Let's talk parasites

[Aleesha Sattva]

Okay... so one of the fasters here on this forum is at a retreat and is releasing a huge amount of parasites. So it got me to wondering... how could she not have known she has that many? How can any of know or not know... so let's share our knowledge on the subject.

I've done a little research and this is what I've found:

Symptoms of Parasites:

The word parasite comes from Greek meaning "one who eats off the table of another." Parasites eat and live off the food we consume, even our health supplements. They leave us the scraps. They often make us feel that we are not getting the nutrition from our food or that SOMETHING IS MISSING.

INABILITY TO GAIN OR LOSE WEIGHT

CHRONIC CANDIDA

YEAST INFECTIONS

CHRONIC SINUS OR EAR INFECTIONS

URINARY TRACT INFECTIONS

DIARRHEA

MUCUSY STOOLS

HEMORRHOIDS

ALL SKIN PROBLEMS

DEPRESSION

CHRONIC FATIGUE

CHRONIC VIRAL SYNDROMES

PROSTATE PROBLEMS AND SEXUAL DYSFUNCTION IN MEN

WATER RETENTION (mostly from tapeworms)

CRAWLING FEELING UNDER THE SKIN

FLOATERS

LIVER/GALLBLADDER TROUBLE


And the list goes on and on. We must now be realistic. If 85% to 95% of the population, healthy or sick, has parasites, any illness can be suspected as having as its cause, parasites!

It is now being considered that perhaps 50% of all cancer, diabetes, asthma, arthritis and heart disease comes from parasites!

What do Parasites do to us?

Parasites eat and eliminate wastes every day. They not only eat our food, BUT MANY OF THEM EAT HUMAN TISSUES. They also can eat the protein coating on your nerves.

Endo limax nana is a parasite that has been found to eat the calcium off our bones causing forms of arthritis. Entamoeba Histolytica can get into the liver, the lungs and the brain.

Immature forms of a worm called ROUND WORM, ALSO KNOWN AS ASCARIS, CAN GET INTO OUR LUNGS AND MAY CAUSE ASTHMA.

Many cases of chronic anemia can be from a parasite called HOOKWORM, also known as NECATOR AMERICANUS meaning AMERICAN MURDER. This parasite attaches itself to the lining of or intestines and bites into our blood vessels. It is capable of drinking an enormous amount of blood everyday. Hemoglobin levels as low as 15% of normal have been found in people with chronic hookworm disease.

Experts now feel that even seizures may be caused by parasites or even worms that can get into our brains!

Recently in her book, THE CURE FOR ALL DISEASES, Dr. Hulga Clark speculates that Diabetes can be caused by a worm called a FLUKE which can get into the pancreas and cause it to malfunction. Many researchers, including myself, have seen this to be true! The TV show "60 Minutes" highlighted a story of many children who had bloated bellies and had died of unknown causes. It was found upon autopsy that these children had died of DOG HEART TAPE WORMS. Tape worms that these children had picked up from dogs and had infected their bodies.

It is now being considered that heart disease and heart attacks may be higher in dog owners as these owners have had their hearts infected by these worms. This condition has been confirmed by autopsy.

Another type of roundworm is called whip worms. They inject a digestive fluid into our colon which turns the tissue of our colons into a liquid which the worm then sucks up. Pinworms have recently been found in the uterus, vulva and the fallopian tubes of some of my female patients. This is because when the worm travels to lay its eggs, it can get lost on its way back to the colon. In other words, it travels out of the colon, out of the anus into the vaginal area and gets lost on its way back. It's no wonder women can get rid of their vaginal infects. Worms can be crawling out of the anus carrying bacteria and candida right into the reproductive areas.

And to make matters worse they do this at night while your asleep.

Sound unbelievable? Do you get rectal itching that is worse at night or that ever wakes you up at night? Well guess who's coming to dinner!


Parasites release toxic wastes. These wastes are actually their feces and urine. Parasite urine is practically pure ammonia. Parasite wastes stress the kidneys, liver and immune system.

