HouseCall: Gut/Brain Connection & Behavior, High CRP, Product Recommendations, High Oxalate Foods, Nattokinase Benefits

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:

Susie: My son is level 1 ASD. He is very high functioning and attends mainstream school. His main issue is his rigid thinking which leads to mis-reading situations and this has a great impact on him socially. He is liked by his peers but is socially excluded and as a 16 year old boy this is tough. We have done years of therapy but are in the same boat regarding this issue…do you have any advice/protocols that may help him if this is a gut/brain issue that effects any potential thoughts or behaviour? He does well academically, is loved and respected by teachers and has recently been elected by his peers and teachers to be a prefect. This situation is very confusing for us as the lack of real friends and social interactions doesn’t make sense to us. Please help if you can

Andie: Hi Stephen, I just wanted to thank you for the incredible podcast and everything you continue to share. I’ve learned so much from you over the years. I’m hoping you might have some insight on a health issue I’m trying to figure out. My hs-CRP recently came back at 46.7 mg/L, after previously being 6.4 mg/L and 0.2 mg/L before that. I follow a very clean, whole-food diet and take your foundational supplements, including Omega-3, DNS, and Vitamin D3 + K2. I’ve also completed the CBO and Heavy Metals programs. I do have Type 1 diabetes, although my A1C is around 5.1%. Do you have any recommendations for what I should investigate or consider to identify the cause of such a high CRP? Thank you again for all the work you do!

Willow: Hello Dr. Cabral! I just recently discovered your podcast and was listening to an episode where you cover the topic of sea moss. I was inclined to begin taking it before, but after you mentioned there being plenty of other more beneficial products to take, I reconsidered. I’m curious what your top 10 recommended products would be to start taking? I am young teenager and am wanting to prioritize my overall health. Thank you so much for your time and attention!

Missy: What is your take on high oxalate foods? I feel they affect may people and should be avoided however your smoothies and food plans suggest many of those foods Hope you talk about this

Bob: In one of your YouTube videos you stated that Nattokinase doesn’t help everyone and you would tell who it doesn’t help and why, but I missed what you said about who it doesn’t help and why?

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!
