of each question!
