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: Michael: Hi Dr. Cabral! Thank you for the great work that you do! I'm hoping you can speak to the risk and benefits of regular blood and plasma donations. At what iron levels would you likely recommend someone give blood, if at all? Also, what is the difference between a plasma donation and plasmapheresis? Can you get similar benefits from regular plasma donations as you can from plasmapheresis? Thank you! Anonymous: Hi Dr Cabral, In my teenage years, I was quite often prescribed anitbiotics to combat cystic acne. I was mostly prescribed tetracycline, and a few others that I cant remember. I was on them for quite a while as I just did not respond well to acutane. Im a male and 40 years old now and I do have quite a bit of gi issues. My first GI doctor diagnosed me with dispepsia, though I wasnt tested for that so i dont know how he arrived at that conclusion. My 2nd GI Dr. ran a stool test that came back normal. Is it possible for such antibiotic during teenage years to lead to GI issues? I know nothing is certain without testing but just curious if its even a possibility considering it was so long ago and Ive largely avoided them since my 20's. Thanks Elizabeth: Hi, Dr. Cabral. On a previous show, you mentioned a red light therapy device and that devices get better every couple of years. I noticed the one on your resource pages is at least a couple years old, so I'm not sure it's still as effective as some of the newer ones. When looking for red light therapy caps for hair growth, what numbers (levels) and how many red lights should be the minimum in a red light therapy cap? Some can get quite pricey and I'm looking for something that is cost effective. Thank you so much! I look forward to hearing back! Marie-Eve: Hi Dr. Cabral, I am an IHP level 1 and soon 2 student. I have been using the X39 patch for the past 3 months and very much respect your knowledge about all things health. You have experienced, seen, read, done so many things in the health and wellness World and I take your opinion very seriously. You have mentioned a few times in your podcast that you have not seen any clinical studies about X39 and wanted to share these 2 with you. I was pleased to know about an affordable way to activate stem cells and copper peptides but I don't understand the deeper langage when it comes to researchers sometimes. I agree that blind testing is not enough and we need actual clinical studies to prove its benefits. I would love to hear your thoughts on those researches I found through my portal. Ian: Hi Dr. Cabral, I hope this message finds you well. One of my favorite basketball players, Victor Wembanyama (Wemby), was diagnosed with a deep vein thrombosis in his right shoulder, which is his shooting shoulder. He's 7 feet, 4 inches and 21 years old. From my perspective, it's very likely that taller people develop cardiovascular issues, and health issues in general, more often than shorter individuals... but Wemby is quite young and perhaps we might not expect cardiovascular issues at this age. I'd like to break down what may lead to blood clotting, especially in tall humans. What might the body be responding to with aggregations of blood in its attempt to reach its balanced state? Lastly, what modalities could be taken to mitigate blood clots in general, and athletes in particular?

This week's show brought to you by: Mushroom Breakthrough One of the most difficult things about training hard in the morning is the brain fog and mental fatigue that comes when you're trying to get your work day going. I am sure all you morning runners can relate to that feeling of not being able to focus and get motivated those first few hours at work. That's why I was excited when BIOptimizers released its one-of-a-kind product called Mushroom Breakthrough It's a powdered blend of 5 potent superfoods including 1.2 pounds of concentrated mushrooms, which have been shown in research to enhance memory, focus, processing speed, and more. It's the perfect way to not only boost recovery post-run, but improve mental clarity in the morning without taxing your adrenal system with caffeine. You'll notice the difference in concentration, focus and mood, especially on those days when morning training really has you feeling tired and unmotivated. For an exclusive offer go to bioptimizers.com/runtothetop and use code RUN10 during checkout.

TIMELINE Improving your mitochondria is one of the easiest ways to upgrade your performance and overall health. If you didn't know, mitochondria are often called the “powerhouse” because most of the energy your muscle cells need during aerobic running is supplied by mitochondria. This is why one of the primary goals of all the runs we do is to increase the amount of new mitochondria in our cells and to increase their efficiency. But, now there's a new way to also improve your mitochondria - Mitopure from time-line nutrition. Mitopure restores mitochondrial function, so every cell in your body has the energy to do its job and keep you healthy and functioning right. In fact, clinical studies have shown that 500mg of Urolithin, one of the main ingredients in Mitopure, can significantly increase muscle strength & endurance with no other change in lifestyle. Mitopure comes in powder form to mix into your favorite smoothie or softgels to make them easy to take. Improving your mitochondria is one of the best things you can do for your health and with Mitopure from time-line nutrition, it has never been easier.

In this episode, we teach you how to use your basic blood work to understand your gut health! We'll explore key tests like the Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (CMP) and Complete Blood Count (CBC), and how markers like BUN, creatinine, and CRP can indicate issues with digestion, nutrient absorption, and inflammation. You'll learn how elevated or deficient markers may point to underlying gut dysfunctions, such as leaky gut, bacterial overgrowth, or malabsorption. We'll also discuss how to interpret blood work results in relation to chronic inflammation, immune responses, and nutrient deficiencies, as well as how blood sugar imbalances could contribute to gut health issues.

Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) tend to have more medical complications than the average kid. Among the most common challenges are gastrointestinal (GI) disorders like abdominal pain, constipation and diarrhea. Untreated GI distress in kids with ASD has been linked to many other issues, including sleep, behavioral and psychiatric disorders. Many of these same kids also have selective eating, which impacts their intake of necessary nutrients. Due to these many layers of complexity, it can be challenging to know how to help a child with ASD and GI symptoms. To understand this intricate issue, we are joined by Christine Waasdorp Hurtado, MD, who specializes in gastroenterology at Children's Hospital Colorado. She is the Southern Colorado Executive Faculty Director of the Department of Pediatrics, as well as a Professor of Pediatrics for the University of Colorado School of Medicine. Some highlights from this episode include: The most common GI issues in kids with ASD How primary care providers can best treat these kids How certain treatment outcomes can improve quality of life For more information on Children's Colorado, visit: childrenscolorado.org.

Summary Cher and Carina recap their recent half marathon race and discuss their individual experiences and achievements. Cher had a last-minute decision to participate in the race and exceeded her expectations by achieving a personal record (PR) and finishing under two hours. Carina, on the other hand, had high expectations for herself and finished in second place overall, but felt disappointed with her time. They discuss the challenges of racing, including GI issues and recovery. Despite the difficulties, they both feel motivated and excited for future races. Takeaways Participating in a race can provide valuable insights into training progress and boost confidence. Race day conditions and unforeseen variables can impact performance, but it's important to focus on personal goals and achievements. Recovery after a race, especially a half marathon, can take time and may require adjustments to training plans. Running is an individual sport, and each person's journey and progress are unique. Setting realistic expectations and celebrating personal achievements are key to maintaining motivation and enjoyment in running.

Have you gotten the diagnosis of IBS? Jenn and Hannah are here to talk about why IBS is BS, and what things you can do to overcome the IBS symptoms. Tune in to learn more about digestion and gut health. On this week's episode, Jenn is joined by health coach, Hannah Alyward. Hannah walks through what IBS is and why the common recommendation of elimination diets isn't a forever solution. She explains why people experience bloating and what the bloating you are experiencing could mean. She also talks about what is happening inside of our digestive system when we eat. Hannah shares some tips for things you can do right now to optimize digestion and the best ways to support gut health. She is a wealth of information; you do not want to miss this episode! The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, discussing wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let's dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store. IN THIS EPISODE: [3:40] Hannah shares about her life before becoming a health coach. [7:48] Why is an elimination diet not a long term solution?[12:37] What is IBS and why is it BS?[14:07] What is natural bloating vs. bloating indicating a bigger issue? [17:39] Why are people experiencing a lot of bloating and when do you need additional testing? [25:40] What are some things we can do right now to optimize healthy digestion? [29:05] How do you know where to start with healing digestive enzymes? [31:48] Why are gallbladder removals so common? [37:04] Hannah shares her final thoughts around supporting your gut health at home. KEY TAKEAWAYS: The first priority to set up success for digestion is to ensure that your nervous system is calm and chewing your food to applesauce consistency to make sure that you are breaking your food down efficiently.Elimination diets are not meant to be permanent, they should only be a temporary solution to reduce symptoms that you are having while finding and repairing the root cause. Always advocate for yourself. Ask your doctors questions. If you are not comfortable with what they are recommending, seek a second opinion. If they are not listening to you and addressing your concerns or symptoms, seek a second opinion.QUOTES: [9:59] “What's so key here that I want to repeat is that the objective of the elimination diet is that we pull things out to create a healing opportunity, so that we can then add things back in and your body doesn't react the same way it once did once there's been that healing.” - Jenn Trepeck[17:47] “If you feel like this is really impacting your life and you've already made some nutrition adjustments, which are kind of like the first line of defense that people bring into play. If we take out processed foods, minimize gluten and dairy, if you've done all that and you're still feeling this way, it's time to work with someone that is an expert in this and explore some functional testing.” - Hannah Alyward[25:52] “Before food even makes it into the gut microbiome, our body is priming for digestion essentially. So if you can spend more time with your food, smelling your food, cooking your food, enjoying your food, chewing your food, these are how we set our bodies up to properly digest our food.” - Hannah Alyward[27:40] “Take six deep belly breaths before eating each meal, helping to calm and pacify the nervous system, and chewing your food into applesauce consistency, everyone can start there and it's free and it's easy.” - Hannah Alyward[36:13] “I wish everyone would dig deeper into their gut health, even if they have no digestive symptoms, because it influences fertility and skin and energy and just everything. even hair growth. All these systems are interconnected.” - Hannah AlywardRESOURCES:Birth Control Part 1 EpisodeBirth Control Part 2 Episode The Body's Daily Detox EpisodeDebunking Detox EpisodeBecome A Member of Salad with a Side of FriesJenn's Free Menu PlanA Salad With a Side of FriesA Salad With A Side Of Fries MerchA Salad With a Side of Fries InstagramGUEST RESOURCESHannah Aylward's WebsiteFree Gut Health Root Cause QuizHannah Aylward's InstagramGood Gut Formula MasterclassGUEST BIOHannah Aylward is a Certified Holistic Health Coach, gut health specialist, and the founder of HAN, her functional nutrition practice taking a root cause approach to repairing the gut for real.

