MCW- I think you have probably heard everything I have to say on the parasite issue. You might get more response if you post this over on the parasite support forum.

Best to you!

Hi M,

I have found the parasite testing to be completely useless. I was sick with them for over a year and a half and am still working on getting rid of them despite the fact that my tests came up negative.

The product I started with is called Wormwood Complex and it's from Standard Process. I passed worms within days of taking this. It's quite pricey however so after taking Mebendazole (medication) I am now doing my own herbs. I order from Pacific Botanicals and get sweet annie(wormwood), Black-Walnut powder, and cloves. These are the three main parasite cleansing herbs.

After my second round of meds I noticed a dramatic increase in my energy.

If you're not sure if you have parasites you could just start with the herbs. Cloves are also good for inflammation and candida. Black-Walnut is a good for various infections. Wormwood is also good for lyme coinfections.

All the best to you!

Hi MCW,

I found out about viruses by luck...a doctor abroad listen to my story about chronic fatigue and so on and ask me if I tested for CMV and EBV. it seems many people have them but when you get infected first time can put you down...or later they can do the same if your immune system is off by others stressor/infections...they could be also a main cause of AF as i found out later (as parasites also can).

there are some blood test for CMV EBV which check your "load" of them at one point in time. there are also some rx antiviral that help but im just learning about...

What i know helps me keep them at bay is vit.C and coconut oil...for the moment. there probably are some antiviral herbs maybe onwards has an idea...check also zappers
The approach i've read as being best is work first on big ones than bacteria than viruses. Diet is important also for viruses. vitC and COFFEE (yes coffee) help detoxifing some of viruses toxins but is nono for AF.

regarding ...here is my experience
"- a good probiotic - which is the best?
>> depends on your situation your digestive system...if you tolerate milk products...best approach is start slow
- apple cider vinegar
>> good for parasites and candida and stuff BUT very bad if you have AF
- raw garlic cloves
>> good stuff worth to try it BUT if you have AF watch the dose: its potassium food and its hipoglicemic also
- clark protocol
>> i did a similar one but not exactly the same. the original Wormwood dosage was too strong for my liver

I would start with garlic first or mebendazole - that would definitively get some off them out if you have them.
good luck

"I know Onwards posted an excellant video recently" - where is it man? about what? did I miss it :)?)

Hmm, well it depends.

If you think you really have parasites, or you might, I might recommend Humaworm. It's cheap and non-invasive. But it does have side effects, or it did for me, but I think that was the product of parasites dying which meant it was working.

If you don't want to go that far, some ACV or raw garlic or tumeric can be good in general to keep candida and parasites in check. However, I doubt they will do any major killing of the bad guys.

I take a little ACV, Kefir, and tumeric to try and keep the bad guys under control, but occasionally under-go more intense measures to try to actually kill them off.

MCW- Has this been mentioned already? I'm taking Organic Bioavailable Sulfur. You may want to look into it if you have a chance.

I saw and felt an immediate and big improvement in well-being from the very 1st time I took it.. At that time I really needed it, as I had just come off 3 months of taking Limcomin.

Sulfur has been missing from our diets since about 1954 when the natural Sulfur cycle was broken. Apparently, we are all deficient.

Here's a good website to read about it if you are interested:

Cheers

Parasites

One of the most amazing discoveries on MSM is its anti-parasitic action against Giardia, Trichomonas, roundworms, nematodes, Enterobius and other intestinal worms (5). Animal studies include laboratory mice determined to have pin worms (Enterobius) by fecal cast examination. They were given commercial food and drinking water, both containing 2% MSM by weight. After 17 days, fecal examination indicated the feces were free of worms and eggs. The blood level of MSM in one animal examined exceeded 30 ppm or mg/kg (3). Human studies include a man with confirmed Giardia lamblia, apparently contacted from contaminated water in a primitive area. He was given 500 mg MSM three times a day for 14 days. By the eighth day he was free of symptoms, and two stool specimens collected one week later were free of the organism (3). In another study, Trichomonas vaginalis was successfully treated by oral dosage of 1 gram MSM a day, and a daily topical application of 5% aqueous MSM for one week (3).

