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…   Tricia: Hi Dr Cabral - after struggling with this decision for over a year I have finally given in to trying a GLP. Yes, I'm nervous but I honestly have lost all hope as I've tried everything, and my willpower continues to fail me. Can I ask while on a GLP can we still perform quarterly detoxes? Also, would you recommend your hair support or thyroid supplement while on this medication? Thank you so much for all your support and guidance.       Tricia: Hi Dr Cabral - sorry me again. I forgot to ask you do you think I should do regular testing on my thyroid and other markers every few months while I'm on the GLP? If I see any markers sliding the wrong way I will immediately stop the drug. How do you support your patients that are on a GLIP?

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:    Christine: Been taking HCl pro-zyme roughly 5 years. Been taking various herbs off and on about 6 or 7 years for different worms, parasites, etc. All this with functional doctor. Is it normal to need HCL that long? Sometimes I am bloated even with HCL. How can I move forward to no longer need it? I am eager to try the CBO protocol but doc says I have another parasite so need to deal with that first. Also, for over a year now, I have had a headache every day. Could the Betaine HCL be a cause? Or just the stress of treating for worms/parasites so many years? Have tried to take magnesium more than once but it makes me groggy the entire next day to the point of being unsafe to drive. Looking for your thoughts on both the HCL and the headaches. Headaches in both temples if that helps.       Anonymous:
