Hi Kathy,

Glad to see you are still out there in the world working at living well!

Also that you are working with your daughter to balance out her menses. I wish I had my health library handy however, it is in storage. I can still recommend kelp capsules although I am sure your research has also offered many other options.

Sorry to hear about Natasha. As a youngster, my brothers and I had two white hamsters named Snowball and SnowFlake. We were on our porch playing with them and a neighbor who was a mean spirited person allowed his dog "Freddie" to snatch them up and kill them. We sure loved them while we could and never did forget the mean neighbor, Joe Fondo, and his killer dog, Freddie!

You are very right that Owen is a sweetheart and so willing to share his wisdom and research. I like to check out his website and postings too. Let me know what ultimately you find that works for you daughter. For my daughter and I, her beginning her menses was a big deal. I had my friends over and we threw a party for her. It was bonding too to demonstrate on myself how to insert a tampon and then she tried it on herself...that kind of stuff my mom would never have addressed. She always referred to my special parts as *down there*...ggg. I enjoy a more comfortable relationship and my daughter and I laugh because so often we cycle together or a day or two apart.

I cannot recommend fasting while doing a parasite cleanse. If you were taking a liquid perhaps since I also use a parasite homeopathic formula which my friend brought me from Germany. I cannot even understand the instructions but she told me the dosage. Still, I could take those with my extensive cleansing, and not have a problem with excessive die-off. I parasite cleanse routinely just because I know it is probable I am getting something. Your bloat and hunger suggest you are just dealing with it so you may want to be aggressive. Begin with a 30 day cleanse and if you still have symptoms, do it again. My naturopath uses Orea cookies to lure her parasites out from inside organs where many live. I have my late summer and fall cleansing strategy forming and it looks intense. Candida first and then parasites, parasites, and then a November 14 day OJ fast when the new crop of oranges comes in. I am hoping there are no hurricanes here in Texas to contend with since pyschically, it can be difficult for me to focus on cleansing when I am stringing electrical lines to generators and filling up barrels so we have water when power goes out.



No need either to lower the recommended dose. Just be sure to drink plenty of water to keep the toxins moving. The parasites often shed a gazillion eggs when they are dying and do not go without a fight. In between, they defecate in your bloodstream and that contributes greatly to feeling bad.

I watched a NOVA program once on parasites which really had an effect on me.

I lost my innocence watching the footage where they microscopically watched parasites doing nasty stuff in your body. I also watched my own parasites on a dark field study and my naturopath pointed out the different ones. I got to see my candida "bloom" once it figured it was outside the body. The test requires a drop or two of blood. My husband had it done and had a blood parasite so rare my naturopath called in her students to show it to them. It was weird looking. You also get to watch your blood cells battle these invaders and I realized how important it was to keep my immune system up. I consider myself a passive person and yet, I had war going on in my body! So, once I began to give my body help in fighting off the intruders I began to heal and feel better. Your parasite cleanse is just the ammunition your body needs to help it fight the battle against the parasites. It will all take time so be patient. Certainly, unless you live in a bubble, you will want to keep up your parasite protocol annually if not bi-annually.
The headaches and gut ache are detoxing symptoms. Again, water will help flush the waste out as fast as it can. If it gets too intense, and it can, lower the dose or quit for a day so your body can catch up. I had that happen when I was eating Oil of Oregano capsules...whew...did I stir up my hornets nest!!

Let me know how it goes for you!

Are you getting to go home in August?? I am leaving next week for a week with my daughter. I will visit my storage, toss down some mouse pellets and say a prayer all is well until the next time...ggg.

I wish you the best!

blessings,
Zoe
