Understanding the Need for a Parasite Cleanse

A parasite cleanse is designed to eliminate chronic parasitic infections that can be an unsuspected cause of various digestive and systemic symptoms. 

The cleanse focuses on supporting gut health overall and changing the gastrointestinal environment to deter parasites. We discuss gut health and parasite cleanses here.

The Role of Diet and Herbal Medicine in a Parasite Cleanse

Diet is a critical strategy in altering the environment within the gastrointestinal tract to make it less hospitable for parasites. However, diet alone is not sufficient to eradicate infestations. As such, herbal medicine becomes an essential part of the treatment plan for a parasite cleanse.

It’s generally agreed upon that antibiotic use should be reserved for cases that fail to respond to these initial natural measures.

Anthelmintic herbs, known for their ability to expel intestinal worms or parasites, have been utilised since ancient Egyptian and Roman times. Due to their naturally bitter properties, many of these herbal formulations are available in convenient tablet form, making them more palatable for daily consumption.

The Do’s and Don’ts of a Parasite Cleanse

Do:

• Get tested first by your Naturopath to accurately identify the infection.
• Retest after treatment to ensure the infection has been cleared (wait at least 10 days post-treatment).
• Adjust your diet accordingly, with removing sugar being a beneficial starting point. Try this parasite cleansing recipe.
• Take a multi-pronged approach to not just eradicate the parasites but also address nutrient deficiencies.
• Consider getting family members tested as well, to prevent reinfection.

Don’t:

• Self-prescribe medicines without professional guidance.
• Use Diatomaceous Earth as a treatment method.
• Start with antibiotic treatment without trying natural measures first.
