Some natural health practitioners say that parasite infections can be treated with a cleanse comprised of herbs and supplements. Very limited research exists on whether any natural ingredients may help treat parasite infections, but some people suggest the following herbal supplements may be beneficial: anise, thyme, rosemary, cumin, marjoram, barberry, berberine, black walnut, clove oil, mint, goldenseal, grapefruit seed extract, propolis, Oregon grape, wormwood. Some animal studies suggest that the following natural ingredients may have anti-parasitic effects: thyme, rosemary, cumin, marjoram, garlic, ginger, tongkat ali, wormwood, berberine, which is found in barberry, propolis, which is made by bees. Supplementing with vitamin A, zinc, and selenium might, therefore, form part of a parasite cleanse. Eating garlic, ginger, and foods high in vitamin A may also help.
Depending on the type of parasite infection you have, some infections may clear up on their own without treatment. Limited research suggests that natural ingredients alone can treat parasitic worms, but ingredients like thyme, rosemary, garlic, ginger, and probiotics may possibly help.

The primary treatments will be medications to kill the specific parasite identified and manage symptoms.
Increased hydration is also recommended, especially If diarrhea is a symptom.
The parasite cleansing systems being promoted on the internet and social media are not medically necessary, can cause alarming side effects and have not been proven to kill parasites.
If you have symptoms of a parasite infection, my advice is to seek professional medical help and not waste your money on home remedies.
Additionally, based on the medical history and physical exam, additional diagnostic tests may be ordered to determine if a parasite infection is present and, if so, what type of parasite is involved.
Diagnostic tests may include one of more of the following: Fecal exam to look for parasites or parasite eggs in the stool, Endoscopic exam of the intestines, Colonoscopy, Blood tests, Imaging exams to detect parasite-related lesions in the organs.
Based on the results of the diagnostic tests, an appropriate treatment plan will be developed.
The supplements have not been evaluated or approved by the FDA for their intended purpose – and may contain ingredients that can interact with other medications and cause more harm than good.
