Keep track of the lunar cycle each month and observe whether your child’s symptoms, or your own, intensify in the days leading up to and following the full moon. [This is podcast episode #205]. The full moon has long been associated with a range of mysterious phenomena, from sleep disturbances to heightened emotions. But one of the more intriguing aspects is that full moons can increase parasite activity in humans. Is there any truth to this claim, or is it just another lunar myth?  Let’s explore how the moon’s phases, particularly the full moon, might impact the behavior of parasites and what science has to say about it. First Of All, How Do We Get Parasites? Common ways we get parasites are from inhaling them from the air we breathe, in the food we eat, drinking water, swimming or bathing in contaminated water, and through our skin. Lesions in the skin, especially on the feet, allow for easy entrance into the body. Animals carry different parasites that they may pass onto humans. Plus, poor hygiene also plays a big role. Understanding Parasites and Their Behavior Parasites are organisms that live off a host, relying on them for nutrients and shelter. Human parasites include a range of organisms such as protozoa (like Giardia), helminths (such as tapeworms and roundworms), and external parasites like lice. Their lifecycle often depends on factors such as environmental changes, the host’s immune system, and how many have noticed, even the lunar cycle. While parasite infestations can go unnoticed for some time, they can lead to significant health issues, including gastrointestinal problems, fatigue, and weakened immune responses. Understanding how these organisms behave is crucial to preventing and managing infections. Click Here or Click the link below for more details! https://naturallyrecoveringautism.com/205
