3417: Deceptive Marketing & Processed Fo...

Dr. Stephen Cabral
About this episode

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: 

 

Patrick: Hey doc. This question is for my mom. She's in her mid 70s and right now just about all her meals are processed food. Her breakfast and lunch are usually French toast sticks and waffles. She believes she's getting her nutrition from that because of the marketing and labels saying how much protein and vitamins are in them. Her dinners are about the same being a frozen dinner with a few vegetables in it . Can you just go over how it's all marketing and this isn't healthy at all. I look forward to your answer so I can listen to it with her. Thanks for all you do     
 
                                                             
Susan: Thanks for all you do. Love your podcasts. My question, you talk a lot about sauna/sweating/detox. I have a real intolerance for heat, It's been really noticeable the last few years. I was never much of a sweater even playing a lot of tennis. I'm more likely to overheat, turn all shades of color, but rarely do I actually drip sweat. On rare occasions, tolerate a infrared sauna, but I usually can't wait to get out of there. Years ago, I did a genetic test and there were indications that I don't detox well. Wonder if thats involved. Also, I have crohns and had a subtotal colectomy just over 6 years ago. It has definitely been worse the last 5 years for sure. I'm a 65 year old female. Can a sauna actually ever be not a good thing to do? Gut health may never be great.      
 
                                                                                                                                
Ann: Quick question, i realize I won't get the answer this time, but I'll be ready for the next time. When you have a virus, coughing, sinus, headaches...... is that a good time to start a 7 day detox? would the detox help get rid of the virus faster? And if so, is it wise to stop the protocol you are on at the time and just do the detox?  
 
           
 
Ann: In November while watching a play I felt a stinging sensation and pain and hotness and swelling on my right hand. I could see a small puncture hole and figured something bit me. I kept checking my throat to make sure it was nothing serious. I took a benedryl the next few nights then forgot about it. Months later I asked my dr to check it had an xray which showed a bone not attached to anything. Doesnt hurt but now its seems to be getting bigger. Its off to the right of my pinky knuckle. Is it possible that my body calcified the poison from the bite or turned into a bone? its crazy! What are your thoughts? leave it? remove it? wish i could insert the xray for you to see.  Thanks for listening, I always appreciate your advice.    
                                                                                                                                                                                       
Ann: Hi Dr. Cabral- I've heard you mention various ways to use both the Universal Binder and the Daily Digestive Enzymes outside of a detox or specific protocols. Can you give us a list of other ways to use them and the dosing (for example how to use the Universal Binder if you think you ate something that isn't agreeing with you, or before a flex meal). Thank you - I and the entire community appreciate you :)
