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…   Dana: My 8 year old niece lives in a Northern state and gets very itchy, irritated skin in the heat and has since she was about 3. In the summers it is almost impossible for her to enjoy being outside because she gets heat rashes or eczema type reactions and gets so itchy. Her pediatricians just say she has sensitive skin and give steroid cream to help, tell her to stay indoors, and have no further advice. They have done skin allergy tests with none found. If it's connected at all, she and her dad both have constant sinus fullness and drippy nose. What could be causing symptoms like this? Is there anything she can try without testing first to keep costs low?     Tricia: Hi Dr Cabral, after two years of fighting with myself and trying everything, I'm considering trying a GLP, very low dosage. I know you don't recomm

Thanks for all you do. Ive been a regularly viewer of your podcast and your work along with Equilife is incredible. 2 part question, regarding your website with all your research into cancer.

If you've ever started working toward a goal, felt like nothing was happening, and wondered if it was time to quit, today's episode may change the way you think about progress.     On today's show, I explore why most people quit before their results have a chance to appear, and why progress is rarely as linear as we expect.     I'll break down why plateaus are a normal part of the process, how to measure your inputs instead of constantly focusing on outcomes, and why making small adjustments can help you move through periods when progress seems to stall.     So join me on today's Cabral Concept 3853 to discover why you shouldn't confuse "not yet" with "not working," how to create your own six-month "no quit window," and why the breakthrough you're waiting for may be closer than you think.     Enjoy the show, and let me know your thoughts!   - - - For Everything Mentioned In Today's Show: StephenCabral.com/3853 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Commun

I was wondering if the hydrogen tablets are just as good as the machine you use? I want to save for it, but until then, are the tablets just as good?      Michelle:  My son and daughter-in-law are 20 weeks pregnant with their first child and just found out their unborn baby has Cystic Fibrosis. They are extremely health conscious individuals with food, exercise, sauna, yoga and meditation and are curious how to begin navigating this new diagnosis from a functional medicine perspective once the baby is born while also working with their CF medical team. You've answered one question about CF several years ago stating to be cautious with mucus causing foods and be careful with food combining. Do you any other thoughts you feel would be helpful?      Maria: You're an amazing person. Keep sharing y

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…   Bettina: Hi Dr. Cabral, I'm a 46‑year‑old woman in perimenopause. Two years ago an ENT confirmed slight hearing loss in my left ear. I was asked to return for follow‑up but haven't done so. My grandmother developed early hearing loss and needed a hearing aid around age 40-50. I've never had repeated ear infections, though the ENT noted small spots on my eardrum ( i think it was). I'm self‑conscious about hearing aids at my age, and I'm concerned about EMF exposure from modern hearing aids that connect to apps. I would appreciate your thoughts. Thank you so much for your thoughts.       Ali: Hello Dr.Cabral, is magnesium supplementation always necessary? Based on Cronometer, I get about 600mg of magnesium from food alone (mainly soaked and pressure cooked legumes to minimize phytic acid and from avocados, potatoe

Any suggestions on how to resolve this loss of pigment? Thanks!!       Anonymous: Hi! I am 34 years old.
