What a brilliant thing your body is! Strategically designed to nourish, repair, strengthen and protect you.
“Disease begins in the colon” is heard frequently in the Natural Health circles and, although very simplified, we are beginning to see there is a lot of truth in those words.
Our typical North American diet leaves our digestive system lacking, often struggling, and vulnerable. But the threats don’t just come from within; they can also come from without.
Poor digestion can cause a toxic build-up in the body, including the colon.
This toxic waste material in the colon then frequently turns into - in the words of National Geographic - "a sinister world of monstrous creatures that feed on living flesh: parasites".
In a feature article in its August 2000 issue Discover Magazine published, "Every living thing has at least one parasite that lives inside or on it, and many, including humans, have far more.
Scientists are only just beginning to discover exactly how powerful these hidden inhabitants can be, but their research is pointing to a remarkable possibility: Parasites may rule the world.
The notion that tiny creatures we've largely taken for granted are such a dominant force is immensely disturbing.
We are collections of cells that work together, kept harmonized by chemical signals. If an organism can control those signals - an organism like a parasite - then it can control us.
And therein lies the peculiar and precise horror of parasites."
