Guest guest Posted September 7, 2011 Report Share Posted September 7, 2011 There are others that will probably have a better response than I do, but I can explain why we decided to take Humaworm.I saw many emails within this group with the word Humaworm in them and decided to read them. I saw some positive remarks. I started researching parasites online. According to what I have read, there are many countries who treat people every 6 months for parasites. I wanted to know why. From what I've read one can get parasites from just about anything. Our pediatrician said she got parasites 3 times from eating those pre-washed bagged salads. All 4 of our family members were tested for parasites. Our son had parasites earlier in the year, our daughter tested positive for them a month ago. So I thought it would be beneficial to adopt a program to treat them once or twice a year to see if it helps. Since I had read positive remarks here and found blogs where people had reported their positive experience taking Humaworm, I had to check it out. I learned about the company and the history of Dr. and Humaworm. Eventually I had gathered enough positive information to feel good about buying it and trying it. We don't have these ingredients in our regular diet. Perhaps that would be a good thing. With all the reading I have been doing lately I am almost to the belief that we will always be subject to parasites, viruses, and bacteria. Some of these things don't always show up on lab tests. Perhaps if we had a better diet including these ingredients we would always have something in our system keeping the levels of these things under tight control. But we don't. So we are trying Humaworm once or twice a year to see if it helps our overall health. I don't want to have to convince a doctor to prescribe us something every 6 months, and if we are taking something regularly, I'd rather it be natural. So far we've had some small but positive results, but we're only about a week into a 30 day trial.And I'm amazed at how compliant my children are at taking it.Can't complain about that! My groggy early morning opinion. Hope it makes sense. ...annaoh, asking questions never sound stupid. Please don't feel that way. That's how we learn. We welcome you and hope we can help. Pardon me if I sound stupid. I am new on this list and am going through a steep learning curve. I have been reading this thread religiously, especially 's response got me into thinking, whats up with all this anthelmintic effect of Humaworm? How did you guys figure out that your kids may have parasitic infection? Here is the contradiction, I am Ulcerative colitis patient and one of the (FDA unapproved) therapy is worm based, though not parasitic worms. Ulcerative colitis parent is one of the indication for autistic kids, not proved scientifically yet and here we are using anthelmintic like Humaworm on our kids to get rid of wormies. (I know, not everyone here is a UC patient, I phrased it in my context.) Honestly, I am totally lost, so here are my questions, 1. How did you get a feeling that your child may have worm infestation? 2. Why did you choose to go to Humaworm over traditional anthelmintic, say like Metronidazole or similar.3. From my point of view, ingredients in Humaworm aren't that exceptional. If you look at Indian Cuisine, at least half of those ingredients are used by the Indians on daily basis. 4. Is there anyone here on the list that has used traditional anthelmintic with no effects and saw effects after use of Humaworm? Please don't shoot me. I am trying to learn why folks are so inclined to Humaworm. For my son, his poop is perfect, as someone mentioned "pumpkin poop". BMs are regular and as far as we can understand, no abdominal pain, Hence, we doubt he has any parasitic infection but do you still think we should ask his pediatrician about this anthelmintic stuff? Thanks,Prasad I said earlier today that I had nothing to report. Knowing I've been checking my son's diaper and my own progress,...thinking that my teen daughter would tell me if she saw anything, tonight she said sh'e been pooping worms since the first or second day on Humaworm. I didn't know. I'll be checking her samples now. ...anna Wow!!!!! =-O =-O Thanks,. I am buying Humaworm right now. My son is allergic to garlic.Does this cancel out using humaworm ?And why is that? Does anyone know? Thanks,Tammy F. , You're amazing. Thanks so much for giving us so much thoughtful detail. So very helpful and inspiring. One quick question. How old is Mia? Did you use the children's version for her? Do your kids swallow capsules? Obviously, for the youngest, you must have opened the capsules. What did you out the herbs in to mask the taste? Thanks again. You are an INSPIRATION. Go fearless parasite mamma!!! -Sylvia amazing melissa thank you so much I love hearing sucess stories truely they give me so much hope.. channa From: To: mb12valtrex Sent: Tuesday, September 6, 2011 2:17 PM Subject: Re: Humaworm Update THANKS so much for that description !! Mia and