Parasites — The Only Way To Get Rid Of Them

Parasite attacks Woman, created by author with hotpot.ai

If you’re reading this out of curiosity and think you don’t have any parasites in your body, you’re probably wrong. It’s a myth that only humans in second and third-world countries are prone to these little nasty creatures. In fact, it’s not just poor hygiene or low-quality drinking water and food that can lead to parasitic infections. It has a lot to do with your general diet and how well your immune system works.

A weak immune system = Easy access for all kinds of parasites.

One of the main components for a strong immune system is a healthy gut, but people with a Western diet haven’t had a healthy gut for decades now. What used to be healthy food in supermarkets has transformed into chemical-laden ingredients with little nutritional value. Of course, it’s still possible to maintain a healthy diet, but it has become very challenging with what is commonly offered in supermarkets nowadays.

We consume a lot of white sugar, drink excessive amounts of alcohol regularly, and the worst: highly processed foods and fast-food chains.

Parasites love alcohol, white sugar, and everything that’s tasty but unhealthy.

The only way to get rid of parasites isn’t to go through one parasite cleanse after another, only to return to the same diet you had before. You have to create a hostile environment for the parasites long-term. Otherwise, you might end up not just with a weak immune system but also with several diseases.

Research indicates that certain diseases and health issues could potentially be linked to parasitic infections. Some conditions that have been investigated in relation to parasites include digestive issues, skin conditions, general fatigue or weakness, allergies, autoimmune disorders, malnutrition, anaemia, and maybe even cancer or Alzheimer’s (researchers are still debating these last two, but correlations between cancer and Alzheimer’s have been shown in the past).

How do we create a hostile environment for parasites?

How do we create a hostile environment for parasites? First of all, the obvious: eliminate white sugar, alcohol, and processed food. With this change alone, you’re already on a good path. However, if you have parasites in your gut or possibly in other areas of your body, you need to go a step further. Here are some remedies and tips that I use on a daily basis to keep my gut healthy and clean:

  • Drink organic apple cider vinegar: 1 tablespoon in 1/4 liter of filtered fresh water.
  • Use Haritaki powder in shakes or mix it with water. You can add a little honey if you dislike the bitter taste. Be mindful not to use too much as it can have a laxative effect. I prefer using 1/3 of a teaspoon daily in warm filtered water.
  • Reduce your consumption of bread and noodles. Having a little bit is okay, but not with every meal. Essentially, both bread and noodles break down into sugar.
  • Massage your abdomen regularly, and consider an enema occasionally (please consult your doctor beforehand).
  • Work out regularly to keep your core tight.
  • Drink herbal teas like Blue Lotus (known for gut health), Peppermint, wormwood tea, black walnut tea, ginger tea, turmeric tea, and neem tea. I like mixing ginger with turmeric and honey. It tastes delicious!
  • Consider eating a small (!) amount of papaya seeds occasionally, but not more than one teaspoon at a time. They can be very effective against parasites, but eating too many can be toxic. There was a case on TikTok where a girl overdid the parasite cleanse trend with papaya seeds and ended up in hospital.
  • Wash your fruit and veggies in baking soda water to make sure your food is clean.
  • Include probiotic-rich foods like yogurt, kefir, sauerkraut, kimchi in your daily diet. My favorite is kimichi and I even learned how to make it myself because it is so much more cost-effective.
  • Never underestimate the power of garlic in your diet. It’s believed to possess antimicrobial properties that might help deter parasites.
  • Consider taking plant medicine like cat’s claw.

The Result

Healthy me, created by author with hotpot.ai

Since cleansing and maintaining a healthy gut, my skin has improved significantly, and my overall body inflammation has reduced notably. Previously dealing with Fibromyalgia, I relied on painkillers, but now I no longer need any Western medication.

I feel healthier, more energetic, and happier.

Ever heard of the Gut-Brain Axis? Your mood is strongly connected to your gut!

The gut and brain talk to each other through a special connection called the gut-brain axis. Inside the gut, there’s a network of nerves that makes chemicals affecting how we feel, like serotonin. This shows how what happens in our gut can affect our mood and emotions. That is why you feel shit when you eat shit. :)
