Summary
Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows!
This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track!
Check out today's questions:
Ashley: Hello! My 7 year old son has very enlarged tonsils. He does have allergies and currently takes monolucast every night. I remember you talking about your daughter having enlarged tonsils and you did a protocol and it helped reduce them. He doesn't snore eveynight but sometimes he does. I don't want to have his removed and was hoping you could share what you did for your daughter and I could possibly try it on him. Thank you for your help and truly appreciate all your help.
Patti: Hi Dr. Cabral Wishing you well. I have listened to all of your podcast referencing breast cancer & many on cancer. I have had breast cancer twice in the same breast. I completed approximately 18 gene tests & none of them were found. I don't eat red meat, dairy or saturated fats & stopped eating eggs which I did not eat often. I do eat pasture raised organic chicken & turkey & wild caught sockeye salmon. Is there any research that they can contribute to an increase in cancer? Thank you as always!!
Jennifer: Hello Dr. Cabral! Thank you for taking the time to try to help me. I'm a huge fan and an avid listener! My naturopath ran bloodwork on my first visit with her and discovered my iron was high (169 with iron saturation at 56, TIBC was 304 and UIBC was 135). She did not check ferritin at the time, but everything else she tested was in the normal range. She had me take Alpha Lipoic Acid for a month and retested me 4 months later. I got "the virus" 2 months before the retest. At the retest, she tested ferritin (just regular ferritin, not saturation or any other measure). This time, my TIBC and UIBC were in the low range at 226 and 106, respectively. My iron went down to 120 and my iron saturation went down to 53. My ferritin was 247. My naturopath wanted me to take Alpha Lipoic Acid again to lower the ferritin, but I wonder about that, as my iron is fine now and my TIBC and UIBC are low. She wants to retest and if my ferritin is still high, start having me get my blood drawn to lower it. I personally wonder if the high ferritin is due to inflammation from the virus or if there's another missing piece here. I'm hoping you can steer me in the right direction of what to test for or any other ideas. Thank you so much for all you do!
Anouk: Hi there, I've been listening to your podcast which has been very eye opening. I have a few questions concerning my PCOS. On 6/18/21 I had a panel done. FSH: 10.3 pg/ml PROGESTERONE: 34 FREE TESTOSTERONE: 116 DHEA, ETRADIOL, T3, FREE T4 , LH, TPO ANTIBODIES, TSH , CORTISOL: ( all in normal range). I started taking all of the supplements below and re-tested on 1/20/22 and my levels were: PROGESTERONE: 13 FREE TESTOSTERONE: 58 DHEA: 2.1 and everything else was in normal range. Since my first lab on 6/18/2020 I have been taking these daily: MYO-INOSITOL, NAC, CURCUMIN, QUERCETIN, OMEGA 3, G.I PROBIOTIC At what point can I stop taking these supplements? I am a 27 year old female I exercise almost daily height 5' 8'' weight 125 My periods have gone from 67 day cycles to 35 days cycles and lasts around 3 days. My skin has cleared up and I know longer experience frequent panic attacks! ( My periods are still extremely painful) I am hoping to not be dependent on these but definitely don't want to risk having my previous symptoms return. Would love to know your insight, thanks again very much appreciate all the information you share. Anouk
Pat: I take an estrogen/hormone blocker as I call it Anastrozole (same as tamoxifen) How should I go about to lose weigh all I do is gain and I watch my carbs and eat very clean and exercise. Is there anything I can do?
