Guest guest Posted September 15, 2005 Report Share Posted September 15, 2005 intestinal stuff might work with pads over the area. Just use wetted cloth pads of a few inches across. Put one in front, one behind the stomach or intestinal area.. Also, colloidal silver can be made electrically, see the colloidal silver lists on , might be easy to make and very useful for gastrointestinal problems. It's pretty cheap per ounce to make it. IF you have access to clean water, distilled is best, just get some pure silver (99.99%, don't use coins!) and connect electrodes to battery, insert into water keeping them apart, stir once in awhile. After about 10 minutes pour out most of it, and use a few ounces to drink to help kill germs. It's good for burns, also. The remaining bit in the liquid is used to " seed " the next batch. Simply add more clean water and repeat. Two silver rods will make almost 100 gallons of the liquid. the use of the godzilla device assumes you can get the bug inbetween the electrodes. For malaria, use on each wrist over the pulse points for an hour a day. after 3-10 days it should be gone, and all symptoms will have ceased, according to the study we have on file. I don't know if you can repeat that, but you should be able to, and please REPORT TO US what you find, ok? we're here to help and be helped, just like you, bG I don't know of any restrictions on who uses it, but watch out for skin irritations/burns on small children, others with sensitive skins. bG > Hi all > > I live in Dominican Republic.

Guest guest Posted September 22, 2006 Report Share Posted September 22, 2006 Hi Edy and others, Diagnos-Techs in Kent, Washington is one of the best labs around for parasite testing. Unlike most labs they do antigen and antibody testing for specific parasites, which are usually not detected via regular methods. See: http://www.diagnostechs.com/body_text/tests/gi/gi_doctor.htm It is my belief that in a small subgroup of CFS patients parasitic infection may be their main (although not only) underlying factor. Many other people with CFS also have parasitic infections, although in these people it is probably more or a secondary/exacerbating factor. Everyone with CFS should have a thorough assessment for parasitic infections. Here in Australia Histopath in Sydney (http://www.histopath.com.au/) is the best lab. They do a 3-day stool parasitologist + antigens to giardia and cryptosporidium. If anyone in Australia is reading this, if you send me a private email I will organise this test for you, at no cost to myself.

Guest guest Posted July 11, 2007 Report Share Posted July 11, 2007 Liver flukes are very common, like lung flukes. Hulda s protocols work really well, also not eating liver helps as it feeds them. Do the liver cleanse but only after the other cleanses. It is important to repeat all the cleanses 2 weeks later, as the first cleanse does not kill the eggs, which usually have an incubation life of 28 days. Avoiding alcohol is also important during the cleansing period, this includes benzene and all solvents. So make sure that the person is chemical free too. Flukes also like metals, especially in the mouth. Use the book "The Cure for all Diseases". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 About 50% of the population has them. Parasites may be a cofactor in almost any dis-ease. Reducing underling stress factors are a key. Three herbs are commonly used to rid the body of over 100 types of parasites. And evry often without any feelings of nausea, and commonly mixes well with most medications. The three herbs are: * Black Walnut Hulls (from the black walnut tree) * Wormwood (from the Artemisia shrub) * Common Cloves (from the clove tree) All must be used together. Black walnut hull and wormwood kill adults and developmental stages of at least 100 parasites. Cloves kill the eggs. Only if you use them together will you rid the body of parasites. If you kill only the adults, the tiny stages and eggs will soon grow into new adults. If you kill only the eggs, the million stages already loose in your body will soon grow into adults and make more eggs. They must be used together as a single treatment. " There are hundreds of websites selling popular versions of Hulda 's recipe. Unfortunately, potency and quality of their products is not always the best. It is not easy to get fresh Black Walnut look for the highest quality herbs. The potency of Cloves and Wormwood is not always the same. Some are good, some are bad. Some are expensive, others are cheap. Price for 1 month supply of herbs is from $14 to $150. You might want to inquire about White Dove Hearing's line of related Homeopathic's ie. " Vermafage " developed by Prof. . Also you may try a alcohol based tincture called ia. ia is available through online stores and at most healthfood stores. Price vary from $30 to $14. ia is a tincture, it can be used in enema water. That way it is far more potent then any other remedy, cause it is not loosing its potency by being diluted with digestive juices. If used with enema or colonics, it can reach and kill parasites hidden inside pockets of the Colon! You can use from 30 and up to 90 drops of ia on every liter of enema water (even 150 drops is not too harmful, but it could be too expensive!). If using more then 20-30 drops, make sure that you add good quality Probiotics or home made yogurt into the last enema water! In any