Parasites are extremely common, and they can live dormant for years without symptoms. When they do, it’s usually the ones above.
You can get parasites from:
- Soil/dirt
- Pets
- Lakes, rivers and creeks
- Raw fish (sushi) and undercooked meat
- Pork
- Tap water
- International travel
In addition to practicing proper hygiene, it’s a good idea to avoid foods that feed parasites like processed carbs and sugar. Parasites cannot survive without a steady supply of sugar, which triggers sugar and carb cravings in the host.
Parasites are also more active during a full moon, so if you notice symptoms during this time, you can probably benefit from a cleanse.
