Parasites? Almost everyone has some! You can ingest them via water or the food you eat (undercooked meats or sushi). Walking barefoot, feces, insects and animals are other sources. While it is unlikely that you will ever be completely parasite free you can decrease them via herbs, minimize medications (antibiotics and steroids), wear shoes when outside, take shoes off in house, don't sleep with pets, avoid animal "kisses" and mosquitoes, ingest more fiber, take digestive enzymes, drink your body weight in good quality bioavailable water, do regular colonics, and eat a better diet (less processed foods and sugars).

Pamper your immune system by pampering your digestive system. 80% of your immune system is in your digestive system. Learn about prebiotics, probiotics, alkalinity and parasites in the article called Good Digestive Health = Good Health!

Breathe deep! Not only will it reduce stress, but it will help you bring more oxygen into your body and detoxify it too. Take at least 5 minutes a day to focus on your breathing.
