Generally speaking, if you are healthy, parasites is not a big problem. Everyone have them in one form or another, whether from childhood or unconscious infection.
But when your health deteriorates and immune system is compromised, they will multiply and cause problems. People who are heavily infested have a list of major health and mental issues.
It's not an issue of favorite food etc. It's a choice of your health and well being, and I need to clean up the place where I live too
I used to enjoy raw fish but not anymore, considering where the fish used to hang out and the health of the person preparing your food. Everthing cooked is the way for me. Same goes for other types of meat. No salad as well.
Simple changes in hygiene and life style will go a long way.

Is there a way to enjoy jap food without fear of worms?
Don't listen to lies!
Anyone who knows how sushi is actually properly prepared/stored has nothing to fear of worms; which is one of the reasons the people who say otherwise in this thread are idiots!
I am not going to wait for those Goa'uld photos forever... :p Because they don't exist...
And since I don't believe Elroy ( and others) will retract the absurdly unscientific/ignorant statements made (of their own free will)....
I will confront the issue, more directly than just teasing them: http://www.ahealthyme.com/topic/sushi _________________ I Change My Dream Into An Ideal,

Shouldn't be in denial about parasites in your body. Half the worlds population is infected. Including US.
If you desire a parasite to be afraid of... I can tell you the name of the MOST fearsome one; a wondrous organism which receives little attention outside certain circles, yet infects Humans worldwide on a massive scale! ^^ _________________ I Change My Dream Into An Ideal,

If you realize how difficult it is to rid yourself of parasites, you will not want to mess with them in the first place. Much less ingesting the eggs, which freezing won't destroy.
The worms are not the worst. What's worst are the pathogens who reside in the worm's gut. They share a symbiotic relationship, which escalates when the worm dies.
Big worms like ascaris release all their eggs when they die prematurely. Instead of one big mother, now you have ten thousands of wrigglies (youtube link, video in Malay/Cantonese/English). Those eggs are meant to be dumped when you have a BM.
(Note : the video above is actually a tv programme in Malaysia, where the abdomen of a particular type of forest roach is applied to the face to force the worms to leave. Seems that roaches have a built-in mechanism against some parasites, due to their style of diet. Ahh.... for the love of pork in humans! You don't take pork raw, do you? Seems cooked pork doesn't make much difference and you want them fish in red???.)
For some parasites/worms, humans are not their preferred host. We inadvertently join in the party by consuming their original host, and this disrupts their intended/reproductive life cycle. As in the video above, the preferred host is pigs and the worms should stay in the gut to release eggs. But in humans, the worms get confused and go everywhere, including face/brain.
Survival instinct is the strongest force for all living beings. Parasites/worms are no different.
At animal farms, after a heavily infested horse is dewormed, the horse dies. The worms are trying to survive, and they do even when you don't.
Be scientific when you have a cure. Although at times, common sense is your best guide.
Quote:
".... In general, when Ascaris feel threatened they group together in their colonies to ball up causing blockages or intestinal obstructions.
I spoke to a surgeon who use to do many surgeries in India with people who had ascaris. He told me that they would find balls of ascaris along the intestinal tract.
How they removed them was to pull the intestines out and run their hands on the outside of the intestines to squeezing them out. Afterwards, a person was given a heavy dose of anthelmintics.... "
IIRC, betel nut (areca catechu/bing lang) is a neurotoxin to roundworms. With the proper dosage, it paralyzes them temporarily.

The veracity of those videos cannot be readily ascertained, so there is little use in posting them; at least for my sake.

Freezing/cooking will kill most anything (If done properly ~Keyword). ^^
Additionally, sperm and ova are everywhere (You have consumed such before, and you will again); it seems that truth disturbs you.

Prey tell, which specific pathogens in particular are you referring to, that can survive proper freezing and/or cooking protocols (And the exceptionally resilient nature of the Human immune system, which without, simple exposure to naturally-occurring pathogens in the very air you breathe would result in your death)? ^^

I don't consume pork at all, so that's a non-issue for myself.
Also, unlike some, I never consume raw fish. ^^
I prefer to err on the side of caution.

