Re: At Wits End, Curezone Your My Only Friend

I agree that you can't count on the tests. I have seen several people post here on CZ that they put live, wiggling, bugs into their stool samples only to be told later that the lab said they had no parasites!

The docs seem to be in denial. That doctor needs to take the cayenne pepper challenge test & realize that he has parasites - ditto his family. They are incredibly insidious but you can find them if you know how to look - and that's generally through paracides not lab tests.

Killing parasites can take months and then you need to do maintenance for life. However, I suspect there is more going on with you than "just" parasites, though I don't know what.

Did you keep doing Liver Flushes until you had at least 2 consecutive flushes where you saw less than say 3 or 4 stones? If not, I'm guessing you still are having problems. Milk thistle is very good for the liver and taking it several times a day might help.

However, it is generally best not to do a Liver Flush until after at least a month of intense parasite killing, then maybe a month of zapping plus paracides.

I'm sorry to tell you that you are probably not going to feel well soon but you sound determined and that is what is needed.

There are so many other things that can be involved. Any diagnostic testing for things like thyroid, adrenals, mercury, iron and amino acid levels, D3 (best source is sunshine, see Dr. Mercola site on that) gluten or wheat sensitivity, can be great. Are you getting enough fresh air and exercising regularly? Are you getting at least 8 hours of sleep at night & trying to go to bed at the same time? For the adrenals going to bed at 10PM is best and your adrenals probably have been stressed and are likely to be stressed with cleansing. If you feel die off, sleep more, as much as you want!

And btw having insomnia at night can be a symptom of low adrenals, especially if you have a hard time getting up and seem to perk up in the evening. You must find a doc who will do urine testing not blood testing.

Too much fasting, on fruit or anything else, can stress the adrenals and starve the body. We need a variety of things from a variety of foods in order to be healthy.

I would give up all soy and corn and wheat and only eat organic. It is unreal what they are doing to the food supply these days. Eat lots of fresh fruits & veggies as you need those enzymes. You might want to take digestive enzymes and probiotics (Vitacost has great prices on supplements) too since you sound so weak and vulnerable.

I may have already given you the info below, but just in case will cut & paste it for you again.

Personally I did many cleanses of different kinds but it wasn't until I got rid of candida - and wheat and gluten - that I got my health back. But there is trial and error and everyone is a bit different. There is info on how to check for candida below, too.

Some cut & pastes of things that helped me in case any of it can help you:

Disclaimer: Humanworm is mentioned in the first link and it used to get great reports here on CZ but in past months some people complained about it not being as good as in the past (though some lately say it is back to its former quality) so you may want to try something like Clarkia or the other standard herbicides.


See link below for cayenne pepper (using organic powder from the grocery is better than capsules) challenge test to see if you or any loved ones have Tapeworms Sometimes one sees sesame seed looking things, or “blanched almonds” but usually “white rice” in the stools, for example. Many people have found parasites this way, parasites that lab tests said they didn’t have. Hulda Clark says everyone she ever lab tested had Tapeworms & everyone had other kinds of parasites as well.

Another approach to tapeworms, also ascaris:

RE parasites, low enemas can help reveal what bugs are dying without any “digging around.” Enema bags are cheap & online or at drug stores. The net has many sites telling how to use them. Use 2 cups filtered water only per bag at a time. You don’t want to go too high and wash away good intestinal bacteria. (On occasion, to relieve really bad constipation, you can go higher, though. Preferably less than one time per week.) Add some plain, no sugar, yogurt with acidophilus, or “live cultures” to the last bag & eat some. This kind of yogurt is easy to find at most grocery stores. The enemas can also help combat the constipation often associated with initial stages of parasite killing and just help speed up the cleansing process in general.

Also, many people are not aware that they are gluten sensitive, maybe even have celiac. A gluten sensitivity test can help. Even if one shows up just at Level 1 in sensitivity, that means the intestinal villi have been damaged & nutrients are not getting through as they should. Also where gluten sensitivity is, candida is probably lurking.

Candida may be lurking regardless. One way you may find it is by doing low enemas, mixing water with apple cider vinegar or 3% hydrogen peroxide. Tea made from Quassia wood chips can also kill some parasites as well as candida. Kefir enemas can also be helpful. Use enemas after a bowel movement. If after such enemas you see things that look like string cheese or yellow gel, or white things that look like pieces of tissue paper, then you know a candida cleanse needs to be done. (Sometimes the candida looks like dark seaweed or brown crusts with mucous.) Another tip off is that, after you do the enemas you may have temporary die off in the form of cold or flu like symptoms or some itchiness & twitchiness. I'd personally get rid of the parasites first. Both cleanses cause die off and you don't want to overdo it. Cleanses do put extra stress on the adrenals.

Some people say everyone who has had Antibiotics has candida cleansing to do.

SOME HELPS FOR CONSTIPATION & JUST TO UNBLOCK THE BOWELS WHILE CLEANSING:
If you eat 2 quarts of airpopped, hopefully organic, popcorn with minimal to no oil or butter (maybe some coconut oil) and a small Watermelon all in one day you should start getting cleaned out due to all that roughage for one thing.
Taking 2-3 capsules of magnesium before bedtime has helped many people. I personally think brand can make all the difference and have found Twinlab (cheaper at places like Vitacost & iherb) to be very good.

