How could one chemical cause so much damage in the human body?   The answer goes back to a breakdown in the ability to process, metabolize, and eliminate a compound called glutamate…   Some people simply aren’t as equipped to handle this natural and artificially created food chemical, which is why no one food is right for everyone…   On today’s #CabralConcept 2020 I’d like to share with you how gluten and glutamate cause learning disorders, auto-immune, anxiety, mental health,...

I know many people brush off the thought of choosing organically grown food over conventionally farmed foods, but there really is a big difference… The naysayers will point out the fact that the macronutrient composition is the same with both foods (which it is), but what they leave out is the other fact that many conventional herbicides and pesticides are poison… For greater details tune in to today’s #CabralConcept 1629 to find out about glyphosate dangers and the complete 2020 dirty...
