Too often we're just labeled by our doctors, society, or the media as being depressed, anxious, apathetic, ADD, or exhibiting "addictive behaviors... Then, pharmaceutical companies would have us treat our natural symptoms of bodily and brain dis-ease with unnatural synthetic drugs that don't actually explain why you feel this way, or how you got here... However, since we know there is always a reason why the body gets out of balance or begins to feel a certain way we can begin to look at your symptoms as to what may be running in short supply... On today's #CabralConcept 669 I want to share with you the missing brain chemical that boosts motivation, drive, focus, and feelings of being alive - Enjoy the show! - - - Show Notes & Resources: http://StephenCabral.com/669 - - - Get Your Question Answered: http://StephenCabral.com/askcabral  

As far as any of us can tell the complete absence of suffering in our life doesn't seem like a feasible goal to strive for... And that's because highs and lows are part of the human experience - It's actually essential to our growth, since it's impossible to appreciate either one without the other... That's why on today's #CabralConcept 668 I don't want you to fight a winless battle, but instead focus on the 1 thing you can control in your life - Enjoy the show! - - - Show Notes & Resources: http://StephenCabral.com/668 - - - Get Your Question Answered: http://StephenCabral.com/askcabral  

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… Let's get started! Megan: Hi Dr Cabral, as always, thank you so much for taking the time to answer my question. I wrote in a few weeks back about my 10 year old son and how we healed his leaky gut which in turn eleviated the eye tics he was having. His most recent Nutreval showed the yeast was elevating some again. We are back on the biociden and the biofilm buster. When you answered my first question about why the yeast returned, you explained how we have to get rid of the bad yeast and replace it with the good yeast. Makes total sense. We had stayed away from probiotics that have saccharomyces in them because it always caused his symptoms to flare. At first I thought the flare was because yeast was his highest sensitivity in the IgG. I realize the sensitivity is to the bad yeast but my question now is could the flare be fro

Check out today's questions: Anonymous: hello! I heard you mention to go backwards to see what has worked in the past. For my acne, growing up I was put on antibiotic "zpacks" 1x a month some years. I was also on 2 separate rounds of Accutane. Both of these "treatments' works while taking them. After I was off the antibiotic or when accutane was done, acne came back. My question is the antibiotic and accutane did different things, so how do i know what is really causing my acne today. today it is on my back, neck and face, sporadic. worst with period but really its all the time. I also ALWAYS break out after a workout, is my sweat dirty? I am healthy and do detoxes a lot. thank you thank you for your advice!  J: Hi Dr Cabral, (Food Sensitivity Question) Thank you for teaching us to take control of our health, research, test and make chang

Although I'm a huge advocate of exercise and the benefits it provides the body (both short and long-term), there is a part that's often missing from many people's routine... And that part is stretching - Namely completing certain flexibility movements after your workout in order to calm the nervous system and begin the healing and recovery process...

Until recently it was assumed that everyone aged according to their genetic code and that outside factors didn't play any role... However, today's medical science has proven that their are a handful lifestyle factors that can slow or reverse the aging process... One of the ways we're able to study these anti-aging factors is by the effect they have on telomere length, which are biological markers that tell us how fast we are "breaking down..."

It's hard to imagine taking life advice from a lobster, but today's analogy may just hold the answer you are looking for... In today's "pill for every ill" mindset we often lose sight of the fact that we don't always need to mask our symptoms... This same mindset holds true when it comes to us feeling a little down, depressed, or anxious... Sometimes what we really need is a reframing of our mindset while being sensitive and respectful to the fact that some people really are going through trying times... Tune into today's #CabralConcept 661 on why lobsters shedding their shell may just hold the answer you're looking for when it comes to taking your life to that next level - Enjoy the show! - - - Show Notes & Resources: http://StephenCabral.com/661 - - - Get Your Question Answered: http://StephenCabral.com/askcabral  

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… Let's get started! Judy: Hi Dr. Cabral, Could you please explain jawbone cavitations, how we know if we have it and if it really causes inflammation that can have a negative impact on our health. I had wisdom teeth extractions about 14 years ago and my naturopathic dentist recommends addressing my possible cavitations in my jaw. I have had some minor gut issues and what I feel to be moderately severe acne that I have been unsuccessful in correcting. Could this be the answer? I am also having my amalgams removed by a dentist using Dr. Huggins' protocol. Any suggestions you may have would be greatly appreciated. Zoe: Hi Dr Cabral, I have listened to your podcast religiously since approx episode 200 - you are my one and only consistent and trusted health guru! Thank you so much for all the help and good you do in your community

By now you've probably noticed that you can have 2 people that are the same height, but have very different body shapes and sizes... These same two people can literally eat the same amount of calories per day, yet one person gains weight and the other loses weight... How can this be? The discrepancy comes from our unique body types, which allow for many varying attributes - one of which is our metabolism...

Today I want to share with you 5 foods that when eaten immediately begin to slow your metabolism and deteriorate your health... The reason they do this is because they can throw off your hormones such as insulin, cortisol, and estrogen... And when your fat burning and fat storing mechanisms get out of whack you end up gaining weight due to the slowing of your metabolic rate...

Although the phrase, "beauty is created from the inside out" is often uttered softly in the skincare world, not enough real merit is given to that fact... The food we put in our body literally decides the expression of our genes, wellness, weight, aging, and even the quality of our skin (and hair)... So when we choose to put high-nutrient quality, skin-nourishing whole foods in our body we are in turn materializing beautiful glowing skin...

I used to believe that I could pull myself out of a depressed state or "funk" by trying to be more Zen or let things just roll off me as if they didn't matter... After all this is what a lot of the current dogma and books preach, but the problem was that this advice simply didn't pan out in the real world... The reason you can't go from feeling apathetic and overwhelmed to Zen is that there are a few other levels in between that you need to ascend up the ladder on in order to reach a higher state of enlightenment or happiness...

Megan: Hello! absolutely love your podcast and have the highest respect for you and what you do! That being said, I need your help! I am having the hardest time losing weight! I have a functional medicine doctor that has run many blood labs along with a Nureval test and long story short, the highlights of all my labs were... *a normal functioning thyroid *a healthy gut with no markers for yeast or bacteria, *low progesterone (2.8 on day 19 of my cycle), *high need for vitamins B6, 7, 9 and 12, *high need for vitamin C *high need for alpha lipoic acid, *high need for vitamin D *low glutathione Is all of this what is keeping me from losing weight? I can't understand how I can have a healthy thyroid, eat a healthy diet high in vegetables and yet I am still not able to lose weight. How do you naturally boost pr

Check out today's questions: Tyler: Hi Stephen, I am an avid listener of your podcast and I'm pretty sure I have listened to almost every single one of your episodes over the last 14 months. I have learned more from you than I have in all four years of my undergrad. I am currently a first-year naturopathic medical students and hope to follow in your footsteps as a naturopathic and functional medicine practitioner. My question for you is dealing with a chronic eczema-like skin condition that has been going on for about two months. I developed this towards the end of a one month long vacation in Europe during the month of August. I am a very health-conscious individual and follow a predominately vegan lifestyle that includes some cold water oily fish and pastured eggs and avoid dairy, wheat, and refined sugar. I have been following your Dr
