HouseCall: Spermadine, Long-Term Melatonin Use, Ascorbic Acid & Acid Reflux, Natural Ecdysteroids & Hormones, Ramsay Hunt Syndrome
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:
Kim: Thoughts on spermadine?
Erin: Hi Dr. Cabral! Thanks for all of your insight! Thoughts on long term melatonin use affecting your body’s ability to produce the hormone naturally?
Jessica: When it comes to ascorbic acid and acid reflex, safe to take? How does this work out? I would love to understand more.
Anthony: Hi Doc, a huge thank you for the time and effort you invest into guiding us listeners in simple adaptations we can make to lead longer and cleaner lives. I’m closing in on 40 years of age and I’ve been an avid gym goer for 20+ years. Typically with weight training 4 days a week and a 20 minute walk everyday, having always struggled to gain weight, I was looking to put on some muscle mass and tried turkesterone and laxogenin together starting at half the recommended dose of each. After 6 weeks I noticed I was reaching personal best strength and as a result had gained almost 4lbs, sleep quality was better too. Unfortunately I broke out in quite bad acne on my back. Could these products effect hormones? I was under the impression natural ecdysteroids don’t impact hormone levels. Thanks.
Luke: I’m wondering if there is anything that I can remedy from an underlying perspective for Ramsay hunt syndrome. I know antivirals do work but they don not stop the constant ringing in the ears. Any help would be appreciated. Love what you’re doing! Thank you!
