Whole Body Health, Where to Start Detoxing? Steps to Detox Safely. >Intro to Parasites. What I have found< So many people think parasite detox is a "one and done" deal during the full moon, or whenever. I did. Until I dove into some research. It's not. If you have them, you HAVE them(along with heavy metals and more). And EVERYBODY has them. Picture this: A single mommy parasite takes up residence in one part of your body. She then proceeds to lay thousands of eggs. While she is alive, she secretes a hormone that keeps the eggs from hatching. When she dies she stops secreting that hormone and the eggs begin to hatch. And the newly hatched parasites proceed to expand their territory and lay eggs of their own. Now imagine this process repeating itself but with multiple species of parasites, all living their lives happily in your body at the same time.