The major antiparasitic property of MSM stems from its ability to bind to the mucosa and present a natural blocking interface between hosts and parasites. It's as though MSM puts down a coating on the mucosa, which parasites find impenetrable and can't cling to. Unable to stick, the parasites are simply flushed out of the body (5, 9). In vitro research has shown the antiparasitic, antifungal and antibacterial action of MSM concentrations. MSM concentrations of 1 mg/mL and less demonstrated no significant inhibition of Giardia lamblia. However, at 20 mg/mL concentrations it was strongly inhibitory, and concentrations above 40 mg/mL promptly killed the organism. According to Dr. Herschler, one can safely administer up to 1-2 grams of MSM per kilogram of body weight on a daily basis. One therefore builds a safely tolerated blood level up to 4000 ppm (mg/kg), a level highly toxic to many infective organisms yet harmless to the host (3).

A growing number of natural physicians are expressing concerns about parasites. It is becoming increasingly clear that they can be a continuous source of poisoning which can spread throughout the body and affect the immune system. It is an intriguing thought that MSM may be nature's original means of protecting us against parasites.

Detoxification

MSM dissolves in many organic and inorganic compounds (1). Bound to the mucosa and split into an electron deficient group CH3SO2., MSM reacts with toxins, affects inactivation and speeds excretion (4). Furthermore, MSM enhances the permeability of cell membranes, making it easier for nutrients to be taken up by the cells, and waste products to be eliminated. Practically speaking, MSM drastically increases the ability of cells to excrete toxic waste products. Many health practitioners working with MSM will state that it is the most powerful detoxifying nutraceutical or pharmaceutical agent they have ever worked with.

A recent example shows the dramatic detoxification action of MSM. A young artist sought help in a psychiatric institution for severe mental complaints. Antidepressants worsened his complaints to such degree that he decided to look for alternative care. Microscopic examination of his blood using the Life Blood / HLB test showed that the man suffered from heavy metal poisoning caused by the paints which he used in his art work. This person subsequently sought the help of various traditional and alternative medical professionals who prescribed various pharmaceutical drugs, homeopathic and orthomolecular detoxifiers as well as bioresonance therapy. After one and one half years of detoxification the blood picture had somewhat improved, but he still exhibited severe toxicity symptoms (Figure a).






Figure a Figure b

One and one half years later, his blood had improved somewhat but his basic complaints had remained unchanged. On the advice of the author, this man stopped taking the medications received so far, and was put on high dosages of MSM (15 grams/day), supported by weekly Ayurvedic sweat baths to stimulate waste discharge. Two months later a microscopic examination showed that his blood had returned to normal (Figure b), and he indicated that, for the first time since seeking treatment, he had noticed a significant improvement in his condition.


Neurological Diseases

The brain is extremely sensitive to the effects of toxic materials such as heavy metals and organic compounds. Many of these compounds tend to accumulate in nerve cells where they can cause severe oxidative damage. Neurological disturbances may be the result. MSM is one of the few antioxidants which can easily pass the blood-brain barrier. It prevents and repairs oxidative damage and restores cell membrane elasticity and permeability. This allows the nerve cells to start excreting waste products.

The powerful action of MSM is illustrated in the following example. An older woman suffered from poisoning caused by exposure to aluminum. This heavy metal had accumulated in her brain and caused severe neurological damage. The woman had been confined to her bed for six years, unable to communicate with her surroundings. All this time she had not spoken a word. Medical doctors could no longer help her and had given up on her. She was completely dependent on her husband who took complete care of her needs. A natural health care practitioner advised two teaspoons of MSM (about 15 grams) daily. The MSM passed the blood brain barrier, and restored the permeability of the brain cell membranes, allowing her brain cells to purge the heavy metal poisons. Two weeks later, the orthomolecular physician prescribed a warm bath to help her eliminate the released poisons through the skin. After twenty minutes in this bath, the woman suddenly smiled and said "Gee, I feel much better now." These were the first words she had spoken in years. Several months later, the woman was capable of leading a normal life again (7).
