3503: Why Bad People Sometimes Win—and How You Can Too Without Being One (MM)
08/09/2025 Duration: 18minWhy do arrogant or selfish people often seem to succeed while kind, caring people struggle to get ahead? It’s a frustrating paradox we see all around us—but the truth is, it’s not about morality. It comes down to alignment and self-worth. On today’s show, I’ll explain why the world often reflects what we believe we deserve, not just what we’ve earned. You’ll also discover how subconscious blocks, fear, and doubt can hold kind people back, while those with unshakable self-belief continue to move forward—regardless of their character. Join me on today’s Cabral Concept 3503 as we explore why bad people sometimes win—and how you can too (without being one).

3502: C-Section Birth & Vitamin K, Mesenteric Panniculitis, DEXA Scan & REMS, The One-Minute Cure, Sauna Post-Workout (HouseCall)
07/09/2025 Duration: 15minThank 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… Raina: Hi Dr. Cabral! Hope you’re feeling groovy and vibrant on this fine day! :) I recently had a baby.. I was planning for a home birth but things didn’t go as planned. After 100+ hours of labor I went to the hospital and ended up with an emergency c section. My baby was taken to the NICU because of struggling to breathe - she had swallowed meconium which quickly came out and she was then breathing fine. While I was in recovery from surgery and she was in the NICU the med team gave her a vit K shot, despite the fact that i previously told them no injections. Now I’m trying to right their wrongs. Is there anything I can do to help her body after receiving the vit K shot? Also, how could I best support her body after a c section and not getting the benefits of a natural vaginal birth? Thanks!!!!!

3501: Hives on Face, Sensitivity to Tomatoes, Omega-3 Levels, Weighted Vests, Ovarian Cysts (HouseCall)
06/09/2025 Duration: 15minWelcome 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: Ashley: Hi Dr. Cabral, love what you've done for the health industry - so much so that I recently graduated as an IHP L2 and will be attending RHS this Fall! I'm writing as I've been experiencing itchy, stinging hives on my face (typically around the chin, mouth and lower cheek area) for 6 months; once the inflammation on the hives settle down I'm left with what appears to be a whitehead. If popped, the skin becomes extremely dry and peels off within 24hrs. I experienced this once in 2018 after a TBI, but worked with a ND (since retired) that resolved my symptoms w/ gut work. I intend to complete the big 5 to asses what's happening, likely followed by a DCD and CBO protocol but would love your thoughts to ensure I'm on the right track and if you have seen these symptoms before. THANK YOU!

3495: Testing & Cancer, Lipid & Iron Panel Results, MRI & Breast Exam, Alpha-Gal & Protocols, Natural Pain Management (HouseCall)
31/08/2025 Duration: 17minThank 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… Suzanne: Thank you for your time in advance. In late 2021, my husband was diagnosed with Stage IV prostate cancer. He underwent six rounds of chemo along with Eligard injections. After his last scans, whole body and bone, we were told the cancer is "stabilized". He is currently on 300 mg of Nubeqa 2x a day (down from 4 x because I asked about it) and Lupron injections every 3 months. We have consciously changed our diet (no added sugar, no alcohol, no processed foods) and he is doing pretty well, although, he does fatigue and sweat easily. My question is whether you believe that taking a couple of your home tests would be beneficial for him? I worry about these powerful drugs he is being given and have noticed a reluctance from the doctor about reducing his drugs any further. Thank you again!

3488: Low Carb Diet & Lab Testing, Lipoma Removal, Magnesium & H2, High TPO Antibodies, How to Gain Muscle (HouseCall)
24/08/2025 Duration: 18minThank 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… Anonymous: Hi Dr. Cabral, My OATs test came back with normal markers for bacteria and fungus. I was on an extremely low carb diet when I took the test and was wondering if that could cause a false negative. I have taken herbal Antimicrobials and garlic in the past which sometimes eliminates the bloating and brain fog and does so within a few days but only at double doses and only working temporarily. I have a few mild chronic fungal infections, IBS, cognitive symptoms, and MCAS. Do you think the issue is more likely related to an overgrowth or intestinal permeability caused by MCAS? How should I begin treatment since I am sensitive to many supplements? My food sensitivity test unfortunately showed a false negative to all foods.

The hair under my chin and a bit on my neck/cheeks is what gets me down the most. My doctor has checked me for PCOS through bloodwork and said everything was fine. I've recently did your hormone test. Testosterone was great, estrogen good, progesterone was low and cortisol was low. I've been on progesterone support, adrenal energy aswell as DNS, greens, omegas etc for some time now. I also take pumpkin seed oil and saw palmetto. The hair just keeps growing. What else can I do? I've tried countless rounds of laser but it just returns. Is hair in this area always related to PCOS/hormones? Can it just be genetics? Thank you!!
