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: Trish: Hi Dr. Cabral - I'm a 55-year-old female working on lowering overall inflammation in my body. My CRP levels are (4.1), ApoB (118 nmol/L and Lipoprotein (A) (281 nmol/L) as you can see are high. Total Cholesterol 221 and Triglycerides are 70. I have a lot of stiffness with joint discomfort. I started taking 2 Proteolytic Enzymes upon waking. Then your DNS, D3/k2, Cell Boost, Inflamma Soothe, Collagen with GLP Tone System and some of your other products (eye and hair). I follow your Med diet. My pain and stiffness have improved ALOT in a matter of days. I'm going to retest my CRP and chol levels in 4 months. My question is how long can I take Proteolytic Enzymes and in your opinion am I taking the proper protocol for these issues? I'm retesting in 4 mos. Thank you in advance Sheena: Hi Dr Cabral! Hope you and all of your health family are well. I'm a surgical Processor and on my feet all day. I've tried all kinds of compression socks but by the end of the day, after taking it off, my leg are soo itchy! I scratch it sometimes so bad it starts to bleed. I'm only wearing the average 15-20 mmHG so its not too tight. I'm curious if you have a recommendation for compression socks that wont causes itching but is effective? Thanks in advance for answering! Christina: Stephen, I have listened on one of your podcasts about Rheumatoid Arthritis and detoxing. My mother is in her early 70s and her fingers are twisting. I am 48 and recently the base of my thumbs have started bothering me. My question is, what detox protocol should my mother start with to prevent further twisting of her fingers and what detox protocol should I do to prevent this from happening to me? I would love to do the heavy metals and organic acid tests, but unfortunately I live in NY. Would my functional medicine doctor be able to order them for me? I have had HELLP, HUS, DIC, Guillian Barre, and Pulminary Edema in my pregnancy at 21. My son was delivered with no issues! At this time, we learned that I have ITTP. I have had IBS issues. Thank you, Christina Ryan: Hi dr cabral, Im a 29 year old male who has addisons disease, chronic post nasal drip, food intolerance's and teeth grinding a stool test confirmed klebsiella pneumonie overgrowth and blastocystis hominis as well as some yeast and fungus with no Bifidobacteria and Lactobacillus detected, I recently started the cbo protocol with citricidal drops im 7 days in untill i came across one of your videos where you mentioned you should go for the parasite first should i stop the cbo protocol and start the para support protocol and then continue the cbo after or just continue the cbo protocol Thank you for your time wishing you all the best ryan. Kay: Hi Dr. Cabral, I I love your podcasts and look forward to them every week. Anyway, I was wondering if you could please explain how a traumatic event could spur the onset of a "dis-ease" such as asthma. My daughter's asthma began shortly after her father and I were separated and he moved out of state. According to her pediatrician at the time, she was "more prone to having asthma because she also had eczema." This was 2 decades ago, and now she's 31 and we know more about autoimmune issues. Although she continues to carry an inhaler with her, she hardly needs to use it anymore. What would you recommend for a more root cause approach to someone with her condition? Thank you.

And this correlates with dementia in particular.” “I think what has been a deep truth of mine for quite some time is that brain inflammation or inflammation in general can have an impact on cognitive function… and this is an everybody problem.

