Everyone Has Parasites PART TWO! My Experience w/ My First Cleanse
- Published on: 25 February, 2014
- Last update: 03 November, 2020

Update 6/12/15: Thank you to everyone who has read this post! I never expected so many people to be as interested in parasites as I am. I have always felt this is a hugely neglected part of medicine.
After many complaints about the terrible taste of the tincture I recommend in this post (sorry guys!), my Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioner Lily and I created our very own parasite cleansing kit with the best components we’ve found to date. The cleanse that we created is in vegetarian capsule form only so it’s much more pleasant than a tincture or other methods. We are now accepting pre-orders on our IndieGogo campaign where you can read more! Thank you so much for your support!!
Hello everyone! I’m so glad so many of you were interested in reading about parasites in part one and thank you all for the feedback! Every day is a journey and I’m glad we can all learn about health and the human body TOGETHER, as I’m still learning as well – it never ends. We have a lot of ground to cover because we’ve never been taught a lot of the “alternative” and ancient things that are essential to our physical and mental health. Like I said, if you really want to delve into this subject of parasites and their connection to almost every disease/ailment check out “The Cure For All Diseases” by Hulda Clark (the book in my last post). You cannot be TRULY healthy if you have parasites, and you can’t have nearly as many parasites if you are healthy and constantly cleaning/nourishing your body with clean foods. A part of this process of cleaning and nourishing is bi-yearly parasite cleansing. You may need to make it more frequent if this is your first parasite cleanse. You have years of parasite reproduction to get rid of (as gross as that sounds, it’s a part of life!)
I just got home from my first ever alternative medicine appointment and it was AMAZING! I will do a full post on my experience this weekend (UPDATE 6/12/15: Post now available here). I saw a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) practitioner, Lily, who is trained in the NAET protocol that fully eliminates the body’s allergies. Your overall health stems from the health of your gut: if your immune system is low and your gut is permeable/leaky, your body sees harmless food as allergens. This causes the body to poorly absorb nutrients and see food as the enemy, triggering inflammation. You are also susceptible to parasites when your immune system is low, as I’ve been saying. My TCM doctor said that all patients go on a parasite cleanse and explained that many women with painful menstruation and ovarian cysts actually have parasites in their uterus as a contributing factor. She had one patient who was about to get ovaries removed because of “cysts,” but she put her on a parasite cleanse instead. Yes… she had little worms come out! She went back to a Western doctor and didn’t need surgery – of course they were shocked!
My First Parasite Cleanse
Here’s how it started: I was very ill at the time with issues ranging from allergies to IBS to acne. I had already dabbled with some herbs such as Flor Essence to support my liver (which was causing all of my problems), but I felt that I was missing a piece of the puzzle. I read an article on Natural News about how over 90% of Americans have a serious parasite problem and don’t know it. As many of you know, I’ve always had a host of health problems and therefore have been open to trying anything! I started to do some research and found some videos on parasites. I eventually found this guy who tried a parasite cleanse and documented his journey. I watched all of his videos, and by the way, he shows pictures of his “results” so if you are a curious cat check him out. By typing in “how to parasite cleanse” into Google, I somehow came upon a forum on CureZone.com (which has now become one of my favorite websites). This is how I find a lot of the herbs and cleansing methods that have worked for me. I read forums created by people just like you and me, exploring alternative medicine and giving testimonies of what has worked for them! Absorb everything that you read on forums and read them often. You will get tons of different opinions and information from people all around the world, and then it’s up to you to do further research on those topics and decide which protocols are for you. Listen to your intuition on what traditional therapies resonate with you.
CureZone.com has an excellent parasite forum where I got a lot of tips and tricks! I started to check out the sub-forum “Hulda Clark Parasite Protocol” and realized that everything people know today about the three parasite cleansing herbs (black walnut hull, wormwood, cloves) was because of Dr. Hulda Clark’s discoveries. I bought her book and read the chapter explaining how to use the herbs for a complete parasite cleanse.
I printed out Dr. Clark’s chart on how many capsules/drops of each herb to take and put it on my fridge. I purchased Dr. Clark Store’s cleanse, which is on the left of this photo.
This particular package contains Green Black Walnut Hull in tincture form and wormwood/cloves in capsule form. Does this matter? It’s the way it’s written in Hulda Clark’s book, but I think you can take all three in tincture form to eliminate steps. That’s why this time around I’m trying all three herbs in tincture form together from a different company, to compare results. The Para-Cleanse Standard 3 items was $40 and worked very well for me, HOWEVER the new cleanse I’m doing right now (with all three in tincture) was only $11. I’ll let you know how this one stands up to the $40 set of the herbs. (UPDATE: It came out to more than $11 because you need 2-3 bottles to complete a cleanse. Both cleanses worked equally well in terms of killing the worms, but they are very rough on the taste buds due to the tincture aspect and many people in the comments have complained about that. I also had complaints about the psyllium husks/bentonite clay which I talk about below, because it’s constipating. I experienced this as well and now choose different colon-cleansing methods. Those are two of the major reasons my TCM doctor and I created our own cleanse with capsules instead of tinctures and more effective ways of releasing the bowels! You can check it out here)
This is the $11 tincture from Amazon.com:

