3809: Drinking Spring Water, Estrogen Balance vs. Estrogen Support, Children & Chron's Disease, Non-Toxic Tampons, Detox & Hormones (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:

Brent: Hello again, just thought of this and wanted to add some insight to the acid reflux problem, I didnt even think about it but I've been drinking water from a spring for many years now and after some time the water jugs I use start to get algae build up and I have to clean them. Point is algae is high pH and could be throwing off my stomach acid making matters worse, plus the algae feeds good and bad bacteria so I'm sure that didnt help while I was on the cbo protocol... also gonna run the parasite test because i didnt know you could get them from spring water. And gonna start adding lemon or lime to my meals and see of it helps. Again thank you for everything you do and I look forward to hearing your opinion.

Trish: Hello Dr Cabral -- Can you please explain the difference of when to take your estrogen balance or estrogen support? I'm post-menopausal and estrogen dominant. I'm on your progesterone but thought I needed to take an estrogen supplement as well. Thank you!

Jaimie: Thank you for giving us hope when others say there isn't a cure. My 11yr old son was diagnosed with severe Crohn's 6 months ago. No GI symptoms or food triggers or stomach pain. Presented with anal fissures, mouth sores and not growing. He was put on remicaid infusions and his calpractin went from 2500 to 59 in 5 months. CRP levels are normal now and he is gaining weight and growing. Dr doesn't believe in leaky gut or other deficiencies could be part of the issue when I asked about running other labs. What tests would you run if this was your child. I have a hard time accepting infusions are his only solution for the rest of his life. His body is fighting something and the remicaid is just masking the root issue. In addition to the toll it is taking on his liver amongst many other things.

Anonymous: Hi Dr. Cabral - Is there a non-toxic or at least "less" toxic brand of tampons you can recommend? Thank you!

Anonymous: Hi dr Cabral! Thank you for this show! I had my Dutch test done last year. It showed 24hr free cortisol just at the high marker and the metabolized cortisol low just below the normal range marker. My phase 2 estrogen metabolism methylation marker was also low at 1.6 while the beginning normal range marker is 2.5. Does this all point to a detox pathway issue? What would you suggest? My estrodial was also just below the normal range which surprised me since I have very heavy and painful periods, my practitioner at the time said it might have just been an off month, which I remember was a weird month since my period was actually very mild. That is disheartening since the test is so expensive. I know this test is a year ago, but I've always had these questions and results in my mind. Thanks!
