Coming back to all of this . . .
My almost-two-year-old has struggled w/ constipation off and on for over a year.
She seems to be getting better and then it comes back. We've done EVERYTHING: probiotics, lots of fiber, magnesium, aloe vera juice, prunes, etc. I tried going g/f but it was just too much w/ a newborn and my dh traveling.
Anyway, after reading all of this now I really think she has a parasite issue as well. She also gets puffiness under her eyes now and then. Poor baby!
My DH is taking this right now
http://www.hannasherbshop.com/app/we...web_100708.pdf because he was having some serious parasite symptoms and a local supplement store that we really respect recommended it.
I am going to buy some DE, though, ASAP.
I'm going to add this to the OP as well, but
WORD OF CAUTION: DO NOT SEARCH FOR PARASITE IMAGES unless you are prepared to see some really graphic, tragic, and gross pictures. Truly, they are not for the timid or unprepared. Many parasite are not microscopic, in fact, quite the reverse. Enough said?
