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…

Kara: Hi Dr. Cabral, I've had trouble falling asleep lately and seem to wake up around 3 AM almost every night. I've cleaned up my diet and cut caffeine after noon, but it hasn't helped. Could this be related to cortisol or blood sugar dips during the night?

Lori: Hi Dr. Cabral, I have seen 2 different conventional doctors to ask about hormone testing. Each one said that because I was more in the peri-menpause stage of life that testing my hormones would be difficult and that my hormones levels could be drastically different day to day and therefore it would be hard to provide HRT based on one test because it could be so different if you tested on a different day. I would love your thoughts on this and how the Equilife test might provide more accurate results.

Erin: I get pressure headaches (maybe sinus headaches) when the weather changes. I live in WA state and in the Fall it can be nice and sunny one day and then gloomy and rainy the next. I have always felt that the change in pressure and weather has impacted my headaches. Would there be an explanation for this?

Jennifer: I have a question about grounding. Does putting your feet in a body of water help with grounding? Ocean, lake, river etc…?

Sami: Hi Dr. Cabral. I tried to reach out to you via Instagram because my question doesn't pertain towards a health issue, but more of an inquiry. Since I didn't hear back from you I thought I'd try here. Currently enrolled in L1 IHP and loving every second of it. I hear you repeatedly mention that women make up a majority your practice. Two brilliant woman that I've been following and learning from the last year are Dr. Stacy Sims and Dr. Mindy Pelz. The research they have done pertaining women's health is amazing. Have you ever considered doing a podcast with them? I feel as if between all 3 of you a discussion could be a tremendously helpful podcast for everyone. I (along with many other via FB group) would love to hear you guys collaborate on ideas to help women live be their best self's!

Thank you for tuning into this weekend's Cabral HouseCalls and be sure to check back tomorrow for our Mindset & Motivation Monday show to get your week started off right!

That's what I do every single night, and I get off the chart sleep scores. And I'm not saying that to brag, because honestly,
0:42.7	I was a complete insomniac for the first 27, 28 years of my life. Products like magnesium,
0:49.0	aschragonda, fossil lestherine, which are in the adrenal soothe, were game changers for me.
0:54.3	Adding a little melatonin for me, especially as I'm getting older, great for the brain, great for the nervous system.
