My now 6 year old daughter had the blastocystis parasite for 3 years. We tried all the natural remedies and went through round after round of Antibiotics and nothing worked. But now she is completely free of this horrible, horrible parasite. And how? We completely eliminated all synthetic chemicals from her diet and left her gut (now in its natural state) to deal with the blasto. It only took one week of additive/ preservative free eating and it was gone! After three whole years - it was that simple for us. We muck up our bodies so much with the stuff we put in them, they have no chance to heal us naturally. Then we hit the synthetic drugs and so the cycle continues. So yes, I agree with everything you've posted, but can't agree with the poster who said synthetic supplements are better than nothing - wrong, wrong, wrong.
