1107: Amalgam Poisoning, IgM vs. IgG, Pet Lab Testing & Supplements, SIBO Shake, Possible Hernia, Neuro Disorder, Avascular Necrosis, Tolerance Induction Program (HouseCall)

Kyle: Hi Dr. Cabral. I am a veterinarian in Colorado and have been listening ever since you were on with Jay Ferruggia. I really like your approach and have implemented your recommendations/ideas for my own health with much success. I want to be able to use this approach with my patients as a veterinarian but have a hard time finding information on the veterinary side. I have a multi part question. I was reading a book called "canine nutrigenomics: new science of feeding your dog" and while I like a lot of what they say, they did recommend one of the author's tests to check for food sensitivities. They use IgM and claim it is better than IgG. I know you disagree for people. Do you have any thoughts on this. I don't like that fact that its the authors test at the lab she owns. I have heard negative things about other test at this lab. What do you do for your own dog? Do you think we could use functional testing for dogs? Do you think the detoxing and your other philosophies can be applied to dogs? Some things I think are easy and I do for my own dogs such as avoiding plastics, using probiotics, omegas-3's, etc. The more I think about it the more I worry that our "classic" recommendations and traditional training may be making some things worse. Thanks 

Rachael: Is the Daily Nutritional Support Shake save on a SIBO diet?

Taylor: Hi, I’ve been more of a recent listener. But I love the Cabral Concept! I’ve recently purchased the Rain Barrel Effect and am currently reading that. I’ve been wanting to do more with my life and finding my passion and career and it was almost a sign that Dr. Cabral mentioned his integrative health practitioner certificate or health coach certificate on his show. I was looking for more information on this but didn’t seem to find what I was looking for on the website. Anyway someone could point me in the right direction? Thanks!  Taylor 

Leon: Hey Dr. Cabral. Great show. I've been doing the programs in your Man's Guide book and been getting god results. I am 5'6, 154 pounds, and really ripped. The issue I have is on some abdominal exercises like reverse crunches or even on single arm rows I get a sharp pain in lower abs area. It kinda moves and renders me immobile for a while. I stretch it out but it makes me really wary. Is this common or could it be a hernia or something? How do I work around it? Keep up great work 

Jessica: Hi there, I have been diagnosed with a vestibular disorder. I am doing vestibular exercises, chiro and seeing a naturopath (whom I love). I have done allergy testing (the acupressure one) and have a lot of snsitivities. I do find eating clean definitely helps a lot and It is better but I still can kick it. I am in Canada and other then my chiro (who is a neuro specialist) there are only western medicine practitioners all of which either say I just live with it or they send me off to the next. Do you or anyone in your team have any advice on another pathway or a practitioner east of Toronto that specializes in vestibular disorders? 

Joshua: I’m a long time listener to the Cabral concept and a big fan. I’ve recently been diagnosed with avascular necrosis of the femoral head.im only 32 years old and do not want a total hip replacement. I was wondering if there’s anything I can do naturally to avoid this. Thank you for any advice you can give and for all the knowledge you spread on a daily basis. 

Lauren: My daughter is 2.8 and has food allergies to eggs and peanuts. We’re starting a tolerance induction program (TIP), has similarities to OIT but diff. The program is one year to 1.5 years depending on the number of allergens and severity. The doctor that does that program puts the kids on Zyrtec or something of that form, but not Benadryl (masks reactions) for the entire length of the program plus something like Flonase. It’s a low dosage daily.the reason for this is to keep the immmune system calm. We have our first appointment coming up (intake) but haven’t agreed to anything yet. I want my child to be cured of these food allergies (serious we have Epi pens not just sensitivity) but I’m nervous to have her take these medications daily. Food allergies as you know are scary and serious, but I don’t want to hurt her more in the process by taking a medication daily. What would you do if it was your child and how dangerous is this to her organs? Your input on the whole topic is greatly appreciated. I listen to you often and love the information you share.You’re level of knowledge is very motivating!
