HouseCall: Nail Ridges, CBD for Anxiety, Liver Detox Tests, Hidradenitis Suppurativa, Motivators, Low Libido
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!
Ronda: I have a deep ridge in one of the nails on my left hand that has been there for close to a year. I have not slammed it in anything so I am concerned it is the sign of an underlying condition. Any and all information on what to do would be greatly appreciated. It has been there for close to a year. I have not seen any doctors regarding it, I have researched and can only find it can be from poor absorption. I suffer from muscle cramps regularly and I wonder if the two are related. I only drink water and have coconut water daily. My diet has not been great until recently when I started your fatlossity diet, which has been great. I have been on it for 2 weeks and have lost weight. Before the diet, I still ate pretty healthy eating grass-fed and organic foods as much as possible. I am not a big sugar eater but I do love fruit.
Mark: Hello Dr. Cabral, Hope you are well : ) I just listened to your Podcast on CBD Oil. Last weekend, I went to Seattle last weekend for a Qi Gong workshop which was great and I slept pretty darn well out there! After returning to Colorado, as the week progressed things got stressful and I didn’t sleep so well and got some new breakouts on my face. I’m thinking I should try some CBD for anxiety and sleep. What do you think? Can you recommend a CBD brand or product for me to purchase? Also, can you recommend a Naturopath or Functional Med Doc in the Denver/ Boulder Colorado area? All the Best, Mark O
Janice: what is the best test to check liver health? can you check if it goes through phase 1 and phase 2 detox? thanks!
Teresa: Hello Dr. Cabral, First off, thank you for the wealth of information you provide to your listeners. It truly has made a difference in my life! My daughter has the symptoms of HS, Hidradenitis Suppurativa. Last year she saw a dermatologist but all they do is suggest taking some form of medication and wearing tight clothing so that there is no rubbing on her skin. She was not diagnosed with HS but when I looked up her symptoms, everything matches what she is suffering from. She has marble-sized lumps under her armpits, occasional groin area, back, and various parts of her body and they do drain pus. I truly appreciate any knowledge and information your can share in helping her heal.
Lo: Hi! I love your MM Mondays, and now I almost wish every day was Monday. Unfortunately, I have listened to all of them now, and I wish there was more. Could you please recommend some books, articles, or especially podcasts that motivate YOU in your life? Thank you and keep up the good work!
Jennifer: Dear Dr.Cabral, I am 44 and in fairly good health. I could lose about 25-30 pounds and feel perfect. I did the 7-day detox in July and lost about 10 pounds and have kept 9 off so far. I have been struggling with my libido for quite some time now. I know there is an emotional component involved but I believe it’s more than that. At this point my libido is now at a zero. Can you advise me what test to take or what supplements I should look into? I have not seen a physician for this as I am not interested in medications if I can help it. Thank you for your time. I recommend you to all my clients, family, and friends. Jennifer
