There are Parasites Living Within All Of Us

---

On yesterday’s post, @ponts left a comment saying :

Day 4-6 is always the hardest imo. The stomach pains and excrement through the pores is enough to scare most people into putting more poisons back into their body that they were just trying to get out.

Some advice that helped me through my first time was that the stomach pains are not hunger pains. Hunger pain happens in your tongue and throat.

The feeling in your stomach is just the parasitic worms attacking you to feed them what they need to grow. Enemas are a great way to get rid of them, and a raw veganic diet will help keep them away.

This peaked my interest massively, as I had only roughly understood this fact but not in it’s entirety. So I decided to do some digging on the matter. And it turns out..

There are worms all up in your business

From my research on the matter, it seems that for the most part the human body is almost always carrying some form of parasite within us. One site went as far as to say that if you were to cleanse your body, it would take a whopping 6 months before more would be found inside of you, for they are so easy to contract.

You can contract parasites from:

Contaminated foods, especially foods that are a couple days old

• Undercooked meats, especially pork
• Uncleaned or contaminated fruits and vegetables
• Contaminated water, from unsanitary source, like lakes, ponds or creeks
• Infection through contact with your skin, some being infected from the bottom of your foot

That’s a long ass list.

Once a parasite enter your system, you can expect that they will intend to stay there, feed on the food that you are consuming and reproduce endlessly. Unless affirmative action is taken to remove them, they will be there, and worse, populate within you. I like to imagine they have normal lives, just like us, except, within us.

I have no doubt in my mind, that after eating all of my life, not to mention the fact that I am a slob and will basically consume anything, there are a bunch of parasites living within me. I have no doubt most people have them too.

Just to scare you a little, have a look at what they look like within you.

The absolute scariest case was from Hilde Larsen who posted on here blog https://inspiredbyhilde.com

I am laying down to go to sleep ( Stop reading now if you are going to freak out), and for some reason I reach and feel something that makes me tell my husband I am going to the bathroom. I felt something moving, and I freeze and get out of bed holding my breath! I get to the bathroom, close the door, and litterally pull out a 12 inch ascaries! It was crawling out of me, fully alive! I am standing there with a living roundworm in my hand, by its tail or head, and my heart skipped a few beats. My thoughts are spinning ,what the heck! During all these years I never saw anythng like it. This worm was running for its life, actually leaving me! My inner terrain is no longer livable, and that is a GOD thing. Still, I was blown away by the fact that it was actually still in there! I know I was crazy sick for a long time, but this conferms to me that they are very resistant, AND that we all have them.

This shows us that it is all about the terrain. It is about the cultivating medium, and it is about how we as humans live today. This might seem extreme and scary, but the only difference between this and not seeing anything is that THIS ONE actually came out.

Starve ‘Em Out

This is where fasting, once again is a miracle cure. By not eating, you are starving out these parasites within your body. These parasites will have no other option but to leave for greener pastures.

Doing a fast also help eliminate all the blockages that were caused by the worms. They sit in your gut, and make it hard to pass stools, so old waste accumulate there. It becomes a breeding ground for bad bacteria. Parasitic infections also disturb the gut flora (dysbiosis), which affects digestion and cause constipation, thus blockages. So fasting is great to clean all that mess.

Back to @ponts point:

Some advice that helped me through my first time was that the stomach pains are not hunger pains. Hunger pain happens in your tongue and throat.

The feeling in your stomach is just the parasitic worms attacking you to feed them what they need to grow. Enemas are a great way to get rid of them, and a raw veganic diet will help keep them away.

Through my own research, there are so many instances of people passing worms during a fast it almost seems like some that naturally happens when you fast for a long enough period.

My personal friend @ronino, who has just completed a 17 day fast a few days earlier, passed worms as well, and hunger left him completely after that. As such, I am inclined to agree with @ponts.

To think that I would have something new to cover about fasting for 28 days was really not something I thought through, but as I go, it really does seem more and more that the benefits of simply not eating is pretty crazy.

Day 6 of 28

Here we are on day 6! It really doesn’t seem like it has been 6 days since I last chewed on anything.

Today my overall well-being has improved again from yesterday, which was an improvement from the day before. It seems my transitional period is make good strides and once again, things are getting easier and easier from here.

The few things I noticed, is that my resistance to the cold is much lower and I can’t handle the cold quite as well as when I am eating. Not to mention, where I am, up north in the nordic region of Sweden, the temperatures drop quite low. Around this time it goes down to about -5 degrees and it is pitch black by 4pm.

Today I went out to a Christmas market which required riding my bike uphill for a short bit, and waiting in line out in the cold for a solid 20 minutes. By the time I got home, I had spent a good 45 minutes out in the cold, and did honestly, mild exercise at most. The overall experience as quite painful. I take it as my overall state of being to be considerably weakened at this point.

State of Being

Mental state is pretty much at 70% my usual cognitive state, I am still very much functional and am able to absorb information and think critically. Rather that there is a sense of mental fatigue.

Hunger Pangs first thing in the morning was basically non-existent and slowly came back around mid-day, maintaining about at a rate where it is bearable with slight need for self-control. I’d rate it at about 6/10 for the second half of the day, and 2/10 for the first half, giving an average of 4/10 in total, which would be an improvement over yesterday.

Since last night, I felt a lot activity in my lungs and throat. As I was covering yesterday, on how your body works to utilize the most unsavoury compounds within your body for fuel, what I have been experiencing seems to support this hypothesis, as the 3 places of which I have abused the most would be my brain, from extensive drug abuse in the past, and 10+ years of smoking.

I go into detail about my past in a earlier post : Journey of Total Human Optimization : Painful Beginnings

All in all, I’d say I’m making good progress and I expect to see continuous improvement in mental state and for hunger to leave me completely.

I am very interested to see what happens with my parasites as well, but as @ponts pointed out, it is really helpful to know that what you are feeling isn't hunger at all, rather, the parasites screaming. Sort of makes it sadomasochistic in a good way.

Money wise, I still don't exactly have a definitive solution. Steemit isn't paying close to enough, and seeing as how I'm actually losing money some day by using an Upvote Service and 50% goes to Steem Power, I don't exactly have the answer as to how to get home yet. The ticket home costs about $600 USD, so still anybody's guess how I'm going to make that happen.

Till tomorrow,

God Speed Brethren.
