Yes, turpentine was an old time medicinal remedy. My grandfather used to use it. In fact, Swan, an OTC medicine company used to sell it in small bottles in drug stores.

While kimchi is not a guaranteed parasite killer, the probiotics it contains can support a healthy gut microbiome, which in turn can help the body fight off and expel parasites. Kimchi’s fermentation process can also inhibit some parasite growth.
Here’s a more detailed explanation:

Probiotics and Gut Health:

Kimchi is a fermented food rich in probiotics, which are beneficial bacteria.

These probiotics help maintain a healthy balance of bacteria in the gut, making it less hospitable for harmful parasites.

A healthy gut microbiome can enhance the body’s natural defense mechanisms against parasites.

Kimchi’s Role in Parasite Control:

Studies have shown that certain chemicals in kimchi can have ovicidal (killing eggs) and larvicidal (killing larvae) effects on some parasites.
However, these effects are often linked to specific concentrations of chemicals like sodium nitrite, not necessarily the overall kimchi itself.
The fermentation process in kimchi can also inhibit parasite growth, but the extent of this effect may vary.

Important Considerations:

It’s crucial to note that kimchi is not a substitute for proper medical treatment of parasitic infections.
If you suspect a parasitic infection, it’s essential to consult a healthcare professional for diagnosis and treatment.
While kimchi can be a beneficial addition to a healthy diet, it’s not a guaranteed cure for parasites.
In conclusion: Kimchi’s probiotic content and fermentation process can contribute to a healthy gut environment that supports the body’s natural defenses against parasites, but it’s not a primary treatment for parasitic infections according to multiple sources.

Some of that went over my head, but if they can make progress for chronic pain patients, wow!

Also, wondering if ivermectin would kill these critters..

Horse paste doesn’t work. You have to use Praziquantel.

The old timers used to go on a week long pineapple diet to get rid of parasites.

I am so glad to be living now.

Horse paste doesn’t work. You have to use Praziquantel.

Yet somehow the vet still prescribes it, so it's gotta be working for something!

[AndyJackson]

That logic doesn’t fly. Look at all the billions spent on the COVID not a vax. Just yesterday my wife was reminded her vax boosters are not up to date.

It works for many things but it is not a cure all.

In this case they have another drug called biltricide. That works for this.

Pine Bark capsules.

Cloves too.
