Dr. Cabral was diagnosed at the age of 17 with a life altering illness. He studied and traveled around the world and discovered how to combine ancient ayurvedic healing practices with state-of-the-art naturopath and functional medicine to fully rebalance the body and re-energize it with life. With the help of many other doctors and mentors, and with his own pursuit to find the answers, Dr. Cabral is now extremely healthy and feeling better every day. He is passionate about teaching others how to remove toxicities and supplement as necessary when there are deficiencies. He is unbiased and open to all different forms of medicines and also a variety of whole food, mostly plant-based diet plans. Ultimately, his philosophy is to help people to heal as a bio-individual with unique needs.
