Parasites – the very thought
of them makes your skin crawl.
Under a microscope you can see hundreds of
dust mites and bed bugs. Those are the parasites
you can see but what about the ones you can’t?
What’s lurking around your system?
Normally, good and bad bacteria can live in
complete harmony with each other but when parasites
invade they cause all kinds of problems. Bad
overcomes Good.
The black shadows under your eyes may not just
be a result of excessive indulgence and then
there’s an itchy nose and, even more embarrassing,
an itchy bottom.
Your sleep may be restless and you feel nervous
without a valid reason. You may even grind your
teeth and leave damp patches on the pillow -
salivating in your sleep isn’t pleasant.
These symptoms may be signs of intestinal parasites.
In the past your Grandmother would have given
you some dreadful concoction to drink with the
exhortation ‘it’ll do you good’.
She was right, herbs can really sort out intestinal
parasites but where’s Grandma when you
need her?
We worm our pets but not ourselves. We need
it as much as they do - there are all kinds
of nasty things invading our systems –
one cubic inch of beef can have over 1,000 living
parasite larvae waiting to hatch in your body!
It’s enough to turn you Vegetarian but
even a vegetarian can have problems.
The threadworm (Oxyuris vermicularis to the
Romans) and the roundworm (Ascaris lumbricoides)
excrete toxic by-products – the little
so and sos are then absorbed by our bodies which
then change our blood composition.
Roundworm eggs can be transmitted from vegetables
fertilised with liquid manure and develop into
small larvae which penetrate the intestinal
wall and are carried to the lungs where they
settle and develop. We’re now
in deep shit!
You might think you’re suffering from
a stubborn case of bronchitis but the real problem
could be an infestation of worms. Worms!! The
thought horrifies. And well it might.
Worms can migrate back to the digestive tract
and mature causing obstructions in the bowel
– or they can migrate to the bile ducts
causing jaundice.
Roundworms lay more than 200,000 eggs a day!
All this migration going on inside you –
no wonder you’re restless. We’re
not even going to go into the Hookworm scenario.
There’s a lot more that these little
so-and-sos do to you – they absorb the
essential substances you need so you don’t
get the nutrients from food. They’re clever
little so-and-sos too, they prevent themselves
from de-worming by burying themselves inside
or underneath impacted material in the colon.
They can stay there like uninvited guests until
the old faecal layers are removed and the ‘good’
bacteria are victorious.
How
can we get rid of threadworms & roundworms?
A purified diet helps. Parasites thrive upon
undigested proteins, carbohydrates and processed
foods.
Junk foods are foods made with white flour,
sugar, salted and smoked foods, processed cereals
and any other ‘foods’ that are in
an unnatural state. These foods overwork the
body and strain the immune system.
Eat healthily and use herbal products such
as Artemisia Complex and Paragard. Any health
shop will be able to recommend something.
