3453: KPV Peptide & Inflammation, Visual Snow, Citrobacter & Parasite Protocol, Clean Water & Traveling, Taking Digestive Enzymes (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… Carrieann: Hi Dr Cabral! I was wondering if you were familiar with Peptide KPV and if you could offer some insight on it and how it works to decrease inflammation in the body. Thank you!! Jannah: Hi Dr Cabral, I've recently been diagnosed with visual snow (not Visual Snow Syndrome), confirmed by multiple specialists and a brain MRI. The symptoms began about a year ago, coinciding with high stress, chronic back pain, and returning to work in a brightly lit (LEDs), newly renovated office. Environmental changes like dimming lights, adjusting my computer screen and using eye-strain glasses have eased my painful headaches; however, I still experience tension behind my eyes and forehead. I understand that this is a neurological issue, so I'd appreciate any recommendations to support my brain health, neurological functioning and visual processing, please. I'm a 39 year old female, generally healthy and active, and based in Australia. Thank you! Tommy: Hello Stephen. I'm an IHP. A year ago I started having dhiarrea daily. My sleep also suffered, waking up in the night unable to fall back asleep even with magnesium/melatonin/breathwork. I had some leftover healthy belly, so began taking 2 morning and 2 night. Everything cleared up, my bowells were perfect , my mind was clearer, my body was calmer. I thought it was the mastic gum that had killed some h-pylori. About 7 days after stopping healthy belly, it all came back again. I've since done a parasite protocol which i had to stop 11 days before the end as I was feeling fatigued. I ran a stool test just before these symptoms and it showed citrabacter friundi. I'm unsure whether to do a parasite protocol again or run another stool test. Appreciate you Kari: Hi Dr. Cabral, I'm struggling to find the best option for clean water when traveling. I don't want to use plastic water bottles and glass options are rare and very expensive. I don't mind for flights and have even used Starbucks water that they put in my stainless steel bottle. I need options if I'm going to stay with a friend for a week and need to have clean water. I have looked at water bottles with filters, but I'm not sure if they're any good. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks! Shawnee: Hey there! I was wondering how long should you be taking digestive enzymes for? I feel great when I take them so I would hate to stop. But I don't want to mess up my system by over using them. Thanks!