case, even if you don't use ia at all (if you use just clean water), it is very smart to add Probiotics into the last enema water. To save ia, your first enema water (or several first waters) should be just clean water to wash colon. Then the next water (high enema - retention enema) should be with ia, 30 - 90 drops. Try to keep it inside as long as possible (10, 20 min ). Last water should not contain ia, but it should contain high quality probiotics, to repopulate colon with good bacteria. Never take enema for longer then 7 days in a row, or you risk loosing tone. Taking ia with enema is not a replacement for oral consumption, cause ia taken with enema will not reach your small intestine, nor your blood. laptopsrepaired @ http://timholmes.byregion.net > > looking for some recommendations to eliminate parasites from the body > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 4, 2009 Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 Hi Natures Sunshine stock various parasite remedies, take care with the Chinese one as it can stress the adrenal glands. Adding pumpkin seeds to a smoothie would also help. Hulda has excellent protocols for people and pets. In addition to the auto zap on the main SCIO test matrix of course. I personally like the cascara and buckthorn combination as it is not too strong. Oregano oil capsules are also excellent, take one at night for a month. It is important to have a good knowledge of your clients overall health at the start point, if the client is exhausted and has poor health your detox should be a mild one as it can further reduce adrenal function at first. If you require more information or guidance please e-mail me direct at mail@..., thank you bye Sue (unknown) looking for some recommendations to eliminate parasites from the body Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 You also need to repeat any detox 2 weeks later to complete the killing of the egg cycle. You can make clove water to drink from actual dried cloves, excellent for pets too. In an ideal world you would zap the parasites for an hour each night for a week, then alternate nights for a week, then twice a week, then weekly to keep your self clear. Most people have them but our sex and adrenal hormones regulate them in early age. It is said that each cancer cell has a parasite inside it. I recommend you take CoQ10 twice a day while detoxing to prevent die off symptoms. If you are bitten on a regular basis there is a homeopathic for flying insects, also taking B6 helps too. Don't forget to follow the sequence correctly and include the kidney detox, metal detox chealtion, liver cleanse etc. Bye Sue Re: Parasites About 50% of the population has them.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 Hi there, I think this should be a basic part of everyone's protocol. When the illness cascade begins, various systems get out of whack such as the immune system. A large portion of your immune system function occurs in the digestive tract - stomach acid kills bacteria in food, other more complex functions in the intestine. Fruits and vegetables can harbor bugs (no matter what country it's from). Homegrown can be problematic but less likely. There are various bugs that are zoonotic - meaning can spread from animals to humans (or other life forms). So pets can be a problem. They should be wormed at the same time, if possible. Do not give cats the same medication as dogs - there can be differences. I have been tempted to follow the Japanese custom of removing the shoes at the door - it is amazing what is carried in on the soles of our shoes. I try to do a parasite cleanse twice a year. I have used Nature's Sunshine parasite cleanse as it has less cascara sagrada which can cause cramping. Switched this year to a one called ParaStop but it seemed a little too weak (better for our population than the heavy duty cleansers). Some are so strong, I have to reduce the dosage. I am sure you can find something at the local health food store. Most of these herbal combinations use the main three items - wormwood, black walnut hulls and cloves. Raw pumpkin seeds are said to be good maintenance after the cleanse. Also, keeping an alkaline pH is better than being acidic. My functional medicine doctor has me adding a pinch of baking soda to each glass of water - no need for expensive alkalizing supplements. There are many sites that give advice on parasite removal. I like Dr. Hulda 's cleanses in general. Try searching the archives (using the search function) as this topic has been discussed a lot in the past). HTH, Marti > > It seems like the latest topic is about parasites. Now I am concerned if I should consider the same. I am wondering what led you to believe you had parasites, such as what symptoms, or stool sample? > > I had a stool sample taken a while ago and it came out ok. Not sure what they tested for-would that have likely identified the parasites, or is it like the lyme, where the tests can be false negative or them. > > I have seen some horrifying pictures on the internet of people holding up long strings of stool, or a pile of white looking things. Is that what can come out, or is it less noticeable? I have our basic symptoms of CFS, adrenal, and lyme, but nothing really unusual regarding my intestinal action, other than treating suspicion for Candida. > > Does anyone suggest I look into the possibility of parasites (I have a dog)?

