A problem with Synthetic drugs and parasites.
Being in the retail speciality store business, we sell everything from
Canadian Diamonds to Herbal Products. But I would never believe the
importance of some basic herbs to treat common diseases that impact our
community.
In fact it took me 16 years of pain and suffering to finally turn to
alternative herbs in seeking a treatment. I did not, nor could not
accept that 'these things' that we were involved in could help, and
that mainstream medicine was not at all interested in suggesting them.
One day, I received a brochure from an herbal company, together with
other magazines from lighting companies, diamond companies, etc. Well
there was a key word, 'parasites' that I was not use to hearing, but
there it was. The rest is now history.
Thunder Bay had a water boil advisory some 20 years ago, at which time
I had also gone to Mexico and shortly thereafter, developed some
intestinal problems. Some testing, I have since learned that these
tests are not 100% accurate to being with, nor do they cover the whole
spectrum of bacterial infections, did not reveal anything. So I was
stuck, labelled with an intestinal disorder, symptoms that drained my
energy, so much so that I felt I was dying, I decided that there was
limited hope that my body someday would adjust. Well 16 years later
the condition persisted.
To be truthful, it was a co-incidence of receiving some educational
material on 'parasites' from an herbal company, and my eating some raw
garlic; with noticeable improvement. Also I was given an old wide
spectrum anti-biotic that made a noticeable improvement in my
condition. To this day, I still believe that fresh, natural cloves of
garlic are very effective.
The brochure on 'parasites' did mention a problem with 'synthetic
drugs', they are too specific in their focus.
"Synthetic drugs' - The problem with synthetic drugs is that each drug
kills only one or two types of parasites and has side effects. If we
are infected with many types of parasites, it is not possible to treat
all of them because of the harm in taking many differentn drugs at the
same time."
Let us also remember that 'we can't find anything' is not concrete
proof you don't have them. Testing is for known parasites only, and
there are some bacterial parasites that have not yet been discovered.
It is just recently that the Lancet 2002, announced a bacterial
component to Crohns'. You do recall what happened to Ulcers decades
ago.
" New Roots Herbal (the company that brought my attention to this key
word "parasites' uses twelve powerful traditional anti-parasitic
herbs....Black Walnut Hulls and Leaves, Wormwood, Garlic Cloves,
Grapefruit seed extract, Barberry BArk, Golden Seal Root, Ginger, Aloe,
Quassia, Oregon Grape Root and Sage.
Food that help prevent and eliminate parasites include garlic, onions,
raw pumpkin seeds, raw beets, raw carrots, figs papaya seed,
pomegranate, and cranberry juice.( New Roots Herbal )"
It is also important in treating 'parasites' to use a 'fiber cleanser'
many on the market, and a friendly bacterial supplement, Activa,
yogurts or Cheese will do...
In hindsite I heard an important observation from a doctor after the
fact when I commented that the condition was making me feel out of
touch. He stated that it is a normal result of a toxin in the system.
My general doctor years earlier was given the same information with
little feedback.
Don't make the mistake I made in relying on 'the system' to find,
diagnose and offer treatment....16 years is a long time to endure.