Here’s why I’m doing another cleanse even though I did one a few months ago. I didn’t get all of the parasites out, silly me! My skin cleared up like crazy right after I finished the cleanse, but soon a few spots came back because I did nothing to maintain or continue my progress with killing the years of worms inside of me. Duh, in all 20 years of my life, that was my first parasite cleanse! When you’re just starting out after being in the dark for so long, you have to keep cleansing until you get everything out! NOTE: Always take a 2-3 week break between cleanses.
Another reason I’m doing a second cleanse is because you’re supposed to take maintenance doses after the parasite cleanse to keep the leftover eggs and any new parasites you ingest daily from thriving. Dr. Clark believed that in order to gain 100% of the benefit of the cleanse, it was best to stay on the maintenance dose indefinitely. This helps free up your body’s energy for issues that need attention rather than relentlessly fighting microorganisms. On top of that, the herbs in the maintenance dose contain essential minerals and nutrients that support the body’s overall immune system and keep things like colds and viruses away. I only took the maintenance dose for 1 week and then stopped. This time around, I plan to do three consecutive cleanses with 1 week breaks in between each cleanse. Then, I’ll take the maintenance dose (only one time a week!) (UPDATE: Here’s how my backne looked before and after 3 consecutive cleanses (plus my first huge worm specimen that was still in tact – most are broken up in the stool! I passed this guy on the 3rd cleanse while juice fasting):
I use my own parasite cleanse now every 3-6 months, and take 5 capsules 2x a day once a week for maintenance. I do enemas whenever I feel foggy or lethargic. I have gotten most of the huge worms out and now I mostly see flukes, eggs, or larvae.)
Explanation of the herbs used to cleanse
- BLACK WALNUT HULLS (from the black walnut tree – juglans nigra) Used by the Indians of America as an anti-parasite, anti-bacterial, anti-viral and anti-fungal remedy. Its active ingredients are juglone, tannin and iodine. The tincture of the green hulls of the black walnut kills the adult stages of the parasites.
- WORMWOOD (from the Artemisia shrub – artemisia absinthum) Known for its vermicidal properties and helps those with a weak and under-active digestion. It increases the acidity of the stomach and the production of bile. The wormwood capsules kill the larval stages of the parasites .
- COMMON CLOVES (from the clove tree – eugenia caryophyllata) Anti-parasitical, anti-fungal, antiviral and anti-inflammatory properties. It also removes pain. The clove capsules remove the parasite eggs.
The NOW tincture above containing these herbs says to take two droppers full twice a day on an empty stomach for two weeks (14 days). It says to take a one week break and you can start up again as many times as you need. Some amazon reviews said people tried three and four droppers full of the tincture twice a day and had even better results so I might bump it up. (EDIT: I did 3-4 droppers full 3x a day because my body could handle it. You may need much less since we’re all different. With the new cleanse my practitioner and I created, we use 4 capsules 3x a day. You must listen to your body and find the right dosage for you – work up slowly.)
Results The First Time
You do not feel them crawling out. They don’t come out alive. They don’t come out alone. They come out impacted into your bowels, hidden by the bulk of your stool. You will see certain parts of worms sticking out, but nothing crazy. It is recommended that you keep gloves and plastic tools in the bathroom in order to find out what parasite is infesting you the most so that you can target it. If you don’t want to, I understand! Just cleansing is most important, you don’t have to look.
Long story short, I got tons of worms out. Flatworms, roundworms, pieces of worms, liver flukes, sheep flukes, larvae, eggs, adults, everything under the sun. I also got a lot of candida out. I felt a lot of headaches while the worms were dying.
They only come out dead, so don’t worry, but when they die they release toxic ammonia into your body that gives you detox symptoms like dizziness, flu symptoms, headaches, fatigue, malaise, etc. That’s why you should cleansing the colon and releasing the bowels while you parasite cleanse, to remove the ammonia and toxins. They go hand and hand, and the colon cleanse will eliminate dead parasite casings and toxins that get stuck in your colon.