Nutritionist Leyla Muedin discusses the recently released 2025 report on the best overall diets. She critiques the methodology behind nutritional research, emphasizing issues such as recall bias and the reliability of food frequency questionnaires. Leyla then provides an in-depth review of the top ten diets listed in the report: Mediterranean, DASH, Flexitarian, MIND, Mayo Clinic, TLC, Menopause, Dr. Andrew Weil's Anti-inflammatory, Volumetrics, and Cleveland Clinic diets. She argues that many of these diets are misrepresented, particularly regarding their fat content and sustainability claims. Leyla also offers her insights on what constitutes a truly effective and sustainable diet.
There's a reason more and more people are turning to intermittent fasting as a reset button for the body. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. David Jockers to unpack what might be the most underrated survival mechanism built into our cells: autophagy. It's a cleanup crew that breaks down damaged mitochondria, clears out zombie cells, and even resets your gut microbiome. If your energy crashes midday, if your cravings hit hard at night, or your body feels inflamed and sluggish no matter what you eat, there's a good chance your cells aren't getting the cleanup time they desperately need. And that starts with insulin staying too high, too often. We talk about how to train your body to burn fat effortlessly, how long it takes to start getting results from fasting, and why most people are unknowingly blocking this cellular self-repair system. Dr. Jockers also shares how to make fasting easier and safer, especially if you've struggled with low energy or headaches. He also explains why you should consider binders during a fast, how to recognize when your mitochondria are stressed out, and the brain-boosting effects of ketones once you hit day three of a longer fast. "Just like we talk about a vitamin D deficiency or a zinc deficiency, autophagy is like an essential nutrient. You have to go through it to be healthy." ~ Dr. David Jockers In This Episode: - What is autophagy, and why is it essential? - How to start fasting - Tips for longer fasts and what to include - How ketones reduce inflammation and boost brain health - Are ketone supplements worth it? - Juice and bone broth fasting - Using binders and other protocols to manage detox symptoms during a fast - Fasting's impact on gut microbiome diversity - The link between fasting, clearing of "zombie cells," and longevity Products & Resources Mentioned: Conquering Chronic Inflammation Summit 2.0: Learn more here https://drtalks.com/summit/conquering-inflammation/ Bon Charge Red Light Face Mask: Use code WENDY to get 15% off at https://boncharge.com Fresh-Pressed Olive Oil: Try a full-size $39 bottle for just $1 to cover shipping at https://getfreshwendy.com Heavy Metals Quiz: Start at https://heavymetalsquiz.com About Dr. David Jockers: Dr. David Jockers is a doctor of natural medicine and a world-renowned expert in metabolic health, fasting, and functional nutrition.

The Silent Killer of the Mind: What You Don't Know About Alzheimer's Could Be Hurting You Already What if the path to Alzheimer's doesn't begin in your 70s—but is already unfolding in your 30s, 40s, or even earlier? In this powerful conversation with Dr. Robert Love, we expose one of the most misunderstood, underestimated health threats of our generation—Alzheimer's disease—and what you can do today to not only prevent it, but potentially reverse its early effects. I've had some of the best minds on this show, but Dr. Love stands out. He's not just brilliant—he's a world-class communicator on a mission to bring hope, tools, and clarity to one of the scariest topics out there: losing your mind. Dr. Love pulls back the curtain on the real causes of Alzheimer's—and it's not just genetics. It's inflammation. It's sugar. It's chronic stress. It's poor sleep. He explains how our modern lifestyle is sabotaging our brain health decades before symptoms appear. And here's what hit me hard: your inflammation levels at age 40 are one of the strongest predictors of your Alzheimer's risk at 70. That's not fear—that's a wake-up call. But the best part? We're not powerless. From simple lifestyle shifts to breakthrough supplements like lion's mane and curcumin, Dr. Love shows us the map to protecting the most vital organ we've got—our brain. We also dive into cutting-edge science that isn't just about prevention—it's about reversal. Dr. Love shares promising new treatments and even clinical results from his medical clinic where Alzheimer's symptoms have improved or stabilized through non-drug protocols. He gives us a first-hand account of a patient who went from disoriented and forgetful to alert, clear, and sharp—all within six months. I'm telling you, this isn't science fiction. This is the new frontier of brain health. Beyond the data and science, what really resonated with me was this: so much of what protects the brain is also what builds a better life—quality sleep, exercise, meaningful learning, low stress, good food, and strong relationships. Dr. Love reminds us that joy, curiosity, and purpose aren't just nice-to-haves—they're biological armor for your brain. And if you're young and thinking this episode doesn't apply to you? Think again. The decisions you make today will echo into the quality of your future decades. Key Takeaways: Alzheimer's starts decades before symptoms appear—your 40s matter Inflammation is one of the biggest risk factors for cognitive decline Sleep, gut health, stress, and sugar all have massive impacts on brain aging Supplements like lion's mane, curcumin, and NMN can support neurogenesis Alzheimer's symptoms can be improved or reversed with lifestyle interventions Your lifestyle is not just shaping your body—it's shaping your brain This one is a must-listen. Share it with someone you love. This information can change lives. — Max Out

