Harmony In Healing - Holistic Health & Wellness

Cleansing your body of parasites is so important!

In my holistic approach to nutrition and healing, I always say to people that we should start with cleansing the body, detoxing, and removing parasites. If there are still problems after that, we work from there. But in a surprisingly high number of people, parasites are the cause.
🌿🌿🌿
No one like to hear that, I always have people who say “no I definitely don’t have them, I don’t eat meat” or some other version of that. But the reality is that restaurants, public bathrooms, airplanes, fresh produce, swimming pools and hot tubs (even our own), fitness equipment in a gym, garden produce, and most foods we eat expose us to parasites.
🌿🌿🌿
So here’s a list for everyone to take a look at. It might save you literally years of struggling to find answers to your most troubling health concerns.
🌿🌿🌿
The Symptoms of Parasite Infections

STOMACH & INTESTINAL COMPLICATIONS – The number of parasites in the lower digestive system and the toxic waste produced by them can cause:

Diarrhea
Chronic Constipation
Gas & Bloating
Digestive Problems
Early Bowel Movements (explosive bowel movements very soon after eating)
Abdominal Pain
Mucus in the Stools
Leaky Gut
Nausea
Hemorrhoids
Burning in the Stomach
Bloody Stools

FATIGUE - The toxic metabolic waste overloads the organs of elimination and taxes the central nervous system causing:

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Low Energy
Lethargy
Excessive Weakness

SKIN DISORDERS & ALLERGIES – Parasites that pe*****te the skin cause itching. When tissue becomes inflamed from these parasites, the body’s white blood cells increase to defend the body. This reaction causes skin rashes and food allergies to appear. Symptoms include:

Dry Skin
Dry Hair
Brittle Hair
Hair Loss
Allergies
Itchy Nose
Itchy A**s
Itchy Skin
Hives
Allergic Reactions to Food
Crawling Sensation Under the Skin
Rashes
Weeping Eczema
Cutaneous Ulcers
Papular Lesions
Swelling
Sores

MOOD & ANXIETY PROBLEMS – Toxic metabolic waste produced by the parasites that attack the central nervous system causing:

Mood Swings
Nervousness
Depression
Forgetfulness
Unclear Thinking
Restlessness
Anxiety
Slow Reflexes

SLEEP DISTURBANCES – The physical presence of the parasites themselves are a nuisance to the human body. The body reacts to them during periods of rest, this in turn produces:

Insomnia
Teeth Grinding During Sleep
Bed Wetting
Drooling While Asleep
Disturbed Sleep – Multiple Awakenings

WEIGHT & APPETITE PROBLEMS – Parasites live undetected by their hosts. They rob the body of all essential nutrients., while you are left with fats, sugars, etc. This leads to extreme difficulty in losing weight, and also causes constant hunger. Other people can’t gain weight because of the parasites.

Weight Gain
Obesity
Loss of Appetite OR
Uncontrollable Hunger, Eating More Than Normal and Still Feeling Hungry
Inability to Gain or Lose Weight

MUSCLE & JOINT COMPLAINTS – Parasites can travel to almost all soft tissue including joints and muscles where they cause cysts and inflammation that is commonly mistaken as arthritis and muscle pain. The toxins from parasites can also pool in the joints and in muscle tissue causing:

Muscle Pain
Joint Pain
Muscle Cramping
Numbness of the Hands and/or Feet
Heart Pain
Pain in The Navel
Pain in the Back, Thighs or Shoulders
Arthritic Pains
Fast Heartbeat

BLOOD DISORDERS – The parasites can leach iron, causing:
Hypoglycemia
Anemia

SEXUAL & REPRODUCTIVE PROBLEMS – With a weakened immune system caused by parasites and their waste you also can experience:

Male Impotence
Erectile Dysfunction
PMS
Candida – Yeast Infections
Urinary Tract Infections
Cysts & Fibroids
Menstrual Problems
Prostate Problems
Water Retention

OTHER SYMPTOMS – More health problems caused by parasites:

Excessive Saliva
Unclear Vision
Bad Breath
Poor Immune Response
Fever
Respiratory Problems
Peritonitis
Chronic Viral or Bacterial Symptoms
Body Odor

Do any of these apply to you?

