Using Castor Oil to Naturally Cleanse Parasites from the Body
Castor oil has long been used as a natural remedy to gently flush out waste and toxins from the body. Recently, people have started taking castor oil to eliminate intestinal parasites as well. The oil's lubricating properties allow it to effectively drive parasites out of the intestines so they can be removed from the body.
Understanding Intestinal Parasites
Intestinal parasites are tiny organisms that can infect the gastrointestinal system if swallowed. Common types include worms, amoebas, or tiny bugs. They are contracted from contaminated food or water, contact with feces, or transmission from another infected human or animal.
Symptoms include digestive upset like diarrhea, abdominal pain, nausea, bloating, increased gas, skin irritation, fatigue, and even loss of appetite or weight loss in severe cases. Luckily, a short parasite cleanse using castor oil can flush out the invaders.
How Castor Oil Eradicates Parasites
Castor oil has a unique biochemical makeup that allows it to break down parasites' protective outer layers. As it passes through the small intestine, it dissolves tapeworms and other common parasites on contact. The slippery oil then pushes waste out of the body naturally.
Additionally, some compounds in castor oil are thought to paralyze worms and parasites, preventing them from latching onto the intestinal lining. This anti-parasitic effect makes castor oil ideal for a safe, effective parasite cleanse.
Using Castor Oil to Cleanse Parasites
Ready to banish intestinal parasites for good? Here is how to do a castor oil cleanse:
Assemble Your Supplies
For each day of the cleanse you'll need:
- 1-2 oz of high quality, cold-pressed castor oil
- 8 oz pure fruit juice (grape, apple, prune, or lemon juice are common choices)
- A saline laxative or herbal stimulant laxative tea
- Activated charcoal capsules
Prepare and Cleanse
Start by eating lightly 1-2 days prior. To cleanse:
- In the morning, drink a laxative tea and take several charcoal capsules.
- One hour later, mix castor oil with your juice to emulsify then drink all at once.
- Wait as the castor oil takes effect (2-6 hours) flushing toxins and parasites.
- Take more charcoal capsules that evening before bed to further capture any remaining parasites.
- Repeat daily for 3-7 days depending on severity of infection.
Flush with lots of fluids like bone broth in between for electrolytes. Rest while cleansing to conserve energy so your body can heal.
Tips for an Effective, Safe Castor Oil Parasite Cleanse
While using castor oil to cleanse parasites is generally very safe, be sure you follow proper protocols. Here are some top tips:
Check with Your Doctor First
Make sure you consult with your doctor before doing a parasite cleanse, especially if you have gastrointestinal conditions, take medications, are elderly, pregnant/nursing, or have complicating health factors.
Test for Parasites Beforehand
Submit a stool sample to your doctor so proper parasites are detected and the cleanse can be tailored accordingly. Common parasitic infections include blastocystis hominis, giardia lamblia, cryptosporidium, and entamoeba histolytica.
Use High Quality Castor Oil
Be sure your castor oil is certified USP grade and hexane-free. High ricinoleic acid cold-pressed castor oil offers superior cleansing over cheaper versions. Source from reputable brands through health stores or online.
Increase Dosage Slowly
Begin with small 1 teaspoon doses of castor oil, slowly increasing to the goal 1-2 ounce dosage. This allows your body to adjust and reduces intensity of side effects like cramping or nausea until parasites are eliminated.
A castor oil parasite cleanse is an excellent way to reset digestive health and flush out nasty invaders. Be diligent and patient with the process to fully detoxify your GI system.
