Re: How do we get liver flukes

From your messages it seems that you are doing quite a bit in protecting your family from infection by parasites. And as you learn more you will do a better job of it. Hulda Clark points out that we do acquire parasites and can kill most of them off and that one of the first steps in keeping free of parasites takes advantaves of our natural resistance to becoming infected. She advised killing parasites and then improving the digestive system as the strong acids in the stomach and good digestion of foods will prevent their growth. The immune system also needs to be healthy. Pollutants of all sorts need to be cleared from the body and some of them promote parasite growth. Clark stresses the importance of good bathroom and kitchen sanitation. So in Clark's programs a person first kills parasites then continues on to do a variety of cleanses, detoxs, environmental cleanups and doing regular parasite maintenance programs.

It is impossible to keep animals free of parasites, to always get parasite free foods but we do learn to protect ourselves.

Vets use Diagnostech Labs and several people have ordered the tests for parasites through them. See their website.

There are some underlying conditions which leave a person more likely to acquire parasites. In my case I have Celiac Disease and did not know to strictly avoid gluten in wheat, barley, rye. This problem is very common and the tendency to develop problems is inherited. This and other problems which cause intestinal and immune system problems seems to make people more succeptable. Children and adults who have persistant intestinal problems need to have diagnostic tests to rule this out. Metametrix Labs enteric effects panel includes tests for this problem.