Have you tried many things and none of them work to rid of the symptoms?

There are so many more symptoms and I have them posted in a previous post if you’d like to look for them.

These are the most common and many of us are led to believe they are normal because they are normalized.

Normal and normalized are NOT the same.

Being tired frequently and “needing” coffee/caffeine or daily naps is not normal.

PMS is NOT normal. Our bodies should not hurt before or during our period. Our mood should not drastically change because of our period/cycle.

Constant bloating and gas is not normal. That means something is off in your gut.

When these things happen our body is telling us something is not right.

It could be telling you that you are overloaded with toxins, parasites, candida, imbalance if gut bacteria, infection, something isn’t working properly and/or you are holding repressed emotions or trauma.

I say this constantly, our body communicates with us constantly.

Are you listening??

💚💚💚 YOU CAN HEAL!!

If there is one thing to take away from my posts and experiences is that there is hope and you can heal.

YOU have to take the steps. No one can do it for you.

You are capable. You are worthy. You deserve to be happy and healthy 💕

Straight facts.

Facts.

Evidence.

They matter.

People who lack extensive education in nutrition science seek to confuse you with disconnected bits of information, all with an end goal: to justify their addiction to flesh.

The science is clear, and simple. Three diseases will kill almost everyone you know:

Heart Disease
Cancer
T2 Diabetes

Evidence and science support ONLY plant based eating as being capable of helping to prevent these diseases.

Candida can wreak havoc in the body.

It’s in our gut but can quickly overgrow and move to different parts in our body.

Candida is opportunistic and if you take something like antibiotics, which kill all the bacteria in your intestinal tract and can reside in the liver for long after that round, candida will take its opportunity to take over.

Same with stress. Chronic stress lowers your immune system’s function which makes you more susceptible to candida overgrowth. Since 2/3 of our immune system is in our gut, if the bacteria in your gut cannot properly function, your chances of candida overgrowth are greater.

Alcohol is toxic for the body (organic wine too) and it overburdens our liver. First of all, it kills your gut bacteria and feeds candida. Second, if your liver is overburdened and your body cannot keep up with the toxic overload, your body will become acidic and toxic which is a perfect environment for candida and parasites to grow.

Birthcontrol is synthetic hormones. If your natural hormones are altered for long periods of time (a year or so or longer) your body will be stressed, your immune system lowered and candida will gladly take over.

Processed foods and foods with refined sugars are perfect for candida environment. Not only do they feed candida and parasites, which is why you get intense cravings for them, but they also create an acidic environment in the body.

When you have candida and parasites, most of the nutrients you eat are stolen. Your energy is taken too.
You are left with an acidic body and nutrient deficiencies.

Deficiencies and an acidic body is how all diseases start.

If your gut is lined with candida and/or parasites you will not be able to absorb vitamins and minerals from food or supplements.

This is why when you heal your body you begin to see so many changes including energy levels, skin, hair, nails, appetite, sleep, weight and hormones.

This is your body being able to absorb what you’re giving it.

The beauty?
There is hope and you can heal your body with food. Food truly IS medicine.

Use food as your daily medicine to prevent disease!

I used to try to survive through each day.

To be honest, I couldn’t wait to die.

I was miserable every day.

I dealt with horrible PMDD for most of the month. Symptoms varied depending on the time of my cycle.

I would go from terrible PMS and heavy flow during my period. Then, had a good week with a lot of energy where I would try to squeeze in as much as possible while I could.
Then came the two weeks of dread where I would become extremely fatigued, achey, irritable, sad, lonely, depressed and anxious and even suicidal.

Each day was a struggle.

I couldn’t lose weight. I kept gaining more.

I couldn’t concentrate, speak or think clearly.

I slept about 13 hours per day but never felt rested.

I was just trying to make it through each day.

It sucked. I constantly wondered what the point of living was. I hated my life and was angry at my body.

The thing is that I was doing all the wrong things and they manifested as sickness in my body.

I wanted to change.. but I had tried and been to many doctors, counselors and psychiatrists. I had tried to follow diets, to exercise, to do energy healing and taken spiritual roads.

NOTHING HELPED!!

I started to lose hope. I believed I was doomed.

Fortunately, I was wrong!!

I found Heal Candida Now and I healed so many things I didn’t even know I needed to heal. I didn’t know they could be healed.

After living in a sick body for decades, I am finally able to know what it’s like to live in a healthy body.

It feels AMAZING!!

This cleanse saved me. Literally saved my life because I no longer have suicidal thoughts, depression, PMS, PMDD, foggy thinking. I have gained so much energy!! (Green juices are amazing 💚)

There’s hope!!!

Listen to your body! Love your liver!

Our liver is so important for detoxification of the body.

When our liver isn’t supported and working properly, everything else starts to get backed up. Likewise, when our elimination pathways aren’t working, our liver becomes overburdened.

I previously posted about how our bodies can become easily overburdened with the amount of toxins we are exposed to on a daily basis. They can get flooded with toxins even when our organs and our elimination pathways are working properly.

Now imagine if you are being exposed to an insane amount of toxins but your organs and processes are not working properly. That’s a double whammy!

Your body will do all it can do to keep you safe and alive. This means that when there is a toxic overload and your detoxification organs can’t keep up, your body will take as many toxins as it can and store them in fat cells, organs(including your brain), lymphatic system, etc.

Do you really want toxins stored in those places? Especially your brain? ABSOLUTELY NOT!

These toxins can wreak havoc on your body. On all your organs. And your body will start to tell you that something is not right. This is when you start to get signs and symptoms of toxic overload like fatigue, headaches, depression, seasonal allergies, etc.

Let’s say you choose to silence your body, like many of us are taught to do, by taking tylenol/allergy medicine or other medication. Your symptoms are suppressed.. For a short period of time. Until they come back because you didn’t address the problem.

Taking medication doesn’t address or heal the root cause of a problem. It silences your body’s cry for help.

You know what’s happening on the inside?
You are impairing one or both liver phases of detoxification, depleting your body’s glutathione (master antioxidant) AND these things keep the cycle going!

Your liver isn’t working well so toxins aren’t being properly eliminated, you get more and more headaches and allergies overtime, you take more and more medication, and you keep impairing your body’s ability to do its job.

You are actually working against yourself. Sabotaging your own health without even realizing it.

Listen to your body. Stop silencing it. Clean up your diet and environment.

THIS IS CRUCIAL!

Detox your body. Feed it real, healthy food. Daily.

I have learned so much from Liana Shanti, the founder of Health Mastery Institute . Something that really stuck with me was when she said something along the lines of “You cannot heal a toxic body.” I don’t know if that’s exactly how she said it but it makes total sense.

Detox, heal, and maintain to thrive.

At Health Mastery Institute we learn about the body, in depth, from the last 50 years of scientific research and studies. Liana Shanti, the founder, has been studying nutrition for over 30 years and all I have learned and implemented has radically changed my health.

This is why I educate others!!

Many of us are dealing with toxic overload.

We encounter high amounts of toxins daily. These toxins come from our environment in our food, air, water. And they include heavy metals, pesticides, industrial compounds, cosmetic additives, and chemical byproducts.

Our bodies can easily become overloaded with toxins, especially if they aren’t being supported with the right nutrition and an effort to reduce our own exposure to toxins.

But what does it look like when your body is overloaded with toxins?

Most common symptoms of toxic overload:
🚩Fatigue- sluggish, feeling unrested
🚩Headache
🚩Muscle and joint pain
🚩Depression
🚩Foggy mind/confusion
🚩Digestive issues
🚩Heart problems
🚩Flu-like symptoms
🚩Allergic reactions such as skin issues or seasonal allergies

Severe symptoms:
🚩Multiple Sclerosis
🚩Fibromialgia
🚩Autoimmune diseases
🚩Rheumatoid Arthritis
🚩Inflammatory diseases
🚩Neurological diseases- alzheimer's, dementia, parkinson’s

Are experiencing any of these or know someone who is?

TIME TO DETOX!

and clean up you diet and environment 💜
