Is a Parasite Cleanse For You?
Parasite Cleanses are news to me. When I first heard about it on Instagram I had to know more. The more and more I read I was APPALLED. One that parasites are just living in us at all times and this is a normal thing ~ for some reason I never realized this and secondly that we are getting parasites through food we are eating every day and these then affect our body and energy levels.
All in all I was intrigued to know more and I’m here to share my experience in hopes you can consider if this would be good for you to try.
About Parasite Cleanse:
I found out about parasite cleanses from Organic Olivia who created a formula that combines everything you need to cleanse the parasites from your body in one single pill. This made it super easy, you will need 1 bottle to complete a 30 day cleanse (she suggests you do 30 days for an accurate cleanse).
I read everything about Organic Olivia’s parasite cleanse blog post HERE. This intrigued me the most and basically sold me on the cleanse because of the crazy results with her skin and diet she saw. You also receive a free E-book when you purchase the product with step-by-step guides on how to do the cleanse and important things to know!
Another reason I thought the cleanse would be great for me was 1. I had never done a parasite cleanse and she suggests 1x a year you do one and 2. she suggested anyone who craves sugar most likely needs to be do a parasite cleanse (aka me all the time).
I also was intrigued to see the gut health changes I would see, results and skin results that come with cleansing your body of parasites that are living off the bad bacteria in our bodies.
During Cleanse:
During the cleanse it’s suggested you try to cut back on carbs as much as possible. Think about it, the parasites are living off the sugar and carbs you feed your body. When you consume carbs and yeast it turns into sugar which then becomes food for the parasites which will keep them living as long as you feed them.
I did a grocery haul where I filled my cart with fruits, veggies, nuts and healthy snacks knowing that I would be hungry during the day without many carbs.
My grocery haul: Veggies for dinner, fruits for snack, dried fruit for mid-day snacking, rice (I did eat rice which is a carb), veggie chips and basically anything healthy but filling I could get away with. (No carbs, dairy, meat)
You take 4 pills/per day. Take 2 pills 30 min-1 hour before your lunch and 30 min-1 hour before dinner. I made sure to bring a stash of pills with me to work, in my apartment and with me incase I would be eating out. It truly isn’t hard and this is all you need to do for the cleanse!
It’s suggested it’s very important to drink lots of water to keep your gut healthy, flushed out and cleaning itself during the cleanse. I cut back on caffeine knowing that it probably wasn’t that great to be cleansing while feeding myself caffeine every morning. It’s not necessary to do this but I did!
The first 2 weeks was when I felt my body reacting the most to the cleanse. I would be using the bathroom more frequently (due to both water increase and being on the cleanse - and no you won’t be running to the bathroom to go #2 like some may think). I also could feel my stomach breaking down the bacteria (maybe this was me convincing myself but my stomach was moving around right after I would eat and take the pills).
I felt less bloated within 48 hours of the starting the cleanse. Both due to the limited carbs I was eating and also the cleanse. It was insane how good I felt so fast and the limited bloat I was experiencing.
I was traveling on a few vacations at the time and I did end up eating pizza or pasta while cleansing (oh no! JK it’s not the end of the world). I still continued taking the pills like instructed regardless that I was digesting carbs as well.
I did a full 30 days and rarely missed taking any pills and felt SO much better after in terms of energy, my skin results, daily bloat was almost non-existent and my body felt rejuvenated! I began recommending the cleanse to all of my friends who I knew dealt with digestion issues, skin issues, who are looking for new health and wellness tips and anyone else!
Since you are killing good and bad bacteria it’s important to take a probiotic to feed the good bacteria back into your body. I used this probiotic during the cleanse HERE.
Results:
The big results I took away were my energy levels, how my body wasn’t holding bloat or swelling whatsoever, my body felt rejuvenated and my skin was glowing!
You are doing a cleanse meaning your body is cycling out bad toxins (but also good) and some can experience crazy things doing so. I didn’t experience anything too crazy besides on my 2nd day I did get a headache which they can say is the toxins releasing in your body (so crazy) and I didn’t mind it because I was so fascinated the cleanse was working so fast.
I never saw any worms leave my body although I am convinced that parasites we’re 100% in my body and did leave during the cleanse (use your imagination for this and read her blog post if you’re curious). My digestion was on a cycle and clearing itself out so well that I give a reason for no bloating and such high energy levels was due to this!
I felt great at the end of the cleanse! I personally have been on a vegetarian and vegan diet for 4 years so I believed I didn’t see any crazy parasites leave my bodies because I am not eating meat which is a HUGE way we consume parasites. Although, even for following an animal-free diet I still saw parasites leaving my body and could tell they were dying.
I have already completed another cleanse since being that I have never done one before in my life and knowing I probably have more parasites to kill. I will 100% continue to use Organic Olivia’s Parapro formula for future parasite cleanses and have only good things to say about it!
My mental clarity was through the roof! I felt like nothing could stop me and I was on top of the world. I was so in tune with my body and brain that I was on fire for the 30 days during the cleanse. I was feeling so good in every way it was amazing!
