Uninvited Guests: The Truth about Parasites
Article Summary:
- Around 50% of people in the Western world are likely to suffer from some form of parasitic infestation during their lifetime, and parasites could have a part to play in most common illnesses.
- Bacteria, parasites, and fungi build up in our bodies because we generate the perfect environment for them through gut flora imbalances, exposure to certain foods, medications, and chemicals.
- The three types of parasites human beings are susceptible to are: Protozoa, Ectoparasites, and Helminths.
- One of the most dangerous sources of parasitic infestations is pork – as pigs are carriers of huge amounts of toxins and bacteria. Parasitic infections can also be worsened by frequent exposure to natural sugars such as glucose, fructose, and grains.
- The common symptoms of parasitic infection can range from wrinkles above your lips, to severe allergies, fatigue, brain fog, and poor sleeping habits.
- Some people, such as those with digestive problems, cancer, malnutrition, and leaky gut syndrome are more prone to parasitic infestation.
- Dietary treatments are often the first option for fighting back against parasitic infestation. This means removing pork, grains, sugars, alcohol, and processed foods from your diet, and introducing vitamin C, garlic, coconut oil, and diatomaceous earth.
- Dr. Hulda Clark recommends a combination of herbal solutions that have been frequently proven to work in fighting back against parasites. This herbal concoction includes wormwood, black walnut, and common cloves.
- Other treatment options might include ozone therapy, and infrared saunas which work to kill off the initial infection.
Could You be Host to a Parasitic Infestation?
Most people fail to entertain the idea that they might be playing host to several different types of parasites. However, the truth is that experts believe more than 50% of people across the Western world will suffer from some parasitic infestation during their lifetime. In fact, some researchers believe that parasites could have a part to play in almost every common illness.
As uncomfortable as it may be to think about – the human body is crawling with hundreds of strains of bacteria and yeast. The average digestive tract holds more than three pounds of bacteria. When properly balanced, these bacteria are helpful for aiding nutrient absorption and proper digestion. For instance, probiotics are a form of bacteria that can have a significant positive impact on health. Unfortunately, when these bacteria begin to fall out of balance, problems start. Many different sources can disrupt the balance of our internal bacteria, from medication and diet, to contact with infected sources.
In most cases, parasites like worms, fungi, and viruses enter our bodies because we cultivate a perfect environment for them. With compromised immune systems thanks to antibiotics, disrupted internal flora, exposure to junk food and various chemicals, we welcome parasites in. All of that makes our bodies the ideal home for a parasite infestations.
What are the Different Types of Parasite?
Parasitic infections come in many different shapes and sizes. While some are asymptomatic, others cause significant discomfort, and some can even be deadly. For instance, Malaria is one of the most well-known parasites in the world, responsible for around one million deaths per year. At the same time, neglected tropical diseases such as Onchocerciasis, Filariasis, and Guinea Worm kill about 500,000 people per year. Even in highly developed civilizations, parasites can promote digestive issues like irritable bowel syndrome, and may even lead to cancer.
Parasites can range all the way from microscopic organisms that enter the body through drink, food, contact with animals, or infected people, to huge tape worms and other issues. Though parasites are often acquired from consuming contaminated water or food, people with leaky gut syndrome, imbalanced gut flora, and weakened immune systems can be far more susceptible. What’s more, parasites can live within the human body for years.
Parasites get their food by consuming nutrients at the expense of their host. Worse, parasites can lead to the onset of disease in humans. There are three types of known parasite that are capable of feasting on humans:
- Protozoa – Single cell organisms that multiply and live within the tissue or blood of humans. These creatures infect the body through flies and mosquitos, and can be found in both water and soil.
- Ectoparasites – Fleas, ticks, mite, lice, and other organisms that live on the surface of their human host and burrow or attach to the skin.
- Helminths – Parasitic flukes, flatworms, tapeworms, and various other form of worm. These parasites live within the gastrointestinal tract, lymphatic system, blood, and various other tissues in the human body.
How Do We Get Parasites?
If you’re feeling concerned about the presence of these uninvited guests, then the chances are you’ll want to know what to avoid to reduce your risk of falling victim to them. The truth is that parasites can be obtained from several different sources, however visiting parts of the world where clean water is not largely available, or eating pork can be some of the most common causes of infestation. Pigs are a particularly potent source of parasites, because they eat everything they can find on a farm. Since pigs don’t have sweat glands which can remove toxins from their body, all the bad substances that the pig consumes remains within the pork when we eat it. It’s no wonder that there are so many warnings around about the dangers of undercooking pork. Unfortunately, while cooking can eliminate some of the toxins and parasites in pork – many are too strong to be killed by heat alone.
