It is going great and I REALLY do feel much better. I recently saw a pulmonologist for raised ACE level. "Most likely granulomatous disease in the setting of prior fungal exposure" per doctor regarding the granulomas on my lungs/thyroid, not sarcoidosis. I am not certain, but have a very strong guess of when I was exposed to this fungus (almost 15 years ago). I currently have a diagnosis of Urticarial Vasculitis and Hemicranial Continua , among several other more common things. I am being treated for both of those from my specialists with Hydroxychloroquine and Indomethacin. My symptoms are well managed. My question for you is - Am I able to shrink or diminish these granulomas so that my body is not always on high alert /other diagnosis diminish?

One of the simplest nutrients in your daily routine may also play an important role in supporting your long-term health.     Emerging research is revealing potential connections between certain nutrients, healthy aging, immune function, inflammation, and cancer risk. But the benefits may depend on more than simply taking a supplement.     On today's show, I'm breaking down new research exploring one foundational nutrient and its potential role in reducing cancer risk, including findings related to advanced cancer and breast cancer.     I'll also explain why maintaining a healthy body weight may influence these outcomes, how this nutrient may support the body's natural defenses, and why testing your levels may be more valuable than simply guessing how much you need.     So join me on today's Cabral Concept 3905 to explore the research behind this important nutrient, what may influence its effectiveness, and how it could fit into your approach to long-term health.     Enjoy the show! - - - For Everything

Could you be getting enough hours of sleep, but still not getting the restorative sleep your body needs?     Sleep apnea affects millions of people and can interfere with oxygen levels, sleep quality, energy, and overall health.

We all have days when we feel tired, stressed, busy, or simply unmotivated.      But when we repeatedly change the commitments we made when we were thinking clearly, we can make it harder to build the consistency and self-trust needed to reach our goals.      On today's show, I'm sharing why making decisions in advance can help you follow through even when motivation fades, and how creating simple non-negotiables can make healthy habits easier to maintain.      I'll also explore some of the common ways we get in our own way when trying to build lasting change, and what it takes to keep moving forward when things don't go exactly as planned.     So join me on today's Cabral Concept 3902 to learn how to stop negotiating with yourself and start building greater consistency, discipline, and trust in yourself.   - - - For Everything Mentioned In Today's Show: StephenCabral.com/3902 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: C

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…   Nikki: Hi! Can you please help me in deciding if I should use the pork liver DAO enzyme or the pea version? I need to run the Big5 but waiting on funds. I have been dealing with histamine intolerance(random hives when lifting heavy objects or tight things on my skin, random itchy hands and feet) and have recently stopped taking metformin after 10 years. I learned through you that it can negatively impact histamine. I was taking it for PCOS but switched to Berberine and Inestitol. Also changing my diet. Doing more exercise. All that to say I would like to try and fix the histamine issues as much as I can until I can run these labs. Side note I believe it is gut related as I also deal with gastritis and recently stopped taking Protonics. No more medications other than Zyrtec for the itching!       Susanne: Some studi

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:    Sam: Hi Doc, Thank you for everything you do to help everyone! I've heard a few biohackers describe taking over 100 supplements a day. Is there a number where even if all the supplements are helpful, it would be too much- perhaps hard on the liver? Or, are endless supplements ok as long as they are all quality ? Thank you!       Larissa: Hello! Just wanted to state how grateful I am that you share your knowledge with the community! My question is regarding iodine deficiency. Aside from not eating seafood, are there other cause? I've noticed that despite supplementing, levels stay low. I read that heavy metals or toxins can bind to iodine, thus causing a deficiency? Would love your thoughts and advice. Thank you for all that you do!       Nicole: Is there any supplements I should take before or

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…   Matthew: Hi Dr. Cabral-I just listened to your podcasts on the Berberine and cancer studies. Thank you for bringing it to us. I was curious if the same results could be seen with Dihydro berberine. I saw the chemical formula in the study was berberine hydrochloride which I believe is the same as the Berberine+ product. Does it make a difference? Do you have an opinion on Dihydro berberine? I am assuming you believe that hydrochloride is superior since it is used in Berberine+. Thank you       Selena: Is it good to followe a Lectin Avoidance Diet?       Anonymous: Good day Dr.Cabral, enjoy regularly watching your weekend "ask cabral". A family member of mine is doing immunotherapy for their HCC (hepatocellular carcinoma). Wondering how to deal with immune-related side effects, so far they are tolerating it bu

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:    Susie: My son is level 1 ASD. He is very high functioning and attends mainstream school. His main issue is his rigid thinking which leads to mis-reading situations and this has a great impact on him socially. He is liked by his peers but is socially excluded and as a 16 year old boy this is tough. We have done years of therapy but are in the same boat regarding this issue…do you have any advice/protocols that may help him if this is a gut/brain issue that effects any potential thoughts or behaviour? He does well academically, is loved and respected by teachers and has recently been elected by his peers and teachers to be a prefect. This situation is very confusing for us as the lack of real friends and social interactions doesn't make sense to us. Please help if you can       Andie: Hi Stephen, I
