HouseCall: Home Water Filtration, Laser Skin Resurfacing, High Starch Diet, Reactions to Weather, No Thyroid
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:
Amber: Hi Dr. Cabral. I am very grateful for you and your team and all that you have created/done for this community. I am 46 years old and definitely feel better than I did in my 30’s thanks to you! We are looking to install a whole home water filtration system for our house. I have looked at several of them but when I reach out for information, they all boast that the other companies are far less superior and I am having a hard time sifting through the non-sense. My ultimate goal is to have a system that removes all the nastiness, including fluroride, chlorine, etc. so we can drink/shower safely in any of the faucets/showers throughout our home. Are you familiar with the Vitasalus PureMaster V-700 FluorideMaster Combo and if so, would you recommend it? If not, what would you put on your home?
Laddy: Hello Dr. Stephen Cabral! I want to thank you so much for what you are doing I’m have learned so much from you and I absolutely adore your YouTube channel and podcast! God bless you! I would like to know what you think of laser skin resurfacing Treatment such as halo or opus plasma and BBL/IPL light therapy treatments for anti-aging? I would also like to know what you think of medical grade skin care or do you believe in keeping your skin care line all natural?
Carla: Thank you for your informative podcasts. They are so helpful. My boyfriend is very committed to the McDougal high starch diet. I am a little concerned for the health and sustainability of this plan. What are your thoughts on this plan?
Crystal: Hello. I have waited a long time to ask this question. I have noticed my body is very sensitive to weather changes in humidity, pressures, storms, and or snow. An abrupt change from clear skies to a cloudy incoming storm will cause immense pain in my stomach that radiates outward to my ribs effecting my breathing. It also cause gurgling in my stomach, nausea, burping, and I get pale etc…I’m not sure if this is triggering my vagus nerve or if it’s a vasovagal attack, or possible abdominal migraine. This has been happening a couple years now. It has got somewhat better. I have done a lot of work with your team. I guess I would like your insight into this, and how the weather could be contributing/cause. I am embarrassed to even ask. Thank you so much for a starting point/ root cause.
Lynn: Hi Dr. Cabral: Thank you for these house call podcasts. I really enjoy them and look forward to listening every week. I wondered if you have any suggestions for someone who is living without a thyroid gland. I had mine removed 40 years ago due to cancer. They also removed the parathyroid. I take natural thyroid (armour) as a replacement. My levels are stable and within “normal” range. However, I wonder if there is things that I can do to nutritionally to improve uptake or things I should avoid that would inhibit uptake. Appreciate all you do and I look forward to hearing the answer to my question in 12 weeks or so.
