Hello!

"How do we get this stuff (fungi)? Do we eat it? Breathe it? Bad hygiene?"

To answer your questions, Yes, Yes and Yes. This is the hidden danger that people don't realize. Between microscopic molds/fungi and "parasites" these are the greatest dangers that we all face. They silently invade our bodies without us knowing it. We get sick and we don't understand how or why. People are doing cleanses and are on protocols. Some people get better some don't. We all have a general sense about bacteria and what it can do us, but there is more....

The 3 co-factors, as I call them, in combination are dangerous foes -- worm parasites, molds/fungi, and bacteria. The information that I had to clear out animal parasites didn't work! My condition got worse and I wanted to understand why. I did extensive research like crazy -- I'm sure some people think I'm a nut posting so many articles. However, there has to be a learning curve in this somehow with some technical stuff. How can we manage the internal terrain if there is no understanding as to what is going on in the first place?! This also means having some information so that we can now start identify possible causes for symptoms.

The co-factors are truly hidden dangers. I've had to deal with all 3 of them and know what they feel like in the body. Whether you're a layperson or practitioner, these can be complex and overwhelming issues. Speaking from experience, practitioners, in particular, aren't taught a lot about these co-factors and their destruction. Although we may have the best intentions perhaps we're doing more damage or masking the problem when we don't understand what's really going on.



Are we doomed to taking enzyme supplements for the rest of our lives?

I think supplements are helpful -- particularly, the green foods supps. Until you're able to get yourself back to health, I think it is a good idea to help support the immune system in whatever way that you can. Do we need to take them for the rest of our lives? We shouldn't have to!





Does the body have a weapon against such things?

It's suppose to be the immune system. In a post or two that I made, I've discovered that people with good immune systems are being invaded as well. Apxr has found the same thing in his research. Parasites of all kind are slipping in unnoticed by the immune system. What does this mean? I'm not sure. Can things be reversed or can we better protect ourselves somehow? Maybe. I think, in order to protect ourselves we need to remove the harmful organisms and then go from there.

"I think that some liver supporting agents are good to add when a person is struggling with fungi and parasites."

Supporting herbs like Milk thistle, tumeric, burdock root, etc. are good. Micro green food supplements are extremely helpful because they can assist with pulling toxins out of the system.



"I think it's just scary how fungal overgrowth has become such a common problem over the years. We all have fungal bacteria in our bodies to some degree but the balance can be upset so easily, and getting it back is hard since many other microbes and critters have joined the party. Once the fungi have spread outside the GI tract they must be targeted in the gut and in the blood, everywhere.

Not an easy task."

I believe that you've nailed it!
