detox – Page 2 – The Detox Depot

I have spent countless hours reviewing medical journals and articles, as well as poring over experiences posted in medical/parental support groups in hopes of finding help for my family coping with severe ASD. The anguish I read and the agony we have lived has fully traumatized me. I have worked so hard on these issues in our home, and I know you have too. I have done everything minus stem cell and now I wish I had started here, with parasites, first. I hope I can save you years of distress. (Edit 2023 – I just went back to college. It was clear that no one could help us. I focused on Homeopathy, Biofeedback, and natural medicine. It is clear to me still, that detox needs to happen, but Biofeedback, Homeopathy, and Herbal were the clear winning protocols for us and what I focused on in school. I opened my own practice and there is a link below the article if you would like help.)

We had been through the whole ASD debacle which, for us, is vaccine injury and vitamin K poisoning as per pediatrician MD and immunologist MD/PhD.

I have been recovering our family for about 15 years, half of which I didn’t even realize I was using biomed. Diet and gut were obvious issues that I somewhat addressed during the early years. But intentionally, I have used biomed for over seven years implementing diet changes, supplementation, safe chelation which was incredibly helpful for one of mine; scores of blood, urine, stool, and hair samples, allergy shots, camel milk, homeopathy, MAPS doc, tons of therapy, the whole nine yards.

But nothing kicked recovery square into high gear like connecting the dots of ASD, PANS, PANDAS, Lyme and parasites. Once this connection was made we got full relief from PANDAS, became able to control PANS while ASD and Lyme continue to die a slow death.

We did not use a single (pharma) antibiotic, we definitely did not use a single psychotropic drug. And, from my research, all of the above makes things worse.

Why?

Because the body is already boiling over with infection, the gut is often so wholly ruined, and the immune system can no longer methylate (process) the destructive properties of synthetic drugs out of the body. Let’s get real here. The toxic, chemical ingredients of pharma drugs aren’t recognized by the body as healing. There is nothing in the body composed of those chemicals. How could the body be healed by anything that un-natural, indeed toxic?

The strain causes the body to completely snowball as it tries to rid itself of manufactured medicine. What’s worse, the drugs are suppressive, pushing illness further into the body, exponentially risking further auto immune disease. We need infections to come out, not cram them back in. We see this all the time with eczema and steroid use: eczema >asthma>food allergies>leaky gut>Crohns> ASD or other mental illness. We are brainwashed to not see the association, but critically connecting the dots reveals that steroid use, especially, causes mental and behavioral problems. Nowadays, so many of us are eyewitnesses to the destructive nature of Western medicine that it is difficult to defend it anymore.

We manage the complications of PANDAS and PANS, ASD, Lyme and co-infections by detoxing parasites and infections using biofeedback, herbals, homeopathics. As a side note, we have also regenerated the organs as well. Namely the digestive organs, thyroid, kidneys, and liver. Lyme can do a lot of damage to the organs so restoring them is important. Signs that these are healed are regular and proper bowel movements without pain, better emotions and mental ability, reduced food allergens, eczema clearing up, regular urination without pain, gallstones and kidney stones reduced or eliminated, and the colic of the same organs reduced and eliminated as well.

The surprising benefit of parasite and infection detox was witnessing the symptoms of ASD, PANDAS and PANS melt away. It was gradual, yet obvious, and despite the length of time it takes to properly detox, it did not take long for the benefits to appear. Flares lost intensity and frequency, triggers disappeared, trivial incidents causing psycho-drama lasting for hours no longer tormented us, auditory hallucinations ceased, OCD and repetitive questions stopped, and symptoms of ‘ASD’ improved. One of my family members dropped a whopping 75 points from ATEC score and finally became potty trained at the age of nine. These are just a handful of many examples.

Like so many other issues, I fell down the parasite rabbit hole long before it was cool, and intuitively knew this was a problem we were dealing with. I dug up articles, scouted websites, read books, unearthed videos, discovered ‘herx’. Our MD/PhD immunologist with thirty years of experience (allopathic doctor Trusty Dusty) humored me by ordering tests. They all came back negative, of course.