If you've been trying to lose fat but aren't seeing the results you expected, it might be more about your hormones and gut health than just counting calories. This covers why insulin plays a major role in fat storage, how inflammation affects your progress, and why looking at the glycemic index of your food can make a big difference.It also highlights the importance of cutting out processed foods, supporting gut health, and building muscle along the way. When your body's working the way it should, fat loss becomes more natural and it's not just about the number on the scale.

Is Your Inflammation Network Keeping You Stuck in Migraine Pain? Did you know your body has an inflammation network—a built-in security system designed to protect you, but for many women with migraines, it's stuck in overdrive? In this powerful episode, I'm breaking down a lesser-known (but crucial) piece of the chronic pain puzzle: the inflammation network. This internal system should act like a rapid-response team, jumping in when needed and backing off when the threat is gone. But for many women—especially those dealing with migraines—it's stuck in the “on” position, fueling daily discomfort, gut issues, hormonal chaos, and relentless head pain. This episode is your roadmap to understanding what's really happening underneath the symptoms—and how we start resetting that overactive system from the inside out. In this episode, you'll learn: What the inflammation network is—and why it matters more than you think Why gut issues, joint pain, brain fog, and migraines may all be connected How chronic stress and electrolyte imbalances over-activate your sensors What “inflammatory mediators” are (and how Type A women can amplify them) Why your poop, pain, and hormone health are speaking the same language How the 6 Keys of the Migraine Freedom™ Protocol help reboot your system What it actually looks like when your body's “alarm” finally shuts off If you've ever said, “I've tried everything and nothing works,” this episode will help you understand why—and where to go next.
If you've been avoiding medicinal mushrooms because you're worried about immune stimulation, this conversation will change your mind. I talk with naturopathic doctor and mushroom expert Dr. Anna Sitkoff about how most medicinal mushrooms actually promote immune balance and tolerance.Anna explains how mushrooms support autoimmune healing on multiple levels: feeding beneficial gut bacteria, reducing pathogen load, and calming the nervous system. She shares which mushrooms work best for specific conditions, quality markers to look for when shopping, and why reishi is called the "mushroom of immortality."This episode opened my eyes to how these powerful healing allies can support our bodies naturally without overstimulating our already reactive immune systems.For the complete show notes and links visit inspiredliving.show/202

