Summary

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:

Mike: Doc by the time you read this, I will have completed the big 5.. Can you simplify food combinations of how to eat? Don’t eat this with that. I like to keep things simple. I think people over think & complicate everything when it comes to health. Eat the colors of the rainbow at every single meal. Thanks for keeping it simple for meatheads like me who just want to live happy healthy lives & preform at our best.

Maryann: Hi Dr. Cabral. I struggle with bouts of severe fatigue that is accompanied by a pain/ache in my lower right back. It starts with the lower back pain a day or 2 in advance and the fatigue then begins with me struggling to wake in the morning, like I am trying to come out of anesthesia. This fatigue can last for a day or a week. I have had an xray and MRI for the back pain which have not shown any issues. All of my routine bloodwork is within normal lab ranges. I have Hashimotos (I take Synthroid daily) and am Celiac, on a strict gluten free diet for 15 years. I do not drink alcohol or caffeine, I strength train 4X a week and walk 4 miles daily. I take daily Vitamin D and calcium supplements. Doctors/specialists have no answers. Any insight you have is very much appreciated! Thanks

Milan: Hello Dr.Cabral. I am an IHP and would like to ask your opinion about tiny bruises under the skin. My client keeps on developing those and we can’t figure out the reason. She had some yeast, parasite issues that we have solved already, estrogen dominance that we work on right now, omega3/6 ratio is 4/1, no issues on CBC. She is following an paleo diet and lives very clean. Aside from her estrogen dominance supplements, she also takes activated B, 1g of vitamin C, Zn, Omega3, probiotics, D/K2. What could be the reason for her brushing, am I missing something?

Mike: Dr Cabral, I have a question regarding poor wound healing and and frequent muscle injuries. I am 44 years old ectomorph, 5’10”, 160 lbs, 10% body fat. I eat smoothies with collagen, goat whey, berries, pears, apples, coconut milk for breakfast, vegetarian lunch with chickpeas, potatoes, vegetables, olive oil, hemp, dinner with rice, vegetables, animal protein, olive oil. I exercise 6 days per week for 45 minute (2x strength training, 2x cardio, 2x yoga). According to my calculation I get about 120g protein, 100g fat, 250g carbs, and overall about 7 servings of fruit/vegetables on daily basis, and about 2400kcal. Could frequent injuries and poor wound healing be due to insufficient calories for my body type and energy expenditure? By the way, my omega 6 to 3 ratio is 3/1 without supplement.

Olive: Hi Dr C I’m an IHP2M My question is about adding probiotics to my daily routine & how much is too much. I take a 12 Billion multi-strain probiotic. I’m also exploring a ‘mental wellness’ blend that claims to ‘Optimize your gut-brain axis with a synergistic combo of clinically validated probiotics, prebiotics, and phytobiotics to increase the production of your feel-good neurotransmitters’. Has: Lactobacillus R0052 for positive mood, Bifidobacterium R0175 for stress resilience, Lactobacillus R0011 for gut health for a total of 65 mg. Also prebiotic mix, L-glutamine, L-Theonine, & more fruit extracts. Will this blend add too much bacteria to my gut, and what are your thoughts on the effectiveness of this helping mental wellness by supporting the gut-brain axis? Thank you.
