I had stool testing and it didn't pick up my massive parasites which included a huge tapeworm and at least 50 roundworms. I'd just take the anti-parasiticals. I take them once a year now just in case.

Hi sixgoofykids,

What type of anti-parasiticals do you take? I am thinking of going through some parasite treatment as my immune system has been severely depressed for 8 years.

I took Humaworm. I know there are others out there now that I didn't know about back then. I believe I took four rounds of it with the days in between that they recommend.

The Humaworm didn't seem to get rid of all the roundworms, but I saw a lot of them expelled with Nutramedix enula.

After all that, I did a colon cleanse by Dr. Natura, and that's the one I do once a year. It has antiparasiticals in it, but I think the Humaworm is stronger.

This is considered an excellent parasite testing lab, but not all intestinal parasite infections show up in stool:
