306: Parasites, Worms + Skin Rashes w/ Robin Foroutan, RD

Get ready for the "squirmies" if talking about worms and parasites (living INSIDE your body) makes you a bit squeamish! Parasites tend to get a bad rep, but in reality, they are a part of life. Most everyone HAS parasites already but doesn't need to do a parasite cleanse. Today's guest is the Queen of Parasites, and she gives insight on when you should consider doing a parasite and worm cleanse for your skin condition.

My guest today is Robin Foroutan, a leading expert in Integrative and Functional Nutrition and holistic health. She firmly believes that the body is able to heal itself given the right conditions, which is why she offers her clients a more natural approach to health and healing. By seeking out root causes and underlying imbalances that cause symptoms, and using an advanced, natural and biological approach to address those root causes, she helps her clients create the conditions that encourages the body to heal itself. She sees clients through her virtual practice, Nutrition by Robin, and is a nutrition consultant, lecturer, and writer.

In this episode:

• What are parasites and what are the different types?
• How are parasites ignored as a root cause of symptoms?
• Can you test for parasites?
• The LONG list of symptoms connected to parasites
• What can go horribly wrong if you do a true parasite purge without an expert

Quotes

"If somebody has a fungal infection that they just can't kick, if that candida just will not quit, you have to think something else bigger is shielding the candida." [09:41]

"There are periods of time that coincide with the moon cycles where parasites and worms are more active. So that's full moon, new moon. So if you are having cyclical symptoms where once or twice a month, you have a really itchy butt, your stomach is bothering you, you get a skin outbreak, or just feel exhausted or cranky or whatever... cyclical symptoms are typically infectious in nature." [10:56]