Pigs are the primary carriers of various viruses and parasites, including:
- Menangle Virus
- Nipah Virus
- PRRS (Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome)
- Hepatitis E Virus
- Taenia Solium Tapeworm
- Trichinellosisor Trichinosis
Of course, pork isn’t the only dangerous substance out there – nor is it the only source of parasitic infection. In fact, parasites and yeast can enter the human body through a variety of different means – often depending on the time of infection. For instance, Candida Albicanis – the most difficult to remove form of yeast, and one of the most common – occurs naturally within the body in small amounts. When a person eats a large amount of fructose and glucose, the normally occurring yeasts and parasites in the body are fed and allowed to multiply. On top of that, various pharmaceuticals and birth control pills can deplete beneficial bacteria in the digestive tract, leading to overgrowth, infestation, and imbalance.
In many cases parasites can become so deeply ingrained within the human body that the treatment process is quite complex. For instance, treating parasites and yeasts often involves not only killing the invaders, but also flushing the toxins they have created from the body and supporting the body in regenerating good bacteria, and healing itself.
Symptoms – How to Tell If You Have Parasites
Before the treatment process can begin, you’ll need to identify the presence of parasites within your body. There are a huge number of symptoms that can be directly and indirectly associated with parasite infestation, and if you have several of them, the chances are that you’re suffering from some form of overgrowth. In some cases, symptoms can be difficult to pinpoint because of parasitic infestation – for instance, food allergies (particularly from dairy) can be a common result of parasite issues. At the same time, skin acne issues can occur because of the presence of parasites, and if you have wrinkles above your lips – this could be a sign that you have parasites in your large intestine. In some cases, small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, or SIBO can be caused by parasites, and leaky gut can also be a side effect of infestation.
Some of the other common symptoms of parasites and parasite overgrowth include:
- Ongoing fatigue
- Frequent yeast infections
- Lowered immune system and consistent illness
- Sores on the lips or mouth, or white spots within the mouth
- Poor sleeping habits
- Fungus around the feet, or athletes foot
- Gas and bloating
- Significant allergies
- Sensitivity to chemicals or certain foods
- Rashes or itching around the genitals
- Food cravings – particularly for starchy or sweet foods
- Intestinal cramps
- Eczema or Psoriasis
- Brain fog or mental fuzziness
- Depression or anxiety
- Menstrual irregularities in women
- Joint or muscle pains
- Spots in the eyes
- Diarrhea or constipation
Some people are naturally more prone to yeast overgrowth and parasitic infestation than others. In most cases, the reason for this is that these individuals are already suffering with ongoing chronic diseases. Yeast and parasites are frequently found in people with:
- Malnutrition issues
- Leaky gut syndrome
- Kidney stones
- Chronic fatigue
- Crohn’s disease
- Malnutrition
- Osteoporosis
- Multiple Sclerosis
- Infertility
- Arthritis
- Cancer
- Digestive problems
Treatment Options for Parasite Infestations
The good news for people who believe they may be suffering from parasites and parasitic infections, is that there are certain natural treatments that can be effective at assisting the body with removing yeast and killing parasites. One of the most commonly addressed solutions – involves making alterations to your current diet.
If you currently have parasitic problems, then it’s important to remember that any of the sugars that you consume which can feed your infestation may make the condition even worse. If your aim is to engage in a natural form of treatment to remove parasites, then you’ll need to start by removing all sources of natural sugar from your diet. This means that you’ll need to avoid all grains too! In most cases, experts suggest that you should avoid eating fruit during a parasitic removal, because fruits naturally contain huge amounts of sugar. In some cases, it’s also worth avoiding dairy for a couple of weeks too.
Some of the best foods that you can eat during a dietary change for parasitic infection are pumpkin seeds. Eating one cup a day will help to fight off the infestation. At the same time, remember to avoid these substances:
- Pork – This meat is highly contaminated with parasites, as we discussed above.
- All grains – many wheats and other grains containing gluten can break down into sugars quickly – leading to intestinal inflammation.
- Alcohol – this substance does not allow for the proper functioning of the immune system.
- Processed foods – foods that are significantly processed have no benefit to immune health, and often contain lots of sugars.
- Sugar – sugar feeds parasites and reduces your immune system functions.