That is an accurate statement.
Although most parasites adapt to other hosts, to a greater or lesser extent; so its not so great a disruption as you might believe in most cases.

This is also another true statement.
Yet it does not mean that the highly improbable (impossible) shall suddenly become quite likely. _________________ I Change My Dream Into An Ideal,

Cats are carriers for T. Gondi, while canines carries heartworms. The house toilet is the first area to totally sterilize, followed by kitchen utensils used for processing raw meat.

Don't everyone get their undies in a knot. A lot of those sites are hype and resort to scare tactics.
Simple things like making sure your food is cooked and not putting your unwashed hands to your mouth is the best place to start besides good personal and home hygene.
Plus we have good bacteria, etc, so be careful of killing them with products that don't have any scientific studies. _________________ Evolve or Die
Before one can heal oneself, one must first get lost into illness. Getting lost is prerequisite to coming home.
Indulgence is prerequisite to moderation.
There is no good and bad habits. All habits are 'bad', being conscious is 'good'.
The only way one will kick any habit is by becoming more aware of the effects of such behavior, and this only comes through one's own experience.
'Believing' that something is good or bad for you doesn't make it your own truth, it remains borrowed information. Something borrowed is nothing gained.
Feeling that inhaling cigarette smoke is preventing needed oxygen from reaching the brain is enough to cause one to stop smoking. Remaining unconscious to this fact will allow the habit to continue.
An authentic healer will bring the patient to the point where he can take care of himself. Telling someone to not do 'this' or not to do 'that' will not cause this happen. The patient will only remain dependent upon the physician to make his decisions for him, always coming back for the next appointment. True healing will begin within the patient when these types of decisions are made for by himself.
One feels more alive the closer one comes to death. trying to be safe by doing to what others are saying is 'good' or 'bad' for you will keep you from experiencing for yourself - from deciding for yourself. One can remain safe and secure by staying in the house all their life, but it is not much of a life. One might as well crawl in a casket at the get-go if one is concerned about being safe and secure because it would be just a dead life.
If one were to remain perfectly healthy one's whole life, there would be nothing learned from such an existence. one would probably die of boredom. _________________ i2w Willpower : Being unconquerable lies with yourself. | Focus : Do not see, but watch the seeing. | Visualizations : Stretch as the boundaries of the Universe.
".... A newly discovered parasite so dramatically transforms its host, an ant, that the ant comes to resemble a juicy red berry, ripe for picking by birds ...."
Hmm... I see why not. Perhaps if you halve the dose after 6 mos. Just to be safe.

Incidentally- is it safe to take the humaworm tablets everyday for a year. I've been wondering if its good preventative measures
Follow the Humaworm instructions, which requires 90 days in between cleanses. The main reason is to prevent breeding resistant parasites, which is very dangerous and harmful.
Humaworm wrote:
After the 30 day cleanse, I usually recommend taking 1/4 teaspoon each of the following herbs daily - just add them to your food: garlic, onion, sage, thyme, ginger, cinnamon and cloves. You can just use the powdered ones found in the grocery store.
These will help keep the parasites in check without creating resistance.
Those horror cases in CZ are due to resistant parasites. Generally, resistance are created from using too weak herbs for too long, or too strong herbs for too short a duration.
Resistant parasites are very difficult to eradicate and the individual suffers immensely when the worms go on a riot/orgy (mostly full moon). Some people also over-react and consume all the anti-parasite products they can buy. This contributes to the problem. They now take 5x-8x of the normal dose to get any relief. Hospitals are facing the same problems with resistant bugs. So, don't overdo it!
It might be helpful to think of parasites in this manner : It's a guerilla type warfare, and our bodies are their terrain.
There are other supporting protocols which I'm trying at the moment : coffee enema and liver flush. The main focus is detox and restoring the most crucial detox organ (the liver). I even bought a stethoscope to listen to my liver gurgling during a flush/enema.

I think Humaworm capsules have reduced my morning headache and heaviness by 80%. It does work.
How bout yours, have you tried Humaworm capsule? What's your experience with it? _________________ “Essence, Chi, and Spirit are the three jewels of life.”
