Tricia: Hi Dr Cabral - I recently discovered your show about a year ago and I'm so glad I did! You are a wealth of knowledge and I appreciate you helping the community. I'm a 55 year old female diagnosed with spinal stenosis, spondylolisthesis and degenerative disc disease since 2017. Basically, I'm in and out of pain a lot. I stay in physical therapy and try to stay as active as possible. I hate taking OTC pain medicines but at time Aleve is the only thing that will get me through. My question is what do you think about taking NAC supplementation to assist my liver. Any advice is appreciated. I eat a very clean whole food based diet to assist with inflammation. I haven't tried your detox yet but have a 21 day supply. I take many of your vitamins. I love them! Thank you in advance.
Rachel: Dr. Cabral, NO ONE talks about women with “lean” PCOS… insulin resistance seems to be at the root & center of PCOS but I’ve been tested & do not have it… I’m around 20% body fat & very muscular. I was on the birth control pill for about 10 years, when I came off I didn’t have cycle. It was then we found the follicles on my ovaries & I developed cystic acne. Since then I dialed back my exercise, fed more & after 22 months got my cycle back for the last consecutive 6 months. Do you have any insight or advice for someone in a scenario like mine? Will the follicles ever dissipate back to normal? I am 32 & so concerned about fertility for when I hopefully meet my person. What can I do to optimize… if I was your daughter would you recommend freezing my eggs at this stage, all things considered?
Yvonne: Did a search for a previous podcast but didn’t find anything about reversing swollen finger joint by right index knuckle. Assume this was the first of an arthritic flare which has subsided but and the swelling went down from what it was but it won’t go away completely. Is there a way to return to its normal size or is the damage permanent?
