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:    Alicja: Hello Dr. Cabral, I hope you're doing well. My question is about dental sealants. My kids' dentist recommended them for my 8 yo daughter and I blindly believed it was a good advice. Later he recommended them for my younger daughter, but this time I looked up what are dental sealants and it turns out it is plastic. Since my older daughter has them already (on 4 of her molars) I'm struggling to make a decision which is less of two evils: leaving the sealants because the damage has already been done, or should we have them removed, risking that some plastic will be absorbed by her body during scraping the sealants of her teeth?                                                                                                                                               Holly: Hi!

Do you ever feel wired, anxious, or restless at night even when you’re exhausted?     The reason often comes down to catecholamines, the stimulating brain chemicals (dopamine, norepinephrine, and adrenaline) that keep your mind and body in overdrive.     While these neurotransmitters are essential during the day for focus, motivation, and energy, when they remain elevated into the evening, they disrupt your ability to relax, lower stress, and fall into deep sleep.     On today's show I explain the real reason your body struggles to switch off, the lifestyle habits that can push your nervous system into overdrive, and the simple rituals and natural nutrients that can help calm your system, lower nighttime cortisol, and improve sleep quality.     So join me on today's Cabral Concept 3513 to find out how to calm catecholamines for deeper sleep.
