For years "Adrenal Fatigue" was a taboo topic to discuss… Conventional medicine denied its existence and nobody wanted to hear that you were  tired, achy and feeling down … But today, with  state-of-the-art lab testing  and decades of science backed research, we know Adrenal Fatigue ( HPA Axis Dysfunction, ME, CFIDS ) does exist and it comes in any different forms… That's why on today's #CabralCon...

Plastics have been around since the 1950s, but over the past few decades, they've grown in use and toxicity… Today, almost $20 billion a year is created in plastic products, which not only pollutes our environment but can disturb the systems within our body… Turn into today's #CabralConcept 985 as I expose how hormone-disrupting plastics are hurting your body – Enjoy the show! - - -   Show Notes &...

In a world that glamorizes the medical specialist we often times miss the answers that are disabling people from getting well, losing the weight, or feeling alive… What we need are more "generalists" that can see how the body is interconnected – Every organ affects the next and without this "wholistic" knowledge a true "cure" can never be found… You don't fix imbalances by masking the symptoms wit...

We live in a world where the environment is not conducive to balancing female hormones… The plastics, heavy metals, EMFs, and other toxins create estrogenic effects that can lead to weight gain, headaches, low mood, fatigue, irregular cycles, and many more health issues… Plus, the day-to-day stress of managing work, family, and relationships can lead to stress on the adrenals (HPA axis), which onl...

At least the US we tend to look at foods, diets, or supplements as either all good or all bad…   However, like most things the truth usually lies somewhere in the middle…   And no truer words have ever been spoken when it comes to talking about caffeine…   For one person caffeine can be a highly beneficial and positively improve brain cognition and other areas of the human body, while at the same...

Lowered metabolic rate or low thyroid symptoms have so much more to do with your health than just the inability to keep the weight off… Other symptoms such as brain fog, low mood, fatigue, low body temperature, decreased drive & ambition, as well as hair loss can all be explained by a lowered metabolic state… The good news is that all of this is reversible when you know what the root causes are th...

My goal is to help people to understand that feeling sluggish, having brain fog, and not being able to lose weight are not "calorie in, calorie out" issues… Metabolic issues almost always stem from a hormonal or toxicity-based imbalance… This explains why some people can eat two to three thousand more calories than someone else their same size, but yet they don't gain weight… Tune into today's #Ca...

Both men and women contain estrogen in their body, but having too much of this hormone can spell disaster in terms of health, weight, or mood issues… That's why it's important to understand the delicate balance we need in order to ensure we don't overload one particular hormone, which can disrupt all of the rest… And believe it or not, there are multiple outside environmental factors that can incr...

Helping people recover from debilitating low energy, anxiety, brain fog, or adrenal based issues has always been a passion of mine… Many years ago I suffered from the same health issues and it was like living life as a zombie… The funny thing is that now with every passing year, I actually have more energy, drive, and vitality than ever before! Part of this has to do with how I reset my HPA Axis (...

If you suffer from low mood, high cholesterol, poor muscle tone, weak connective tissue and bone, or aging skin/hair/nails, it may be a sign that your natural growth hormone levels are declining… With age, everyone's internal production of growth hormone begins to slow down and with it goes our vitality, strength, mood, and suppleness… The good news is that we know ways around this phenomenon incl...

In order for you to get well, lose weight, improve your mood, and wake up everyday with plenty of energy your hormones must be optimized and balanced… If they're not, that's when we start to see a decline in cognitive ability, mood, metabolism, and being able to maintain a healthy weight… The good news is that it's very easy to look at which hormones may be out of balance and how they could be eff...

Often times we talk about how someone just needs to exercise more and eat less to lose weight, but what happens when that doesn't work… Do they just do more of that same thing? Or do they need to look elsewhere for their weight loss or slow metabolism dysfunction? As a Functional Medicine practitioner I can tell you first hand that there are specific reasons why someone may have a slow metabolism...

Rather than pretend that it's not harder for women to burn body fat at the same rate as men I'd rather share with you the reasons why that is... I figure that if you understand why men lose fat easier than women you can then use these "bio-hacks" to your advantage and try to ramp up your own natural fat burning systems... For more information on the 5 factors of why men burn more fat than women tu...

About 20 years ago I suffered from one of the worst cases of "adrenal chronic fatigue" you could have… I was diagnosed with Addison's Disease and given no hope for recovery – except to continue to take a drug based cortisol for the rest of my life… I decided that I didn't want to live this way and as a result I went searching for answers… What I discovered along the way changed my life, led to my...

Often times we associate weight gain or a difficult time losing the weight as the only thing our fat burning hormones are good for… However, your levels of metabolic hormones have a far greater effect on your overall body (and mind) than you may have ever thought about… They effect everything from your mood, to where you gain the weight, to how you view yourself… Check out today's #CabralConcept 5...

In the very near future you'll hear more about the power of Functional Medicine Testing in the media… Although it's been around for decades, unfortunately many people haven't been exposed to a resource that very well may be the catalyst that helps them achieve their wellness, weight loss, or anti-aging goals… The reason I'm so passionate about this is that Functional Medicine lab testing is what h...

In order to get well, lose weight, or enjoy increased vitality it's important to master your metabolism… One of the best ways to do that is to prevent snacking or overeating by learning to balance your leptin and ghrelin hormones… It is the delicate balance between these 2 hormones that allows you to feel normal hunger signals, but also turn off excessive food cravings and binge eating… Tune into...

In my practice I see people suffering from both adrenal fatigue and low thyroid issues, but often times they may have been previously diagnosed incorrectly… Today, what I'd like to do is share with you the specific "traits" of how adrenal fatigue differs from low thyroid even though many of the symptoms appear very similar… For example, someone with adrenal or chronic fatigue can be tired all day,...

One of the most misunderstood and incorrectly diagnosed health conditions is low thyroid… Having a poor functioning thyroid can lead to a slow metabolism, weakened immunity, brain fog, fatigue, depression, and host of other health issues – The problem is that your thyroid is most likely not the cause of your current problems… Tune into today's #CabralConcept 369 to find out how it's the adrenals t...

By now we've all grown accustomed to the mantra that "if a little is good, a lot must be better…" But, when it comes to adrenal fatigue, or being chronically tired nothing could be further from the truth when referring to exercise… Tune into today's #CabralConceot 201 to discover my recommendations for working out when you're suffering from fatigue of any level… Enjoy the show! - - -   Show Notes...

I've always explained to my weight loss & body transformation clients that it's a lot easier to swim upstream than it is to fight the current… This is why I recommend not just trying to "eat less & exercise more." Using that old school weight loss method will only leave you more hungry and frustrated in the long-run… Plus, my goal for you is to have you elevate you metabolism all day long even whe...