I got this info from here (http://www.shanti.com.au/body/parasites.htm#Symptoms)

[Aleesha Sattva]

seems to me that anything can be blamed on parasites and there doesn't seem to be any specific (other than anal itching) that is linked to it???

guess a parasite cleanse on a regular basis may be a good precautionary measure...

[Rawhoney]

Aleesha, what do you think about Colonix colon cleanse? I want to get some parasites out of my system. I have the rectal itching, and my skin has eruptions all over with itching. I've tried the Colonix before, but I couldn't finish it, the stuff that came out is what they depict on their site, but only a week in I didn't see the parasites. Thank you in advance.

[Aleesha Sattva]

i have no idea... i've never done a parasite cleanse... other than to add garlic to my juices for an extended period of time - that's all i do to get rid of them.

[Aleesha Sattva]

one of the fasters here took this: Clarkia Parasite Cleanse

[Rawhoney]

Thank you so much Aleesha. I caught that you use Garlic juice in your smoothies in another thread. I'm on my way to Whole Foods to purchase some for later use. And thanks for the name of that parasite cleanse, I hope its cheaper.

Peace

[Aleesha Sattva]

i don't put it in my smoothies, i put it through my juicer - it's part of my juice

[Rawhoney]

Ooops, I'm tripping :o I got the two mixed up.

[bikediva]

Great thread! In my experience, parasites thrive where the body is out of balance; they will not take hold in someone who is not toxic. That said, I understand that if a previously toxic person decides to, say, begin eating raw, the parasites will actually get stronger with the added nutrients! So it is my firm belief that those of us former SAD eaters need to do a cleanse while transitioning.

I can say from experience that the Clarkia is absolute parasite murder. But it must be taken exactly as directed. Also, the colon must be emptying well, or the toxic dead parasites will build up and cause serious problems. Garlic is fantastic, too. So are pumpkin and papaya seeds. It's best to take a combination of anti-helmintics (parasite blasters) because no one thing, not even Clarkia, will kill everything out there.

I, for one, plan to continue to use cycles of Clarkia (25 drops, 3 times daily, for 2 weeks, then one week off) until I'm convinced all my wormies are gone (which may take many more months), even while eating normally. I will also surely eat 4 whole garlic cloves a day, and chew a few pumpkin seeds. Oh, and of course, eat raw. :)

[Aleesha Sattva]

(((hugs))) to your bike... you are certainly the parasite queen! (i mean that in a good way LOL)

[Rawhoney]

Yes indeed this is a fine thread.

Can we get rid of parasites with fasting alone? Or do someone know an affordable colon cleanse I can purchase? I'm seriously thinking to go to a colonic clinic to get the matter out of me. One session a month is all I can afford right now.

[Aleesha Sattva]

if you add garlic to your juicer when you are making your juices it can... (in my opinion)

[streetsurfer]

I've used food grade diatomaceous earth taken in a glass of water daily. Also added was Grapefruit seed extract and/or black walnut extract. I started this because of one irritating symptom-itchyness at the exhaust outlet (trying to put it gently). It cleared up but I also initiated high raw at the time. I still ponder if the itch was yeast or pinworms. I think it should be a multi faceted approach. Liver/colon/parasite cleanse, alkalize yourself (lemon water daily, lots of greens), specific treatments as mentioned (herbal cleanses), avoiding possible exposure (don't walk around barefoot on carpet in homes with pets, in pastures, parks, etc, wash your produce well, don't sleep with pets on your bed), etc.

I've yet to try juicing garlic Aleesha, but keep it up-your are inspiring me. One of these days I will.

thinking in the abstract here.....I still feel we carry some parasites or organisms that are capable of carrying on a symbiotic relationship, in turn doing us some good. What if we were able to double or triple the power of our best electron microscopes? What would we see then. Could those tiny parasites that plague us themselves have a whole world of their own, that goes infinitely toward the small end of the spectrum? Do they get parasites? I believe in infinity, not just in one direction. It's possible. Can we really see down to the absence of matter?

I've heard somewhere there are parasites that devour the plague in our blood vessels. Is that true? And the plaque or buildup in our colon. I've read that in other countries they see particles in our live blood, that are not seen in the blood when looked at with Western medicine methods - cryts or something like that. Seems in the article, it said those are as yet not fully known as to what they are or what they do.

street--garlic in the juice is NOT bad at all. Adds a bit of zip to your vegi juice.

