HouseCall: Mammograms, Poisonous Gas, Flu Shot, Genetic Testing, Liver Disease

I’m really looking forward to this weekend’s HouseCalls because we’ve upped our Q&A to 5 questions per show!

Check out today’s community questions:

CC: Hi Stephen, what are your thoughts on mammograms and the titanium marker clips? Thanks always for your inspiring podcasts!

Sarah: Hi Dr. Cabral – I recently heard that Radon is super poisonous and responsible for many illnesses. What are your thoughts? is it worth it to buy a radon detector for my home?

Michele: Hello again Dr. Cabral! Me again! I was wondering what your opinion is on getting a flu shot. I have never gotten one and have mixed feelings about it. I am almost 47 and healthy and cannot even tell you the last time I had the flu let alone a cold. Just curious to know your thoughts. If you have already addressed this subject, please just respond to this with the podcast number. Thanks as always for the selfless time and energy you put into helping others! So grateful! Be well, Michelle

Rebekah: Hi there, I’m interested in the Genetic DNA Wellness Package, but I have a few questions. One – Do the results cover what would be in all of the other targeted packages (Omega-3, Hormone, etc.)? Two – Would it be possible to submit to insurance for coverage?

Michael: Hello Dr. Cabral, My name is Michael from Alberta Canada. Thank you for your encouragement and your great content! My question is actually for my grandmother. She has recently become very ill because of what has been called liver failure from apparently drinking in excess. She has been told that there is basically no solution for fixing her liver and she has met with a dietitian who has prescribed her a low salt diet and to avoid drinking anything anymore. If she doesn’t drink and her condition improves then she may be able to have a partial liver transplant in the future. Though unlikely. Is there a diet that could help speed up her recovery and any supplements or other protocols that she could follow? You said on episode 360 that little by little people can recover from anything, they just need some hope. I just hope this is true in my grandmother’s case. Thank you again for all you do. All the best

I hope you enjoyed the show and be sure to tune back in tomorrow when I answer another 5 community questions!
