HouseCall:
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…
Let’s get started!
Anonymous: Hi doctor Cabral, I have a bit of an embarrassing question and I feel very uncomfortable discussing this with the people I know, so really hoping you can help me. How can you tell the difference between brown vaginal discharge (old blood) and a runny stool on your hygienic pad? I have some bowel issues, so sometimes when I pass gas, a little bit stool comes out and ends up on my pad. And when I wear tight pants and sit all day, the pad can move, so the stool ends up a bit higher – where your vaginal discharge usually is. I want to be mindful of brown discharge too, because I have some hormonal problems. Anyway, I really feel super embarrassed about asking this question, so I hope you don’t mind answering. Thanks so much in advance for your answer, I really appreciate it.
Mark: Hi doctor Cabral, What are your thoughts on hydrogen-rich water? Are the health claims around it true? And do you think a hydrogen water maker would be a good investment for one’s health? Thank you in advance for your advice! Mark
Michelle: Hi! I know you recommend being dairy free. I am for the most part. I really like Greek yogurt and seem to tolerate it well. What are your opinions on yogurt?
Tim: Hi Dr. Cabral, I love your podcast and love your products. Thank you for all of your time and effort, I appreciate it. My question is does diet tonic water have any negative effects on the body? I like to drink one in my shaker cup in the morning mixed with lemon. I just like the taste and a change from regular water. Is this ok or is it not good for me?
Simon: Hi Dr C! For about two years I’ve been getting red swollen sores on my lip and penis (always in the same place) that a bacterial test has shown to be overgrowth of staphylococcus. They typically flare up at the same time and usually when I get a cold or am run-down. Can you recommend anything to rid myself of this overgrowth permanently (or reduce the frequency and magnitude of outbreaks? I tried using antibacterial wash consistently for a fortnight but that doesn’t seem to have done the job. I’d love your thoughts.
Anonymous: Hi dr cabral, many many thanks for all you do! I have a question about my 18 yr old daughter. She has a little history, at around 14 she started restricting her diet for her sport. Thats the short version. During that tine she started her period. Very heavy periods. It lead to anemia, an iron transfusion & followed by a blood transfusion. She now is sadly on a bc pill. she still has irregular periods, cramps.. i took her for her yearly chec up at her regular doctor and her non fasting cholesterol came back high. She is a very active girl. Competitive cheerleader, tumbling, loves running & working out and honestly eats pretty healthy. She also suffers from anxiety.. Are there supplements that can help. Please help with some direction as to how i can help get her on track—endless thanks