Some people really like Oxypowder but I have found that it seems to deplete my electrolytes or something because it made me feel very tired after a couple of days.
Blessed Herbs is, mho, the best bowel cleanser, but pricey.

You can do maybe 1 high enema a week w/o getting dependent on enemas, and low enemas (2-4 cups at a time) will cause no dependency so use as often as helpful. Be sure to eat acidoophilus yogurt to replenish good bacteria. Dannon sells this in the plain, usually non fat, no Sugar etc. added version.

Some people use cascara sagara and it is effective, but you can get dependent on it. One way to counteract that dependency at least somewhat, if you find it's all that works, is to not take it every day. Chia seeds mixed in with soup or green drinks can be very helpful – though it may take a week or two for the effect to be seen.
It wouldn't hurt to put some quassia "tea" (you buy the chips & let them steep in hot water just like tea) and/or Black-Walnut or Black-Walnut /womrwood (again available at places like Vitacost) tincture into the last enema bag, and they can help kill any parasites.
GENTLE Liver Flushes (Best not to do until a month of paracides & maybe a month of paracides plus a zapper.)
I will tell you what worked for me and it was gentle. It is a slight variation on the usual kind of flush found on CZ & elsewhere. It can help expel not only stones but parasites. I had no grapefruit juice becaue it can interfere with some meds. Orange juice worked every bit as well. No Epsom Salts . It can be harsh & I never needed it. Prepare a quart of water with about 3-4 tbsp of apple cider vinegar in it, sipped on from the morning to the evening of the flush. (Some people drink a quart of apple juice instead but I didn't want the sugar, but it works fine too.)

When I had that drink it made all the difference in how many stones I got out.

Then the usual. Stop eating after about 3PM and limit the fats to virtually none before then. Right before lying down drink the extra virgin olive oil + orange juice (abt 1/2 cup of each) quickly. I found it helped to use a straw positioned at the back of my mouth to avoid the taste as much as possible and to have a good tasting lozenge type supplement right after.

It seems to help to lie on your right side for at least 1/2 hour before falling asleep.
The next morning (best to do this on a weekend for sure) have a little bottle of magnesium citrate. Wait about 6 hours and do several low enemas to help cleanse out the stones. This also lets you know how many you got out, too. You may see bugs, most commonly liver flukes.
Eat some plain acidophilus yogurt with no Sugar (Dannon’s is such a popular brand available at most grocery stores) to replace bacterial flora and be sure you get plenty of electrolytes in your diet the next few days.
If this makes you feel ill, you may need to work on parasite cleansing for awhile first.
Repeat biweekly as possible until 2 consecutive flushes reveal no more than very few stones.

Enemas for Candida/Yeast
You might want to research on the web how yeast can adapt & morph after prolonged exposure to one kind of "yeast-a-cide" or another, & alternate what you use for killing it. One thing it will never adapt to are very helpful enemas using apple cider vinegar or else 3% hydrogen peroxide. (Maybe a tbsp of each to each cup of filtered water, but experiment.)

It helps to put acidophilus yogurt and/or kefir into the last bag in order to replenish good flora, and to eat a bit daily. (Kefir will intensify any die off though.)

Those enemas will really help clean yeast/candida from the colon (after a bowel movement of course) but can also cause more die off. It may take a great many of them to get rid of it all but if you are like me you will start to feel like a new person when it is gone. Changing your diet is essential however and wheat, gluten and Sugar are the worst offenders. (I personally think fresh organic fruit & dried strawberries & blueberries – plus you need blue things in your diet & only blueberries give it – do not hurt.)
MAINTENANCE
I plan to stay on ma
intenance for life. You never really know if you killed every last bug (maybe with Rife, maybe not, but I can't use that since its for those who are on no meds) and it just takes one to start things all over. You never really know if when you touched a grocery cart or opened a bathroom door that you didn't pick up some eggs. They even can blow into your nostrils through a blast of air outside!
I can't say that what I do is perfect, but I can say that I don't see parasites anymore.
Every single day I zap for at least an hour while at the computer. I prefer to zap at the elbows and/or ankles where the blood tontinually flows through the arteries.
Every single morning on an empty stomach(except for my meds and some supplements) I have some homemade Colloidal Silver (must be made with distilled water and its cheap to make your own & Utopia-Silver is where I got my silver maker) to which I add a couple of drops of Aura Cacia Peppermint essential oil, a couple of shakes of organic cayenne pepper, and about 2/3 of an eye dropper of Vitacost Black-Walnut tincture, alternated daily with their Black Walnut/Wormwood tincture. This drink does NOT taste good! That’s why I have a good tasting supplement in lozenge form afterwards.

Almost every single day I have a green drink (things like powdered wheatgrass, barley & fennel seed) to which I add at least ½ tsp. of Pharmaguard Diatomaceous earth. I usually don’t have much in my stomach at that time.
I eat very, very well cooked meat.

From time to time I also drink Quassia woodchip tea and/or do a Quassia woodchip tea enema. I have found this is very effective against both bugs and candida. (But you don't want to be attacking candida until the bugs are mostly dead due to too much die off.)

I'm not an expert, just someone who has gone through trial & error, like you, and found what works for me. So far anyway! :-)