When it comes to using substances that might help to boost your abilities in the fight against parasitic infestations, some useful products to consider might include:
- Diatomaceous Earth – This naturally occurring substance is great at killing parasites, parasite eggs, and yeast. It can also help to improve digestion and restore body tissue.
- Apple cider vinegar – High in B-vitamins, apple cider vinegar is particularly nourishing to the body and helps to neutralize the internal pH condition – great for improving digestion.
- Vitamin C – Besides being great for immune support and antioxidant function, Vitamin C is ideal for parasite removal. If you have some of the symptoms mentioned above, take around 5,000mg per day.
- Coconut oil – A natural anti-fungal, and naturally nourishing to the body, Coconut oil can be taken several times a day as a form of parasitic removal support.
- Cinnamon – A natural remedy for fungus and parasites, cinnamon can be ideal in an infestation.
- Garlic – many experts recommend using garlic to help remove parasites and yeast. To use this substance, simply mince two cloves and drink them with a cup of water before meals.
A Herbal Solution to Parasitic Infection
Dr. Hulda Clark was one of the first people to popularize parasite killing. She made it clear that getting rid of all the parasites within the body would be impossible using clinical medications that can only work to kill one or two parasites each – while making you quite unwell at the same time. Dr. Clark found that though several herbs have parasite-killing properties, three primary herbs can rid the human body of over a hundred different forms of infection – without negative side effects.
When it comes to finding herbal and supplemental options to fight back against parasitic infection, wormwood is one of the most commonly cited solutions. Across the world, wormwood has been used for decades to eliminate unwanted visitors in the human body – particularly pinworm (the most common worm infection in the US), and roundworm. Pinworms can cause severe itching around the anal area, while roundworms cause shortness of breath, coughing, abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea, blood in the stool, and weight loss.
In many natural remedies or cleanse solutions against parasitic infections, including Dr. Hulda Clark’s cleanse, wormwood is used alongside clove and black walnut to kill off the parasite. What’s more, wormwood is also beneficial for a range of other reasons too. For instance, it’s the primary ingredient of the herbal drug, artemisinin – the most powerful antimalarial on the market. On top of that, research has shown that wormwood can kill cancer cells, treat anorexia, insomnia, stomach ache, jaundice, flatulence, and indigestion. Wormwood can even be used to remove some of the symptoms commonly associated with Crohn’s disease, and help in fighting back against SIBO.
Other herbs that have been found to support parasitic removal include:
- Grapefruit seed extract
- Olive leaf extract
- Rosemary
- Peppermint
- Thyme
- Oregano oil
- Uva ursi leaf
- Black walnut
- Clove oil
Other Treatment Options
Besides dietary and herbal solutions, there are some more direct treatments available for people who suffer from parasitic overgrowth or infection. For instance, infrared saunas can be ideal for killing parasites. These procedures work by raising the body temperature to assist the body in killing off unwanted bacteria, fungi, yeast, parasites, and sometimes even cancerous tumors.
Another option is ozone therapy – one of the most versatile treatments available today, as it can be applied through medical treatments and home-based solutions. Ozone treatment can be administered through the skin into various organs throughout the body, including the intestines. What’s more, it can be used in the blood, through the ears, on gums, teeth, and more. Ever since its first introduction into the medical world, Ozone has been proven to act as a powerful tool against various conditions and afflictions.
Many people find that the best solution to ridding themselves of parasites, and maintaining a healthy body thereafter, is to engage in several treatment options. As mentioned above, simply killing the parasite isn’t always enough – you’ll also need to make changes to avoid falling victim to similar problems in the future, and ridding your body of unwanted toxins.
Finding your ideal treatment will be a process that’s unique to you and your needs, but it’s important to remember that there are plenty of natural solutions to help you fight back against parasitic infestation.
Please note also that depending on the infestation of parasites within the body, it can sometimes take up to a year to clear them all out. Less severe cases will be shorter than that.

Please help bc, i have had over 100 cyst and 30 cyst removed but yet NO DOCTOR HAS EVEN MENTION any of these listed above .
I had 2 stroke, lost my vision upon having strokes and I AM VERY ILL!!!
I am 42years of age and have been diagnosed with Polymorphosis poulation and now have 5 massive cyst that are inlargimng in size daily..lung dieses,osteoporosis,anemis,gout, glaucoma,depression,panic anxiety,insomnia,chronic back and syitica pain,and the list goes on. I have large mass on breast, 4.8 in size mass on my neck, as well as found out yesterday that there is a massive size mass on my thyroid.
