Summary
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…
Linda: Hello! I can't run due to injuries. I use a stationary bike for cardio. How can I do a V02Max test with the stationary bike? Thank you!
Jen: I am getting Dyshidrosis on my hands and it seems to be spreading. What are some root causes of this and where should I start in treating this?
Sandra: Hello doctor Cabral, I'm a 45 yo woman, and lately I have been waking up drenched in sweat in the middle of the night. What could be the cause, and what can I do about it? I'm a 45 year old woman, with a healthy (plant-based) lifestyle. regular strength training and regular menstruation. Thanks so much for your feedback, I really appreciate it
Tom: Hi Doctor Cabral. My son is 26 and suffers with severe OCD to the point where it is debilitating and affects his relationship with his girlfriend hugely. He is always interrogating her asking "what did you mean by that comment" at the most insignificant things and I can see it's killing both him and her because he can't help it. He's had these OCD traits since he was a young boy but they seemed to worsen significantly after the covid vaccine where he began to develop health anxiety too. He is also covered in tattoos, smokes and vapes daily (was thinking maybe heavy metals may relate?) I'm trying to convince him that lifestyle has an impact on neurotransmitters and mental health but he won't listen. Is there any info on lifestyle / diet and OCD? Thanks so much!
Anonymous: Hi Dr Cabral. I sincerely appreciate all the work you do in supporting others through information about natural intervention. I wanted to ask about Herpes outbreaks. I have listened to your podcast #760 several times. You speak about how to treat cold sores topically and I wondered if you could advise on treating herpes sores on genital areas topically. I have read a lot about Lemon Balm. Do you have any advice on what can be used to ease sores? Many thanks
