The Cabral Concept

A brand new #FridayReview is in today and I'm happy to share with you some of this week's best wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging products and research! But before we get to those, I've added a "June Challenge" to spice up your workout routine and get in your best shape ever for this summer! Next, we'll be talking about this week's nutritional supplement review, which is centered around an olde...

We've been told for decades that the way to become more flexible and prevent injuries is to stretch... However, new data has repeatedly shown that stretching for the sake of stretching does not improve flexibility, nor does it prevent injuries... It turns out, though, there is a specific way and time to stretch that does work and it can be done in as little as 30-90 seconds... For details tune int...

Transforming your body has so much more to do with how and what you eat, than just counting calories alone... The reason for this is that not all foods are created equal and to make things more complicated some foods don't combine well together... And, if those poor food combinations are eaten at the same meal it can cause bloating, toxic build up, weight gain, inflammation, and disease... But of...

Your liver is "hands down" the most important organ in your body... If it starts to weaken even just a little, every other organ has to work much harder and your blood begins to become a toxic cesspool leading to headaches, fatigue, skin issues, aging, and disease... This is why it's so important to be working on strengthening your liver with whole foods on a daily basis... A few weeks ago I share...

I doesn't matter who you are, every one at some point or another has suffered pain and hardship in their life... Sometimes this pain seems to last forever though, and we can find ourselves in a position of very little hope... It's at these times when we need to assess what we are doing to pull ourselves out of this challenging position... On today's #CabralConcept 479 I will help you take some "in...

We've got more amazing questions from our community and I'm looking forward to answering those right now on today's show: Jim: I work in the nuclear power industry.

We all know that exercising is good for our health, but sometimes a workout can leave you sore and dragging the next day... When this happens, it can often be a sign that your body is missing something... This can be a lack of certain vitamins, amino acids, protein, or other factors, which help to rebuild your body and increase muscle protein synthesis (MPS)... Tune into today's #CabralConcept 475...

Whether you're suffering from a low metabolism, brain fog, poor mood, or you've been diagnosed with hypothyroid or Hashimoto's, today's show is for you! By popular request, I've been asked to share what I use in my practice to help people heal their thyroid disorders naturally... The interesting thing about this topic is that the thyroid (and your metabolism) needs very specific nutrients in order...

Every form of medicine believes it is the best and only form of health care to use in world... Each one cites examples of how it has helped millions of people while excluding the virtues of all the others... What I've learned from studying and interning in clinics and hospitals all over the world is that every form of medicine holds in it the power to heal - the problem is that you need to know wh...

It's great to have goals and it's great to want to achieve something that you've never done before, but there's a reason why most people (greater than 9 out of 10) never achieve their goals... The reason for this is that they lack a certain system of moving them forward into their "goal achievement" state... This goes beyond developing a plan and taking action. It's a prerequisite for anyone tryin...

Crunches are one of the least efficient ways to work your abs... Will they work? Yes, but so does long-distance running for weight loss - However, in those exercises take more time than they're worth... The good news is that there are a handful of exercises you can do that will not only tighten and trim your waist, but they'll also boost your metabolism at the same time (something crunches can't d...

Most people have been told it's simply not possible to spot reduce their belly fat... They believe that in order to shrink their waistline they must wait until they lose all their other body fat first... This has been ingrained into our thought process, since the old belief was that belly fat was the last to go after you had lost all the other weight... And while this still holds a lot of truth, t...

It's very rare that any nutritional supplement has such a noticeable effect the first time you use it... Typically, it takes weeks for the effects to be felt, and even then they are subtle... This is not the case with CBD Oil. You feel it the very first time you try it... It feels like a wave of relaxation and relief over your body, which is why it has such a great healing effect on everything fro...

We all have goals in life... And yes, having goals is important, but the goal achievement does not always provide the happiness you thought it would... The reason for this is that we think that one day when we reach our goal, our life automatically changes. The problem is that this simply isn't true... However, on #CabralConcept 465 I explain that there is a way to set goals, achieve them, and get...

With so much conflicting information in magazines, online, and amongst fitness professionals, it's difficult to discern who's right and what to follow... The good news is that when it comes to transforming your body, "toning up," and reshaping your figure, there is an actual science to it... On today's #CabralConcept 461 we'll go through many aspects of body transformation training and discuss if...

More and more people are becoming aware that we live in a very toxic world… In the United States alone there are well over 77,000 man-made synthetic chemicals in the environment – most of which have been shown to cause disease and cancer in the body... In my opinion, it's no longer an option to regularly #detox your body from these harmful chemicals, so that you can live a long healthy life... How...

If you're going to invest in products to improve your health, you may as well maximize their results by fine-tuning your regimen... One area where this is crucial is the when, where, and how of taking nutritional supplements... Believe it or not, some supplements should ONLY be taken in the morning or exclusively at night, and some will have NO effect if swallowed with food... These are the types...