I have medicare as a primary insurance and also Medicaid as a secondary insurance coverage.
PLEASe help me find someone whom practices (ANYTHING ) EXCEPT WESTERN MEDICINE<
I have been givin antibiotic for the last 22 years and now I AM antibiotic resistent ..NOT sure what or wher to go from here…not to mention CHRONIC FATIGUE
It sounds like you need to find a health professional to individually tailor things for you. Lots of moving parts and long history for you. As far as parasite testing, the stool tests are extremely inaccurate. I am not a fan of those for parasites. Looking at symptoms, history and trying different herbs to see if you get worms out in your stool is a good starting place for parasites.

The first thing you must do is improve your health. I suggest you go to the website of Dr. Mark Sircus (Dr. Sircus. com) and see all the good things he has to offer. Emphasize nascent iodine as a very important part of your health program and study all the good things he has to offer. His e- book about iodine is very good and reading you will understand the critical importance of iodine for good health.
Another good website is Jim Humble.org. This one describes the use of chlorine dioxide for parasites. It too is a very good. Since nascent iodine and chlorine dioxide (in very very low concentrations) are both oxidizers they can be used together to advantage. I have benefited greatly from this program.
If you can travel a very good little clinic in central Alberta for parasites is:
Thyme for Health ‘n Herbs
Parasite and Bacteria Program
Cynthia Eichhorn 780-786-4422 in Mayerthorpe, Alberta.
I have been to this clinic many times for some really nasty parasites and got really cleaned up. The testing is very simple and fast, just muscle testing, and the program is herbs and Rife therapy. No western medicine.
If you cannot travel but know your parasites then phone and see if you can do mail order which can be done..
Good luck with your recovery – Ron

What type of worm is that in the picture? I am particularly interested in treating the helminths. Are any herbs good for that, other than wormwood, cloves and black walnuts hulls? From what I’ve read and heard, Ann Louise Gittleman also has a good protocol on her Unikey site. I also have Lyme disease.
And thank you very much for such a great and thorough article!
It looks like a roundworm in the picture. There are a lot of great herbs for parasites. Mimosa Pudica is a favorite of mine and especially for roundworms.
Thank you!
I have a question about Mimosa Puduca, and fertility issues, I read where it can cause infertility. I would like to know about how it affects the body. I understand it is very good,. But if it messes with you being able to conceive is what I wanted to know about.
Hi Robin!
Mimosa Pudica Seed does not have any anti-fertility effects. The whole plant or bark portion might be different. I only recommend the seed form.

I would like to know what evidence you have that all pork is a carrier of the parasites as mentioned in your article? Just because pigs do not sweat surely does not mean that their bodies cannot deal with parasites? I am not sure whether you have heard of Black Fly Farming – see http://time.com/3825158/farming-flies-south-africa/. These fly maggots are feed all manner of food including items infected with disease. Researchers were amazed to find that the maggots were entirely free of any disease after eating infected flesh!! This makes it entirely safe to use the maggots as feed for other animals. Nature already has the answers to many of our problems – we just have to find it.
This is more recent.

Thank you for this article Dr. Jay. Infections are at the heart of all chronic illnesses and is a much underrated topic.
A couple of thoughts to which your feedback would be appreciated.
All infections have firstly an activity rate and secondly a reproductive cycle. We are mostly aware of the activity rate, because our symptoms reflect it. The reproductive cycle on the other hand is in our blind spot. Yet the critical aspect of clearing an infections from the body is to stop the reproductive cycle. If we don’t achieve that, an infection will reproduce and live on. That is the reason why we have to take herbs to meds for a period of time. I have seen reproductive cycles to be as long as 6 months, meaning, the infections can survive for six months before it needs to reproduce. It is during the reproductive stage that infections become vulnerable, because they come out of hiding during that time and become apparent to our immune system. And, in the end, it is not the herb, not the meds, but our immune system that clears an infection.
I agree that it’s our body that has to ultimately heal us! I always like to say “God needs no help, just no interference.” Meaning give the body some assistance to get over the hump and let the body do the rest!

Question: Would ridges on my fingernails and toenails (running from the cuticle to the tip) indicate a possible parasite infection?
Cheers,
Alex
Ridges generally mean digestive distress, which could be partly from parasites.
