Do You Have Parasites?!
I recently decided to put myself through a parasite cleanse. I’ve been thinking about it for a while and the many years spent around horses, dogs, cats, and now chickens left me thinking I probably was infected with creepy crawlies (I know, gross). Even though I’ve been eating clean and using essential oils for years I still felt tired and achy most of the time. This is not a good state to be in when you have life stuff to do!
Some of my symptoms I suspected stemmed from parasites were:
fatigued easily
not sleeping well and getting worse
unexplained skin breakouts
intestinal discomfort after meals
achy joints and muscles all the time
Some other parasite symptoms can be:
grinding teeth
mood changes, irritability
itching
hungry after meals
anemia
anxiety
thyroid dysfunction
autoimmune disorders
and more according to some doctors
Some ways parasites can be contracted are:
contaminated drinking water or swimming in lakes ponds or creeks
unclean vegetables or undercooked meats
not washing hands after restroom use
taking care of animals
I’ll be honest this cleanse process was not a walk in the park. BUT I do feel better afterwards. My daily pain is reduced by 90% and I am sleeping much better. Also my clothes fit better! Some of the discomforts of my two week process were:
lots of belching
some nausea
extra bathroom trips
bad headaches
intestinal cramps
waking up at night
felt really tired most of the time
And pretty sure I passed (what appeared to be) at least two tapeworms and a few round worms…I am rather familiar with what they look like due to owning horses. Yes, I was disgusted…
The reason I am posting this personal experience is hopefully to help open your mind as to what may be causing all of the vague illnesses and pains that are so common these days. If a cleanse is something you think you might do please consult your health practitioners first. I am a fairly healthy person on no medications and have no diagnosed illnesses to speak of. Everyone is different.
Some steps you can take before considering any cleanse are:
eat as healthy as possible to make your system less desirable for parasites
lower stress levels, stay organized
hydrate
Contact me if you have any questions about this topic. Do your own research, I did an herbal type cleanse and it worked well for me. Contact your doctor if it is something you might want to do. Most companies recommend only cleansing once per year because it can be hard on your body. This information is for educational purposes only and is not medical advice.
