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: Felicia: Hello Dr. Cabral. What are your thoughts on this magnesium supplement ? Magnesium bisglycinate, fillers (microcrystalline cellulose, dicalcium phosphate), anti-caking agents (silicon dioxide, magnesium stearate), coating agents (hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, glycerol). Worth taken or should I look for another one? Thanks for your help Audrey: Hi Dr. Cabral, Thank you for being my go to person for all of my health questions! What are your thoughts on taking creatine while pregnant? I am going to keep strength training throughout my pregnancy and am hoping this helps with maintaining some muscle. I've read great things about it helping mom and baby but want to know what you think. I know you cannot give medical advice. Thanks Elsa: Hi Dr. Cabral! Thanks for all the information you provide. I'm a fairly recent listener but already have learned so much from you. May God continue to bless you, your family, and your team. My question is regarding my husband. He did a genetic test and came out positive for the MTHFR heterozygous A1298C and COMT heterozygous G472A (Val108/158Met). I've listened to your recent podcasts on COMT, but my question is regarding supplements to avoid if you have this variant. He doesn't take any medications, and already takes methylated B complex to support MTHFR and high homocysteine levels (8.3). He also takes Vit C, Zinc+Copper, Mag, Vit D+K2, Omega 3s, Probiotics. The test results indicate to avoid Quercetin and Green Tea because they are COMT inhibitors? True? Thanks. Bettina: Hello Dr. Cabral. What are your thought on Super CitriMax for weightloss using a combination of 4500 mg Garcinia Cambogia with 60% HCA with 600 mg of Chromium and 1000 mg of B3 Niacinamide or B3 Nicotinamide? Thanks for your thoughts on this. Hannah: Hi Dr Cabral! I wrote in when you said the que was closer to 2-3 weeks and I haven't heard my question yet so this is incase my question got lost- myself and a couple of people I've met recently get an elevated heart rate when drinking alcohol (even 1 drink). This has never happened to me before and I'm very well hydrating prior, what else besides histamines could this be? Second, I have a very scant amount of blood per rectum every couple of days since starting the CBO, have you heard of this happening? I'm thinking to d/c citricidal early, I didn't test prior to CBO and only have 3 days left of that to see if it's related. Thanks for everything!! 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/3389 - - - 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?

Josh describes the three legs of the stool that contribute to President Trump's economic plan, including tariffs, taxes, and exemptions.

