  • 3733: Breast Biopsies, Detox & MRIs, Orange Hands & Feet, Nicotine Use, Minoxidil & Hair Growth (HouseCall)
    Apr 26 2026
    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… Eve: God bless you for all you do. I had a routine mammogram in early 2025, followed by a bilateral breast ultrasound, they recommended 6 month monitoring due to multiple small cysts/masses (I have very dense breasts). I was advised to continue to monitor with ultrasounds every 6 months. At my March 2026 follow-up, they recommended a biopsy because one mass at the 9 o'clock position increased from 1 cm to 1.5 cm. For context, I had a benign biopsy in 2024 in the same breast (10 o'clock) and regret doing it out of fear. I feel that poking and probing can be more harmful. I'm worried about unnecessary procedures but don't want to ignore anything serious. Would short-term monitoring (repeat ultrasound in 3 months) be reasonable? The tech seemed inexperienced, could measurement error be possible? Eve: Hi it's me again, I wrote in yesterday and after I spoke to my PCP about my hesitation on getting a breast biopsy, she was supportive and said why don't we do an MRI instead to be certain instead of poking and probing before knowing what it really is. The only thing is that it would have to be with contrast. What do you think? Less invasive, more real answers, but the contrast makes me anxious. Can I do a detox if I opt for the MRI vs the breast biopsy? Ty Doc. Anonymous: Hi! Can you help provide advice on how to help with orange hands/elbows/feet? I've tested extremely high for beta carotene. I'm not sure why as I wasn't eating bushels of carrots, just trying to get a diversity of plants in each week but guess I steer towards vegetables with higher concentrations (squash, dark leafy greens, broccoli etc). I've practically eliminated all sources of it, but still seems not to improve much. Any advice would be helpful as it is embarrassing. Thanks! Anonymous: Hi! What are your thoughts on using clean sources of nicotine treat things like long COVID, chronic fatigue, brain fog etc.. Thanks! Nikita: Hi Dr Cabral, After 4 years of heavy hairloss, I finally corrected my iron-deficiency anemia (through prescription iron pills- only thing that worked). 6 months later my hairloss has finally slowed down a lot. However, I'm not noticing any type of regrowth. I'd love to get some of my density back after those 4 years of bad hairloss. I wanted to know your opinion on starting minoxidil for a temporary period of time just to wake up the hair follicles? I never took it before bc I don't want to commit to it forever, but do you think it could work for this case and then maybe I can stop it and the hair won't fall out again because now Thank you for tuning into this weekend's Cabral HouseCalls and be sure to check back tomorrow for our Mindset & Motivation Monday show to get your week started off right! - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/3733 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?

  • 3732: GLP-1 Tone Pills, Limited CBO Protocol, Melatonin & Cancer, Unmodified Potato Starch & Metabolic Health, Discontinuing TRT (HouseCall)
    Apr 25 2026
    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: Brenda: My adult son is very interested in purchasing the GLP-1 Tone. Unfortunately he cannot swallow pills very well especially capsules. Can these capsules be opened up and put in water and still be effective? Stephanie: Hi Dr Cabral! I am currently on a certain medication (plaquenil) for my autoimmune that I would like to eventually come off of. I really want to do the limited cbo protocol which I tested for with a health coach about a year ago but wasn't able to do the protocol right yet. Since I am on this medication right now, I am unable to do the citracidal drops due to the grapefruit. How else would you recommend me doing the limited cbo? Are there other alternatives to GSE that I can do to try and heal my gut and get one more step closer to putting my autoimmune in remission and getting off this medication? Thank you for all your help, long time listener Tricia: Hi Dr. Cabral - I love starting my day, 7 days a week with you! Please work forever :). You are so helpful. This is regarding Podcast 3693 when you spoke about the 2 nutrients needed for cancer defense (p53). My question is about melatonin. I sleep fairly well for a 56-year-old post-menopausal woman. How much melatonin should I start with and can you mention the risks? I know not all supplements are good for everyone. I have heard wonderful things about melatonin and cancer. On the downside I read if you take melatonin your body will stop producing it faster on its own. Is that true? Should I wait until I'm 70 to start? I'm going to start adrenal soothe too. I feel at my age without the balance of estrogen & progesterone we need more adrenal support. Any advice is appreciated. Darren: Good day Dr Cabral. I'm seeing an increase of naturopaths saying a teaspoon of unmodified potato starch nightly leads to increase butyrate which then improves intestinal barrier integrity, lowers inflammatory signaling, enhances insulin responsiveness, and influences metabolic and immune pathways throughout the body. They say the resistant starch consumption improves glucose metabolism, reduces inflammatory markers, supports beneficial microbiome diversity, and contributes to better metabolic health. Taking it nightly further supports these effects by aligning gut bacterial activity with the body's natural overnight repair processes, including lower insulin levels, increased growth hormone release, and reduced cortisol activity. Do you agree or is it hogwash? Darren: Hey, Dr. Cabral. Me again. I've seeing several renowned biohackers and trainers say it's a falsehood that once you start TRT, you've to continue using it for life. They say if you happen to be the 1% of men over 35 who TRT is not for (for exceedingly rare reasons), you can simply desist, and within a few (2) months, your body will have returned to its natural testosterone production levels pre-treatment. Some basic precautions while you are experimenting with TRT will help you recover quicker should you choose to stop your treatment, but even then, those who do the sloppiest TRT recover quite quickly even if they don't use a traditional PCT (Post-Cycle Therapy). Is this based on new info or is it also hogwash?
