Has Anyone Else Tried Humaworm?

I used it too. I didn't see anything startling while on it, but had seen part of a tapeworm and a roundworm just prior when I tried pumpkin seeds and pineapple for three days (sort of a modified fast). I am pretty sure I passed some stuff but it was pretty digested and hard to identify.

I'll probably retry it again in the later summer.

Are you sure it wasn't just an undigested pumpkin seed? Those things go through me whole if I don't chew them extra thoroughly.

I guess Sherry didn't see this. :)

For me, it was OBVIOUS it was a worm and not undigested food as it was longer than anything I ate, even in its broken up state.

The Humaworm does make me feel sluggish. It didn't help that I caught the flu when I was on it, but it definitely makes me feel less energetic than normal.

Of course, it has a lot of detox herbs and I've been on a lot of Lyme medication for over a year, so it could just be stirring up a lot of toxins in me. Both times I have really looked forward to my last day.

It seems I got my order within a week, a week and a half, of ordering.

If you don't get it by next week I would maybe contact the company.

I had to contact them and ask about my order. They got on the ball and sent it immediately after I sent the email. Sounds like they have some issues with their order processing. :\

I got my Humaworm capsules in the mail yesterday. March 29 and took my first two this morning. My hopes are so mixed! Nooo I can't possibly have parasites or worms! Ewwwwwwwwww But then again maybe its very probable. I am in a weird way hoping thats the cause of all my problems.

And how did the meeting with YoLo go? I have gotten so much out of her posts! :D She is wonderful!

Hi Gang

well I've read this thread with great interest. I see where it is helped the big D but what about the Big C?????

I haven't done a cleasne in many years & maybe just maybe that is why at times I eat but five minutes later I want to eat again...anyone else like that? Its not everyday that I feel like that but it happens.

Has anyone used it on young children? I read these threads very fast & today is a migraine day soooo I'm positive I didn't get all of the important stuff...

thanks

blessings

I started this morning, too! I had some stomach upset this afternoon, but some of it may be in my head. :P

Mamaw, I used it with my 11 year old. They have a children's formula. He saw some interesting things, though I didn't look at his results myself.

I have had an insatiable appetite for a couple of years now, I think. I want to eat all the time. Even when I know I can't be hungry!! It's a constant struggle to resist. And my weight is slowly sliding upwards. I remember an old saying about feeding your tapeworm, LOL !!! Maybe thats the cause. It would be good to have found the reason.

I took my first two capsules this am and haven't noticed anything yet. Lets keep in touch and we can compare notes :( It's going to be an interesting journey this month. ;)

After weeks of doing really well and probably 5 days from completing my course of Humaworm, I've had a major relapse. It has to be something I've eaten, I'm sure. I started getting adventurous in my eating again and reintroduced things I had taken out of my diet.

Well, hopefully this goes away quickly!

Hi Jules & Sharon :)

Good luck to us all!

Keep me posted. SharonMarie

Gyah!! Ain't DAT da troof!!

Just took 2nd dose.

I did feel a little dizzy for a time this AM - ~2hrs after taking it.

And right now I feel a little heartburn/indigestion ~20min after taking it.

Haven't eaten anything recently, but there's a slight chance I suppose it's caused by roommate's cooking tho it looks like all the same stuff he always cooks.

Hmmmmm

I didn't feel dizzy but I did get heartburn. I recommend drinking down LOTS of water after you take the pills and whatever you do, don't lay down immediately afterwards. Sit or stand up for 30 minutes otherwise you will have terrible heartburn. At least, that was my reaction.

Thanks Nancy, I'll be sure to do that.

Ended up w/ an all-night headache last night, and am 95% sure it's attributable to the pills.

I haven't had ANY dried herbs in 2.5 yrs because I kind of overdo the anti-candida diet & haven't gotten around to testing any.

Wondering if my side-effects are more related to that aspect than anything else.

(EVERY dried herb has at least SOME microscopic mold, or so they say & I've come to believe)

Oh well ... ..here comes 3rd dose .. . .

I felt bad pretty much the whole time on Humaworm ..... but I felt so much better afterward that it was worth it.

My second round I had to stop 3 1/2 days before the end because we were going to travel. Pretty much as soon as I stopped, I felt better.

I take a lot of other herbs, so I don't think it's the mold in my case. It stirs up a lot of toxins ...... it's very cleansing.

I haven't really had any side effects except the first day. But I'm worried I've ruined everything because I took my dose late yesterday. And this morning too. :( I get so scared when the instructions say that you have to take them at such an exact time. Oh, well, I guess.

I took as more strict at first than I think it really is.

It says 12 hrs is IDEAL, but 8-12 hrs apart is fine too.

So if AM dose is 9am, PM dose can be anywhere betw 5-9pm.

And now I'm realizing that it can also be flipped, measuring the 8-12hrs overnight. (?)

Unless being asleep is a big factor, any daytime dosing that deviates from the full 12hr interval probably makes the overnight interval >12 hrs.

I doubt an hr or two here & there makes much of a difference.