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… Lara: Hi, dr. Cabral! Hope you & your family are doing well.. I've heard from a trusted source that people who never get sick actually have a bad immune system response.. that it means their immune system doesn't recognise a threat (virus for example) & that's why they never get sick.. but that doesn't make sense to me, wouldn't that just mean that the viruses would then just stay in your body if your immune system wouldn't try to fight them? And they would wreak havoc on it? I don't know if my way of thinking is correct but would love to hear your input on this.. thanks for all you do, you're absolutely amazing! Anonymous: Hello, I am wondering in methylene blue. I found one of your podcasts where you mention it in a positive manner but now I am hearing about it being derived from petroleum?! So is it a synthetic petroleum-derived chemical? Or is it a great bio hacking tool? I don't believe it can be both, but I know too little about it. Would love a whole show on it from your perspective, if possible, because it's supposed to have so many benefits, but how if it's made this way? Thanks Sarah: Hello!! Curious about the white lines on my nails. I've had them on and off throughout my life. I heard it could be about nutrient deficiencies. I've done the HTMA and completed a protocol to balance my minerals, I eat a clean whole food diet, I take HCL with my meals to help digestion. I also get a lot of random bruises on my legs, unsure if this is related. I've done the 7 day detox, CBO and heavy metals protocol, I take the DNS also zinc and omegas, aswell as l glutamine, creatine, collagen, vit D and some adaptogens. I dry brush, gua sha, rebound, sauna, exercise, lots of walking etc. Anything to be concerned about with the white lines on nails/bruising on the legs? Thanks so much for all you do Linda: Hey Dr Cabrel,I am writing about my granddaughter. She is almost 6 months old, breech cesarean birth baby, fully breast feed. My daughter is very health conscience, gluten free dairy free for years for her own health, lives as toxic free as possible. My question is the baby started to have some blood in her stool around 2 months which the Dr said is a reaction to what my daughter eats. She has limited so many things and eats the same thing every day. They think eggs/chicken are a big trigger as well as oats. Where do we go to find help. The Drs really dont have much to say for guidance and she is getting to an age to start with solids. Thanks! Slava: Hello, To Stephan Cabral: Have you ever dealt with a patient that was going through TSW (topical steroid withdrawal) symptoms? Currently on day 16 for the CBO protocol, have done the big 5 lab tests in 2023. Used corticosteroids since 2020. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Patient is from Georgia in the US and is volunteering in Hérico, Guinea (town in the Lélouma Prefecture in the Labé Region of northern-central Guinea). She arrived in Guinea in December 2023. She was taking doxycycline for malaria prophylaxis and says that she has not missed any doses On October 2024 she presented with fever and dry cough. Lab work was done and follow up planned for the following day. The patient slept poorly, was febrile to 104 and had ongoing cough. The next day she went to the hospital and was evaluated in the ER for acute febrile illness of unclear etiology. In the hospital, VS were 97.9F, BP 105/70, P 94 Oxy sat 98%, normal physical exam. She was started on Augmentin and Coartem. Pause here to think about the differential at this point and maybe some more history and what testing you might want WBC 14, Hb 13, HCT 40, PLT 285, Neut abs 8, Eos Abso0.80; BUN/creat normal, AST normal; ALT 44, GGT 125 Stool parasite screen + for some sort of eggs, malaria smear negative, CXR with b/l infiltrates She was given a medication (vomited 30 min after dose received). She then received a second dose of medication 5 hours after the first) and was discharged. The following day the patient returned to the ER, stating that she felt worse. Her temperature had climbed to 104 overnight, and she developed watery diarrhea and nausea. There were no additional episodes of vomiting. She was given an additional dose of a medication, ibuprofen, and started on ceftriaxone 1 gm IV Q12 hrs. During the day she continued to have low grade fevers and developed abdominal pain. That night she was again febrile to 104 F. She remained admitted for 5 days with ongoing symptoms of diarrhea, nighttime fevers and diffuse abdominal discomfort. Three more malaria tests were negative (rapid test and slide review) Blood cultures collected – no growth She continued to have mild elevation of WBC and slight elevation of AST and ALT. The patient was transferred to a different hospital. They give her a different medication, and within 24 hours symptoms resolve. What is the diagnosis and what happened here with management?

Orla's husband has had to send his sample four times for bowel screening. Former guards debate the new changes to fitness testing for Gardaí. Trudy's flight was diverted to Newfoundland for a weekend. Tara Maria is looking for photos of people who experienced the War Of Independence.
One of the most valuable tests she recommends is Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA), which provides a long-term look at nutrient levels, mineral imbalances, and heavy metal exposure. Since minerals are the foundation of optimal hormone function, ensuring they are in balance is key to feeling your best. Tara also highlights the importance of stool testing for gut health and explains why she considers blood work essential for tracking long-term trends in metabolic and hormonal health. On the flip side, she advises against spending money on hormone testing (like the DUTCH test) in perimenopause, as hormone levels fluctuate too much to provide reliable data. She also discusses why organic acids tests and food sensitivity panels often lead to unnecessary treatments instead of addressing root causes. If you've ever felt overwhelmed by lab testing options, this episode will give you clarity on where to focus your efforts—and your budget. In this episode: The problem with unnecessary lab testing – Many women waste money on tests that don't provide useful insights. HTMA (Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis) – A must-have test that offers a deep look at mineral levels, nutrient imbalances, and heavy metals affecting hormone health. Stool testing – Essential for gut health, which impacts everything from digestion to hormone metabolism. Blood work – Important for tracking metabolic trends, inflammation markers, and overall health over time. Why hormone testing isn't helpful in perimenopause – Hormone levels fluctuate daily, making tests like DUTCH unreliable for assessing estrogen and progesterone levels. Why organic acids and food sensitivity tests aren't necessary – These tests often lead to additional unnecessary testing instead of targeting true root causes. How to make informed choices – Focus on testing that provides actionable data and long-term health benefits.

In this moment, the gastroenterologist and gut health expert Dr Will Bulsiewicz breaks down everything you need to know about how your poo is one of the biggest signs of your overall health.Will says that too often we see poo as disgusting rather than a major clue of our health, as he says poo for a gastroenterologist is what checking the pulse is for a cardiologist. He says that signs can range from the size, smell and shape of poo, all of which can indicate anything from a poor diet to colon cancer. This is because 60% of your poo is bacteria and a direct window into the state of your microbiome which impacts all areas of your mental and physical wellbeing.
