Frequently Asked Questions About Parasite Cleanses

Q: How does an effective parasite cleanse formula work?

An effective parasite cleanse formula should work synergistically to help eliminate intestinal parasites and worms while promoting a healthy gut microbiome. In order to do so, it must contain ingredients that have antiparasitic properties as well as natural herbs to improve gut health. Specific key ingredients have been shown to help kill parasites and clinical trials provide data to support the claims. These ingredients include herbs such as Sweet Wormwood, Black Walnut, Barberry Extract, Garlic, and Pumpkin Seeds. Another notable ingredient is Papain, a digestive enzyme that helps kill parasites by breaking down their proteins. It should also contain a bioavailability enhancer, such as BioPerine®, which speeds up results.

The correct formula holds the key to success, so look for something that contains ingredients backed by scientific data that work to kill parasites while supporting gut health. The formula should not be filled with ingredients that only look good on the label, but rather with ingredients that have been clinically proven effective and are backed by scientific research for optimum results. 

Q: Do all parasite cleanse formulas work?

Unfortunately, they do not. There are many shady companies that just go along with the latest health supplement trends, formulating supplements that contain incorrect ingredients and wrong potency or amounts. Often, they even add unnecessary inactive ingredients or cheap fillers, binders, hormones, artificial colorings and preservatives that can hinder the effects of the active ingredients. Do your homework and check the labels to make sure you are taking a quality product and not just some powder in a pill. 

Q: What are the important points to look out for?

An effective parasite cleanse should contain:

• Sweet Wormwood Extract which is effective for helping to kill parasites. 
• Black Walnut to eliminate microbes and fight parasitic infections. 
• Garlic to fight off various types of parasites.
• Barberry Extract for inhibiting parasites, particularly tapeworms.
• Triphala for supporting parasite elimination and promoting a healthy gut flora.
• Pumpkin Seed Extract for paralyzing parasites, allowing them to be flushed out of the body.
• Papain for its properties that help kill parasitic worms.
• BioPerine® to increase bioavailability for speedy relief.
• No fillers, binders, or any artificial ingredients or colorings.
• 100% pure and natural ingredients with additives that might reduce the overall effectiveness of the product.
• A money-back guarantee. 

**Please note: Black Walnut should NOT be taken regularly for more than 2 weeks at a time.

Q: Are there any known side effects to look out for?

Of course, each product is different, so it is always wise to read the label thoroughly and follow the manufacturer’s instructions carefully. Our research analyzed many natural ingredients and products that generally do not present any side effects if used correctly. However, as with any supplement, we recommend consulting with a doctor if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, have an existing medical condition or taking regular medication.

As mentioned above, Black Walnut should not be taken regularly for long periods of time, but should be safe to use in the short term.

Q: What are the dosage instructions for parasite cleanse products?

This differs between products. Always read the label thoroughly and follow the manufacturer’s instructions carefully. Generally, we found that most products suggest taking 4 capsules per day during the cleanse phase, and 2 capsules a day for maintenance. Exceeding the suggested dosage could pose serious health risks. Most parasite cleanses are not meant to be used regularly for more than a month. Black Walnut should not be used regularly for more than 2 weeks at a time.

Q: How long before I start to see results?

Some consumers experience positive effects within as little as a week. For others it can take longer. Everybody is different. Results will vary depending on factors such as diet, lifestyle choices, and genetic disposition. There are many manufacturers that offer refunds should you not get the results that you are looking for. Such a guarantee shows the manufacturer’s confidence in its products and the results you will achieve. Make sure that you don’t take the product for longer than the manufacturer recommends, as this could pose serious health risks.

Q: What should I expect to pay for a good parasite cleanse?

The cost of products varies among manufacturers. Unfortunately, many are cheap, useless supplements that have been formulated without any science-based evidence behind them. Some of these companies are selling their products for over $100 per bottle, which is much too expensive. On average, the best supplements we found are selling between the $40-$50 price range. Often, when products appear cheaper, this is indicative of low quality or a low recommended daily serving, which will not bring the results you are looking for. Be aware. Read the labels.

Q: Which parasite cleanse is the best one to buy?

As each person’s experience of a product is different, it is difficult to say specifically which one is the best. That said, based on several factors, we did like Parastrin by Approved Science. We found that from the 50+ products that we analyzed, Parastrin had the best quality of ingredients, potency and strength, consumer feedback, and customer service.

Of course, it is ultimately your choice. We hope that our research has gone some way in helping you make your choice. If you are looking for a well-researched product that brings effective results, we think that you can’t go far wrong with Parastrin. It is an excellent quality product, with great reviews and is well priced.