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 I agree with Marti completely about his post. I'd just like to add that urine ph strips are available at some health food stores and frequent samples can help indicate acidity vs. alkalinity. Urine ph is likely in some of your basic lab results as well, but that's just a spot test. Averaging them out from different times of the day is more indicative. Because I'm genetically incapable of short posts, I wanted to include an old compilation from the Merck manual I made when trying to figure out what was wrong with me. Some of this may be helpful, my notes to self are in bold... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Merck Manual to Parasites - Home Edition In industrialized areas, parasitic infections also may affect immigrants and people with a weakened immune system (such as those who have AIDS or who take drugs that suppress the immune system). The infections may occur in places with poor sanitation and unhygienic practices (as occurs in some mental institutions and day care centers). ...Parasites usually enter the body through the mouth or skin...Parasites that enter through the skin bore directly through the skin or are introduced through the bites of infected insects (the vector)...Parasites that infect humans include protozoa.. Protozoa, which reproduce by cell division, can reproduce inside people... Some protozoa (such as those that cause malaria) and some helminths (such as those that cause river blindness) have complex life cycles and are transmitted by insect vectors. http://www.merck.com/mmhe/sec17/ch196/ch196a.html -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Parasites in General Several of the parasites mentioned below have little or no effect on healthy people. It is possible for someone to have one of these, defeat it and never know it. Amebic -ephalits (two types) usually causes death. Noted because of exposure to reclaimed water. http://www.merck.com/mmhe/sec17/ch196/ch196a.html Ascariasis: Unlikely but can't exclude http://www.merck.com/mmhe/sec17/ch196/ch196d.html Cryptosporidiosis: Live on top of water, primary symptom diarrhea can't exclude based on only this citation. Can live forever in immunocompromised. ...is an intestinal infection caused by Cryptosporidium, a protozoan. The main symptoms are abdominal cramping and diarrhea http://www.merck.com/mmhe/sec17/ch196/ch196f.html Giardiasis: Possible due to malabsorption...is an infection of the small intestine caused by the single-celled protozoan parasite Giardia lamblia. The main symptoms are abdominal cramping and diarrhea. http://www.merck.com/mmhe/sec17/ch196/ch196h.html Leishmaniasis: transmitted by sand flies, had plenty of those bites but 80-90% death rate and evidence of sores and lowered blood counts makes it unlikely. .... is caused by several species of Leishmaniaprotozoa Tiny infected sand flies spread the protozoa when they bite people or animals http://www.merck.com/mmhe/sec17/ch196/ch196j.html Pinworm Infection: Unlikely but can't exclude. " The eggs are deposited in a sticky, gelatinous substance that sticks to the skin around the anus " Pinworm infection (enterobiasis) is caused by the intestinal roundworm Enterobius vermicularis and may cause itching in the area around the anus. It usually affects children http://www.merck.com/mmhe/sec17/ch196/ch196n.html Malaria: too much to discuss, possibly unlikely in my travels and symptoms, but I don't know enough about it. Microsporidiosis: Similar symptoms to allergies. Can be inhaled by spores (airborne mold?) .... is infection caused by Microsporidiaprotozoa.

When the illness cascade begins, various systems get out of whack such as the immune system. A large portion of your immune system function occurs in the digestive tract - stomach acid kills bacteria in food, other more complex functions in the intestine. Fruits and vegetables can harbor bugs (no matter what country it's from). Homegrown can be problematic but less likely. There are various bugs that are zoonotic - meaning can spread from animals to humans (or other life forms). So pets can be a problem. They should be wormed at the same time, if possible. Do not give cats the same medication as dogs - there can be differences. I have been tempted to follow the Japanese custom of removing the shoes at the door - it is amazing what is carried in on the soles of our shoes. I try to do a parasite cleanse twice a year. I have used Nature's Sunshine parasite cleanse as it has less cascara sagrada which can cause cramping. Switched this year to a one called ParaStop but it seemed a little too weak (better for our population than the heavy duty cleansers). Some are so strong, I have to reduce the dosage. I am sure you can find something at the local health food store. Most of these herbal combinations use the main three items - wormwood, black walnut hulls and cloves. Raw pumpkin seeds are said to be good maintenance after the cleanse. Also, keeping an alkaline pH is better than being acidic. My functional medicine doctor has me adding a pinch of baking soda to each glass of water - no need for expensive alkalizing supplements. There are many sites that give advice on parasite removal. I like Dr. Hulda 's cleanses in general. Try searching the archives (using the search function) as this topic has been discussed a lot in the past). HTH, Marti > > It seems like the latest topic is about parasites. Now I am concerned if I should consider the same. I am wondering what led you to believe you had parasites, such as what symptoms, or stool sample? > > I had a stool sample taken a while ago and it came out ok. Not sure what they tested for-would that have likely identified the parasites, or is it like the lyme, where the tests can be false negative or them. > > I have seen some horrifying pictures on the internet of people holding up long strings of stool, or a pile of white looking things. Is that what can come out, or is it less noticeable? I have our basic symptoms of CFS, adrenal, and lyme, but nothing really unusual regarding my intestinal action, other than treating suspicion for Candida. > > Does anyone suggest I look into the possibility of parasites (I have a dog)? And what route would be suggested? > > PS: Thank you to for your information on the Salt and C and the above bit too. > > Thanks, > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
