More than a third of Americans use complementary and alternative medicine, ranging from acupuncture to herbalism, Ayurveda to homeopathy. But despite its growing popularity, complementary and alternative medicine remains, for the most part, outside the Western medical mainstream — regarded by some as fringe, and by others as straight-up quackery. Despite that, many researchers and supporters have been trying to gain a deeper understanding of medical practices from around the world, and to incorporate them into our health care system. And that's led to more questions: Which practices work, and for what conditions? How do they work? And how do we measure and standardize treatments when they're removed from their cultural contexts? On this episode, we step outside the boundaries of Western medicine to explore those questions. We hear stories about a mysterious Vodou treatment, the struggle to bring acupuncture into the medical mainstream, and answers to Western skeptics.

Alchemy provides a unique perspective on health and disease that differs from conventional medicine. According to this philosophy, periods of sickness and health are as natural as the changing of the seasons. Alchemy views illness as an initiation. From this perspective, sickness provides you with the opportunity to heal underlying patterns and undergo transformation. One of the best forms of herbal remedies to help you with this process is spagyrics.

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: Anonymous: Hi Doc! Asking for a 36 year old male. He ran the big 5 last year. I'm not sure on the particulars of his results, but I know he has done the detox CBO. Chronic back pain, a reverse curve in his neck shown in chiropractic X-rays. Chronic high blood pressure. Healthy weight, exercises diligently, healthy whole food plant based diet, fairly decent sleep, regular corrective chiropractic care. We recently pieced together that he has systematic vein problems. Temporal Arteritis (self diagnosed), Vericose veins, hemorrhoids, and Varicocele of the scrotum. What would cause this and how can we support his venous/circulatory system? He's been dealing with the varicocele since teen years. Left temple vein pain came a couple of years ago as a result of excessive Wim Hoff breathing. Thanks so much!! Anonymous: Hi dr cabral, I wanted to ask you about your thoughts on raspberry leaf tea to reduce painful period cramps. I have painful periods and I've heard that raspberry leaf tea can help ease the pain. Do you have any studies that you can share regarding this? I'd really like to get your insight on how I can reduce period pain. Thank you. Cara: Hi Dr. Cabral, I'm an IHP2 and I have a friend who has a daughter who has suffered for over 2 years. I have not worked with them yet. However I think this case needs more expertise. She frequently gets lockjaw and it's also osteomyelitis of the jaw, jaw infection, scar tissue from two surgeries, jaw bone deterioration. She's also a bit auto immune. We've seen 4 different naturopaths, 15 different doctors, holistic and regular, mental therapists, all kinds of different western and eastern type of doctors. It's really tough because everyone really doesn't know. They are doing myofunctional + oral posture work currently. She has gone from being vibrant and happy to hurting and shy. Ana: Hi Doc! What are your thoughts on onions and garlic? I'm aware that they're not CBO approved but if someone doesn't have any candida or bacterial overgrowth or any other digestive issues, do you think they should be avoided?According to Ayurveda, onion is tamasic (makes people irritable, agitated and aggressive) in nature and garlic to be rajasic (energy-draining, disturbed sleep and drained energy) in nature. As per Ayurveda, both these ingredients produce excessive heat in the body. However, these vegetables are highly recommended in Naturopathy because raw, crushed garlic has potent therapeutic benefits and red onion for example has loads of antioxidants including quercetin. How often do you consume those foods if you don't mind me asking? Once a week or more regularly? Lindsey: Hello Dr. Cabral, I know you will have an answer to this question. I have asked 3 naturopaths, my midwife and pelvic floor therapist and none have ever done this, but I don't see why it wouldn't work. I had a c-section last October and wanted to use proteolytic enzymes to work on the scar tissue in my body. Any issues you see? Can I do it while breastfeeding? Recommended dose? Also, what would you use to strengthen (or make more elastic) the tissue in my uterus, so that I may have less issues in that area if I want to have another baby via VBAC? Thank you for your insight.

Within you is a wellspring of strength and resilience, the ability to create and enjoy abundance, and an expansive sense of inner freedom and divinity. Yet after centuries of living in patriarchal societies, many women don't realize how powerful they are or how much they've been socialized to keep their true nature hidden. My guest, Acharya Shunya, believes that all of us have the ability to break free from the shackles of patriarchy and awaken our inner power when we have the right inspiration. She'll share more during our conversation. Acharya Shunya is an internationally renowned mystic and a classically trained master of nondual Advaita, Ayurveda, and Yoga. The first female head of her 2,000-year-old Indian spiritual lineage, Acharya reinterprets and re-contextualizes ancient teachings for modern times, empowering people everywhere to lead fearless, fulfilled and enlightened lives.