Ellie passed exactly this- yellow mucousy stool with red pinhead dots all throughout!!! They each passed about a half cup of it. It is one of two things we've seen on Humaworm that we couldn't obviously identify. Looking under the microscope, I did see what looks to be flukes in the sample from that day, but I had been seeing these in general since about 10 days in, so I didn't connect it exactly. So we are through the Humaworm for the girls, and I have a few days left (we staggered a bit because of traveling). It has been nothing short of a miracle for us. I wish I could mind-meld everyone I meet and tell them of our changes in a way they fully comprehend. I am not even sure where to start because the changes have been so profound. I have tried to write an update 3 times now!! First things first, I guess, the poop. We've all passed tapeworms. Sophie (22 mo) passed a 3 inch worm. Poor gal. Mia's was several inches long. With the microscope we've seen that Mia and Sophie passed Giardia. We've all passed tons of microscopic roundworms. We've all passed flukes and hookworms. At about 10 days in Mia and Ellie passed the larger mass of flukes mentioned above. After this we all started passing these sheets of stretchy, thick, medium brown stuff- at first it covered our whole BM's. Since then we pass it every several days in sections. If you try to pull it apart it springs back together. It makes me wonder what biofilm looks like?? I've tried to google for pictures of biofilm in stool with no luck. Mia's gains came quickly. The anger-clenched fist-veins popping out of neck possessiveness went away. Suddenly she started going to the bathroom all by herself (and sometimes as if suddenly out of a dream she even wiped herself!). This is significant because she has never gone to the bathroom by herself. I can actually now get her to go into a public restroom by herself!!!! Stunning! Cognitively she made huge gains. We paint a lot. In just a few days she went from painting just general swirls and sort-of-spots-like-trees to painting a landscape with ground, a lake, trees, the sun, and clouds. (Following our first parasite treatment with just wormwood and Breakstone back in January she went from CONSISTENTLY painting a whole page drenched with one color to using different colors and trying to make general forms. She also went from mirror writing the 3 letters in her name to writing them in the correct direction overnight!). Drawing, a week into humaworm she came up and had drawn with a pencil a picture of her physical therapist, complete with earrings, hair, eyelashes, eyebrows. . .. . I was stunned. I held up her last drawing of a person- arms and legs not even in the right place (her PT says this is a sign of her SPD and inability to know where her own body parts are). Other gains- Mia is finally emotionally attached to things- like a stuffed animal that she sleeps with- but not in an obsessive way. She plays with toys, animals, dolls with creativity. She can now imagine them in activities and have imaginitive play with them. For Mia's whole life she has never been able to play more than 5 minutes (OK, occasionally as long as 10 minutes) without screaming, crying, fighting with a sibling, crying out for help. About a week or so into Humaworm I realized that she had played for over an hour with her sister- transitioning from one kind of play to another, sharing toys, taking turns. I swear, it was at this moment that I fell on the floor and cried. Mia is now reading basic words and finally understands counting. After several days of this heaven, of Mia and Ellie literally rolling on the floor in giggles and love and uproarious laughter, of Mia reading road signs (?!?!), of 'normal' poops for the first time in her life, Mia started to get crazy again. The fighting and possessiveness came back, short temper, anxiety, tactile sensitivity, intense neediness, painting big blobs of nothingness. I had stopped taking poop samples for a few days because everything looked good for a while- no eggs, few worms. Well with the regression I popped the microscope back on the table and started samples. Lo and behold Mia was shedding a bunch of worm eggs. She started with anal itching at the same time. As soon as the eggs stopped showing up, she got better again. We had a week of good times, and then a regression again- this time she was shedding eggs and a ton of candida. So it has been just a true blessing to have this microscope. When Mia goes back to inflexible/obsessive/anxious/fearful, I take a sample and look and see what is going on. It really has focused me in on one enemy- the parasites. (We are also fighting enemy #2, viruses, with antivirals- everytime Mia is on acyclovir for a few days she starts chelating naturally- she gets these black smeared poops and goes through a sensitive period where she commonly has high-pitched scream attacks- but that's a post and some questions for another day). In the process of researching parasites I found the obvious link to B12. Parasites cause B12 