2795: High Fasting Glucose, Fasting & Hi...

Kelsi: hi dr. cabral! i started tracking my blood sugar because i wanted to see if coffee was knocking me out of a fasted state. turns out my fasting glucose levels are elevated (consistently 100-110 upon waking and after prolonged fasts). i won't go into everything i already do health - wise but i am very active, have no energy issues and eat well. i run a little anxious, high cortisol, etc. i have normal insulin and A1C levels. would the stress, mood and metabolism test be your go to here?

Kelsi: hi again dr. cabral! i know you have a million podcasts on blood sugar but i didn't find any on myparticular question. what're your thoughts on longer fasts for someone who consistently has slightly elevated blood sugar levels (100-105)? even after 24-36 hour fasts my blood sugar will remain around 100. curious on whether or not fasting would be helpful in this situation. lastly, is if possible for someone's 'normal' blood sugar to just be higher than the standard?

Nana: Hi Dr. Cabral, Thanks to your content and your team's support, i have been able to resolve a lot of my pre existing conditions and i am currently now doing the cbo finisher after completing the cbo protocol to heal my gut. However, one thing i havent been able to resolve over the years is my liver detox capabilities. I have trouble detoxing food chemicals like salicylates and even though taking the daily activated multivitamin helps, i am still unable to eat high salicylate foods. I can't even get through the equilife detox even when i try to titrate. My salicylate bucket fills really fast and i get super inflammed all over again. How can i support my liver to detox better? Should i minimize fat like ghee and red meat? What can i do to finally heal?

Bettina: Hi Dr. Cabral. Thank you for a great podcast and products. My husband is from Italy and when we gp there to visit family we are typically there for a minimum of 7 days. This means my mother in laws amazing pasta dishes lunch and dinner. What should I do in order to keep weight off? I bring my nutribullet so that I can make a smoothie with the DNS in it. But my mother in law is amazing in the kitchen and it is not well seen to day no to her food or even to eat very little food as there is often more dishes and they are amazing :-) I bring the digestive support but what else should I do? Even if I eat a smaller portion of the pasta and the eggplant lasagna etc. I am quite sure I will gain weight as this has happend each year so far. Thank for you advice in advance.

Nicole: Have any natural recommendations for broken capillaries on the face? Feel like I have tried it all except laser at this point. Thank you!
