People talk about "scattering", but how can anyone really know if that is happenings? It is totally subjective, seems to me.

If you take DE on an empty stomach, maybe with some juice, maybe some will scatter, but lots will die. When I took DE that way for the first time, using cayenne pepper which always shows if they are "in there" - all the "white rice" from Tapeworms segments disappeared from my bowel movements.

After a couple of months of this, I stopped the DE for 2 weeks. Still saw no "white rice", tho I do maintainence. Where would they have scattered to? If so, wouldn't they come back?

Some say DE's silica gets into the blood stream & kills the bugs there, too. I don't know.

I just know DE worked for me with no side effects except stronger nails and more taut skin. (Yeah!)

It would be very difficult for a large parasite to scatter for it could not get through the intestinal wall. However the parasite eggs, especially flukes ova can hatch in the intestine and the larvae can bore through the intestinal wall, gall bladder wall or bile duct in the liver wall and migrate through the tissues. This can happen more often if the intestinal contents are moving through a person slowly giving time for the ova to hatch. This is one reason Hulda Clark advises taking fresh ground cloves to kill the ova before they hatch.

The larva migrating through the tissues will eventually come to rest almost anywhere in the body and usually become encysted. Only a few of the larva cause inflamation - like larval migrans. It seems that using herbal parasite herbs in addition to the DE is a good idea.
