Many health practitioners claim that if you have a pulse, you likely have parasites. While this might sound dramatic, it is closer to reality than you might think. We encounter parasites regularly, but when our immune systems are robust and our gut health is optimal, our bodies can effectively manage these intruders. The real concern arises when stress, poor nutrition, and burnout compromise our defenses, allowing opportunistic parasites to settle in.
You might be wondering,
Could this really be true for me? Wouldn’t I know if I had parasites?
In fact, it is estimated that about 70% of people may harbor parasites without being aware of it.
How Can You Be Exposed to Parasites?
The potential for parasite exposure is everywhere. Here are some common ways you might encounter them:
- Consuming undercooked or contaminated food
- Drinking untreated water
- Traveling to areas with poor sanitation
- Contact with infected pets or animals
While this list might seem daunting, the key takeaway is to live life fully—enjoy the lakes, savor delicious meals, and embrace human connection. Just focus on strengthening your immune system and nurturing your gut health. This way, when exposure occurs (because it will), your body will be well-equipped to handle it.
Are Parasites Behind Your Chronic Symptoms?
Parasites can complicate health issues by coexisting with mold, viruses, chemicals, candida, Lyme disease, and heavy metals. If you are struggling with something like mold toxicity, addressing parasitic infections is crucial for effective treatment. The weaker your immune system, the more susceptible you are to these unwelcome guests.
Here are some common symptoms that may indicate a parasitic infection:
- Digestive issues
- Fatigue
- Unexplained weight changes
- Skin rashes
- Brain fog
- Teeth grinding
- Insomnia
- Mood swings
- Anemia
- Headaches
Interestingly, you might notice your symptoms worsening around the full moon. This phenomenon relates to changes in melatonin and serotonin levels. When melatonin dips, it can hinder your immune response, while parasites thrive in a serotonin-rich environment, which helps them reproduce and spread. This is why many practitioners time treatments to coincide with the full moon.
Nutritional Strategies to Combat Parasites
To support your body in combating parasites, here are some nutrition tips to incorporate while you work on enhancing your drainage pathways:
- Raw Garlic: Add it to your meals daily for its natural anti-parasitic properties.
- Consume coconut oil daily for the anti-parasitic effects from the caprylic acid found in coconut oil.
- Add apple cider vinegar to warm water with lemon to alter your body’s pH and help with parasite die-off.
- Add ginger root to hot water and drink as a tea or add it to your food. Ginger can alter the production of stomach acid, killing parasites and preventing infections
