    08/11/2026 | 16 mins.
    Living a longer, healthier life isn't just about supplements, exercise, or following the perfect diet. Sometimes, it comes down to something as simple as making sure you're consistently eating the right foods.
     
     
    Research has repeatedly identified one particular food group as being strongly associated with longevity and a lower risk of several major health concerns. And while it may not be the first food that comes to mind when you think about living a longer, healthier life, the research behind it is surprisingly compelling.
     
     
    On today's show, I break down the research behind this longevity-promoting food and share 7 reasons why it may be one of the most important foods to include in your diet. I'll also share simple ways to incorporate more of it into your daily routine, even if it's not one of your favorite foods.
     
     
    So join me on today's Cabral Concept 3840 to discover the #1 food consistently linked to a longer life, the 7 reasons it may have such powerful health benefits, and simple ways to get more of it into your diet.

    3838: Kidney Stones, Sugar vs. Sugar Alcohols, Oak Processionary Caterpillar Exposure, Thyroid Medications & Protocols (HouseCall)

    08/09/2026 | 13 mins.
    Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend!
     
    I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks…
     
    Maria: Hi, thank you for all you do. You're just an amazing person. My friend had a painful kidney stone in the Er , doctor said it was so close coming out per the images, gave him some morphine we went home next day no pain so at that point, we thought he passed it. A month later the same thing , after images they saw that it got stuck in a comfortable place, so they had to do a procedure to get it out. Meanwhile, he was having stomach issues, diarrhea, couldn't eat, and stomach hurt. Then his mind started racing then he had anxiety. They are giving them pills to take for the pain and then now they're giving him anxiety pills. He's never had stomach problems since the kidney stone happen. What can we do next? Thank you!!! 
     
     
    Bryan: Hi Dr. Cabral. I'm assuming this is a question you've been asked before or least know the answer to but I wanted to ask you something on sugar. If you had to choose between added sugar or sugar alcohols (Erythritol etc) being the worse of two evils which one would you pick? I thought the answer would definitely be added sugar but I've heard a number of health "experts" in this field talk negatively about sugar alcohols. Just curious to get your take and clear up the issue once and for all.  
     
     
    Bettina: Hi Dr. Cabral,I'd like your recommendation on what to do if someone is exposed to the hairs from the oak processionary caterpillar (Thaumetopoea processionea). This species has unfortunately spread to Denmark, where it normally doesn't exist.Contact can cause: Skin: Caterpillar dermatitis with intense itching, redness, and blisters. Eyes: Painful conjunctivitis. Respiratory system: Coughing, throat irritation, and in rare cases asthma‑like breathing issues.What would you suggest supporting or doing after exposure? Thank you so much.  
     
      
    Richard: Hello Dr. Cabral, thank you so much for doing your daily podcasts. All the listeners including myself learn so much from them and the information you provide is invaluable for us to help ourselves and our loved ones. Over the years I've incorporated what I've learned from you & I can feel that I'm slowly getting better. I'm pretty sure that soon I will put my autoimmune disease into remission and finally heal for good! I just have a quick question. I will be taking the Vinco thyroid glandular again soon and I was wondering if it can be taken with things like florafilm, proteolytic enzymes & probiotics while maintaining its full effectiveness? I take the latter 2 daily and I would like to continue while adding the glandular. Is there anything that it can't be taken with? Thanks so much!

    3837: Cannabis & Anxiety, CBO Protocol & Liver Mass, Environmental Allergies, Microdosing CBD & THC, Smelling Smoke (HouseCall)

    08/08/2026 | 18 mins.
    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: 
     
    Amanda: I am perimenopausal and struggle with sleep, ADHD, and anxiety (among other things). I would like to use cannabis (where legal) to help with my sleep struggles, anxiety, and ADHD symptoms. Is THC, in any form, considered a valuable supplement?  
     
     
    Anonymous: Good morning doctor, always looking forward to your "ask cabral" Housecall podcast every weekend. Been doing research on the gut-liver connection, an interesting study correlated gut dysbiosis with hepato-carcinoma. I know you dont provide health/medical advice. But if someone, hypothetically speaking, wanted to address the root cause of an (unknown) liver mass (biopsy results pending), with elevated liver enzymes.. Could the CBO protocol work. if not.. what foods can optimize the gut. Currently using Cermonial Organic Matcha green tea, Mediterrian diet (EVOO).. melatonin. Any other good ones? Thanks P.S thanks for introducing me to the wonders of Sulforaphane (broccoli sprouts)!  
     
      
    Struggling in Texas: Hi! I did allergy testing at the allergist: no foods but SO MANY environmentally. Grasses, trees, molds, cockroaches….what direction do I go? My dr said shots but don't love that thought. I have to do something because we have allergens year round and I constantly have so much inflammation from it. Thank you!   
     
     
    Elizabeth: Hello Dr. Cabral! I wanted to know what your thoughts are on microdosed Gummies that contain CBD and THC? So thankful for you and for your teaching.  
     
     
    Vicky: I'm so thankful to have discovered you Dr. Cabral- appreciate your generosity + support for all of us out here pursuing wellness. Do you know what causes people to smell smoke when there isn't any? It had gone away for months, since I started down your protocol roadmap actually, but recently a cold turned into the sinus infection (which it often does) and the smoke smell is back on and off again. So far I've completed all protocols before mold, and half of mold. Mold detox put my immune system under a lot of stress which contributed to my getting a sinus infection for the first time since starting my detox journey. I have many system issues like many of the people you help - nervous, hormonal (neurotransmitters), immune, and digestive to name a few. Can't wait to hear what you know!  
     

     

    Thank you for tuning into today's Cabral HouseCall and be sure to check back tomorrow where we answer more of our community's questions!