As it turns out, aging isn't just about wrinkles and gray hair. It's about your immune system silently giving out years in advance. If you're dealing with chronic stress, sleep issues, inflammation, hormone shifts, or just feel like your body is aging faster than it should, there's a test that might explain exactly why—and how to turn it around. I sat down with Nikolina Lauc, CEO of GlycanAge, to unpack the science of glycans—those powerful, complex sugars that serve as early warning signals for disease and inflammation, even a decade before symptoms show up. Nikolina shares how glycans can predict things like hypertension and rheumatoid arthritis years before they happen, how menopause accelerates aging by 10+ years, why stress adds 15 years to your biological clock, and how hormone replacement, moderate exercise, and even switching from HIIT to yoga can roll your biological age backward. This is the kind of info that gives you back control of your health. “We can predict hypertension six years ahead of time with 98% accuracy. We can predict rheumatoid arthritis 10 years ahead of time with 92% accuracy.” ~ Nikolina Lauc In This Episode: - Backstory: What are glycans, and why should you measure them? - Research and predictive power of GlycanAge - What to expect from a GlycanAge test - Top factors that improve your biological age - The effects of stress on your biological clock - Exercise and its effects on aging - Key aging differences between men and women - Things to do if your biological age is high - How to get the GlycanAge test Products & Resources Mentioned: GlycanAge Biological Age Test: You can get it from https://glycanage.com Puori PW1 Protein: Get 20% off with code WENDY at https://puori.com/wendy Fresh-Pressed Olive Oil: Try a full-size $39 bottle for just $1 to cover shipping at https://getfreshwendy.com Heavy Metals Quiz: Start at https://heavymetalsquiz.com About Nikolina Lauc Nikolina Lauc is the co-founder and CEO of GlycanAge and has helped pioneer a revolutionary way to measure biological aging through glycans—complex carbohydrates that change with immune system wear and tear. Her father, a renowned glyco-biologist and the second most published scientist in the field, developed one of the first biomarkers of molecular aging. GlycanAge has since analyzed over 200,000 samples—more than 85% of all human glycan data globally. Nikolina is on a mission to make early detection and personalized prevention mainstream.

Subscribe to Thyrolove and Save 15%https://thyrolove.com/In this powerful episode, Inna is joined by transformational leader and inner child expert Anat Peri to explore an unexpected twist in the Hashimoto's healing journey. Together, they dive into the case of Jessica, who was doing all the “right” things, following the AIP diet, taking supplements, working on her mindset, but still felt exhausted and stuck. Her symptoms weren't improving, and her doctor's solution was to increase her medication yet again.The turning point came when she uncovered something deeper. Jessica was trying so hard to stay positive, think positive, do her affirmations because that is what she was told she should be doing. However by doing that, she was unintentionally overriding her true emotions and it made her feel way worse.Anat explains how this kind of forced positivity can be a detriment because it can actually create stress in the nervous system, keeping the body in a chronic state of fight, flight, or freeze. This episode unpacks how overriding your feelings can actually worsen autoimmune symptoms and why true healing starts with emotional safety.Anat also shares the science behind how the nervous system reacts faster than the conscious mind, how inner child work helps create safety, and why nervous system regulation must come before mindset work can truly be effective. From breathwork to sensation naming to reparenting tools, you'll learn how to create space for your emotions and support your healing from the inside out.This episode is an essential listen for anyone who has tried it all and still feels like something is missing. It might not be about doing more. It might be about feeling more.For full show notes, please see:https://innatopiler.com/podcasts/positive-thinking-hashimotos-anat-peri/Get ThyroLove - the first all in one bottle multi-nutrient comprehensive formula designed specifically for those with Hashimoto's at ThyroLove.com - use code “Podcast” to get 10% off and free shipping For more information about everything Hashimoto's please visit InnaTopiler.comIf you are struggling to lose weight with Hashimoto's, Inna has a 10 day plan just for you at InnaTopiler.com/jumpstartIf you need help with fatigue or brain fog with Hashimoto's, please check out Inna's 9 Day Exhaustion Solution at innatopiler.com/energyIf you don't yet know your thyroid type, please be sure you sign up for Inna's next free training at InnaTopiler.com/zoomcall Subscribe to Thyrolove and Save 15%https://thyrolove.com/
Trigger warning: I discuss fertility testing and weight loss in this episode, so please avoid this episode if those topics are triggering for youOn Monday we did an episode with the amazing Hazel Wallace all about PCOS and gynae health. It was an education, and I'm so thankful to Hazel for helping me create a resource for everyone who wants to know more about it as a condition and all the latest research. I mentioned in the episode that I've been on a real journey with my PCOS this year. It was one of my new years resolutions to get it under control, and I know health doesn't always love sticking to resolutions, but hey, I'm a goal orientated girl. So, after the episode I had loads of DMs asking what I've specifically done this year to tackle my PCOS, improve my skin, lose weight, lower my inflammation and generally improve my all round health, so I thought, why don't I take you through it in a bonus episode.Quick disclaimer before we begin, I'm not a doctor. I'm just a girl who was fed up of her symptoms and wanted to try absolutely everything to feel her best for her wedding!This is my personal experience and not medical advice.

