Re: Parasite cleanse--especially for children
Another thread recently, reminded me of some parasite info that hasn't been mentioned and is extremely important. When using anything as a parasite cleanse, it is absolutely important that you be sure your child is having daily bowel movements. If only once, you want to move towards 2 to 3 times a day. I know doctors will say once every 3 days is fine but it isn't! Common sense tells us if a child has had 3 meals every day for a week and goes only once every three days. The child still has something like 12 meals left to remove. Now I mention this with urgency because parasites are like roaches. If you see one there is likely thousands. If you start giving an antiparasite and killing them off this can cause an obstruction in a child who is constipated or not going as often as they should. And parasites not only cause diarhea but also constipation. Its documented that parasites, like pin worms can be dead, tangled up, causing a partial blockage. That's why so many older remedies include foods or herbs that also keep things moving.
Thought this was worth returning to mention since it is a sticky and referred to often.