Boosting minerals and taking other things like MMS powder / borax may help. I had ridges in my nails during childhood which got worse after pregnancy. I was also diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis at age 23. I chose to go the natural route, so no pharmaceuticals. Adding MMS powder to my water every day took away the pain and cured my rheumatoid arthritis (which is still gone today, 23 years later.) An unexpected benefit to supplementing with MMS was that the ridges in my nails became less deep! I researched why this may have happened. I learned that one of the causes of nail ridges is mineral deficiency. So I started adding Concentrace mineral drops to my water. Within a few months my nails were completely smooth, and still are today. I don’t use concentrace anymore. Now I put pinches of pink Himalayan salt or other pure sea salt in my water every day (no iodized salt…I supplement with iodine in other ways.) Improving diet is also necessary for lasting change. Eat foods that build the body up, not break it down.
And parasite cleansing is absolutely essential. I have been working on this for the past 1.5 years. If I had the money, I would seek out someone who has extensive knowledge in this area, as I found the wormwood/clove/black walnut protocol severely lacking. For me, natural parasite products/protocols caused scattering, as well as a hyperinfection that I cannot kill (I have tried sooo many things, including mimosa pudica, with no luck.) The disseminated critters set up home in parts of my body outside of my gut, and there’s pressure in my spleen area (bulging my ribs out), as well as in my head/right jaw area where critters have come to rest. I feel them moving, and sometimes the pressure in my jaw causes neurological issues, like dropping things, grasping issues, and sometimes it makes me want to throw up and makes my legs weak. Frightening. No doctor takes me seriously and I don’t have money to seek out alternative therapy. So, if you don’t have to go it alone, don’t…

Hi Dr. Jay, any comments on the MMS/Chlorine Dioxide use? Maybe you cannot?
Thank you!
It’s a tool (a controversial one), generally not one that I typically utilize from a clinician standpoint.
Where can I find a good form of Mimosa Pudica? What else do you recommend taking to help cleanse the parasites out?
Microbe Formulas will have it available very soon to the public. Go to http://www.MicrobeFormulas.com and add your email to be notified when it’s for sale.
Thank you!
Dr Jay
Can you tell me the protocol for taking mimosa podia to clear parasites. Do I do this together with the Tudca you recommend?
What about mimosa pudica being an anti fertility herb?
I believe that’s a misnomer. Most herbs have that effect and this isn’t anything extreme at all.
Hey Dr. Jay,
I am currently taking your mimosa pudica product and have seen a number of things come out (crazy concept to get used to!). I also am in the midst of a long and debilitating battle with Lyme, so I’m especially keen to get this stuff out of me for good.
I have two questions and would so appreciate an answer as most of my docs are not as informed on the subject!
1) Do you have any thoughts on the ropeworm debate and some of the enemas suggested in that protocol? I’m wondering what else I can be doing to really support the efforts of the Para-1.
2) Does Mimosa Pudica help with worms all over the body or just in the gut? Having gone down the google rabbit hole, I’m worried about worms in my brain or heart…
Thanks so much for teaching us such helpful info about parasites!
My question is if Mimisa Pudica is safe for kids…Can I give it to my 9 years old..
Yes, I give it to my 5 1/2-year-old daughter.
I don’t see a reply to the question above about whether mimosa pudica helps with parasites in areas of the body other than the gut, and I am wondering the same thing…..
Yes, it does work systemically, when I was earlier on in my parasite cleansing journey, I had symptoms in my nose, face and lymph system while on Mimosa Pudica. It is known for and will probably always be known for its work in the digestive tract. It’s a biofilm buster and acts like a gut scrubber / gut grabber.
Thank you, Dr. Jay. So far my family and I have been taking mimosa pudica for 2-3 weeks. We have seen tapeworm segments but no whole worms. How long do you think it might take to get the whole worms out?
Mimosa Pudica seed is not a stand-alone product for parasites. I would add in other anti-parasitic herbs with Mimosa Pudica to speed the process of getting them out. It can take 3-6 months (in severe cases longer) to clear them out.
Also, for tapeworms, would you recommend that we go see the M.D. and get some pharmaceutical drugs or just keep going on Mimosa Pudica?
Would love to know how to treat pinworms while still breastfeeding? My 6 yr old passed them to me, and so far my 11 month old does not have them but I find very little know for nursing moms and the safety of herbs for toddlers.
Dr. Jay, excellent article!!!! Does anyone know the connection between wrinkles above the lips and parasitic infection? Thanks Again !!!!!
