Should I add cloves to kill parasite eggs?
If so, what is a good brand? Is liquid or pills better?

Good question. I would like to know too.
I'm thinking Herb Pharm probably has a good tincture (aka liquid) for Clove, but I would like to know if tincture or pill is better.

I personaly prefer the herbs to the tincture because I think they stay in the G.I. track longer. Ideally, you should use black walnut hull and wormwood with the cloves.
I buy my herbs at vitacost and am very happy with the quality. I have been using Parastroy for the past several months which contains a lot of ther antiparasitic herbs as well as HCL and enzymes. Works best with food.
I believe Hanna Kroeger sells cloves seperately as does Hulda Clark.
Jenny,
you might want to just do the Albenza by itself and then do some antiparasitic herbs containing cloves when your finished with that. That's what I would do anyway.
Eating spicey foods is also a good idea and if you google antiparasitic foods you will see a list.

I had heard it was good to do the clove *during* other treatments, so that you would hit all forms at once (the parasites and the eggs). Not sure what form clove hits, but I remember hearing it like, "be sure clove is with the other treatments." So I'm assuming it hits the eggs?
I can't say if clove interacts with anything, etc....just sayin.'

I have never heard of taking cloves with a pharmaceutical, but that doesn't mean it's not done. I have only ever heard in reference to cloves that it definitely should be one of the three herbs used in killing parasites.
Wormwood, Black Walnut Hull and Cloves. Cloves is the one ingredient that kills the eggs. In any antiparasitic herbs I have ever seen, these three herbs are always part of the program.
Maybe you heard "be sure clove is with the other treatments" when someone purchase the wormwood and black walnut hull seperately. Have no idea if taking the cloves along with Albenza would interact. Maybe someone else does.
