Re: Lineup

It makes me confused too!!! I also thought that DNA/PCR testing would be the most accurate - at least this is what MM claims. Why doctors here say MM is "unreliable", I can't figure out.

>>This is the problem with medicine, it often is contradictory which IMO creates fear and doubt. In my experience medicine is like throwing darts at a board.


Some labs (amongst them MM, and Doctor's Data) do provide sensitivity testing against the bugs they find.




I am treating cryptosporidium with herbs for now; got Eclectic Intestinal Health (artemisia, clove, Black-Walnut ). It is however not strong enough even though some symptoms have vanished.

So I have investigated other herbs efficient for giardias/amoebas and will give them a try against crypto. I have had giardias and amoebas more than once due to the fact that I lived in Asia, mostly in very wild places, for many many years.

>>Oil of oregano (enteric coated by NOW), myrrh/goldenseal combination, neem, bitter melon, caprylic acid should be effective against them.

Normally, the drug used to eradicate giardias/amoebas is tinidazole. One day for giardiasis, three for amoebas. For cryptosporidium, it is this Nitaxonazide, and I won' touch it because of my liver. Tinidazole is not available in the West however due to its toxicity. But as far as these "azole" compounds are concerned, they're all super toxic, hepatotoxic, carcinogenic, etc. They are basically pesticides. So in this case, self treatment would be dangerous and stupid.

>>I have taken multiple drugs without adverse reactions. If the only way to eradicate them is by drugs then you have no other choice. Self treatment may be the only route you have, this is what I had to do.

But with chemicals, the treatment is short and these protozoa are soon history.

>>Many of the protozoa species will resist natural therapies and you might have to resort to meds. Yes they are used short-term and don't pose threats. Fluoride is probably more toxic than these drugs.

I did two tests because that first doctor didn't trust Metametrix. Then the second test came back no parasites, but candida and yeast (unspecified which one). Actually, results contradict completely - one shows parasites no yeast, the other shows yeast, no parasite. Figure it out. I can't.

I am completely convinced that once the protozoa are out of my system, my gut ecology will be greatly improved.

>>Very true. You might want to visit the parasite Drug forum here on CZ. If you want additional info, PM me, I have alot of resources. Again you might want to look at the ' parasite present, taxonomy unknown' as a possibility of a pathogenic condition. Tweet