Going rogue, I tried some herbs during full moon phases, but symptoms just seemed to get worse, so, discouraged, I gave up. I mean, I could trust Trusty Dusty’s negative test results, right?

Wrong. So painfully wrong.

When we spiraled from ‘home bound’ to ‘bed bound’ a friend suggested a Chiropractor/Kinesiologist who practices functional medicine and is Lyme Literate. After enduring years of Doctor Trusty Dusty’s’ incredulous protocols which left us broke, sick, and sometimes fearing death, I had nothing to lose.

At our first appointment, sure enough, the new doctor confirmed what my gut intuition said years before.

Parasites. Cringe. I knew he was right. Not only were they there, but now they had had years to multiply and get worse.

For all my time probing and scrutinizing in the rabbit hole I still had no idea how insanely hard excommunicating creepy crawlies would be or how long it would take. I had no real-life scope of herxing or experience with a healing crisis. I had barely put the parasite piece into the detox puzzle. I knew the language but had zero experience. I certainly had no clue that killing parasites would be a key to most of our auto-immune disease.

What We Did

Using Kinesiology, our new doctor determined what kinds of parasites we were dealing with and what products were best to fight them. Burned out from Trusty Dusty’s barbaric blood draws, kinesiology seemed to be the perfect, less invasive, alternative for us. Surprisingly, we muscle tested best for differing protocols despite have similar issues.

HIndsight Edit 2023: At the end of the day, which was about 4 years, we had used a ton of products that I don’t recommend anymore, they have all been deleted from my site. Additionally, we spent a lot of money with a doctor whose fees went insanely through the roof as his social media footprint grew larger and larger. Granted, staff needed to be added. I get that. And despite having massive improvements of reduced symptoms and better ATEC scores; one of mine ended up having major organ problems that the doctor somehow just didn’t muscle test for. They were not new; they had been present all along yet never detected by kinesiology? That didn’t sit well with me. These were major organs and major issues. This really upset me, on a betrayal level, and sent me into an overwhelming and life-altering tailspin. Determined, I went back to school myself to learn how to heal them. Also, I do feel the products made the issue worse, hence I do not list any of them anymore. I was more than discouraged at this point. So discouraged, in fact, that as I mentioned, I went back to school myself.

How long to detox parasites?

What I have learned is that a parasite detox will be super short for some – like maybe an entire moon phase or 28-30 days. Or it will be many, many months, like eighteen for example. It could also be something that is ongoing for life. I can’t say which it will be for you.

When I observe symptoms that manifest first as behavior, then I know the parasites are gaining an upper hand and need to be swatted back down. I do not believe infections are ever ‘cured’ but rather managed.

We essentially do not ‘kill’ parasites and this mindset isn’t good for the detox. “They know.” Instead, work for an equilibrium where the parasites exist – because some have good functions for us – but our human immune system has them under control. I think the parasites are happier like this too.

What I was not expecting was that symptoms of PANS/ PANDAS were greatly reduced or gone. Auditory hallucinations, debilitating flares that used to happen out of the blue, at any given moment, ceased and the triggers that caused the flares melted away. Repetitive questions stopped. ATEC scores plummeted. One of my family members dropped 75 ATEC points over the course of a year. Auto-immune Encephalitis (AE) and (PANS) flares are now under control and preventable, thyroid is regenerated, severe food allergies are minimal now. I could go on and on, the health we have regained is phenomenal.

On My Own? Or With Guidance?

If the case is chronic and systemic, if there are multiple auto-immune problems then I suggest guidance with someone who can help with drainage and support of the main detox systems of the body – kidney, liver, spleen, the glands, the digestive system, skin, etc. For us, the most effective methods included biofeedback, homeopathic, herbal, diet, and other supports like liver packs, essential oils, massage, etc.

After trying many types of modalities, I can say that Biofeedback to moniter, guide, and provide frequencies to reduce the stress surrounding every issue of detox, along with homeopathic and herbal support in conjunction with good diet and nutrition won the day for us.
