Re: ID Help- Pinworms?

i call them "snot ropes" because they look like mini ropeworms that are made out of snot. ropeworms are intestinal snot/junk/lymph/god knows what else and they resemble worms... can be small or huge (some a foot or more) all different colors... they look like huge sperm cells. nobody really knows why the body makes them, but they all seem to come at a time when the body is trying to fight off some infection, having an allergic response and is inflamed. i had them coming out my nose every now and then.. like once every 2 years since i was a kid and i'd be sick or having an allergy attack... thats why they never bothered me, but when i saw them come out after enema and laxative teas, it freaked me out a bit. i don't want to tell you the wrong thing, but it has something to do with your immune system responding to either an allergen, an invading organism, die off from parasites or candida, other bacteria etc. and it produces antibodies.. and something about proteins and histamines.. and something about the immune system getting confused and attacking any kind of proteins, even harmless ones. Something to that effect... one of the specialists i was sent to explained it to me in detail but i can't remember exactly.
i'm not sure about your diet... i think any kind of diet change could provoke a reaction and anyone could have food allergies , but that particular diet i don't know much about. if i had to guess, i would guess that the extra meat and protein in a paleo diet wouldn't be very good, but really, i have no clue because i never researched it. some people love it.. so, to each their own. there is no one set diet that the entire world population could benefit from... everyone has different bodies and different needs.
