Guest guest Posted March 22, 2005 Report Share Posted March 22, 2005 Robin, <As I mentioned, I'm having to take a round of parasite medicine -- basically poisons of course -- and it's obviously an extra load on my very recently recovered liver.> Perhaps you have very good reasons for wanting to get rid of your parasites immediately (sorry, I haven't been following this thread), but if your symptoms aren't too severe or overwhelming, you might want to give those critters (and your recovering liver) some time. Time for what? Well, there is a school of thought that says parasites are there for a purpose--namely cleaning up dead or decaying tissue--and that when their job is done they move out on their own. Again, my apologies if this has been covered already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have also heard this - that some parasites serve a purpose and that if you concentrate on your general health, and obtain good health, the parasites will leave. I watched a documentary last week on parasites that mentioned studies in a Central American country where most of the children have parasites. The hypothesis was that these children, who were free of allergies such as hayfever, and eczema, and a few other things (can't remember what) would tend to develop the same if their parasites were eliminated. They got rid of the parasites and the allergies etc. began cropping up. I wondered if they considered the allergies etc. being in reponse to the medication used to eliminate the parasites, but I think it was said that when the parasites reinfested, the allergies disappeared. Having said this, we've all had symptoms of parasites for a few years - grinding teeth, itchy nose, ears and eyes and bum, and I would like to get rid of them.

Guest guest Posted March 22, 2005 Report Share Posted March 22, 2005 I also heard somewhere that crohn's disease is rare in places where people have parasites.