deficiency. Whether because they disturb the intestinal lining or the acid/alkaline balance and lessen uptake or because they consume it themselves, there are many articles linking parasite infection to B12 deficiency. With this you get the cognitive declines and decreased methylation discussed in this group. B12 deficiency is linked to obsessive compulsive disorder and other psychiatric/mood disorders in articles from mainstream medicine, alternative medicine, and the field of psychiatry. Another huge thing to come out of Humaworm for us is that ALL of our family has lost our food sensitivities (we did do NAET in conjunction for Mia, Ellie, and I- but not Sophia or my husband). We are still GFCF, but are able to eat salicylates, phenols, oxalates, etc. Of interest, all of these things that we had to avoid for years are the parts of food that are the plant defense mechanisms against parasites!!!!!! Salicylates are concentrated in the peels of plants- zucchini, apples, aspirin (bark). Oxalates are the crystals that plants use (think tuberous carrots) to keep bugs from eating them. Sulfites are in sap and bark. . . . .We have spent the last few years keeping our parasites happy!!!!! My theory is that these foods cause the parasites to freak out- either to die and produce die-off chemicals, or just to be seriously aggravated and produce chemicals- and then THESE chemicals- from the parasites- trigger mast cell degranulation in our bodies which causes the symptomology of mood changes- histamines causing hyperactivity, other nuerotransmitters released in mast cell degranulation causing aggression, anxiety. . . That's my theory. I hope to spend some time finding more evidence of this. On to some other changes from our family's humaworm experience. When I was pregnant with Mia (our first), my husband developed this terrible halitosis. I had terrible morning sickness (all day and night sickness- which of interest is caused by B vitamin deficiency!! And Mia was born with severe cradle cap- also caused by B vitamin deficiency!). His breath was so bad I had to start sleeping on a couch in the other room. At the same time we both started with the anal itching. We had just moved into our house, where an old dog with incontinence had lived and we had two cats. We think our tapeworms started here. So periodically since then this awful halitosis would come back. Over the last year it has been pretty much full time.My husband is slim, 'healthy', eats well, doesn't drink, we could NOT figure this out. Well guess what. his halitosis is GONE now. Gone. He is also a happier man. For the first time since we've had children his heart is truly open. He doesn't have to fight inner demons to connect with them- his inpatience is way down. His energy is up and he helps with house chores, with manage them. He is not so angry. It is a subtle but profound difference. Now for my crazy story. About 2 weeks into the humaworm I started with really strong ovarian cramping. It was enough to distract me from everything I was doing. It was ovulation time, so I just thought I was having an intense ovulation. Then I thought back to about 15 years ago when I went to a class on digestion and the nutritionist leading it was also an iridologist. When she was making recommendations for me she offered to look at my irises for signs of problems to address. She hesitantly told me that I had worms in my ovaries and asked if I had ever had an ovarian cyst on my left ovary! Sure enough I had, since high school, one that 'came and went' with my cycle according to the gynecologists over the years. I was put on low dose birth control for it. So the iridologist reading came when I was in my 20's. I thought I had control of everything (the folly of youth), took some herbs once, and went on with things. Fast forward back to a couple of weeks ago and this intense ovarian cramping. Suddenly it occurred to me, 'I'm on a dewormer!' I may be getting rid of ovarian worms!'. So, I grabbed the trusty microscope and took a sample. A teeny, tiny sample. I put it up on the microscope. . . . . . . . .. . . and found hundreds and hundreds of microscopic roundworms. This was in a sample smaller than the size of a grain of rice. I was shocked. There were SO MANY worms. So along with my cyclic cyst over the years I have also had cyclic mood issues. Basically your classic manic phase (I can save the world! I have at least 10 dozens ideas of how to do this! I can do them all!) with ovulation and depressive phase (the world and I are doomed, nothing will ever work, EVER, why try anything) starting about 4 days before my period. With liberation coming when my period starts and almost a week of normalcy somewhere in there and a week of extreme anger in there as well. I've controlled it with diet and lifestyle, with Evening Primrose oil or other essential fatty acids, by talking myself out of the more intense moods. I've carried on 'normal' life. Well, with my pregnancy with Sophia, when I got Giardia, everything intensified. I was extremely