Sorry, no pics. I ain't doin' that.

I've been on a variety of antiparasitic herbs for a couple of months.

My abdomen (small intestine area) was bothering me a week ago Thursday, so I stopped the antiparasitics for a few days, thinking that maybe I was on them for too long. I also started taking hydrochoric acid around the same time.

Well last night, I passed two worm segments. They were about 1/4 to 3/8 inch wide, and one was about 6 inches in length, the other two inches. I'm assuming they were two segments of the same worm.

I keep a log of what foods I eat to prevent repitition of foods more frequently than 4 days apart to prevent food allergies.

I looked back over my log and trust me, there is NOTHING that I've eaten in the past two weeks that would resemble what came out of me. It was kind of stretchy. So it had to be a worm.

I'm wondering if the worm was dying for a while and took a while to die and come out, that's what may have caused the pain I was having

OR:

Maybe the hydrochloric acid supplement was what killed it? I wonder.

I'm going to keep looking. I know that tapeworms can be several feet long.

Chaps,

They are most likely segments. You have to get the head of the tapeworm or it will not die. Stay on the antiparasitics, because these parasites are laying eggs and larva and will keep hatching. The HCL is a good adjunct as well as Digestive Enzymes.

I take Super Digestaway by Soloray because they have antiparasitic properties as well. Yes, these worms can take a while to die and pass thru the G.I. track.

Just KEEP GOING...DON'T STOP!

P. S.

Hanna Kroeger makes a herb for tapeworms called Rascal.

When I read the title my mind took me back to a couple of proud moments in my life. None involved a tapeworm or anything close to that.

At this point in my life, I understand and appreciate how happy/proud you are to pass a tapeworm. I'd feel the same way if I were you!

But I couldn't help but laugh when I read the title. I know that wasn't your intention, but you brought me a little bit of humor so thanks for that.

And congrats. I hope that whatever needs to come out comes out.

I agree with Gael. Keep going!

They lay thousands of eggs. I've been quite ill from doing anti-parasite herbs. I thought it through so many times. In my case, the discomfort I'm having is from the die-off, not the herbs.

If it gets to be too much, back off a bit but don't stop. They just come right back.

gim1111, hello!

do you take anything in addition to the Super Digestaway by Soloray??? I know it has excellent properties but I didn't know that it had, eh-uh, the TURBO effects necessary to start this process!

Thanks

clueless,

There are some very good antiparasitic herbs you can take such as Humaworm, Hanna Kroeger, Hulda Clark etc. I am currently taking Parastroy.

The enzymes are just an adjunct and not the main antiparasitic herbs. Do a search on here uner parasites for a lot more info.

Hey thanks, everybody.

The end of one of the segments looked kind of oval shaped, it think it might have been the head.

These things are like the Hydra! You've got to get the head of the beast!

I'll keep the battle going.

I think most everyone has parasites of one kind or another. Farm animals have them all the time, as well as pets.

I think the ick factor just keeps us from thinking that we may have them also. Why wouldn't we have them, when every other mammal does?

I had the small variety, that look like rice. They came from fleas from our pets. I had no idea fleas were a vector of infection for tapeworms, but they are.

Who knows what else we can pick up?

I used MMS to eliminate them, but I noticed that Turmeric tincture killed them also, but not the capsules.

Contrast fluid used for a CT scan also kills them. Found that out by accident.