IN THIS EPISODE: ● [3:47] How did Lindsey get started with her specialty of stool and gut health? ● [5:40] Lindsey talks about the connection between gut health and the immune system/autoimmune issues.● [8:40] How do you handle bloating and what is the cause of it? ● [11:52] How do you manage chronic diarrhea or constipation? ● [13:37] What is the “perfect stool”?● [17:00] How is weight loss resistance or fat loss resistance connected to what's happening in the gut? ● [19:03] How does candida tie in to gut issues?● [22:02] What is slow motility in the small intestine and large intestine? ● [22:46] How do you know when you should add more fiber in your diet?● [25:32] When should you use probiotics? ● [28:05] How can people go about testing on their own?● [28:57] Lindsey talks about a few more items that help the gut. KEY TAKEAWAYS: ● [5:59] For an autoimmune issue to become active, generally the body has to become weakened in order for the autoimmune issue to flare up. This could be leaky gut or intestinal hyperpermeability, or a gut infection. ● [9:58] If you suspect that you have GI issues, first start with a gastroenterologist to clear any major issues such as cancer. Once that is cleared, then you test with a gastroenterologist who is educated in SIBO or find a functional medicine doctor who can run tests such as a GI Map. ● [23:47] Fruits and vegetables are the best source for fiber, but the real powerhouses diet-wise are going to be your beans, lentils and chickpeas. You're never going to get enough fiber unless you eat those foods in your diet regularly. QUOTES: “A leaky gut is allowing out these antigens, be they parts of gram negative bacteria called lipopolysaccharides, which create inflammation, or they might be partly digested food particles like gluten, which is something that really resembles your thyroid gland. So therefore, Hashimoto's thyroiditis is one of the most common autoimmune disease because the body sees that thing come out of your intestines, not digested, full protein, and thinking that doesn't belong here, attacks it, and then says what else looks like that in the body, oh well your thyroid gland, so let me attack that too.” - Lindsey Parsons “When I'm at my worst, I can look six months pregnant easily. So, bloating is very much associated with SIBO. If somebody says they're bloated and it's every day, and usually unless they're following a very strict diet that doesn't have any high FODMAP foods, then typically you're going to be looking at SIBO and that may have been diagnosed as IBS because it may then go along with diarrhea or constipation or other GI issues.” - Lindsey Parson“If you're just a generally healthy person who maybe is just a little bit constipated, you probably do need to add some more fiber to your diet. Fruits and vegetables being the best source, but really the powerhouses diet-wise are going to be your beans and your lentils and your chickpeas, those kinds of foods.” - Lindsey Parsons"If you have low stomach acid and you're not breaking apart your proteins properly then you're probably not getting enough l-carnitine...one of the two essential nutrients needed to take fatty acids and...turn them into energy." - Lindsey Parsons"Typically it starts with some sort of trigger, like a stressful period in your life or a period of antibiotics, which weakens your immune system, raises your cortisol, which raises your blood sugar and then...you see dysbiosis, too many pathogenic bacteria and not enough commensal bacteria and then you start to see overgrowths of candida...which may cause sugar cravings or carb cravings." - Lindsey Parsons"The symptoms you're experiencing are your body communicating with you...let's listen and support it because our gut health translates into our overall health." - Jenn Trepeck RESOURCES:Down and Dirty Part 1Down and Dirty Part 2Become A Member of Salad with a Side of FriesJenn's Free Menu PlanA Salad With a Side of FriesA Salad With A Side Of Fries MerchA Salad With a Side of Fries InstagramGUEST RESOURCES:High Desert Health Coach WebsiteGut Healing Facebook GroupHigh Desert Health Facebook PageHigh Desert Health Instagram PageHigh Desert Health YouTubeLindsey's SupplementsFree E-Booklet “Finding Your Root Cause Through Stool and Organic Acids Testing” Free Quiz to see Which Stool or Functional Medicine Test Will Help You Find the Root Cause of your Gut Health IssuesLindsey's Rupa Health Lab StoreBIO:Lindsey Parsons, EdD is a Certified Health Coach working out of Tucson, Arizona.