My digestion got better, I wasn’t bloated for the first time in years, I was in a better mood, I stopped grinding my teeth, I slept better, my under eye bags went away, and best of all MY SKIN CLEARED UP! Also, any dandruff went away (because the herbs also work to kill candida). Honestly, the benefits were absolutely endless. I would recommend a cleanse to anyone, but with a few amendments:
What I Did Wrong
Three things I did wrong:
1) Not having enough bowel movements while parasite cleansing
2) Not repeating the cleanse after a two week break (I had never parasite cleansed before so I had a lot to get out)
3) Not keeping up with maintenance doses
How I’m Doing My Current Parasite Cleanse
This time around like I keep saying, I’m trying out the NOW Foods tincture with all three herbs. (See edits in red above about how the tincture worked and the cleanse I make for myself and others now.)
- Take a colon cleanse drink (directions below) as soon as you wake up on an empty stomach. Follow with 8 oz of water immediately. Wait 1 hour, then take your parasite cleanse tincture or pills (put two droppers full of the tincture in a glass of water and chug.) Follow with another glass of water. Wait another 15-30 mins after your parasite cleanse drink, then eat breakfast.
- 2 hours before dinner (1 hour between colon and parasite drink, 1 hour between parasite drink and eating), repeat this entire process with another two droppers full. This means you will have one colon cleanse and one parasite drink in the morning, and one colon cleanse/one parasite drink in the evening. (EDIT: The colon cleanse drink below with bentonite clay and psyllium husk works very well to suffocate the worms and clear your intestines. However, it constipated me and many others in the comments. This is why the cleanse I created has colon care formula capsules that work very thoroughly – you should never be constipated while parasite cleansing!)
Colon cleanse drink: The drink I’ll be taking to cleanse my colon as I parasite cleanse is a P&B shake. This stands for Psyllium Husk and Bentonite Clay. You will need Whole Psyllium Husk and Liquid Bentonite Clay. I get both on Amazon (links):
- As I said, as soon as you wake up (and 2 hours before dinner on an empty stomach) take a P&B colon cleanse shake. To make a P&B shake, get 8 oz of water or juice, and add 1 tablespoon whole psyllium husks + 1 tablespoon liquid bentonite. Immediately shake and drink quickly. Follow with an 8 oz glass of water immediately. DO NOT MIX WITH METAL UTENSILS! ONLY SHAKE THIS! LIQUID BENTONITE DETOXES HEAVY METALS AND WILL PULL YOUR UTENSIL METAL INTO YOUR DRINK.
- Wait 1 hour after drinking the P&B shake, then take the parasite cleanse tincture/pills. 15-30 minutes later you can eat. It is important to follow the time guidelines because bentonite clay will absorb everything in it’s path, including the nutrients from your food and the herbs from the parasite cleanse drink. Take a probiotic every night.
You can do this parasite and colon cleanse that I’m doing while eating a normal diet. BUT, eat clean and healthy. Do not eat heavy foods or processed foods. It’s best to do the parasite and colon cleanse while juice fasting but this time around I’ll just be eating light. (EDIT: I indeed tried the cleanse while juice fasting. See the rope worm I got out in the photo up above^^^)
How To Enhance This Parasite/Colon Cleanse
1. EAT HEALTHY – Veggies, salads, leafy greens and cleansing foods. Avoid high sugar foods, and avoid all refined sugar/wheat/processed food.
2. EAT PARASITE KILLING FOOD – Raw garlic, pumpkin seeds aka “pepitas”, pineapples, papaya seeds, oregano essential oil in tea, dried figs.
3. DRINK PLENTY OF WATER – Keep your system flushing out toxins.
After Your Parasite Cleanse
Continue to take a maintenance dose of the tincture or pills. This would be two to three droppers full, twice a day on an empty stomach, once or twice a week. (EDIT: If you want to take a maintenance dose of the capsules in my cleanse, it would be 5 capsules 2x a day once a week)
Also important: after you finish the parasite and colon cleanse, take an excellent probiotic daily. You want to replenish any good bacteria that may have been effected by the herbal antimicrobial. I use Prescript Assist because it contains fulvic acid (rich in minerals) and you can really feel a difference.

