2256: Chronic Regional Pain Syndrome, Fillers in Supplements, Smelly Body Odor, Intracranaian Increased Hypertension, Cavernoma, Sickle Cell (HouseCall)

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… Tennea: Hi Dr Cabral, I'm currently doing your IHP training. I wanted to know if you have any advice on the condition called Chronic Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) I had an accident 4 years ago leaving me "permanently disabled" in my left arm, hand, and shoulder after breaking my elbow (terrible triad). And I ended up with this nerve chronic pain CRPS. I also developed a anaphylactic reaction to seafood last year (I LOVE seafood), I believe it's related to the CRPS. I would be eternally great full for your advice or thoughts on this. Warm regards Teena Lara: Hi, dr. Cabral :) I'm hoping you could talk about the "extra" ingredients in supplements.. like different fillers, additives, preservatives..? Which ones should we be careful about, which different names do they use for the same crappy substance, for example, citric acid is in lots of them, also lactic acid, etc. What kind of a capsule (vegan) should it be and so on? Would love to buy extra clean supplements but sometimes it's really difficult to get them, especially with the crazy prices.. Thank you! Happy healing, everyone! Rachel: Body odour. I sometimes find that I have very very strong body odour in my armpits. It's not the "normal" BO smell. It is pungent but more like a strong gasoline smell. When it happens it's almost as if I can't wash it off. Showering and washing my armpits helps lessen it, but the smell is still there. Any idea what the cause could be or how to rectify it? Thank you! Debra: I have mast cell disease,, hereditary alpha tryptaemia syndrome, and Intracranaian increased hypertension which causes debilitating migraines. I have done your detox and despite the debilitating migraines getting worse I stuck it out. I did the hair migraine erase test and I had to stop all supplements recommended for now. I was reacting to everything. Especially the shakes high in vitamin A. Do you have experience in IIH aka pseudo tumor? Would love to work together further. I'm a huge fan and desperate to heal.thanks, Debra Nick: Hi Dr. Cabral! I have two questions for you — one, i recently had a snowboarding accident where i hit my head and got a CT scan and MRI which showed a Cavernoma in the back upper outer edge of my head. Do you have any natural remedies advice for controlling / improving it? i've had no symptoms and it was found incidentally. (i'm 25 years old) my second question is — they told me i will need to monitor it probably 1-2 times a year with contrast and no contrast MRI. Should i be concerned with the gadolinium metal that's used to contrast the MRI? if so, would you have any alternative suggestions (i.e. recommending no contrast) or any detox solutions you'd recommend if you think it's necessary? thank you! Karen: Hi Dr. Cabral - I recently found your practice and I love what you do. My question is - my son joined the navy and had extensive blood work done. He discovered that he has a high percentage of sickle cell trait. He was 1% from the navy's limit. Are there health issues associated with a higher percentage of this trait? Thank you so much!
