HouseCall:
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!
Mariana: Thank you and your team for all that you do! What are your thoughts on tahini? I have quite a bit on days 14-28 of my cycle as I do seed cycling but I believe it’s made from TOASTED sesame seeds? Does this mean that it’s not actually as healthy as portrayed? Thank you!
Kelsey: Hello Doctor, I am 27 year old female. I recently went off TRT and I have a hypothyroid condition. I have had a history of past anorexia nervosa. I am now doing much better in that regard, I am about 130lbs 5’2 and 24ish %body fat. I am a very active individual and have always been health conscious. My diet is almost 100% Whole Foods and I have been on fertility treatment the majority of this year and have been unsuccessful. I have never had a child and have gone for many years with missing periods (no PCOS). In 2020 I went on birth control because I had regained my cycles naturally and was trying to boost hormones to conceive eventually. My question for you is this: how can i regain my natural cycles without medical assistance for each one, and what should my steps be forward from here?
Amanda: Hello! I am 34 years old,105 lbs, 5’1. During my pregnancy, I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes- 1.5 years post partum the glucose intolerance is still here. My body type is Vata. Fasting glucose and insulin is normal/low, but the post prandial blood sugar after 55G+ carbs takes 3-4 hours to return to baseline and spikes quiet high and the spike is delayed. I went low to no carb for 5 years due to chronic bloating many years ago. It helped for a few months and then did not help but I continued. Blood sugar is worse during luteal-menstrual. My diet is very clean, balanced organic. PP sugar worse when im low carb. No family hx of Diabetes. I also work as a dentist – could heavy metal exposure could cause glucose issues? Have you seen this? Do you think there is hope to get better?
Maria: Hello Dr. Cabral. Thank you so much for being awesome. I have a question about cellulitis. My 75 year old mom recently had a bout with cellulitis. I wanted to ask you what can you tell me about cellulitis, how can we prevent it from happening again. I did search your past podcast but didn’t find what I was looking for.
Gemma: Please can you do a podcast on non hormonal contraception. Or whatever deception methods you consider safe. I am about to get my coil removed it is a progesterone one. I have ductal hyperplasia and I do not want yearly mammograms I just want to get to the underlying root causes and I believe that I should not using any hormones. Thanks
Lisa: How do you get rid of mycotoxins -Ochratoxin I took a mold test and this was a little high 8.83 Are there supplements I can take ? I have been doing IR sauna with binders for 2 years 3-4 times a day but obviously the this is not enough
