Cabral concept where board certified naturopath and integrative health

practitioner Dr. Stephen Cabral shares how he was diagnosed at the age of 17 with a life-altering illness

and given no hope for recovery. It was only after studying and traveling all over the world

did he discover how to combine ancient iavada healing practices with state-of-the-art

naturopathic and functional medicine to fully rebalance the body and re-energize it with life.

It's time to discover how to get well, lose weight,

and finally feel alive again.

And now here's your host, Dr. Stephen Cabral.

the foods that wreck your metabolism so one of the things that I like to talk

about in my functional medicine practice is that it's not about

the calories that you eat but the quality of those calories and that's because many of the

foods that I'm going to mention today are actually very low calorie.

And some of them are actually marketed as good for you or alternatives to a higher calorie snack or a higher calorie meal. But what I want to do today is really

kind of demystify why there are good foods and bad foods. I know there's a lot of people

out there right now who don't want to demonize certain foods, who don't want to call them cheat meals or those specific things.
