    3719: Multiple Daily Bowel Movements, Beneficial vs Pathogenic Gut Bacteria, Children & Allergies, Natural vs Synthetic Testosterone, Natural Electrolytes (HouseCall)
    Apr 12 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… Bob: Toke the Bacteria and Parasites Stool Test, show very high Inflammation markers, Lactoferrin 200 µg/mL < 7.3 Calprotectin 1534 µg/g < 80 Lysozyme* 3810 ng/mL ≤ 500 I stop all supplement except DNS before the test and continue for over a month, by The time I got the results I went from watery diarrhea to a more formed stool, less urgency and went from 10 bowel movements to 3- 5 daily. With no bowel movements after 11:30 am until early next day. What are your thoughts? Thank you for all you do! Allen: Dear Dr. Cabral: One bout of food poisoning completely destroyed my microbiome, and now I have to take probiotics for the rest of my life just to feel normal. How come beneficial bacteria don't seem to colonize and thrive as well as pathogenic bacteria? You would think that the probiotics would eventually restore the microbiome — especially over a period of years — but they never do. I always hear that they're transient and can only help you as long as you keep taking them. Why is that? Thank you. Jasmine: Hi there, thanks so much for providing this option to ask questions directly to you! My son is almost 2 and has dealt with eczema since about 16 MO, has a reaction to peanut butter that causes it to worsen, the sun, heat, and water (of any sort but especially pools/chlorine) in the summer really flare it up. He is now having early spring allergies to the pollen for the first time. Would you give me a detailed layout of what you would do if he was your child? Testing/supps/protocols etc. I really want to resolve this for him and get his immune system functioning at his best! Thank you so much for all you provide-I completely fixed my gut through your protocols about 10 years back and haven't looked back!! Chelsie: Hi Dr Cabral, My husband was told by his DR. he had low Testosterone and was put on TRT about a year ago at about a 1.5 mil a week. He usually takes the full dose one time a week which I feel REALLY fluctuates his hormones and doesn't seem healthy. Through learning things through my own health journey I am worried about his does being so high. He is 6 foot 4, 280lbs and built like a NFL line backer but his Dr. seems to be fine with it as long as he is feeling good. I worry about the long term effects this might have on him the rest of his life. Is it possible to get him off of synthetic TRT and get his natural test up on it's own? Darren: Good day Dr. Cabral. I've adhered to your Himalayanor or celtic salt with lime/lemon or ACV with water on mornings. And adding a bit of salt to larger water bottles given active job and training. However, I saw Dr Jason Fung, kidney specialist, on Twitter saying "you drink a lot of water, you will pee it out. That's what your kidneys do (speaking as a kidney specialist). I drink plain water (yes, without salt) almost every day of my life, as did virtually all humans for the last, say, million years. No, I am not worried about 'dehydrating' myself by drinking water. ". This was in response to someone recommending adding salt to water in morning as plain water w/o electrolytes can dilute sodium levels and make hydration worse. Is Dr. Fung right or??

    3718: Body Composition & Muscle Definition, Unknown Virus, Support Healthy Blood Pressure, Hammer Toe, Vata Body Type & Fasting (HouseCall)
    Apr 11 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: Selena: Hi doctor Cabral, I'm looking for some insight into my body composition. I'm a 47-year-old female currently strength training 6 days/week (30-min Upper/Lower split) and averaging 20K steps daily. My intake is ~2200 kcal (150-180g Protein / 200g Carbs). While I'm lean and can feel the muscle underneath, I'm lacking visible definition. Am I potentially over-training, or do I need to adjust my intensity/recovery to see better hypertrophy? Thanks so much in advance for your answer! Jen: Any advice! Sick w/something middle of December (maybe subclade K as it was the week that was apparently the pinnacle week in UK) , GP prescribed Penicillin as sent a pic of throat & he said maybe Strep. Didn't work so Clarathromycin which made me better but then Oral Thrush which went on weeks treated with Daktarin/Fluconazole (had to beg for it) but had 3 ever increasing doses. Now I have been told it's Burning Mouth Syndrome. Tested for Full Bloods, Diabetes & even HIV (all normal or Negative for the latter). This has been 2.5 months of hell. Saw a Oral Maxillofacial specialist on Friday who said I needed to brush HARD TOOTHBRUSH with Kingfisher (Inc Sodium Lauroul Sarconsinate) & that I'm just having Menopause! I lost my @#*& ! Bloods due for Vits/Mins. Taking vit A-Z , alpha Lapoic. Mohamed: Hello Dr.Cabral. I enjoy watching your weekend house calls and your in-depth responses are fantastic. My question is 2 part.. if you could do 3-4 things to support healthy blood pressure (Dad's on higher side, 160/80s). What would the 4 things be? For a late 60s man. 2nd question is regarding Intracellular nutrient analysis lab? It states " The INA (Intracellular Nutrient Analysis) directly measures the effect of specific micronutrients on the ability of T and B lymphocytes to reproduce when stimulated with a mitogen (i.e., mitosis generator)". Thoughts on this? Thanks! Maria: Dr. Cabral, thank you for all you do for everyone. Your amazing! Can you talk a little bit about hammer toe, curl toes, etc Is this curable. I didn't find anything in your podcast. again thank! Have an amazing blessed day. Sonny: Hi Dr. Cabral, thank you for everything you do. I'm an IHP2 and had a question about my morning routine. I wake at 4:45am and do tongue scraping, oil pulling, meditation, breathwork, and drink ~500ml lemon water with sea salt. I strength train from 6:00am–7:00am (about 30 min mobility + 30 min strength), then walk outside 35–40 minutes, followed by ~25 minutes in an infrared sauna and a shower. By then it's around 9am and I'm still fasted. I usually finish dinner around 6–6:30pm, so it's a long overnight fast. As a Vata body type, is this too long given the morning activity? Would drinking my protein smoothie around 8am during the sauna blunt the sauna benefits? Also, would drinking essential amino acids before my workout be helpful, or would that break the overnight fast?
