Don’t stress… because we all have them! But it’s important to keep these squirmy critters in check otherwise they can create a lot of chaos in the body! Parasites are ALWAYS the first chronic infections we help our clients address because they can hold double their weight in toxins (heavy metals, chemicals, viruses, bacteria, mold, etc). Without taking care of these buggers first, we can’t address the deeper root causes!

How do you know for sure?

We get this question A LOT and it’s absolutely valid! Aside from the symptoms, how do we know if parasites are one of your root causes? When we analyze bloodwork, we can usually see them by observing the level of eosinophils along with other immune markers. However, parasites hide in what are called biofilms and because of this, they are not always seen by looking at bloodwork until we disrupt those biofilms. If they are hidden within biofilms, the immune system cannot identify them. This is also why parasites do not always show up on stool tests! We still suspect that they are an issue by looking at additional markers and how they are interacting with other markers. So no matter what, we always disrupt biofilms with our clients and what we have found more often than not is that the immune system can identify the parasites once we disrupt those biofilms within 30-45 days.

What does a parasite protocol look like?

When we work with our clients through a parasite cleanse/protocol, we a ALWAYS start with the foundations first. We make sure their digestive system is functioning properly, their blood sugar is regulating, they are eating enough quality fats, their minerals are balanced, and they are hydrated enough! Foundations are very important in order to keep the body strong through any root cause protocol. We also spend 30 - 60 days working on their drainage pathways. All this means in that we make sure their body can ELIMINATE toxins efficiently. Anytime we are detoxing, we want to make sure those toxins can actually LEAVE the body! This is a very important step!!! Once we spend some time on the foundations and start opening up the drainage pathways, we then introduce a biofilm disruptor and a binder. In order to address parasites, we must make sure they are not hidden within biofilms (a protective mucus layer). We use a binder to literally BIND to the toxins that are being stirred up within the body by the entire process so that they can be excreted by the body. We spend between 2 weeks to 30 days disrupting biofilms before parasite cleansing. After that, we then introduce different herbs that kill the parasites. The herbs kill, the binder binds to the dead parasites and any toxins they release, and the body has the necessary strength to properly excrete the parasites and toxins out of the body. We pulse these herbs for about 3 months before moving on to deeper root causes.

Why does the process take so long? Can’t I just do one parasite cleanse?

When working with parasites and other root causes, we take extra time preparing the body for eradication so that our clients have little to no detox symptoms. Ensuring they are eating nutrient dense food and that their drainage pathways are open are two very important steps needed to make sure our clients stay comfortable through this process. If drainage pathways are not fully open, the detox symptoms can create additional stress on the body that is unnecessary.

However, can you just do one parasite cleanse without working with a practitioner? ABSOLUTELY! You know your body better than anyone. If you know your body can handle it, by all means, grab a Cellcore Full Moon kit and go for it! More details below!

What’s the deal with the full moon?

Parasites are cyclic creatures and become more active during a full moon. You may notice your symptoms get worse during or around a full moon.. this is because those buggers are out to play! This is typically the best time to do a parasite cleanse for this reason.