Hey girlfriend, How did your weekend end up? I'd love to hear all the stories of how your spring is starting off! I spent the weekend recording the pod for you, practicing yoga with my hubby & having a movie night snuggled up next to the boys. Yesterday was a full day at the ballpark cheering on my son's baseball team, "Go Canes Go!" (in which I'm grateful I already recorded today's show lol, because my voice needs recuperation!) But none of that is what I wanted to chat with you about today. Today, I wanted to dive right in to GUT HEALTH! So here it goes.... How is your gut? Weird question to ask right? Well, maybe not so strange after all. If you experience high levels of anxiety or stress, don't be surprised if that comes alongside gas, bloat or other gut health issues. Another fun fact... Did you know your gut is your 2nd brain? Yep! Research shows that your gut & brain are directly linked & it's actually very common if you are stressed or overwhelmed to experience GI disfunction. In Episode 138, I talk all things gastro, bloat, constipation & how you can tame those tummy troubles while navigating freedom from food controlling your life! The truth in recovery from disordered eating is that you most likely will experience stomach discomfort, but the good news is that it won't last forever. So if you are currently in the thick of it, then this one is a must listen! xo, lindsey Find All the Things -> wwww.herbestself.co ______ Coach with Me ->Client Application ______ Email me directly -> info@lindseynichol.com ______ Join the free FB community -> www.herbestselfsociety.com ______ Need a helping hand guiding you girl!?

This week's episode is all about gastro-intestinal issues and chronic illness in recovery. As most of you probably know, I suffer from chronic Lyme's disease (and did so during my recovery as well), so I know a fair bit about chronic illness and recovery. However, even if you don't have any underlying health issues, you most likely will experience some physical discomfort during your recovery. I know all too well how disheartening it can be when you're trying to treat your body well, and it still hurts/hurts worse. Or how it can feel like your eating disorder actually was healthier when symptoms flare up during recovery. BUT I also know first-hand how physical discomfort/chronic illness can be a motivation/reason to recover. If you're wanting to break free from your eating disorder, but are struggling to cope with the physical discomfort during recovery, this episode is for you! My guide just launched! Do you feel like you need more help recovering from your eating disorder? Whether you struggle with anorexia, bulimia, OSFED, or other (un)diagnosed disordered eating issues, I'm here to help! Right now, I'm not offering one-on-one coaching, but I did jut launch my DVK Recovery Method® Guide, full of examples, step-by-step instructions, templates, and a bit of science. The guide allows you to create your very own POA and apply my method yourself. Moreover, you'll get access to a Facebook support group where me and three other experienced admins will be giving support & advice as well. I'm offering it for an early-bird price until the 2nd of May, so be sure to grab yourself a copy! I will of course also go back to one-on-one coaching, so if you are interested in working with me in the future, be sure to shoot me a message!

