There are a LOT of really harsh protocols out there for parasite cleansing and there’s a LOT of fear-based info out there on social media, regarding parasites. Many of these fear-based posts also come with recommendations for you to buy harsh herbal or pharmaceutical protocols, which have you cleansing for months and months on end.
Cleansing too aggressively will strip away too much of your good gut microbiome, which will lead to worsening issues, down the road. Plus, there’s usually no mention of focusing on drainage/foundational protocols for 1-3 months first, in order to prepare your body for such an aggressive cleanse!
These protocols also leave out bio-individuality, which is a travesty! We are not all the same, so what works for one person doesn’t always work for another. These harsh, one-size-fits-all protocols can be extremely dangerous and so many people go in blindly, without realizing the harm they can cause.
I’ve seen way too many clients make this mistake and end up hospitalized, or with worsening health issues in the long run. If you’ve read anything about my personal healing journey, you’ll know that I also dove right into parasite cleansing very aggressively, without prepping my body, or having any knowledge about bio-individuality. I ended up losing my hair to the point of having to shave my head, as well as having horrible reactions to the herbs and pharmaceuticals I was using.
What most people fail to understand is this…you can cleanse until you’re blue in the face, but most of the time, the body will NOT react positively, or even let go of toxins and an overgrowth of parasites/pathogens well, unless it feels safe and relaxed!
Yes, an overgrowth of parasites/pathogens can cause some pretty scary health issues and yes, we DO want to address the overgrowth, but we cannot forget that we also NEED some parasites/pathogens in us…they actually help our immune system and mop up other toxins, so there has to be balance.
So many so-called “parasite experts” forget about addressing the MOST IMPORTANT step….”What allowed these parasites and pathogens to get overgrown in the first place?”
The things mentioned below absolutely have to be addressed, or it won't matter what you throw at the parasites/pathogens. They will just keep getting more overgrown, as a way to protect you.
Parasites and other pathogens will thrive in your body if you have the following:
*Deficiencies in vitamins and minerals
*Low stomach acid, bile production, & enzyme production
*Exposures to toxins, like mold, heavy metals, plastics, chemicals, wifi radiation, electromagnetic frequencies, etc
*Antibiotic use and the use of prescription meds/over-the-counter meds
*Poor diet, like processed foods, etc
*Breast implants, silver fillings, root canals, & cavitations
*Poor circadian rhythm balance (spending too much time indoors/not enough time in nature, too much blue light exposure from smart devices, etc)
*A disregulated nervous system from unaddressed trauma, not managing life stressors well, or lower vibrational emotions (like anger, anxiety, unforgiveness, feeling stuck in your life, feeling like you can't move forward, etc)
All of these things absolutely have to be addressed, or it won't matter what you throw at the parasites/pathogens. They will just keep getting more overgrown, as a way to protect you.

If you have questions about this post, please send me a private message. As always, I offer a 20 minute consult for FREE, with no obligation ever attached.
This is my way of giving back and helping you figure out how to navigate parasitic/pathogenic overgrowth, how to troubleshoot any issues you’re having with cleansing, and helping you figure out what approach might be best for you (as no two people are exactly the same, so bio-individuality cannot be overlooked).
Happy healing, everyone!