Hi Hilary – our updated cleanse, the ParaPro Formula is more gentle on the bowels than our previous cleanses and is an all-in-one bottle. Thus you don’t need the separate colon cleanse (as you may have read in the ebook, we utilize aloe ferox as the colon cleanser). Feel free to reach out to us at support @ organicolivia dot com if we can assist you further – Team Organic Olivia

Black Walnut can be irritating to the gut in sensitive individuals. We designed our parasite cleanse to be as gentle as possible, so instead we utilize olive leaf (whole) and its medicinal extract. Olive leaf is just as effective as black walnut without causing any discomfort. Similarly, the garlic/olive leaf combo in our blend works better than clove in terms of killing the eggs (which was the original purpose of clove in our first formulation) – Dana @ Team Organic Olivia

Hey Aly, yes absolutely – maintenance! Food grade diatomaceous earth every day will continue to kill the parasites and boost your immune system by giving you the added minerals your body is missing when trying to beat these critters. Eating a garlic clove daily, incorporating iodine into your diet, getting a hair mineral analysis to see what minerals your body is desperate for (such as chromium and selenium) are all important. I also never just stop at one cleanse – I did several one after the other before I really saw results with my acne (and I still do them every 3-6 months depending on my traveling). Drinking ginger tea every single morning is also essential for keeping the bugs and symptoms away!

Hey Desi! The only probiotics I ever take are Prescript Assist because I’ve honestly never felt a difference from other brands. If you get the 90 day supply bottle on Amazon it’s $70 up front but will come out to 77 cents per day. The only probiotics that compare are Dr. Ohhira’s, although they have carageenan in them so I stopped using them and switched to this brand. The cheaper brands I’ve tried (NOW foods, Jarrow) just didn’t make me feel a difference, although I do usually enjoy the quality of Jarrow’s products. You have to make sure your DE is 100% FOOD GRADE, and yes I have done the P&B with juice. I don’t use the P&B shakes anymore since I first wrote this post and use my own colon cleanse capsules from my parasite cleanse (much less of a hassle than drinking the shake!) Lots of love!
Alison
Olivia
Hey Alison! I’ve never had that experience before. I always feel better with each successive parasite cleanse I complete. They definitely do move to avoid the herbs, but the point of the herbs is that they purify your blood which runs through every part of your body. No matter where they are, they will get hit by the plant chemicals and become intoxicated (thus dying). The body will do its job of sweeping the waste out once they are dead. 🙂
Jessica
Olivia
Hey Jessica! I can’t advise on this as it’s a serious medical consideration to take into account. If I were you, I would see a naturopath or herbalist (perhaps a Chinese medicine practitioner who can advise you on herbs) and ask them if they feel you’re able to cleanse properly with one kidney. The liver and kidneys are our waste filtration system so you may have to do a modified version of a cleanse that goes slower and doesn’t put a lot of pressure on you too fast. In this situation you should have something tailored to your specific needs 🙂
RC
Olivia
Hey RC! No worries about your lovely furry friend 🙂 She definitely does have parasites as all animals do, so it’s a great idea to put some diatomaceous earth in her food. http://www.diatomaceousearth.com/diatomaceous-earth-for-dogs-cats/ That way you’ll be gently parasite cleansing her over time and she won’t feel any adverse effects. You will certainly be reinfected by her because it’s a part of nature – bugs and germs are everywhere. We can’t avoid them. The only way to stop them from taking over once inside of us, is by making our immune systems so strong that they don’t want to live or breed in our bodies. The important part is that you cleanse every so often, and that you build your immune system up so that you can be exposed to bugs and fight them off easily.

