Worms And Parasites - Getting Rid Of Them
I was putting together the weight loss review site the other day, and one of the books I was reviewing was about parasites living in humans (you can view that book here if you want.)
It was something that I thought was really just a problem in 3rd world countries, but apparently it is rife across the US and Europe as well.
Anyway I am going to do some more research into it, but in the meantime I came across this article which I thought was quite informative, so I thought I would share it with you.
Are You Being Eaten Alive From The Inside Out?
THE PROBLEM:
Dr. James Balch M.D., and Phyllis A. Balch, CNC note : “Worm infestations can range from mild to severe, even life threatening, particularly in children. They result in poor absorption of essential nutrients, and in some cases, loss of blood from the gastrointestinal tract…Malabsorption resulting from parasitic infection makes one susceptible to many diseases because it results in
Diminished immune function…Parasites are more common than most people suppose and they can be behind many illnesses, including colon disorders… They… are common in people with AIDS chronic fatigue syndrome, candidiasis, and many other disorders. There are some very helpful foods as well as herbs for worm infestation.
Natural Remedies
Aloe Vera taken in any form is very effective in eliminating worms.
Other herbs that help expel worms are cascara sagrada, wormwood, cloves, Echinacea, goldenseal, burdock, and black walnut to name a few.
Grapefruit seed extract is also helpful in destroying parasites. According to the, Natural Remedies Encyclopedia, one can “Take black walnut extract and chaparral tea or tablets, eat pumpkin seeds and figs. Also drink fig juice…A hot-water enema, with 3 tsp.of salt to a quart of water, may get rid of pinworms…The Japanese use ginger to get rid of worms. Research has shown this to be true.
One notable solution is Diatomaceous Earth. By taking these capsules for three weeks, you can rid yourself of worms. The worms eat it and it causes them to disintegrate.
Garlic has been used effectively for pinworms, roundworms, giardia (an amoeba), as well as other parasitic infections.
Finally according to Dr. Huldah Clark, N.D., “Getting rid of all parasites would be absolutely impossible using clinical medicines that can kill only one or two parasites each. Such medicines also tend to make you quite ill. Imagine taking 10 such drugs to kill a dozen of your parasites! Good news, perhaps, for the drug makers but not for you. Yet three herbs can rid you of over 100 types of parasites! And without so much as a headache! Without nausea! Without any interference with any drug that you are already on! Does this sound too fantastic? Just too good to be true? They are nature’s gift to us.
The herbs are: Black Walnut Hulls (from the black walnut tree)
Wormwood (from the Artemisia shrub)
Common Cloves (from the clove tree)
These three herbs 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 yourself 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.”
Remember the foods that you eat have a large part to play in worm infestation. Even fruits and vegetables that have not been properly washed can lead to worm infestation. Eating meat of any kind almost guarantees parasite infestation.
The original diet given to Mankind in the Garden of Eden is still the optimal diet, and we would do well to follow the pattern given there.: “And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.” An addition was added later, after mankind sinned, “thou shalt eat the herb of the field.” Genesis 1:29; 3:18.