angry with my husband (with good reason, admittedly, things needed to change, I needed more support, he was still eaten up with worms himself remember!). Even after made some significant changes over the last 2 years, my anger would swell in predictable cycles and just overtake me. I felt I had no control over it anymore- I just couldn't talk myself out of the feeling of spewing hatred and a paranoid anger. I would get overwhelmed by obsessing over something that was essentially an inborn fault or fault of his upbringing (that for sure he needs to work on)- but think that it was something he was doing on purpose, something he could never escape or didn't want to- and my mind would spiral out to plans for divorce or separation, and all of this with clenched teeth and fierce anger myself. It was just out of control. Then it would pass and I would be consumed with confusion and regret, depression. I felt that I was over the line into mental disorder and tried some supplements for rapid cycling bipolar disorder, PMDD etc. etc. They didn't help. So, in this phase after ovulation, after doing the dewormer and finding the parasites, where usually the anger period would start up and I would try to hold on for dear life, this month nothing happened. Nothing happened! I just finished my period. NOTHING HAPPENED. Again, I wish I had words to explain. I am just literally stunned. I don't know what to say other than to report my complete ABSENCE of symptoms. So I think that about covers our little world of miracles here. We are wrapping up our humaworm treatment and will go for a next go 'round with the Old Fashioned Spices product. It is a lot more expensive, but I have heard great things about it. We are all still showing worm eggs in cycles, so I think we will have to keep at it. I am also going to look into organ detox protocols- liver cleanses, galbladder cleanses. I have read on CureZone about people passing large tapeworms from liver cleanses alone. We are now converts and committed to a life that includes regular parasite and organ cleanses. It is just what we will do. A friend of mine doing biomedical treatment for her neurological disorder said that her genetic testing showed that she held several genes for being not good at removing parasites that attach to the intestinal wall. Maybe we are one of these types as well. OH, thinking of the galbladder and galbladder cleanses, I will leave with my last good news. So while in Colorado my husband and I started doing what every good Boulderite does and running and cycling. I even did a triathlon between Ellie and Sophie! One thing that got me though was that I always got these terrible cramps on my right side just below my rib cage. One doctor did an ultrasound to look for galstones but found none. So I would run, 3-6 miles twice a week, really slow and half of the time feeling like my galbladder was going to burst. I would bike and try to keep up with while doing all of these contorted motions on my bike to try to shift the pain. When I had Sophie I was so sick with Giardia that I quit excercising altogether. Sophie is 22 months old and I have only gone on a few walks around the block. Really, that and 30 minutes jogging on the treadmill about a year ago and that is it. So, yesterday, and I took the bikes out for a ride. We picked a nice paved bike path so that it could be a leisurely stroll. I was nervous because I would be pulling Ellie (Kev pulls Mia and Sophie) in a bike stroller. I didn't have high hopes for the day and just hoped I could get through it and still enjoy the scenery. SO. . . . at mile 5 I really felt something was surely different. At mile 12, when I climbed a steep grade for a half mile pulling 70 pounds of kid and trailer, I really knew somthing was different. At mile 24, on the way back, after 2 more steep climbs and going downhill now, I let a loud whoooooop out and realized 'I feel better than I've ever felt in my life'. No galbladder cramps, no wheezing, no anger that my body can't keep up. We pedaled 30 miles. I feel fine today. I haven't been on a bike in over 2 years. . . . . . . . I'll say it again. I am stunned. OK, so I understand that we were probably particularly eaten up with parasites, so 'individual results may vary', but I wanted to share our story. Our story with Mia isn't yet solved. Today she is going through what I believe is a round of natural chelating since we started on Aciclovir a few days ago. She is fighting, going through high pitched screaming and crying fits. So we obviously have more work to do. But more often than not now, we have a gal who is happy, is thinking, is self regulating, is wearing pants and sweaters, goes to the bathroom by herself, spells, and draws entire compositions of princesses in fields with pet dogs and trees in the background and the sun and grass and a crown on her head and arms and legs all where they belong. And at least every other day Mia is happy enough to roll around and giggle with her sisters and do sweet things for people in the family.
