Great post.

I too, have had to change herbs along the way. Resistance is a concern.

I don't think I'll ever understand these critters.

I'm in agreement with you too about herbal protocols. This needs to be rethought out -- the duration, timing, and what type of herbs are needed is crucial. One way of knowing that you're off track is when you feel too comfortable with what you're taking.

Let's not forget that parasites are manipulators of their hosts; they don't like to feel uncomfortable. It is a false sense of security to take something for a long period of time, especially, if there are no significant changes. Actually, you do more harm than good. Therefore, if you're uncomfortable, the parasites are uncomfortable too! Changing up the program is a must to keep them off guard.

I agree. I just learned something interesting about the ascaris too, that I hadn't known before. It's hard to understand the scientific stuff alot of times, but Ascaris put off an "enzyme inhibitor", which is their way of protecting themselves from being "digested" by what our bodies are supposed to use for digesting foods.
That makes sense, and is most likely the reason that the products like the Standard Process Zymex2, which are solely enzymes (papain, bromelain, and ficin), are used for killing tapeworms. I knew ascaris have the 3 layers of skin that make them harder to hit too, and thought that was the reason the enzymes also kill ascaris too, but I hadn't considered that our digestive enzymes are already diminished by the ascaris, because of them putting out this enyzme inhibitor.

All of the Systemic Formulas VRM products, have a proteolytic enzyme in them. The VRM2 that I was on specially when I was killing ascaris, also had the instructions in the manual in the ND's office, that said "unless you are committed to following the program for the duration, don't start". They are taken in rounds, 10 days on, 5 days off- for a minimum of 4 rounds. For the duration too, no red meat could be eaten, because they intended the enzyme in it to digest the parasites, not food. I've found them to be important with all parasite killing, for several different reasons. If a parasite is killed in a closed cavitity (like the heart- say, dog heart worm), the proteolytic enzymes work like little "pac men" to clean up the decaying stuff. Another thing they do, is hit the cysts that may be hidden from the immune system by biofilms, so the immune system is able to recognize them and kill them.

I've found alot of information on how Proteolytic enzymes, taken in between meals, work "systemically", and are used in many Alternative cancer treatments too. The better types are sold by the unit, not by the mg's.
