I have read it will cure most parasites? OK I know
what it does for meats (natural tenderizer). But
what does it do for the body? I am thinking about
trying this as I crave the fresh anyway.

Interesting I haven't heard of this, but I was very sick back in Dec/Jan and literally had no appetite at all. The only thing I was interested in eating was pineapple.
I have never been a big pineapple fan. Infact I don't really care for it at all. But for whatever reason it was the only thing I could keep down for weeks. In June I tested positive for Lyme, Bart, and the new protozoa on the fry test. I knew I had lyme and have been treating for 5 years (as wells as babs and erchilia) but I didn't know about the bart or protozoa.
I wouldn't say that it cured me since I tested positive 6 months later for a parasite but it did help me.

I read that adding hulled pumkin seeds with the pineapple also works well. the pumpkin seeds paralyzes them. Some days I wish they would just have a G.I. vacuuming service.

Hi Folks,
Someone mentioned to me Papaya seeds. Has anyone tried them?
Gael you are so funny a GI vacuming service, thanks for the laugh.
Hi Pinelady,
I have drank alot of pineapple juice, I heard it was good for healing the stomach, but I don't know for sure.
Have at it! Start when it gets close to full moon - they are mating then. Drink milk to start with - that will bring them out too. Then enjoy the pineapple and that should take care of a few.
All parasite therapies should be repeated at least three times - 21 day time frames. I believe this is when the eggs hatch.
Haven't done it, but certainly would do it if I had that problem. I don't think there is any getting well with too many of the bad parasites. Some are necessary for life.
Take care.
Take care.

Thanks for posting that. I have seen a lot of your old posts on parasites and they were always informative.
Google antiparasitic foods and herbs so you can always ingest what they hate on a daily basis. I also eat a lot of hot and spicy foods. THESE DAM BUGS!!!

Someone else told me chinese horseradish. It's suppose to look like a white carrot?
How in the world could we eat this?
This is supposed to be a chinese remedy.

Wouldn't that basically give you a massive sugar load and screw you all up with yeast!

Your probably right Wild thing but I feel like
since I have been working on the Bb the others have
free reign. Not sure when it is supposed to be hit.
And looking. Do salt once a week now and C everyday.

Might not be a good idea...collagen is already being broken down via the MMPs in lyme triggered RA.
Likely you (Smiles) really needed the glucose and the breakdown of collagen via Bromelain might supply you (and Bb) with amino acids.
I think we crave what we need.

To keep the parasites at bay:
I have been taking:
Buffered "C" in water on empty stomach first thing AM.
1/4 tsp each of: cinnimon, ground ginger, ground cloves, added to a little yoghurt in the am.
Then a little later take: 1/4 tsp each of: garlic, ground sage, thyme, also in some food
take psylium husk fiber and loads of water!
Then through the day:
eat pineapple pieces, watermellon pieces, grapefruit segments and spicy food.
See loads of dead parasites in my stool, urine, and being eliminated from my uterus attached to blood clots. It's amazing.
Will do a more extreme parasite cleanse later!
I must be infested!
I now believe Ttis is essential for all of us to address at the appropriate time in treatment.

Pineapples contain lots of bromelain and bromelain is known to kill tapeworms, possibly other parasites.
That is the connection and I think you would be much better off supplementing with bromelain (on an empty stomach), then eating pineapple to avoid all the sugar in pineapple especially if you are on ABX.

my llmd put me on Pure Encapsulations brand bromelain, (i think minimum 1,000 mg a day) which is basically pineapple stem.
personally, i love pineapple, but could never eat it because of the high sugar content.

Tried the pineapple diet decades ago when it was going through a popular surge and I was first getting sick. Didn't help and gave me mouth sores.
I've been taking bromelain everyday for almost 10 years. I'm still having problems with parasites. Not to say these things won't help some people but they didn't solve my problem.
I personally think that ammonia/bh4 could be the connection between borrelia and parasitic infections. This assumes that ammonia is increased in borrelia patients.
We know it is increased in people with certain methylation cycle defects such as the CBS upregulation and MTHFR 1298C. Increased ammonia = reduced bh4. Reduced bh4 means more severe parasitic infections.
BH4 may be reduced in people who have difficulty getting rid of parasitic infections including babesia and malaria. It takes 2 molecules of BH4 to detoxify one molecule of ammonia.
Interesting to note this NIH study: The purpose of this study is to see if children, who develop coma from malaria, are not making enough of a vitamin-like chemical tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT00338520
In a post from Dr. Yasko's discussion forum - this posted by Dr. Yasko:
"Finally, it has been found that lower levels of BH4 tend to be associated with high levels of parasites. It is possible that low BH4 has a similar effect on the level of Borrelia burgdorferi."

I am on a mostly liquid diet consisting of
yogurt,
fresh pineapple
fresh papaya,
pomegranate juice,
green goodness (Bolthouse Farms)
pumpkin seeds (hulled)
flax seeds,
digestive enzymes,
crushed ginger,
in between herbs from humaworm,
sea salt.
cloves and cinnamon.
I also eat avocado and HOT spicy salsa with lots of cayenne pepper and jalapeno, garlic and onions.
Very similar to what lymeparfait is doing. I also do salt/c. I am also seeing worm segments everyday. I use lots of ice in my smoothie (crushed ice in blender)
This diet is pushing me towards remission. When you make the G.I. track poisonous to the parasites, they can't survive. Parasites feed on yeast and lower the immune system.
When you get rid of the parasites, it will be much easier to get rid of yeast,

Gael,
How long of a break do you take in between rounds of humaworm?

Hi lp,
I only have done one round of Humaworm. I am taking their in between herbs right now. I am due to do another round of Humaworm in Sept and plan on asking for extra strength.
I was told they will make you anything you want. They suggest that you wait 90 days between the reg humaworm. Where do you get your cloves, cinnamon and other herbs from?

I'm using my regular cooking herbs and spices, from whole foods.
I decided to just try these rather than searching out extremely fresh ones to see the results. They test strongly for me with the biotenser, so I use them!
These products are still killing, or at least keeping parasites at bay. See results each day!

I also use regular kitchen spices. As long as they are testing strong and you're getting results that's all that matters.
I used to live in the city and closer to the Farmers Mkt where I would get freshly ground herbs and that was great.
I don't have that access right now and know I could order them on line. The ones I have are working fine and I don't need any more added expense right now.
If you are seeing results then you are killing them. Are you taking any other meds? This disease is a full time job!!

No other meds, as I am doing the Allergie Immune drop therapy with the KPU Klinghardt mineral therapy for detox. Having great results.
The original parasite sighting was a by-product of the A.I. detox!

some folks dont do well with the bromelain in pineapple
is that pineapple 3x a day for how long? do you eat regular food too?
i think there are better herbal ways to kill the parasites slowly the all in one Intramax takes care of parasites just dont take any meds or anything for 2 hours after

Intramax looks like a pretty good product. I just researched it. Have you used the parasite cleanse, and if so what kind of results did you have?
Thanks,
Gael

It's called Daikon. You slice it thinly or shred it on a grater, that's how you eat it.....raw.

you would never get me to eat sushi but notice that traditionally it's eaten with wasabi. Pickled ginger and Saki,and other stuff. All protect against parasites.

glm111- intramax itself is a very strong parasite killer, and antibacterial,even catsclaw i think but i like it cause it gives support at the same time you have to go very very slow but at least gives you energy too and then you can increase as you can handle just note the bottle says nothing but that for 2 hours (i dont have anything to do with selling this product , it is something i really liked)
i havent tried too many other herbal parasite killers cause i just cant take it i do eat lots of garlic, tumeric and hopefully can try something in the future
hope that helps

Dear Abxnomore,
Thanks so much for teaching me about chinese horseradish being Daikon.
I am trying to learn just what I can to get better.
