1800: Skin Breakouts, Add Muscle, IFR Sauna EMFs, Tempeh, PANDAS, Yoni Egg (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:

Chris: I have candida in the gut, throat and tongue as well as skin breakouts. Currently follow a vegan diet, no grains, just fruits and vegetables. When I go on a juice fast for 3 -4 days, while doing enemas, skin always clears up. When I reintroduce foods, breakouts come back. This leads me to believe that maybe I have low stomach acid, thus the reason I thrive when juicing, I am not able to fully digest the food. I know you've mentioned HCL supplements and Digestive enzymes help. Will the HCL actually increase stomach acid long term, even after I stop taking the supplements or will they only help while taking the supplements? And, will digestive enzymes become a crutch and my body could become dependent on them?

Mo: Hey Dr. Cabral, what are your thoughts on trying to add muscle with a low carb, high protein, semi high fat diet? I have not tried to gain muscle in almost a decade so I'm very novice and Ive been hearing and reading that a high protein, high carb diet is the best for gaining muscle (also easiest). Any tips? I feel like I'm in your shoes when you first started, I'm looking to go from 180lbs, 6'3 to 195 - 200lbs, naturally. I'm not in a rush either. The last time I did this was when I was 19-21 and unfortunately I went the anabolic route and got up to 255lbs but thats not the type of body I want this time. I know it will take a much longer time now. I also know you will say to listen to your TT episodes which I certainly have but I will again, however, any additional off the top of your mind advice would be greatly appreciated!As always, love your work and everything you do for the community.Cheers

Kathryn: I know you recommend Infrared Saunas as a means of detoxification. Are there any concerns with EMF?

Imogen: If one is avoiding fermented foods while healing the gut (as recommended by my health coach) would this include Tempeh that is COOKED? Or apple cider vinegar that is added to a broth? I might be entirely incorrect but was thinking perhaps the bacteria would have been killed in the heating/cooking process... (or maybe not...) you would be the best person to ask! Thank you for sharing all your knowledge

Berna: Good Afternoon,Our pediatrician, albeit without formal diagnosis, treating our 6 yo son for PANDAS. We are also exploring homeopathic treatment options for our child. Do you work with any PANDAS patients?Thank you,Berna

Samantha: Dear Dr Cabral,Thank you not only for your willingness to share your knowledge but also for your genuine passion to want to help people. You're a rare example to our youth that it's possible to attain success by working hard, following your passion, and conducting business the right way as opposed to one driven by greed.I took your advice and ran the big 5. I discovered things within these labs that have been causing my health issues for the past 10 years! I HIGHLY recommend to anyone listening to lose the skepticism or debate and run the labs! It's expensive but will save you so much money in the long run....pay now or pay later for "sick care." It's the best investment you will ever make.Now to my question. My pelvic floor therapist recommended a yoni egg for a tight pelvic floor which could be leading to chronic hip and back pain. She says I hold tension there like some hold tension in their shoulders. I debated a long time before submitting this question but I really wanted to see if you had any insight.Thank you so much in advance!