You're doing everything “right” and your body's still like… nope. Can't drop the weight. Can't sleep. Can't stop yelling at your husband for breathing too loud. If you've ever blamed your hormones but couldn't explain which ones or why this episode is your wake-up call. I brought in hormone ninja Becca Chielankowski to break down the real hormone hierarchy (spoiler: insulin gets VIP access, not estrogen), why inflammation might be the real villain, and what's ACTUALLY driving your “fluffiness” in midlife. Becca and I cover: Why it's not just estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone The metabolic chaos of overtraining and undereating HRT myths, misfires, and must-know truths How cortisol got unfairly labeled the villain (and why it's not) The non-sexy foundations that actually fix your hormones And yes, why less hustle might save your health (gasp!)

Hey Heal Squad! Today we're joined by integrative pediatrician Dr. Joel “Dr. Gator” Warsh for a powerful conversation about why chronic illness is on the rise in kids, and what we can do about it. Dr. Joel dives into the rise in childhood conditions like eczema, asthma, and fatigue, and how hidden stressors like toxins, inflammation, and immune overload may be playing a bigger role than we think. He explains why a one-size-fits-all approach to vaccines and medications might not be serving every child, and how to work with your doctor to find a more individualized path. We also talk about the importance of gut health, what parents should really know about inflammation, and the lifestyle shifts that can build long-term resilience. Whether you're a parent, planning to be one, or just curious about prevention, this episode is filled with empowering info to help you take healing into your own hands. Let's raise a healthier generation, together! HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS Immune overload is real. Dr. Joel explains how frequent vaccines, toxins, and processed foods are overburdening children's immune systems and what we can do to restore balance. Inflammation isn't the enemy, it's a signal. Suppressing symptoms with meds misses the root cause. Instead, address underlying triggers like toxins, gut imbalances, and nutrient deficiencies to truly heal. The vaccine schedule isn't one-size-fits-all. Dr. Joel shares why individualized care is critical and how the current system isn't designed for personalization. Parents are the missing piece. When parents advocate, question, and collaborate with integrative providers, they can change the trajectory of their children's health. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy's Page: Shop My Macy's Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/ Join In-Person Heal Retreat Waitlist! https://mariamenounos.myflodesk.com/heal-retreat-waitlist GUEST RESOURCES: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drjoelgator/ Website: https://integrativepediatricsandmedicine.com/about/ Book: https://go.shopmy.us/p-21314744 ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos' passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

In this episode, Dr. Jockers and Christian Yordanov expose a hidden driver behind chronic illness: endotoxins. These toxic fragments from gut bacteria can leak into the bloodstream and ignite widespread inflammation. If you're dealing with fatigue, brain fog, or gut issues, this conversation could change everything. You'll learn how inflammation—though meant to protect—is often hijacked by endotoxins, leading to immune overload and long-term damage. Christian explains how this silent process affects your energy, heart, brain, and more, revealing just how deeply gut health impacts the rest of your body. We also challenge some popular health advice—like whether fiber is always a good thing. Christian shares why “feeding your gut” could backfire in certain cases, and offers practical strategies to lower endotoxin load, repair the gut barrier, and restore mitochondrial health through diet, supplements, and smart lifestyle changes.

