Parasites Be Gone! My Go-To Antiparasitic Regimen
Let's talk about how to sync your anti-parasitic regimen with the lunar cycle for maximum efficacy!
This week we’ve been talking about the role of the lunar cycle in our frequency spectrum - and the effects of parasites on the body…But did you know that there is an innate connection between parasitic activity and the lunar cycle?
Here’s why:
The body’s circadian rhythms correspond to the cycling of the moon. During the lunar cycle, we experience changes in certain neurotransmitters. In particular, the full moon corresponds with a decrease in melatonin and an increase in serotonin.
Less available melatonin may decrease immune function, making the body less adept at fending off parasites; while a surge of serotonin actually excites and feeds parasites, optimizing their breeding conditions.
Therefore, if you are struggling with a parasitic load, you may find yourself feeling more sluggish, inflamed, flu-ey or digestively impaired around the full moon. To disrupt this parasitic cycling, I have developed a rule of thumb for my parasitically-challenged clients during the lunar cycle:
Take your recommended antiparasitic regimen for a full 30 days - then, repeat the regimen 3 days before the full moon, on the day itself, and for 3 days after, for three months following your first 30 day cycle.
Bookending this circadian rhythm with a 7-day preventative protocol after your first full month of antiparasitics can do wonders for minimizing the effects of parasitic activity.
So which antiparasitics do I recommend?
My favorites include:
- Papain & Papaya seeds
- Clove (liquid form is easy to add to water or tea)
- Wormwood
- Black Walnut
- Activated charcoal
- My personally formulated anti-microbial, antiparasitic blend, Immune Mover
- Mastic gum for healing & sealing the gut
- Non aspergillus-based digestive enzymes (I like papaya enzymes, especially for children)
Combining a prophylactic like Immune Mover with a papaya-based digestive enzyme and avoiding undercooked meats, sushi or raw vegetables for the 7 day full moon cycle is a solid place to start.
