worms and amoebic infestations  
Parasites that live in the intestines are becoming more prevalent, owing to  
the poor health of factory-produced meats. They are opportunistic  
creatures and thrive in our modern-day immunally challenged bodies,  
which have been bombarded with antibiotics and drugs of all kinds.  
Parasitic threadworm is, and always has been, very common; probably one  
in f ve children will have it at some time, but adults also get infestations.  
More and more children are becoming infested with parasites,  
particularly after multiple vaccinations because of their overwhelming  
impact on the immune system. Travel can also lay one open to all kinds of  
unusual parasites, and parasitic diarrhea is a common occurrence.