Episode Summary: The Invisible Weight of Emotional Exhaustion and BurnoutIn this week's episode, Dr. Ali Novitsky explores the profound impact of emotional exhaustion on both mental and physical health. Emotional stress, often overlooked, can lead to elevated cortisol levels, inflammation, and hindered weight loss. Despite these effects, many hesitate to take time off for emotional well-being.Emotional Stress & Physical HealthDr. Novitsky details how emotional stress triggers physiological changes—such as fluid retention and inflammation—that directly affect health outcomes. Elevated cortisol from stress is particularly impactful on metabolism and weight regulation.Research on Emotional Stress ResponsesDr. Novitsky introduces her current research involving 150 women in the Transform program. The study categorizes emotional stress types and applies targeted interventions to help participants better manage their emotional responses and reduce burnout.The High Achiever TrapHigh achievers often overextend themselves by prioritizing others. Dr. Novitsky shares personal stories of being caught in this cycle—over-delivering and sacrificing mental health. She emphasizes the critical need for boundaries to avoid emotional inflammation and burnout.Boundaries as Emotional ProtectionSetting boundaries is essential for mental health. Dr. Novitsky explains how saying “no,” even when it's difficult, can protect emotional space and prevent burnout. She encourages listeners to assess where they need to draw lines—with others and themselves.Mental & Emotional InflammationFast-paced thinking and chronic stress often result in what Dr. Novitsky calls “mental inflammation.” She discusses how emotions drive thoughts, leading to restlessness and burnout. Creating mental boundaries helps slow this cycle.Practical StrategiesListeners are urged to take an “inventory” of their emotional health and boundaries. Tools include:Identifying areas of emotional floodingSetting personal boundariesReducing commitments that cause strainRecognizing when the dopamine hit of “yes” becomes harmfulPrograms & ResourcesDr. Novitsky highlights several FIT Collective offerings:Transform Program (72 CME credits, enrolling January)CME Nutrition Training ProgramGenetics CohortBeginner Strength and Total Fitness programsMore information is available at thefitcollective.com.Closing MessageDr. Novitsky looks forward to sharing upcoming workshop data on emotional stress types and encourages listeners to prioritize emotional self-care. Protecting your space, she says, is not selfish—it's essential.

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… Carrieann: Hi Dr Cabral! I was wondering if you were familiar with Peptide KPV and if you could offer some insight on it and how it works to decrease inflammation in the body. Thank you!! Jannah: Hi Dr Cabral, I've recently been diagnosed with visual snow (not Visual Snow Syndrome), confirmed by multiple specialists and a brain MRI. The symptoms began about a year ago, coinciding with high stress, chronic back pain, and returning to work in a brightly lit (LEDs), newly renovated office. Environmental changes like dimming lights, adjusting my computer screen and using eye-strain glasses have eased my painful headaches; however, I still experience tension behind my eyes and forehead. I understand that this is a neurological issue, so I'd appreciate any recommendations to support my brain health, neurological functioning and visual processing, please. I'm a 39 year old female, generally healthy and active, and based in Australia. Thank you! Tommy: Hello Stephen. I'm an IHP. A year ago I started having dhiarrea daily. My sleep also suffered, waking up in the night unable to fall back asleep even with magnesium/melatonin/breathwork. I had some leftover healthy belly, so began taking 2 morning and 2 night. Everything cleared up, my bowells were perfect , my mind was clearer, my body was calmer. I thought it was the mastic gum that had killed some h-pylori. About 7 days after stopping healthy belly, it all came back again. I've since done a parasite protocol which i had to stop 11 days before the end as I was feeling fatigued. I ran a stool test just before these symptoms and it showed citrabacter friundi. I'm unsure whether to do a parasite protocol again or run another stool test. Appreciate you Kari: Hi Dr. Cabral, I'm struggling to find the best option for clean water when traveling. I don't want to use plastic water bottles and glass options are rare and very expensive. I don't mind for flights and have even used Starbucks water that they put in my stainless steel bottle. I need options if I'm going to stay with a friend for a week and need to have clean water. I have looked at water bottles with filters, but I'm not sure if they're any good. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks! Shawnee: Hey there! I was wondering how long should you be taking digestive enzymes for? I feel great when I take them so I would hate to stop. But I don't want to mess up my system by over using them. Thanks!