[bikediva]

Parasites, by definition, are harmful. Symbiotic microorganisms are helpful, and yes, the body has plenty--in the eyes, the skin, every organ.

Fasting alone will NOT kill all parasites, nor will eating raw. They adapt. I've stopped taking Clarkia and garlic for 2 weeks, and worms have stopped coming out. (I will start again today now that I'm no longer vomiting.) The other approaches mentioned work great to kill parasites, too. But IMO, anyone who has eaten significant amounts of processed food will have parasites.

That said, some people kill them gradually over a number of months or years with garlic and mild supplements, and never even notice. Doesn't HAVE to be unpleasant or extreme! :)

[streetsurfer]

Thanks for clarifying bikediva. That has me wondering then. Are we wiping out some of the good guys when we work to eliminate the bad? Is that the reason for time on/time off with the supplements and treatments.

[Aleesha Sattva]

i believe we do wipe out good and bad... same with antibiotics and bacteria!

hence why i personally won't do a parasite cleanse per se. rather i prefer to use garlic juices, fast and eat high raw. but we all have to do what needs doing for our own body. bike is so strong... going through what she's experiencing. i can't imagine doing it myself. i would have said "slow this doooooooooown!!!" cause i'm a 'slow and steady' kinda gal. ;)

ron, i agree with you. who knows what worlds live within us... and within them. ;) we think alike!

[bikediva]

Absolutely you kill the good with the bad. That's why it's tricky to find the balance. It's easy to go crazy killing worms, and do harm to the body. That's why proper elimination, and taking probiotics like rejuvelac or raw saurkraut or other fermented foods, is so important.

In many ways, it does make sense to go slow, because it gives the body lots of time to adjust. Some of us just like excitement, I guess!

[Rawhoney]

Thanks Aleesha and Bikediva. How much garlic for 4 cups of juice? tia

[Aleesha Sattva]

As much as you can stomach. ;) One - three... depending on your ability to handle it.

[streetsurfer]

Good morning folks. I put a few cloves in yesterdays morning juice. I didn't experienced the garlic odor like I would have if I were chewing it. Juicing it also seemed to change the flavor as well as the intensity. I thought it was more of a mild pepper or mustard flavor. I thought that was neat.

I do use a centrifugal rather than a masticating juicer so maybe it did not process it as well and I only got a hint of it. I know I plugged my screen and did not realize it because of grape skins, but I then cleaned it and ran the pulp back through again. I loved it and will include garlic more often now. What a great way to enjoy it. Really, no noticeable garlic odor in my system through the day.

[RawHealthyBeauty]

Do you think a underactive thyroid can be blamed on parasites?

I never really have ever fasted before so I really don't know what to do when it comes to fasting. I like the idea of putting garlic in juices. A juice fast sounds good. The only concern I have is how to break a fast.

Plus, there is the Rife Frequency machine for this sort of thing that kills parasites in the body. Has anyone experimented with this?

[Aleesha Sattva]

street, oh i've had the garlic breath with juicing... trust me. my kids would complaaaaaaain. LOL

[How?]

You can get zappers too to kill the little buggers! I bought one thats linked to Dr. Clarke.
I haven't gotten around to using it but would say it could be effective although would say the herbal cleanses are stronger.

[Rawhoney]

Every time I eat garlic, I get a very sore throat. I want to try it, but I don't like that feeling, it hurts! I can barely swallow and I get this lump in my throat. When I do swallow I jump as if I have strep throat.

[Aleesha Sattva]

sounds like you may be allergic to it.

[kileyc]

This is an amazing post, a year ago i got my blood tested and saw that i had parasites and then i forgot about it. And now lately i remembered the parasites i have in my body.
I am looking for how to cleanse them out of my body!
Suggestions please?
I have a few different parasite remedies but i would love to hear peoples opinions on the best ones, and also on what they eat during their cleansing.

[Rawhoney]

Thanks Aleesha.
