The Cabral Concept

Why is it that some people eat well, exercise, and live a healthy lifestyle and still get a cancer diagnosis?
 
 
If you've ever wondered why this happens, today's episode dives into the science behind it and offers a clearer understanding.
 
 
Cancer isn't caused by one single thing.
 
 
It's multifactorial, with genetics, environmental toxins, chronic inflammation, infections, and lifestyle all playing a role, and even a healthy body can be affected.
 
 
So on today's Cabral Concept 3674, I'll break down all the factors that can contribute to cancer, explain why it isn't just your genetics that matter, and share practical strategies to help protect your health.
 
 
Enjoy the show!

Why is it that some people eat well, exercise consistently, and still struggle to lose weight?
 
 
If you've ever felt like your body is fighting against you instead of working with you, today's episode may provide the missing piece.
 
 
Emerging research suggests that fat cells don't just store energy they may also act as a protective buffer against chronic inflammation.
 
 
That means your body could be swelling existing fat cells or even creating new ones in response to internal stress, toxins, hormone imbalances, or immune activation.
 
 
So on today's Cabral Concept 3673, I'll break down the research behind how inflammation disrupts fat-burning hormones and share practical strategies to lower inflammation, so your body no longer feels the need to hold onto protective fat.
 
 
Enjoy the show!

Most people associate uric acid with gout, but that's only part of the story.
 
 
On today's show, we break down how elevated uric acid can quietly drive inflammation in the body for years, contributing not only to joint pain but to a wide range of other health concerns.
 
 
When we understand what uric acid is and how it's created, we can begin addressing the root causes rather than simply managing symptoms.
 
 
By identifying early warning signs and key lab markers, you can take action before it progresses into more serious disease.
 
 
Join me on today's Cabral Concept 3672 to uncover the hidden dangers of uric acid and learn simple, natural strategies to keep your levels in check.
 
 
Enjoy the show.

Real world success rarely follows a straight line?
 
 
On today's show, we break down why progress doesn't move in a perfect upward trajectory and why plateaus are not a sign of failure, but a normal and necessary part of growth.
 
 
If we think of success as a staircase instead of a straight line, we can better understand how lasting results are built in layers. First, you create a strong foundation. Then, when progress stabilizes, you make small, strategic adjustments to move to the next level, without abandoning the habits that got you there.
 
 
This applies to any area of your life. Instead of regressing when results slow down, you stabilize, reassess, and layer in the next step for sustainable, long-term success.
 
 
Join me on today's Cabral Concept 3671 to learn how to work with the natural rhythm of growth, and finally stop getting discouraged by plateaus.
 
 
Enjoy the show.

Thank 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…
 
Pati: how do you lower and keep cholesterol low during early menopause and when you have Familial Hypercholesterolemia. I have 315 total /240 LDL/70HDL/50 Trig. I am 5.4 height, 120lb and gluten free and dairy free for 13yrs and eat very low carbs and sugar. Never taken statins because they make my joints hurt but had high cholesterol for years but 300 was my highest. What can I take that can help and what should i eat. Thank you Pati 
 
 
Anonymous: Hi Dr. Cabral. Just wanted to confirm. Podcast 3576 reviewed a PubMed study that gave a minimum daily dosage of 10,800 FU to obtain desired results. The podcast gave me the impression that your supplement exceeded the 10,800 FU/day since only the 20,000 FU number was given. However, 3 plus does per day would be needed? Please can you clarify? Proteolytic Enzyme supplement. Natto Serving dosage on label is - (20,000 FU/g) 150mg My understanding is Natto amount is 3,000 FU 20,000 FU/g x .150g =3,000 Is this correct? 
 
 
Ashley: Hi Dr. Cabral, I have a detox meal timing question for you. When I did my last set of the big 5 labs, my health coach told me that it would be OK for me to eat at 8 and 3 instead of 11:30 and 6:30 as I feel much better when I fuel my body in the morning. When I don't, I feel ravenous in the evening. However, the admin in the FB group disagreed and said I shouldn't do that. Can you please clarify and let me know how big of a difference it makes to eat later instead of earlier? I feel like if eating earlier in the day helps me actually stick to the foods I'm supposed to eat and I'm still fasting for the same lengths of time that  it would be OK. If it's a bigger deal than I realize, will you please explain the reasoning? Thanks so much! 
 
 
Tommy: Hi Dr. C, I'm an IHP who's come a long way with healing, but I feel stuck for the remainder. I've attempted a detox only once in my life. After the 4th day I was so wiped out that I couldn't really even work. I've also got high heavy metals but the protocol causes me such histamine reactions (even at a lower dose) that I just can't see it through. I feel stuck, I play for a soccer team but even training is too hard on my nervous system and leaves me wired. Maybe I should just try gentler detox like sauna and castor oil packs but I'm not sure it will be enough, and the sauna may just deplete me further. I've suffered so much with health and I'm in a better place, but still much work left to do. 
 
 
Lou: Hi Dr. Cabral, I am 15 and listen to your podcast every morning on the way to school with my mom. I was wondering, what would you say are your 5 favorite books? They dont have to be health books. thanks, Lou
