2746: Leaky Gut & Food Sensitivities, Ig...

Sarah: Hi Dr. Cabral, does a leaky gut cause food sensitivities or do food sensitivities cause a leaky gut? Thanks!

Julia: Hi Dr. Cabral, thank you for doing this show and for your honest answers and reviews. I know you offer the IgG food sensitivity testing as part of the Big 5 Labs and I would like to understand your rationale for it as scientifically it has been shown to have very poor value. Multiple studies have now demonstrated that IgG testing cannot be equated to sensitivity in individuals but could rather be linked to exposure to said food or even tolerance. I know there are alternatives looking at changes in blood cells size and structure such as ALCAT and MRT. What are your opinions on those tests and why do you choose to test with IgG?Thank you!

Summer: Hi Dr. Cabral! Wondering if the parasite stool test or any of the tests will detect blood parasites? If not, how can blood parasites be detected and dealt with? Will the parasite protocol wipe out blood parasites as well as digestive parasites? Thanks for everything you do! I love learning from you everyday!

Salman: Hello! Thank you for your post on Alzheimer early detection. Can you please share the info on where I can do the Alzheimer early detection blood test that you referred to?

Kelsi: hi dr. cabral! how crucial is spacing meals out 3 1/2 to 4hrs if you're already doing a long fasting window (18 hrs daily)? just want to make sure i'm getting enough calories in on a daily basis. i stay pretty hungry as i'm very active. thanks!
