Check out today’s questions:
Cara: Hi Dr. Cabral! Yesterday (August 31) about 45 minutes after a hard workout at 10:30 am; deadlift holds, overhead holds, kettlebell swings, assault bike, I got home and I had wavy lights in my peripheral vision. It freaked me out and this had happened to me a couple of months ago and I remembered a nurse friend said it was likely low blood sugar. I ate some mango and about 20 minutes later it went away. I had a DNS smoothie with blueberries and avocado about an hour before my workout and by the time I was done working out, I had half a gallon of water. This has happened 3 times in the last 4 years, each time was after a work out. I’m super healthy, I don’t drink alcohol. I do the Dr Cabral Foundation Level 1 plus cal/mag, 3,000mg of Alkalized vitamin c, lysine, Vitamin D, CBD. I eat wild salmon twice a week and sardines 3 times a week, so I only occasionally take EN fish oil. I started to google search this but stopped because things like mini-strokes came up. All of my recent bloodwork was all where it should be according to your podcast guidance and I just had an eye exam and other than my life long near-sightedness, my eye health is perfectly healthy. Does this sound like low blood sugar? If so, why would it be the case if I ate breakfast and worked out at 10:30, plus had 32 oz of water? I do not want to go to a doctor because it’ll be at least an MRI ordered. Im in your IHP Level 2 right now. Thank you for ALL you do!
Cara: Follow up: I received a reply from our Dr Cabral Support Group from an optometrist and she said that what I experienced could be a visual aura. She said most visual auras precede a migraine or headache but a good amount of people never get the headache and just experience the aura. I never had a headache or a migraine after any of these occurrences. Then my next question, why would I be getting these aura migraines?
Gabriela: Hi Dr. Cabral First I love your podcasts, very informative. Now for my question do you believe women should fast differently than men, are you familiar whith Dr. Beth who is all about women’s health. She believes women should have snacks during the fast because of our hormones. Would really love to hear what you have to say about this. Thank you!
Luke: Hi Dr. Cabral. Would you be able to tell me what you typically feed your dog. As with humans, diet for pets seems to be a topic that has many differing opinions. What does your dog’s diet look like (types of foods and amount), and do you give him any supplements? I know you would have done your research on this and I appreciate your response. Thank you.
Richelle: Hi Dr, Cabral,I’ve done your 7 day detox and am currently using the deep sleep protocol. I love using the support group and Michelle advised me to ask you my specific question. I have Blepharitis and my doctor currently has me using tea tree oil wipes which has helped. She says it will never be cured but by doing this it will keep it under control. Because of this, I rarely wear any makeup. I also suspect that I have a parasite issue and plan on doing that protocol in October after my trip to Jamaica.I also have been diagnosed with Afib and aflutter and had open heart surgery as a baby back in 1960. I’m currently on a blood thinner,Eliquis, and take diltiazem for high blood pressure. I’m taking magnesium and only half the recommendation for the blood thinner. At my request, my doctor is gradually lowering my blood pressure medicine as I don’t want to be on any meds. I’ve lost 11 pounds recently, retired from teaching after 36 years and need to lose more weight as I know it will help lower blood pressure. Please give me your expert advice regarding my issues.Thanks for your time
Natasha: Hi SC I was wondering if there was a way to stop or get rid of seborrheic keratosis other than freezing them off. As i get older I seem to be getting more and more and im becoming self conscious to wear a bikini in summer they are over my back and stomach and chest and dont look that great. Would appreciate any advice. Thank You
