Herbs That Eliminate Parasites

These herbs do not act as strong as antiparasitic drugs and have a slower action. But, they will have a drastically less toxic effect on the body and have a long term effect of keeping parasites at bay. These herbs primarily treat round worms, tape worms and hook worms with para-umbilical pain, vomiting, varied appetite and rectal/nose/ear itching. The patient may also be fatigued, emaciated and have a distended abdomen. The herbs should be taken on an empty stomach several times per day as directed by your TCM doctor. These herbs should not be used if there is a fever or severe abdominal pain present in the patients main symptoms.

Lorna McFadden, DCH

I have been a certified dental assistant for the past 16 years. Over that time I have been interested in many of the healing arts. In 1993, I became a reflexologist and continued to study other forms of alternative health. My passion for Homeopathy began when I was treated by a homeopath in 1998. I really resonated with the philosophy and treatment of homeopathy. Only after a few consultations I knew I had to become involved and help heal others. With restored health and a great deal of energy, I am driven to study this wonderful healing art. I have successfully completed the first milestone in my homeopathic career by graduating from the Vancouver Homeopathic Academy. I hope to write my Certification of Classical Homeopathy in the next few years. I am a member of the West Coast Homeopathic Society and regularly attend study sessions to stay updated and educated. I also attend local trade shows and educate the public on Homeopathy. I am recently married and reside in Langley with two cats and a golden retriever named Montana. My animals are wonderful homeopathic patients.
