This is one of the easiest ways to get started on your safe parasite healing purge journey. WHY PUMPKIN SEEDS AFFECT PARASITES Pumpkin seeds contain a bioactive compound called cucurbitacin a natural plant chemical found mostly in the seed’s white membrane and inner kernel. Cucurbitacin works by: Paralyzing parasites’ neuromuscular system It disrupts their ability to move, grip, or anchor to the intestinal walls. Weakening their suction and hooks This makes worms detach more easily so the body can push them out. Interfering with parasite metabolism It stresses and slows their biological processes. Disrupting the gut environment parasites rely on The fiber + fats + phytochemicals create a less hospitable terrain for them. This is why many traditional medicine systems — including Chinese Medicine and Ayurvedic medicine have used pumpkin seeds for centuries as a folk antiparasitic food. WHICH PARASITES PUMPKIN SEEDS WORK ON Pumpkin seeds work best for parasites that physically attach inside the intestines. More effective against: - Tapeworms - Roundworms - Pinworms - Hookworms - Some intestinal flukes - Worms that rely on muscular movement to stay attached ❌ Less effective against: - Parasites that migrate to organs (brain, liver, lungs, tissues) - Protozoa (Giardia, Blastocystis, amoebas) - Parasites shielded by thick biofilm - Deep-tissue parasites Pumpkin seeds excel in weakening, paralyzing, and detaching intestinal worms — but they are not a full cleanse by themselves. RAW VS ROASTED: DOES IT MATTER? Yes, the form you consume affects the strength. RAW pumpkin seeds = strongest parasite effect Heat-sensitive cucurbitacin remains intact. Lightly dried or low-temp roasted = still helpful Some cucurbitacin remains. High-temp roasted / salted = weakest Heat destroys much of the antiparasitic compounds. Bottom line: For parasite-cleansing benefits, raw is best ideally fresh, green inner seeds. PREGNANCY SAFETY - Pumpkin seeds are safe as a food during pregnancy - BUT not safe as a parasite cleanse - No large amounts or medicinal dosing during pregnancy - Stick to normal food quantities only

Vitamin C strengthens your detox pathways Vitamin C is one of the body’s primary antioxidants, meaning it neutralizes free radicals created during detox and parasite die-off. When parasites are weakened or killed, they release: - Ammonia - Acetaldehyde - Mycotoxins - Reactive oxygen species (ROS) These toxins stress the liver, kidneys, lymph, and immune system. Vitamin C helps by: ✔️ Reducing oxidative stress ✔️ Supporting glutathione recycling (your body’s master detox molecule) ✔️ Enhancing liver Phase I & II detoxification ✔️ Protecting your cells while toxins are being mobilized Vitamin C energizes the immune system against parasites Your white blood cells literally store vitamin C to help them function. Vitamin C supports: - Neutrophils → first responders - Macrophages → engulf parasites & debris - Lymphocytes → long-term immune defense When vitamin C is low, these cells slow down meaning parasites thrive. When vitamin C is high, these cells activate faster and more aggressively. Vitamin C helps break down biofilm Parasites, candida, and pathogenic bacteria build biofilm a sticky, protective layer that helps them hide from your immune system. Vitamin C helps by: ✔️ Weakening the extracellular matrix ✔️ Supporting collagen breakdown in hardened tissues ✔️ Increasing nitric oxide (which disrupts microbial colonies) This makes parasites easier to flush out during a purge. Vitamin C improves collagen repair during parasite cleansing Parasites damage: - The gut lining - Connective tissues - Intestinal villi - Mucosal barriers Vitamin C is required to rebuild all of these. Your body cannot repair collagen without enough vitamin C. This is why many people notice: - Better skin - Improved gut lining - Faster post-purge healing - Less joint pain When they increase natural vitamin C. Vitamin C supports the adrenal glands during detox Detoxing and parasite cleansing puts stress on the body. Your adrenals store the highest concentration of vitamin C in the entire body, and they use it to produce cortisol your stress and inflammation regulation hormone.

I’m here because I know I have parasites it’s been too long since my last parasite purge and I have autoimmune issues I believe I can heal if I put a stronger focus on this again. I think doing it with a group will help with accountability.
