The Cabral Concept

The new buzz around "lectins" has certainly taken the nutrition industry by storm, but is it all hype or is there some truth to it? The low-lectin diet asserts that it's the "sticky" proteins in most #plantbased foods that cause everything from intestinal discomfort to brain fog to leaky gut to auto-immune conditions... The question is are we looking at the wrong enemy in terms of foods, or is the...

I believe the idea of "bucket lists" has begun to take a turn for the worse and is becoming synonymous with focusing on your mortality... Instead, I believe creating a bucket list should actually be viewed more as a motivational tool for visualizing how much more life you have to live! And as a result, I recommend that everyone construct multiple "buckets" for every stage of their life... Tune int...

One of the major issues with our current healthcare system is the fact that we don't consider people "unwell" unless they have a gross abnormality on their blood work labs... However, waiting until people are sick we are negligently allowing people to walk around with nutrient deficiencies (that blood work can't pick up) and toxicities, which later cause the dis-eases we're trying to prevent in th...

It's not that shorter workouts are just easier to fit into your day or keep consistent with, but it's the fact that they are actually better for you that's changing the game... Exercise physiologists, personal trainers, and strength coaches have come to better understand how the human body functions under stress (exercise) and how it recovers... With this new knowledge more advanced workout progra...

We tend to look at disease as something that's out of our control and that it just happens to us... Conventional medicine and the media has brainwashed us into thinking it's simply "bad genetics," or a normal process of aging... However, none of that is true and holds very little weight when you begin to understand the "pathology" of dis-ease in the body and why we become sick or overweight uninte...

Last week I detailed what you should request for your annual blood work (and why), and I still stand by the importance of running those labs, but... Running just blood work will never catch everything... For example, it's near impossible to figure out gut dysfunction (GI issues), allergies, heavy metals, cortisol, and other hidden imbalances through your blood work alone... This is why Functional...

Have you ever found yourself in a downward cycle where everything seems to be going the wrong way... During these times it's easy to play the role of the victim and complain about our current circumstances... We've all been there and we certainly feel justified in our complaints since after all we've got a lot worth complaining about! However, in the long-run this cycle of complaining actually hur...

I'm a big fan of not always stressing yourself out with the "micro" or the details of designing a workout program... I'd rather have you start to move your body, have some fun doing it, and enjoy all the mental and physical benefits that come with exercise... However, at some point you may want to take your workouts to the next level and when that time comes one of the best ways to do that is by l...

I'm excited to bring you an in depth interview with one of the leading experts on "Intermittent Fasting!" Intermittent fasting (IF) is easily one of the hottest topics trending in the fitness & nutrition field right now... The problem is that there is so much misinformation out there, as well as conflicting reports on how to properly complete a fast... To put an end to the confusion, during my con...

Running your blood work every 6-12 months should be mandatory in order to "catch" serious health issues quickly... The problem is that not all MDs or PCPs will run all the lab tests you should be looking at... For example, most MDs will run your cholesterol, but they overlook homocysteine and CRP, which when all elevated can spell serious trouble for inflammatory heart disease... Of course, all of...

Many people think happiness is elusive and that it's not something they could possibly achieve for any sustainable amount of time... I used to feel this same way until I began to use a simple system that all begins with realizing when you are at your best and feeling great... What I've found now is that life isn't supposed to be perfect all the time, but I believe we can feel happy the majority of...

For many people, when they think about beginning (or re-starting) an exercise program it all just feels too overwhelming... You may think about the stress of having to find a gym, plan a time into your calendar to workout, and figure out what you're even supposed to be doing in the first place in order to not waste your time... If this sounds like you, a client, or someone you may know, it's impor...

What to eat for breakfast is easily the most understood and challenging meal to get right... But, it hasn't always been this way - Up until the 1500's and then later in the 1920's breakfast had always been consistent with healthy living and following the natural digestive processes of the day... The problem is that when modern life and big corporations get involved with the media our version of wh...

Viruses are on of the most overlooked reasons for poor health, fatigue, acne, low mood, brain fog, auto-immune, and inflammatory health conditions... What starts as a seamlessly harmless microbe ends up entering your system and then replicating until it literally wears down your immune system... The virus can then move into your actual DNA and bury itself so deep that it can be difficult to eradic...

It's a 3 step system that has been passed down for thousands of years through oral and written teachings: The 1st step is becoming crystal clear on exactly what you desire... The 2nd step is now transforming those thoughts into actions that will ultimately lead you to your goal....