Hey there! This post is about the first parasite cleanse I ever did, which is when I was still a beginner and learning. Although it worked, my Chinese medicine doctor and I developed a more comprehensive cleanse that really gets the job done. The e-book explains our cleanse, which is totally separate from this post about my first experience.

I have the small Don Croft zapper and I definitely think it works, BUT it’s pretty inconvenient to wear all day so I end up only doing it at night most of the time. When I go out there’s just nowhere to put it haha! I like to use it in conjunction with the cleanses but I still make sure to cleanse regularly. To me, the zapper is an adjunct therapy. Look into RIFE machines (very expensive) if you want to be able to really “zap” the specific frequencies of parasites that you’ve identified. Well worth it for those who are heavily infested or suffering from Lyme!

Haha I love the parasite girl part!! Thank you guys. I have taken probiotics during the cleanse, but I feel in a way that it’s counterproductive since you’re constantly cleansing. Andreas Kalcker recommends a probiotic every night during the parasite protocol in the book “Healing The Symptoms of Autism,” however those cases are extreme parasitic infections and the children have absolutely no good bacteria left. Try it and see how you feel. If it helps you digest food better the next day, take the probiotics during the cleanse every night before bed. If you don’t feel a difference, hold off until after the cleanse. Regardless, make sure you are taking probiotics every single day when the cleanse is done 🙂

Hey Olivia! You shouldn’t be too worried – the inside of the mason jar lid does not have the metal exposed. It’s usually painted with some sort of resin. Even if it was exposed to a small amount of the metal on the sides, nothing terrible is going to happen because it was just one time. Now you know for the next! xx

Andreas really believed in his liver flush (which I have done many times and loved) but he became convinced it was the only thing one needed to do for health. He says, “the parasites and germs that prevail in the intestinal tract or liver, they diminish naturally when you do a Liver and Gallbladder Flush.” That’s simply not true – I have never passed large worms in a flush and when I got out my prized 8 inch rope worm, it was during a parasite cleanse/juice fast using bentonite clay. Andreas never really understood the size of the worms living inside of us. You can watch Kerri Rivera’s lecture on autism and take a look at the 45 inch worms living inside those kids: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p5W_ky0RH8A. 162 children recovered from autism and all of them have done extensive parasite cleanses each month, removing foot long plus worms. We’re at a point where the invaders have had a chance to grow out of control so parasite cleanses with specific parasite targeting herbs are definitely necessary.

Hi Nikki – that would most likely be the candida dying. Candida is a fungus that lives in our gut and gets out of control when we go a little overboard with sugar (which happens to the very best of us).

I agree with Laura's comment below about waiting. You are already aware of the benefits of breast milk if you are already planning until your baby is 3 so, IMHO, I would not risk taking a break from nursing. My wife breastfed until our son was 2 and he hardly ever got sick and still rarely gets sick. We believe it's because of the nursing.
Olivia A.
Ken – You are absolutely correct. The beginning of this blog post has a warning not to parasite cleanse while pregnant or breast feeding, so Reese your instinct was right and you should indeed wait until you're finished breastfeeding. Ken raises an excellent point about the benefits of breast milk. Taking a break would not be worth it. I promise that the cleansing can wait – for now your baby

For me, I mixed the psyllium husk and bentonite in with a glass of apple juice instead of plain water. Did it mainly because of blood sugar issues, but it helped it go down easier. I also found that if you let it sit for a few minutes, shaking it up every minute or so, that it becomes a lot less gritty and more like a milk shake consistency. Now that I've finished the flush I mix it in

Hey Laura. Ken brought up a great point about apple juice, but I know what you mean about the texture. Some people may have a constipating reaction to the fiber/bentonite mix, so make sure you are drinking a TON of water, both immediately after the mixture and throughout the day. It sounds like this method of colon cleansing isn't right for you, and that's totally fine – we are all

I won't speak authoritatively, but that's how I did mine. 2 weeks following the same regimen every day; take a week off; then do another 2 weeks. The only variation that I did, that Olivia also mentions, is that I did 3 droppersful in water. For me, the clove taste was really strong so after guzzling the mixture I threw a couple of Tic-Tacs in my mouth to neutralize the taste.

Hi Christina! Thank you SO much 🙂 I think it would be possible to substitute it for a colonic… but I don't think once a week is enough.

