Guest guest Posted September 7, 2008 Report Share Posted September 7, 2008 Hi, patty, and thanks for responding! I do not think that I have one; but from many articles and such, I see several recommendations for a parasite cleanse- " that everyone has them... " The thought just sickens me, but if " everyone " has them, then I was just wondering what happens if you do a " parasite cleanse. " Lori Hi Lori I'm not really sold on the " internal cleanse " concept, but you could try activated charcoal. This is what they use in ER's if they think someone has swallowed poison. The charcoal adsorbs the toxins and then they pass right out of you. You can buy it in capsule form. You don't want to take charcoal all the time because it will also adsorb nutrients from the food you eat. Regarding the parasite cleanse, what makes you think you have a parasite? Was a stool sample done or something? Patty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 7, 2008 Report Share Posted September 7, 2008 Hi Lori I don't mean to cast aspersions on the people selling those remedies, but I am really skeptical of the claim that we are all going around with parasites in our gut. If you have a parasite, it should show up on a stool sample. Then, by all means, treat it. But rule #1 for me is : Don't treat what 'ya ain't got. Best of health to 'ya!
