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:

Anonymous: Hi Dr Cabral! I’m convinced I have lipedema. I haven’t been to the Dr to confirm yet. My torso, arms & legs all feel like I have grainy/pebbly texture beneath the skin. My knees have a weird “fat pad” on the side. I listened to another show where you mentioned lipedema, & I thought you said you have been able to help people reverse it. All of my research says it’s incurable, but can manage it and calm swelling and pain, but the nodular fat will not go away without lipo. My questions are: are you familiar with any other scenario where texture I feel on myself as I described is normal? Or is that pebbly feeling always lipedema? Have you actually seen people get rid of the nodular lipedema fat & heal completely? Or just reduce swelling, pain & normal fat?Diet advice for this condition? Thanks

Anonymous: Dr C! Thank you for all you do! I am a 52 yr old post menopausal female, who is pretty healthy, dove into your supplements and detox about 1 yr now. Recently I had normal labs taken by my MD with the results of my alanine aminotransferase (SGPT), serum slighty elevated from last year (range 10-34, mine was 53, last year it was 35). Negative for hepatitis, not a drinker, cholesterol is good, weigh 110 at 5'2, Ultrasound also showed a healthy liver...could it be certain supplements? Thanks in advance! PS have done the 7 day detox 3x now and will do again in May

Anonymous: Hey Dr Cabral....Love listening to you daily! Question ... how important is taking creatine if you are in menopause? Want to maintain healthy muscles whiles strength training but not really a fan about how I hear it may bloat you. Thanks for all you do!

Anonymous: I recently completed my 2nd DNAge test, included in my HPH membership. I was shocked to receive the results indicating that based on my methylation value, l aged an additional 6 years in 8 months! I basically follow Dr. Cabral's lifestyle recommendations to the letter. I eat a primarily Mediterranean diet, detox 4 times a year, sauna, resistance and cardio train, prioritize sleep, PEMF mat, minimal to no alcohol, and practice meditation and mindfulness. Additionally, I do the Big 5 four times per year. The only 2 things I have changed in the time between tests is that I have eliminated a very low dose of estrogen and progesterone that I was prescribed for post menopausal symptoms and I have added cold plunge 3 times per week. I am 63 years old. Please advise.

Emily: My partner 23 (M) has recently started experiencing debilitating anxiety. This is not normal for him and he has not experienced anxiety like this before or at all. He was sick this last month with a 104 degree fever and for a few weeks was experiencing skin sensitivity in certain spots. What would you recommend in helping navigate this new anxiety and help him start feeling “normal” again.

Kay: Hi Dr. Cabral, Thanks so much for your great podcasts- I look forward to them every week. My question is: what are your thoughts on the use of testosterone to help post-menopausal women maintain muscle mass and bone health as well as hypoactive sexual desire disorder? My physician is recommending a small amount of a compounded formulation of testosterone to be injected in the subcutaneous skin layer every 10 days. Are there any less invasive and more natural ways to achieve the same benefits that you would recommend? I have heard that testosterone is a controlled substance and I am wondering if it could potentially cause side effects such as hair loss on the head and hair growth in unwanted areas. Thank you.