I've actually never done an enema (but its been on my to-do list to learn how to) I'm a bit nervous just because I want to do them correctly. If you have a post or a source that easily explains how to perform an enema that would be extremely helpful. Thank you for the quick response too!

Hey Ken. Sometimes when a person is very clogged/toxic with parasites, they will have RE-TOX symptoms where the parasites are dying too quickly and are re-toxing the blood instead of detoxing it. My father who is almost 60 had very similar symptoms, I believe it's because he waited so long in life to do his first parasite cleanse, so the parasites had a lot of time to build up in his body. By

Hi! All you need is the tincture I have listed above that says "fresh green black walnut hull". It actually contains all three herbs. No need to buy cloves separately just buy that 🙂

I am wondering about the same thing! I'm already having problems getting enough to eat when I have to wait 2 hours to breakfast and then 2 hours before dinner… Do I have to wait 4 hours before eating the next meal bc I have to take the cleanses as well? Is it important to eat after taking the cleanse or can I take it before going to bed? Please reply!<br />
Olivia A.
No, don't worry about taking the colon cleanse in the middle of the day when you work up to 3 droppers. You can take that dose with or around food. The only reason you have to wait in the morning is because the bentonite clay sucks up EVERYTHING in its path so it will suck up the nutrients from your food.

Hi! I experienced a few side effects-headaches nausea acne etc. I did not have bright green urine, but the tincture does have a slight green twinge to it so that may be it. Are you drinking tons of water?

Hey! No diarrhea whatsoever. It is a gentle colon cleanse that bulks up your stool and allows you to go with no urgency. Your bowel movements will feel very relieving.

Yes it contains all three! 🙂

Hey! Definitely up the dosage and try to take "Dr. Christopher's Lower Bowel Formula" capsules. Your body may for whatever reason not like the P&B shakes, so that is another less invasive colon cleansing option. Also do 3 droppers 3x a day.

Thanks for the info! I will re-order the tincture along with the Dr. Christopher's pills and try the cleanse again in a week or two 🙂 I have been upping the dosage but still not seeing any wormies.. although I have been having what I think I can attribute to "die-off" symptoms (1 day of fever, headache, body aches, sore&dry throat and nose, sinus pains, followed by 1 day of all

Hey! You would have to suspend the clay powder in water for days until it expands. It is much easier to use liquid bentonite. Teenagers definitely can, to be safe google "hulda clark children parasite cleanse protocol" and see what they say for 11 yrs and above. Parasite cleanses are good for EVERYONE to do! 🙂

Hi Lexy,<br /><br />When I did the first cleanse I used Ornithine and Arginine but it didn't make any difference (detox or symptom wise). I read online that you don't really need them, so I don't use them anymore when I cleanse!

The coffee enema would be BETTER than the drink!!! You go girl. I didn't want to recommend just an enema because not many people would do them, and I'm not a doctor. The colon cleanse drink works very well but of course, nothing replaces enemas!

Hi Beth! I did not get any die off from Don Croft's zapper. I really love it and use it whenever I feel a little sick. I also put it on my foot under a sock every night to keep parasites dead. I think it does kill more parasites than worms but it HELPS to kill the worms especially if you are using herbs with it. I really hope this works for you. much love xoxo

If I could only find a product that would kill ALL the eggs, then eventually, Diatamaceous Earth would kill the adults, but cloves in capsule and now mixed in liquid form with Humaworm gets only some.<br /><br />Thanks.
Olivia A.
Beth, have you tried a RIFE machine or zapper? Have you tried Don Croft's basic zapper? My best suggestion is find an NAET practicioner (www.naet.com, find a practicioner) as they can individually treat every single different parasite (one at a time).

The tincture was just as good as the capsules and much cheaper. Humaworm is excellent as well, but $39.95.

It is suitable for all people but if you are afraid you can use "Dr. Christopher's Lower Bowel Formula" it is my favorite gentle colon cleanse! I take it whenever I feel constipated. Safe for daily – it is just herbs.<br /><br />http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0014AX9BC/ref=as_li_tf_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B0014AX9BC&linkCode=as2&tag=

Try adding juice from half a lemon to a cup of water and then the tincture. Or even fresh squeezed orange juice. I actually don't mind the taste (just tastes like cloves to me) but I have a hard time with the texture of psyllium husk. On day 7 and still staying strong!
Olivia A.
GREAT advice!! Thank you! Gotta brave it out! xoxo

I diluted it with water (the three droppers fulls) into a shot glass and took it in one gulp and chased it with a glass of water mixed with apple cider vinegar to kill the taste ! Shots all around (: haha

You might not be regular once the parasites are clogging up the colon. You really should take it or another colon cleansing pill like Dr. Christopher's lower bowel formula.