After reading this, I ordered some for my whole family and dog. Between my husband's on-going problems, my son's new health/behavior problems and my frustration with psoriasis and hair that is getting thinner, I figure all 6 of us (other 3 kids too) are going to try it. I hope it works!

I'm on day 3 and the only thing I have noticed is a very nasty tasting belch from them. The reason may be because I have already been taking many of the herbs that are in the capsules. I have no idea what I may be expelling. Like Carla B I don't go digging ;)

Good luck everyone and stick with it.

SharonMarie

PS lonewolf I also suffer with psoriasis and thinning hair. Both are improving after going gluten free.

      Intermittent Fatigue

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      There are thirteen essential vitamins:  eight B vitamins, four fat soluble vitamins, and Vitamin C.  They all work together.   If you are deficient in one, you are probably low in the other dozen.  Celiac Disease affects the absorption of all the vitamins, and the dozen or so essential minerals, as well.  Cobalamine Vitamin B12, needs Folate B9 and Pyridoxine B6 to function properly.  Pyridoxine B6 needs Riboflavin B2.  Vitamin C is needed to interact with B12 as well.  Thiamine B1 and Niacin B3 are also needed to provide the energy for these vitamins to function properly.  If one is also low in Folate and Pyridoxine, B12 Cobalamine is not going to be able to function properly and the body doesn't bother to absorb it.   Vitamin D is safe even in high doses.  Vitamin D3 should be supplemented.  Vitamin D2 is not as well utilized because it's synthetic, not a form the body can utilize easily.  Vitamin D must be activated by Thiamine Vitamin B1.  Insufficient Thiamine B1 will make one feel "dopey".  Thiamine is needed for brain function.  The brain uses as much energy just thinking as your muscles do while running a marathon.   Multivitamins do not contain sufficient amounts of essential vitamins to correct nutritional deficiencies.  Supplementing with ALL eight B vitamins, extra Thiamine (don't use the form thiamine mononitrate because it's not absorbed nor utilized well), Vitamin C and the four fat soluble vitamins will be more beneficial than just supplementing one or two vitamins by themselves. With sufficient amounts of essential vitamins, the immune system gets regulated and becomes less reactive to other things like pollen, molds and animal dander.  Sleep apnea is frequently found in Thiamine insufficiency.  The eight essential B vitamins are water soluble and easily excreted if not needed.  The B vitamins all work together.  Supplement them together.

      Intermittent Fatigue

      By Michelle Amirault-Packard · Posted

      He should definitely have his vitamin D and Vitamin B12 checked.  I have celiac and i always felt tired, sometimes i described it as dopy.My vitamin D is always low at times extremely low which can affect you. But  I also did some research and contacted my doctor to see if she checked my Vitamin B12 and She said she didn’t check my vitamin B-12 because a wasn’t Anemic and the normal protocol is , if you are not Anemic they don’t test for B-12.  She had no problem doing the test for me and it came back super super deficient . So I was given a shot of B12 once a week for 4 weeks and I give myself 1 shot intramuscular once a month now for 18 years. Once your B12 is low it can take a long time to bring it back up and sustain it. I think it took about 6 months to get a decent number and about a year to get it right. I do get my Vitamin D checked but not yearly more like every other year because it is a more expensive test and I tend to always be low. I do take a vitamin D supplement but I would talk to your doctor before taking a supplement to make sure you don’t take too much especially if you are already taking a multivitamin. Because too much D can also have some bad side effects.  Celiacs tend to be able to take a higher dose due to our digestive and malabsorption issues but always talk to your doctor before taking. Other things could be making him feel extremely tired  like new allergies like pollens, animals, molds etc.. sleep apnea is a huge one( cause extreme fatigue) and some medications. Just other things he can have checked! Good luck

      Dr. Reddy’s Sandoz sumatriptan gluten-free?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      I suggest you eliminate dairy from your son's diet next.  Cow's milk protein, Casein, can trigger tTg IgA antibody production, the same as gluten, because casein contains segments of proteins that resemble gluten protein segments.   Mucosal reactivity to cow's milk protein in coeliac disease https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC1810502/ I cannot consume dairy products.  Some people find they can tolerate A2 dairy without a reaction. Corn is another frequently hard to tolerate food because the protein zein in corn also resembles the protein structure of gluten.   Do research in Dr. Derrick Lonsdale and TTFD thiamine.  Taking TTFD really can make a dramatic difference, speaking from personal experience. https://hormonesmatter.com/energy-deficiency-asd/ Keep us posted on your progress!

      Bowel issues

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It sounds like you're doing everything right with your gluten-free diet, yet still experiencing significant discomfort, which must be frustrating. Since your stool sample came back normal but symptoms persist, pushing for further investigation—like a colonoscopy or biopsy—is a reasonable next step. You might also want to discuss the possibility of additional conditions, such as IBS, microscopic colitis, or other inflammatory issues, with your doctor. Tracking your symptoms, diet, and triggers in detail could help identify patterns. Don’t hesitate to advocate for yourself—if your current doctor isn’t addressing your concerns, seeking a second opinion or a referral to a gastroenterologist could be beneficial. You’re right to seek answers, and I hope you find relief soon. Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal.
