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:
Michele: My mother has myasthenia gravis - can she take a probiotic instead of a PPI. For acid relux
Steve: I have a BMI of 35 and I'm active. I'm 47 years old and need to lose the visceral fat. What's is the easiest way to lose the visceral?
Anonymous: Hi, dr. C.I have a question about low blood pressure.We always hear about high blood pressure but what are all the reasons for low blood pressure and is it also dangerous?I've always had low blood pressure &the last time I had it measured it was 91/64 so the nurse was worried &asked me if I was ok.Is it also connected to heart rate?Oura says my resting heart rate has lowered over the past year, now my baseline is 48 (where the line on the readiness tab is full), sometimes my resting heart rate is 47. It was elevated a year ago &when I asked my doctor, they said around 60 is normal for resting heart rate, so is 47 really too low then? My HRV varies between 30s and 50s, so not very high. I'm contributing it to hot summer temperatures as well, but not sure so I would love your input, thank u
Anonymous: Hello, hope you & your family are doing great! I checked your shows on irish sea moss & what I got from it is that it's not something you would recommend as there are so many other supplements you would suggest before it. My question is, is it in any way damaging considering it contains carrageenan? Is it different if this is natural carrageenan (since it's apparently derived from irish sea moss)? I'm puzzled because you say we should avoid carrageenan but you don't say that about Irish Sea moss & to me it seems like we should avoid it? I read carrageenan can cause intestinal inflammation, digestive discomfort & a weakened gut barrier but in alkaline diet the irish sea moss is everything & is supposed to help heal the gut… so confusing! That's why I'm asking, I really trust your opinion.
Sienna: Hi Dr Cabral - three questions please that seem to have different approaches. (Avoiding Dr. Google) BEST time to take probiotics - does it *actually matter? Depend on the strain? Listened to your podcasts but some refer to on waking (empty stomach) others with food... any general guidance please? Proteolytic Enzymes: 2 "on waking" - empty stomach.. is it ok to combine these with any other "on waking" supplements? Any exceptions? 3. Low Ferritin (21): how long after supplementing could I retest bloods to see any improvements? I know it's not about 1 marker, only Ferritin was LOW. S Iron: 18, S-Transferrin: 2.28, Transferrin Saturation: 31% so the rest "in range"?? does this make a difference? less risk? Iron response has 25mg - would you say that is good dose? thank you!!! Sienna
