			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-390" src="http://www.hannakroeger.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/Cabbage-212x300.jpg" alt="Cabbage" width="212" height="300" />It is something most of us don’t like to think about. People say “Worms are something that only dogs or cats can get”, or People don’t get worms unless they live in squalid, third world conditions”. Well if our pets can get them, then they are close enough to us that we can get them as well. Parasites have a long tradition of living amongst healthy thriving organisms and they are not about to give that up. At least not without a fight.</p>
<p>It is impossible to avoid contact with these ubiquitous and opportunistic organisms. They are simply too widespread and too well adapted to their ingenious methods of survival. So if it is inevitable that we will eventually come in contact with them, should we just accept it as a part of life? I don’t know about you, but I prefer to evict these nonpaying tenants. And it is not as if they just don’t give us any benefit, they also leave behind toxic wastes that tax our struggling elimination organs in an effort to remove them.</p>
<p>Ok, so we have decided that we don’t want to be giving a free ride anymore. What next? We can’t just pluck them out of our body. Or make ourselves so sick that we are no longer good hosts. Well medical science does have a few possibilities to offer such as chemical based treatments that hopefully don’t make us too sick in the process. Many MD’s steer clear of the subject as well because it is difficult to quantify results or even to determine if there is an infestation at all. There are natural remedies as well but it can be confusing with the vague labeling due to government regulations. Research your choices and make sure that you are buying from a reputable company with some decent history. Many parasite programs are enhanced by timing the start of the cleanse to a few days before the full moon. Most parasites, being water based organisms, time their reproductive schedule to the phases of the moon. There are certain foods that you can eat that are helpful as well. Pumpkin seeds are a good choice.</p>
<p>There are many natural options available when it comes to brands of cleanses. Check with your favorite health food store to see what they have to offer.  If any of you have had experiences with successful or failed cleanses, share those stories with us so we all can learn from them. This, more than any advertisements can tell us what really works.</p>
