HouseCall: Pea Protein, Idiopathic Intercranial Hypertension, Detox & Zinc, Persistent Fatigue, Methylation & Morning Smoothie
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!
Diane: Greetings Dr. Cabral, I have been using the DNS powder for quite some time, however I found through taking the IGG Food Sensitivity test that I’m pretty sensitive to peas, certain beans, lentils, hemp hearts and other food sources. I noticed the DNS powder has yellow pea protein, not green pea protein and wondered if because of this I should refrain from using the powder and go directly to the Multi’s instead? I very much enjoy my daily morning shakes but don’t wish to add to the sensitivity problem. Thank you for any advice you can lend.
Kim: I am a 54 year old female diagnosed with empty sella, idiopathic intercranial hypertension, and central apnea. Are there things that I can do to help myself naturally? Prescribed medications were not good for my kidneys. Currently waiting to see if my kidney function recovers . Thank you Kim
John: Hey doc. I took the heavy metal test and was high in mercury and lead. I’ve been using the Therasage sauna you recommended 3 days a week for 30 minutes for about 2 years so I was surprised my numbers were high. I ordered the heavy metal detox and I wanted to know if I should stop taking your balanced zinc and hair support while on the detox . Thanks for all the great work you and your team is doing
Stephen: Hi Dr. Cabral, Thank you for all you do to help people restore and maintain their health. I’ve been struggling with persistent fatigue and exhaustion for the past 10 years. No matter how much sleep I get, I’m always tired. I’ve done a 21 day and a 7 day FM detox which have made me feel better in other areas, but the fatigue persists. Do you have any chronic fatigue specific protocols or suggestions?
Spencer: Hello Dr. Cabral I like the idea of a smoothie for breakfast full of 100% of my vitamins and minerals. However, I am an over methylater and tend to get hyper and anxious from the DNS. Is there any way I can still take it (perhaps anything I could take alongside) and avoid these symptoms apart from just lower the amount as I feel 1/2 to 1/4 scoop isn’t enough to make a smoothie palatable. I’ve found better results taking folate as folinic acid and B12 as adenosylcobalamin and hydroxocobalamin. I’m sure it’s not profitable to make a DNS with non methylated b vitamins since this won’t affect most people. Thanks
