Probiotic Link: (FLORASTOR Advanced) https://florastor.com/products/floras... These nutrient-rich liver foods aid in liver detoxification and create a vacuum effect, helping you lose weight from the midsection. To make these natural liver detox smoothies, combine the ingredients with one cup of water and one cup of ice. If you are following a strict keto diet, you may want to stick to recipes without pomegranate or papaya. If you have been doing keto for some time and feel your body can handle a small amount of these fruits—please give all of the recipes a try! Always get organic fruit when possible, and try to keep your net carbs under 50g per day. 1. Spinach and kiwi Blend 1 cup of spinach with 2 to 3 kiwis. Spinach supports healthy blood sugar and can also help remove fat from the abdomen, while kiwi has properties to protect the liver against damage. 2. Spinach and grapefruit Combine 1 cup of spinach with 1 grapefruit. Grapefruit increases your sensitivity to insulin and increases bile flow. 3. Kale and pomegranate Cruciferous vegetables like kale aid in liver detoxification and have anti-inflammatory properties. Pomegranate also decreases inflammation and prevents fat from accumulating in the liver. 4. Papaya Combine one whole chopped papaya with water and ice. Papaya is loaded with enzymes that can help digestion and decrease inflammation in the liver. 5. Celery and blueberries Combine 1 cup of chopped celery with 1 cup of blueberries. Celery Increases bile production and reduces liver inflammation. Blueberries reduce liver fat, and their polyphenols help remove excess iron from the body. 6. Cucumber and lemon Combine 1 cup of each of these ingredients. Cucumber is hydrating and has electrolytes. It increases liver detoxification and can help prevent NAFLD. Lemon can also improve liver detoxification. 7. Avocado and strawberries Combine 1 cup of each! Avocado contains glutathione, one of the most potent antioxidants, and also has reparative properties for the liver. Strawberries help increase overall liver function and metabolism and remove fat from the liver. 8. Coconut and papaya Coconut contains lauric acid, which is beneficial for the immune system. It contains MCT fat, which turns into ketones. This combination decreases inflammation and scarring on the liver. Dr. William Davis developed a recipe combining fruit juice with a friendly microbe found in Florastor. Try this beverage to support the gut and suppress diarrhea and SIBO.

Those were the first words out of Maino's mouth when he walked into the studios this morning. He was carrying a bullet blender full of some concoction. Blueberries, raspberries, chia seeds, protein powder and Tang. We all taste-tested it, and it was actually pretty good. Then Maino goes off about parking meters at the Green Bay library, which opened up the door to a whole segment on parking in the city. We return from break and the guys talk about bubble baths, cutting toenails, and ordering flowers. Then learning, but not really learning, Latin in school comes up in the conversation. More on parking meters and we wrap up the hour discussing if Lutheran church services were shorter than those in Catholic churches.

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:    Darren: Good day to you, your family and team Dr Cabral. I listened to Dr Rhonda Patrick saying Bananas, Beets, Swiss chard, collard greens have an enzyme in them called polyphenol oxidase which degrades Polyphenols in blueberries and other high polyphenol containing foods. She says it's best not to add them to smoothies with blueberries etc. Is this accurate or the drawback is not that bad?     Jenn: Hi Dr. Cabral! Ever since I was pregnant with my second baby, I get this metal taste in my mouth. It happened during the first trimester, was happening as much during the 2nd but came back in the 3rd. From what I've researched it based on hormonal changes. But 7 months postpartum I'm still experiencing the metal taste every day - typically at night. I thought this goes away after giving birth. I'm so curious as to why this continues to happen and what I can do about it. Thank you so much!!     Vanessa: I have had recurring yeast infections for a year. I have taken a gut test where I collected stool for three days then did the micribiome labs gut support package for six months and cut out most sugar (only in coffee) and went mostly keto/carnivore. Last antibiotic taken three years ago after a surgery. It went well for about four months. Now it's back in my vagina and I get it on two fingers. I have a lot of stress due to a divorce and job (nurse). Please help with a protocol to rid this yeast once and all from my body. Thank you for your time     Carol: Hi dr. Cabral. I have something called Hoffa's syndrome in my knees. I was wondering if you had a natural approach to this, my insurance will cover steroid shots, but do not want to go that route. Or liposuction. Thanks for any advice. I appreciate all you do.     Teresa: Hi Dr Cabral, can you please talk about hashitoxicosis. I have Hashimotos and my latest thyroid tests showed that my TPOab was really high and my other thyroid levels were hyperactive.      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/3207 - - - 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?
