1205: Smart Device EMFs, Mycobacterium Avium, Ears Blocked, Childhood Trauma, Female Hair Loss, Ovarian Cysts (HouseCall)

Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows!

This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track!

Check out today's questions:

Krista: I have two questions regarding EMF exposure : 1. Do you think the EMF exposure from a fitbit (or like device) is worth it if it improves a pre-teen/teen's activity level? Any specific recommendations? 2. How do I know if a sauna is safe regarding its EMF output? I have read a few articles from those who have personally tested various saunas with widely different results. I'd like to follow your advice on taking advantage of the health benefit of infrared saunas, but am confused as to how to make sure the EMF levels are safe. Thanks as always!

Chris: Can you point me in the right direction in terms of chronic MAC infection of the lungs? My mother was diagnosed many years ago but things have escalated quite a bit in the past few months. She has a constant dry cough, fatigue, lack of appetite, etc. Her escalated symptoms began a few months after moving to a different house. I suspect something about the new house may be a factor.Thank you, Chris

Beth: Hello Dr. Cabral. Love your podcast! I have learned so much from you and I continue to learn daily the more I listen. I'm hoping you can help point me in the right direction with this...but I have been dealing with clogged ears for the last several months. A bit of backstory to assist, back in August of 2018 I decided to take some strong antibiotics (Flagyl to be exact) in order to combat a bacterial overgrowth (please note I am health conscious and so I rarely got sick or had to deal with any health related issues prior to this). During the time I was taking the 10-day antibiotics, I got sick with what seemed to be bronchitis. While sick, I took a flight for a vacation we had planned and my ears refused to pop. It was as if the congestion from the cold or whatever I had was pushed into my ear canals. Ever since, not only have I been sick multiple times (one time resulted in IV fluids, steroids and more antibiotics), but my ears have never recovered. I know that taking the antibiotics was a horrible idea, no matter how desperate, because it destroyed all the good bacteria I had in my gut and left me completely susceptible to everything. I went to the ENT and was told my hearing was perfect and that my ears were clear, yet I still can't pop them. I feel a bit unbalanced and my ears feel full and muffled. And if I eat anything inflammatory, my right side starts hurting. On top of that, I have ongoing "post-nasal" drip feeling in the back of my throat, which again, worsens with inflammatory foods like sugar. Any suggestions you may have to help me heal are greatly appreciated! Thank you for all you do!

Tony: Hi Dr. Cabral, Love your DESTRESS protocol and all your work, however, what seems to be missing is a focus on trauma.What are your thoughts on those who's health have plateau'd because of childhood trauma that has conditioned such strong subconscious beliefs, that even the Monday Motivations aren't resonating with these conditioned core beliefs?There are modalities like EMDR, but I'm curious on your take and what you see in your practice, as I put Cabral and his team as the gospel of truth on health, wellness, and spirituality :) Keep up the fantastic content!

Annette: Hi Dr. Cabral.Thank you for sharing your wonderful knowledge in the world. I would like to know some information regarding hair loss. I'm considering ordering some of your tests but don't know which one would be appropriate for me. I'm going to be 45 years old and in the last few years I've lost maybe half of my hair... the loss continues... and every time that is my hair wash day I just get so scared and anxious thinking "how much hair I will lose again today!" I do not take birth control. I'm vegetarian but do not eat eggs. My TSH level is 1.42 and my C-Reactive Protein level is 0.8 and total Protein level is 7.1 I would love to get some guidance and advice as to what I should do and what might cause my hair loss issue. ( Am I premenopausal?) It's to a point that I can not leave my hair loose. Thank you so very much for your help and time.Annette

Joanna: Hi Dr Cabral I have a few questions.1. What would you suggest for ovarian cysts and what can cause this? 2. Iv been having upper left abdominal bloating for a few months now usually after eating or if im a little stressd around where the stomach is situated i think i may gastritis or bile reflux. I have candida and bacterial overgrowth high histamine issues and currently doing the CBO. What do you suggest i can do to heal this naturally. I want to avoid a endoscopy if i can? 3. What are your thoughts on slippery elm in healing the gut and even treating gastritis. thanks im currently doing IHP and post regularly on the facebook groups. Many thanks for all you do joanna from australia :)
