I have an issue to ponder and would like your feedback, please.
I am becoming more and more aware of fungi/yeasts and their invasion of so many of the body tissues. As well, their ability to conceal themselves and that they have a protective 'coat' (like bugs) (it is called chitin) that bodily defenses cannot get thru. Prescription meds given are usually for yeast infections and super toxic. Cannot be taken for long and never kill the yeast/fungi, just back it off.
There is information out now on 'stuff' that weakens the protective layer and the body defenses can then weaken and kill it. I know there also are oils that can do the same thing, I just don't know which ones. Fungi/yeasts invade brain, nervous system, gastrointestinal system, mucus membranes, lungs, mouths, finger and toe nails, etc. They may be one very basic contributor to so many of our illnesses and why almost everyone in our world is not well. Many not sick, but just not well.
Your feedback and that of others would be very appreciated.
Thank you for this comment.
I have been highly aware of this issue for many years. Michael and I have both struggled with parasite infestations, yeast infections, and candida at various times in our lives.
As a result of this, and our experiences with herbal parasite cleansing, we now do a parasite and yeast cleanse every year in the fall, for 6 weeks to 2 months, depending on how we feel that year.
I have also come to the point where I include parasite cleansing for everyone who comes to me for support in healing any health issues. I have never yet found someone who did an herbal parasite cleanse, who did not have an increase in energy and well-being after completing it.
It is my opinion that NOTHING, including drugs and antibiotics, essential oils, herbs, etc., actually eliminates parasites and fungi completely. Even there was a substance that did, we are constantly exposed to them in our lives, with pets, traveling, eating in restaurants, fresh produce, and working in public places. The best we can do is to regularly cleanse to reduce the population; and adopt a healthy diet and lifestyle that will help build immunity in our systems. Without making these changes, parasite cleansing is going to be at best, a temporary fix.
Here is link to a parasite cleansing chart that lists herbs which are effective against some of the most common parasite infections.
And here is a link to the Parasite cleanse that I recommend for all of my clients. You can look closely at the recipe and create your own using some of the herbs listed.
Essential oils that are effective against candida and yeasts, include caraway, cassia, Amazon cinnamon, geranium, lime, rosewood, oregano, leleshwa, cinnamon, tea tree, lemon, bergamot, lemongrass, lavender, and eucalyptuses--especially eucalyptus globulus.
You can treat the infection with essential oils, diluted and taken internally; at the same time, it is very important to use a pro-biotic such as RAW men's or RAW Women's, or Five-lac. I prefer Five-Lac to the Three-Lac also available from the same company. To really complete the healing, it is also important to make the lifestyle changes that will create a new internal environment, so the fungus does not simply come back again. Eating fermented foods daily will help keep the right flora growing in the digestive system, which goes a long way in keeping fungus and candida under control. It will do other good things in your body too, strengthening the immune system and creating a sense of mental and emotional well being.
It is most important to begin slowly; try a cleanse or two and see if it helps. Sometimes we need to build gradually rather than take the essential oils at high levels. Though they are more effective at high levels, there is a die off associated with candida and parasite cleansing. By going into it gradually, you can control the process so that the die off does not become intolerable.
Here are a couple more recipes that might inspire you. I have used all of the above mentioned essential oils at this level of dilution with great success for many people. Sometimes I have found it necessary to use much higher dilutions, up to 50 drops of essential oil into 1 ounce of water carrier. I prefer to start light and work up to that if it is necessary.
And finally, another couple of blog posts from the past on Parasite cleansing.
