Check out today’s questions:
Tiffany: Good morning Dr. Cabral. Your information and detox have helped me so much over the past year and I am on a mission to do the best for myself and family that I can. I was diagnosed with vertical heterophoria or BVD several years ago. I get terrible anxiety usually while driving and I had a panic attack while going over an extremely high bridge and now I am very anxious whenever I have to drive over bridges. I am usually a very bold person and would not really consider myself anxious, except in these circumstances. Any advice you could give for dealing with this condition? I could not find this topic covered in the podcasts. I do work in front of a computer for 8-10 hours a day but do try to disconnect as soon as I can each evening. Thanks so much for all your great insight.
Natalia: Hi Dr. Cabral, could you do a podcast on emotional eating? Thanks a lot
Patrick: Hey doc hope all is well. About 6 months ago I tore some cartilage in my elbow ,it only bothers me now if I over do it at the gym doing certain exercise’s then it will bother me for a few days. A lot of the things I read said it won’t heal itself because there’s not enough blood flow there ,what do you think. I just started taking your collagen powder so I will be done it by the time you read this ,how soon does it usually take to see some results thanks so much
Michael: Hello Dr.Cabral, I had DVT about 1 1/2 years ago. Went to a hematologist and was told I had APS ( Antiphospholipid Syndrome) a blood clotting disorder. I was told it falls under autoimmune disease. I was told blood thinners (Xarelto 20 mg)would be long term. My question can I reverse this so I don’t have to be on blood thinners the rest of my life. 55 years of age eat very healthy exercise 4 to 5 days a week not over wait. Sincerely Michael
Rachel: Hello Mr. Cabral. I listen to your podcast on my morning drive and the wealth of information has helped me and my family so much. I’ve not quite figured this one out yet. My son at 14 started getting severe acne from what seems like an over production of oil. Nothing worked except for Accutane (I didn’t know any better) but a year later, it’s starting to come back just not severe. He’s now 17. My daughter who is 21 started getting the same kind of acne a year and a half ago and nothing is helping her either. What can be causing this? My heart hurts for them. She’s in College and it’s affecting every aspect of her life. Could this be hereditary? I have not ran any labs because money is an issue. Anything else I could do to help them that’s inexpensive? Thanks
Janet: Why do i sweat sooo much? Im on medication to help but still haven’t noticed any change. I am on antidepressants and anti anxiety medication which is none to increase my sweating but even when i wasnt on them i sweat alot more than normal. Any natural recommendations to help me please!!!! Thank you and huge fan