Hey!<br /><br />If you found ONE liver fluke, that's fine – here's some fluke info: "The parasite browses on liver tissue for a period of up to six weeks, and eventually finds its way to the bile duct, where it matures into an adult and begins to produce eggs. Up to 25,000 eggs per day per fluke can be produced."<br /><br />So it's definitely reproducing in there. The other

Hi Daria! You're so welcome and THANK YOU so much for the support.<br /><br />You know, I read that too and that's why I ordered them separately the first time. But I've been using them all together in the tincture and it's going incredibly well. So they still work, don't worry!

Thanks, girl! 😉 I was using only the walnut and wormwood complex with psyllium husks and redmond clay capsules for three days– I'm a little more backed up and today I just got in the mail the complex with all three…and I'm picking up the bentonite clay today. I think I may wait until my stools are normal again before going full out again. Let me know what you think if you get time,

You will get used to it and be happy they're getting out. They all come out dead. Usually you will only see worm-like shapes embedded in your stool. 70% of all parasites that can live in the human body are microscopic – only 30% are visible to the naked eye.

2 weeks, then take a 1 week break and use a lot of probiotics. Then repeat the cleanse as many times as you need with 1 week breaks untl you stop passing worms.

Please let me know how the P. Husk in pill form works! I tried the drink for the first time this morning, and it wasn't hard to drink, but a bit uncomfortable. If it produces the same effects to the same degree, the capsule would definitely just make for a smoother process.
Olivia A.
Unfortunately P. Husk in capsule form is simply not as effective. I asked an old, wise woman at my local herb store. She told me to deal with it cause I need it! Lolol.<br />The best way to take p. husk is with bentonite clay in the water shaken up as I wrote it. It is AMAZING for you, and the most effective colon cleanse you can find.<br />Christina – how did you use diatomaceous earth? I want

Thank you so much! I will order them from iherb next time for sure.<br />I can't wait until you see results from this cleanse. You should feel better very soon. All of your symptoms are parasite related, at least partly. Parasite infestation is growing immensely in America because after about 1930 people forgot the old methods of de-worming! Have your grandparents ever talked about castor oil

I actually use castor oil as a part of my oil cleanse routine. Just a little bit because of it's drying effects but I know it has a lot of uses! P.s. I ordered my products on Wednesday and they came all the way from Cali and got here (Massachusetts) today! Seriously impressed.

Hey I just wanted to give you a big thanks for the iherb.com tip. I just got everything through them including what she recommends for the probiotic.

It would help anyone; There are four classifications of parasites. 30% live in our digestive systems while the other 70% live all over our bodies including, the blood, and all organs including the brain and even in our eyes and sinus cavities. There are over 1,000 types of parasites in these four classes that can live in the human body. Everyone needs to de-worm every 6 months.

I did a liver cleanse first and it took care of my chronic heartburn that I was taking Prilosec for. I am currently doing a parasite cleanse and then will do another liver cleanse. <br />

Hi Olivia! Thanks for writing such an informative and really helpful article on parasites! I've been thinking of doing a parasite cleanse for a few months now but keep putting it off because I wasn't sure if I could handle the detox symptoms. I now have the motivation and confidence to start a parasite cleanse to clear/heal several health issues, which I believe parasites are the cause.
Anthony N
I have something else I wanted to ask. How does this second parasite cleanse with the Now foods tincture compare to the first cleanse you did? Did you experience less detox symptoms for this second cleanse? Was this tincture more effective? Not as effective? Similiar? Or is this question difficult to answer, if it is that's okay I understand. 🙂
Beth
Anthony, Dr. Ohhira's can be purchased on e-bay or All Health Trends for much less than at the health food store. Also Garden Of Life has great probiotics.

no,make sure you use enemas or take lots of laxatives,they will fight the eviction!