This episode of the Female Athlete Nutrition podcast is with sports dietitian, runner, and mom of two, Meghann Featherstun. As well as helping other athletes with their fueling, Meghann is a rockstar athlete in her own right with multiple marathon finishes.

We dive deep into marathon and endurance nutrition, focusing on pre-race nutrition. Meghann gives listeners great travel nutrition tips, as well as advice for dealing with gastrointestinal (GI) issues. Meghann and I talk all about carbohydrate loading: the what, why, when, and how. We then focus on understanding your hydration needs by measuring your sweat rate, and the importance of replacing sodium losses, avoiding over- and under-hydrating. We bust some myths around sodium fears, weight gain during a carb load, and emphasize the reality that athletes likely need more carbohydrates than they think. To better understand your unique carbohydrate and hydration needs, Meghann has some amazing resources: Meghann's quick carb calculator and sweat rate/ hydration calculator.

In today's episode we are discussing poop. That's right. GI issues on the Carnivore Diet. It happens and we have to acknowledge it. I believe many, if not most people get some issue with their bowels at the start, but usually it's pretty easily resolved. Like others I had a few issues when starting on the carnivore diet, particularly with constipation, but it was pretty easily resolved by adding in more fat.Here's a bit of background about why you might get some issues, and some simple tips to try to help yourself. If these tips don't work, it might be time to see a doctor to make sure there's no other issues happening. _Welcome to The Meat Medic Podcast. I'm your host Dr Suresh Khirwadkar. I'm a GP and Lifestyle Physician and I'm a practicing carnivore.

Jacie's health took a turn for the worst in mid 2021, when she suddenly experienced a chain of terrible symptoms like plantar fasciitis, uveitis, GI issues, and was diagnosed with non-radiographic axial ankylosing spondyloarthritis, and was told it was a reactive arthritis (which means her AS was triggered by something), but turns out she actually had Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome the whole time.

This week we have a brief insight to the fact that stress can play havoc on the immune system and we hope to have a new guest soon to discuss this weighty problem. If you are a member of the health care community and would like to be a guest on our show to discuss how stress affects the immune system, please drop us a line at PodcastDX@yahoo.com. Remember chronic stress = excessive cortisol and too much cortisol = a host of medical ailments. 1. Poor sleep Cortisol levels are supposed to drop at nighttime, allowing your body to relax and recharge. But if your cortisol levels are too high, you might notice that, even if you've been tired all day, you get a second wind right around bedtime. Then you toss and turn all night – and feel tired again the next day. Over time, high levels of cortisol deplete the adrenal glands and predispose you to chronic fatigue. So if you feel like your get up and go got up and went, you're probably stressed. 3. You're gaining weight, especially around your abdomen, even when you eat well and exercise. Cortisol tends to make you thick around the middle, even when you're doing everything “right.” 4. You catch colds and other infections easily. Cortisol deactivates your body's natural self-repair mechanisms, which means that your immune system which is perfectly designed by nature to keep you healthy goes caput, leaving you vulnerable to every cootie you encounter. 5. You crave unhealthy foods. Cortisol raises your blood sugar, putting you at risk of diabetes. High glucose levels then bump up your insulin levels, which then drop your blood sugar it's a vicious cycle! 6. You experience backaches and headaches. When your cortisol levels are high over a long period of time, your adrenal glands start to get depleted. This raises prolactin levels, increasing the body's sensitivity to pain, such as backaches and muscle aches. Excessive cortisol also hypersensitizes the brain to pain, such that even the slightest twinge can excite the nerves of the brain, causing headaches. 7. Lo-Libido Consider cortisol the anti-Viagra. When stress hormones are high, libido-inducing hormones like testosterone drop. 8. GI Issues. Your gastrointestinal system is very sensitive to stress hormones like cortisol. You might experience nausea, heartburn, abdominal cramps, diarrhea, or constipation as a result of too many stress hormones. 9. Emotional Problems. Cortisol and epinephrine can lead to jitters, nervous stomach, feelings of panic, even paranoia. High levels of cortisol suppress production of serotonin, and next thing you know, you're awash in doom and gloom. Chronic High Cortisol=Adrenal Fatigue When your cortisol levels are bumped up, day after day, your adrenal glands, responsible for the production of cortisol, get worn out. Precursor hormones required for cortisol production get depleted. This could result in full blown adrenal collapse. (Credits: Dr Lissa Rankin M.D. https://binged.it/3xgOpDc )