Lisa is joined by Dr. Kulreet Chaudhary, MD who shares three Ayurvedic gut/mind actions that can spontaneously help improve mood this spring (including: switching your inner dialogue, herbs that help, and meditation and mantras).The science of mental health and the gut microbiome is only now emerging in modern medicine, however this connection between gut and brain has been understood for thousands of years in Ayurveda. Dr. Chaudhary shares how coordinating healing of the mind with the gut, from the ancient science of Ayurveda can help immediately reap the harvest of a happier and more fulfilled year. Also, The Wall Street Journal ran an article reporting on two new studies showing gut bacteria is linked to depression. What modern medicine is now discovering about this connection, ancient medicine has known for centuries, and Dr. Kulreet Chaudhary can share with your audience how to get your mind-gut connection in sync for the spring. Would you like to schedule an interview Dr. Kulreet Chaudhary? More details:Dr. Kulreet Chaudhary, MD, author of “The Prime” says depression isn't just a mind game, but very much a gut game too and new research is validating what ancient medicine has been focused on for centuries. Two new studies published in the journal Nature Communications found a link between several types of bacteria in the gut and depressive symptoms. Scientists are exploring whether some gut bacteria produce or consume mood-regulating chemicals, such as serotonin, or chemicals that cause inflammation in the body, which research has linked to depressive symptoms. Dr. Chaudhary is an internationally recognized expert in the ancient practice of Ayurvedic medicine (pronounced eye-yur-vayda and translated to “knowledge of life”). She says, in Ayurveda medicine, the gut and brain are one functional unit and the fastest way to shift mood is by changing diet, improving gut health and shifting your microbiome. When the gut-brain connection is disrupted—no matter what else you may add to boost your mood—you're fighting an uphill battle. Dr. Chaudhary says without addressing gut health, you can spend years searching for mental health solutions with limited or unproductive results. Dr. Chaudhary shares three Ayurvedic gut/mind actions that can spontaneously help improve mood this spring (including: switching your inner dialogue, herbs that help, and meditation and mantras).The science of mental health and the gut microbiome is only now emerging in modern medicine, however this connection between gut and brain has been understood for thousands of years in Ayurveda.

Gotu Kola or Centella Asiatica is a superior nerve tonic from Ayurveda. When I had my own health challenge with Hashimoto's, Hypothyroidism, and brain fog I took Gotu Kola for over a year and after two weeks of taking it, I couldn't believe the amazing results. Gotu Kola's effect on the nervous system is pretty outstanding. It doesn't really fit into the category of calming nervines or sedatives like Lemonbalm, Lavender, Hops, Valerian, and Poppy Seed. Its effect is more long-term and it completely renews the nerve cells on a physical level. That's why I call it a nerve tonic. We have other categories of herbs, besides nervines, to address the nervous system, for example, adaptogens like Ashwagandha and Rhodiola, circulatories like Gingko, and even the anti-inflammatory herb Turmeric can be very beneficial for conditions like ADHD, anxiety, depression, focus, and memory as many scientific studies have confirmed.

Heather Grzych interviews podcaster and psychedelic expert Zach Leary about why such a high percentage of people are turning to psychedelics today to improve their wellbeing, and the importance of using these medicines with ritual and sacredness. Zach explains why your life changes after a psychedelic experience, and why integration is so important, whether you're using LSD, psilocybin from mushrooms, MDMA, ayahuasca or other natural or synthetic medicines in the psychedelic category. They discuss how the psychedelic movements actually led to modern Americans connecting with Indian sciences like yoga, meditation and Ayurveda, despite these medicines often being frowned upon in these communities. They also delve into how technology and AI is being used to recreate famous deceased teachers like Timothy Leary, Ram Dass, Alan Watts, etc. Heather Grzych is the author of The Ayurvedic Guide to Fertility and the host of the Wisdom of the Body podcast.

Growing up in Beverly Hills in the 1980s, he came to realise that the man who often took him to school in the morning and “tossed the ball” in the backyard with him, was not only one of the instigators of the counterculture movement of the 1960s, but also “had a front row seat for some of the most important cultural movements of the late twentieth century.” This led Zach to create a path for himself that's been rich with many different incarnations ranging from digital marketing ace for Apple to futurist to psychedelic integration specialist and advocate. Zach currently hosts The MAPS podcast and has in depth knowledge of psychedelic assisted facilitation, is a trained meditation teacher, a student of bhakti yoga, an IFS enthusiast and expert in the history of psychedelic culture and its many methodologies. Zach is also a facilitator at the Evolution Retreat Center in Negril, Jamaica. Evolution Retreats is a beautiful retreat center that does legal psilocybin retreats using the most modern and effective methodologies available.
