306: Does Your Body Feel Stiff, Tight, or Locked Up? (TT)
08/12/2016 Duration: 14minWe've been led to believe that when you're feeling tight or inflexible that more stretching will help... But, what happens when you've been stretching for some time and you're still stiff? Do you just keep stretching more? The answer is no... The truth is that the human body becomes stiff for many reasons and working out is just one of them. Poor posture, mineral imbalance, inflammation, repetitive motion, and poor oxygenation are all overlooked reasons for muscle and joint stiffness... However, the biggest reason you may be locked up is due to nervous system tension, and no amount of stretching is going to get your muscles to relax until you add one missing technique that almost no one uses or teaches... Tune into #CabralConcept 306 for details on the causes of why you feel so tight and how you can reverse this process to protect your hips, lower back, neck, shoulders, and the rest of your body for a lifetime of easy movement - Enjoy the show! - - - Show Notes: http://StephenCabral.com/306 - - - Get Your Que

305: What To Do When Your Plan Fails (WW)
07/12/2016 Duration: 18minAre you frustrated by your results? Have you ever tried the same exact plan a friend, family member, or coworker used to get results, but when you did it your outcome didn't match up? There is a reason for this, and your attempts haven't been failures. Instead, they are proving exactly what the issue is, since if you're on a weight loss or wellness plan and you're not getting the same results, it signals there is a deeper underlying imbalance. This means that doing more of the same is most likely not going to get you a different result. A new, more personalized approach must be taken to undo years of developing this root cause imbalance... Tune into today's #CabralConcept 305 to discover what these hidden root causes are and how to correct them - enjoy the show! - - - Show Notes: http://StephenCabral.com/305 - - - Get Your Question Answered: http://StephenCabral.com/askcabral

304: The 5 Foods That Cause Anxiety and Insomnia (TWT)
06/12/2016 Duration: 16minThe problem with psychology is that we treat the brain independently from the body... And unless I'm missing something, the body has always been attached to the head and vice versa. This means that your psychology (thinking) can affect your physiology (body). And the reverse is also true. If your body is inflamed, stressed, bloated, or lacking nutrients, your brain will receive signals that something is wrong. In turn, your brain sends you signals that appear as anxiety, panic attacks, a racing mind/insomnia, and more... The trick is to always look for the underlying root causes holding you back from becoming well again. Today, on #CabralConcept 304 I share with you 5 foods that can cause anxiety and insomnia, plus many more tips - Enjoy the show! - - - Show Notes: http://StephenCabral.com/304 - - - Get Your Question Answered: http://StephenCabral.com/askcabral

05/12/2016 Duration: 15minAchieving your wildest dreams and goals is actually easier than you think... The problem is most of us don't know where to begin, or we become overwhelmed before we even start, or we're following a misguided plan that leads to nowhere... After awhile, frustration and complacency sets in and you begin to believe your goals aren't worth achieving - which is unfortunate since your dreams, desires, and goals represent the true you... In today's #CabralConcept 303 I'm going to share with you the real hidden reason why you haven't reached your goals yet. I believe this revelation will help you see things in a whole new light and will re-motivate you to be, do, and achieve everything you want in life - Enjoy the show! - - - Show Notes: http://StephenCabral.com/303 - - - Get Your Question Answered: http://StephenCabral.com/askcabral

04/12/2016 Duration: 19minI'm excited to bring you 3 new community questions and one free workout program download today! So, let's get right to them - Here are the community questions for today's Cabral #HouseCall: Carol: First, I started listening to your podcasts a couple months ago and love them and really appreciate that you take time out of your busy schedule to do this. I listened to your constipation podcast yesterday on Colon Cleansing: Colonics vs. Enemas vs. Powders vs. Teas. I think you mentioned you were going to do another podcast on constipation so I thought I'd send my question to you to see if you can help. I have had chronic constipation for as long as I can remember. Even as a young girl I remember having stabbing abdominal pain. I've been to many doctors. Some have patted me on the head and sent me home, some have told me to eat more fiber and/or take fiber. Fiber doesn't help. I eventually went to a Holistic doctor and he recommended that I take Magnesium. Finally something that got things moving! Unfortunately, I

This weekend I'll be revealing a lot of information and methodologies as to how I practice natural medicine and help people with the healing process... So let's get started with the community questions! Alex: Hi Dr. Cabral! I listen to your podcast every day, and have learned so much since I've started, so thank you. I've asked a question before, but I'm back for another! Through messaging on Instagram, someone reached out for tips to eating healthier when their ultimate goal is to gain muscle. Most of my posts are of healthy foods, but he was interested in tips for getting a higher quantity of foods, while still eating foods good for your body. I've also stumbled upon the hashtag #IIFYM (if it fits your macros), and it sometimes contains things like Pop-tarts, chips ahoy, candy bars, etc, just because it fits 'their macros.' I know one of the olympic weight lifters is vegan, so I know a more plant based diet when building muscle is possible, but I was wondering if you had any

Today, we're answering some excellent questions turned in by the community over the past week and I can't wait to share those answers with you - let's get started! 1. Jessica: Hello, Dr. Cabral! Thank you for putting out these informative podcasts. I've been on zoloft consistently for about 5 years now. As a child I was told I had a chemical imbalance and have been a slave to the antidepressant ever sense. Ideally, I would really like to set myself free from it. What would you recommend taking as a healthy/natural alternative to it? 2. Thomas: I know this is a loaded question because the cause can range from low T to lack of blood flow. What are some proven strategies or supplements for ED. 3. Marie: Hello Dr. Cabral! I talk about your podcast daily and have been learning so much since discovering it last summer. My husband lost lots of weight on your 21 day detox and I took the IgG allergy test and have b

I've tried conventional OTC products but they don't seem to have much effect. Is there a diet issue here 3. Reagan: Hi Dr. Cabral! I had a question regarding episode #283 on Tuesday.
