Scientists have discovered that a high-fat diet allows the immune system to eliminate a parasitic worm which is a major cause of death and illness.
Parasitic worms affect up to a billion people, particularly in developing nations with poor sanitation. One of these parasites known as "whipworm" can cause long lasting infections in the large intestine.
Researchers have discovered that a high-fat diet allows the immune system to eliminate the parasite.
Dr. Evelyn Funjika said, "The cheapest diets are often high in fat and at-risk communities to whipworm are increasingly utilizing these cheap diets.
It has been previously shown that immune responses which expel the parasite rely on white blood cells called T-helper 2 cells, specialized for eliminating gastrointestinal parasites.
The findings demonstrate how a high-fat diet, rather than obesity itself, increases a molecule on T-helper cells called ST2 and this allows an increased T-helper 2 response which expels the parasite from the large intestinal lining.
"We were quite surprised by what we found during this study. High-fat diets are mostly associated with increased pathology during disease. However, in the case of whipworm infection this high fat diet licenses the T-helper cells to make the correct immune response to expel the worm."
Professor Richard Grencis said, "Our studies in mice on a standard diet demonstrate that ST2 is not normally triggered when expelling the parasite, but the high-fat diet boosts the levels of ST2 and hence allows expulsion via an alternative pathway."
Professor David Thornton added, "It was really fascinating that simply altering the diet completely switched the immune response in the gut from one that fails to expel the parasite, to one that brings about all the correct mechanisms to eliminate it."

Guess I am good to go then...
Or take black walnut tincture and cloves
One word: lard.
I guess you eat enough fat and it gets too slippery in there for the worms to hang on.
Does bread and dripping count? Please?
Wow. Good to know that I am parasite free!
To get rid of sewer rats just eat Mexican food.
The instructions that came with my Ivermectin said to “take with a fatty meal”. I guess it all works together.
I wonder if bile plays a role.
I KNEW it!
“The instructions that came with my Ivermectin said to “take with a fatty meal”. I guess it all works together.”
One dose of Ivermectin, with or without a fatty meal, and the dead worms will come out the other end, and totally stink (from what I’ve read).
No need for trying to ‘coax’ them out via diet or other means.

I took it when I have WuFlu in 2021. I didn’t notice that.
But I do recall when we brought three feral kittens in the house they went from the traps, then to the vet, and then the house. Vet gave them some de-wormer and when they did their business for the first couple days, it brought tears to your eyes. OMG!
“I took it when I have WuFlu in 2021. I didn’t notice that.”
Good for the kitties! For yourself, if you don’t have worms, then obviously you won’t be sending them packing on the other end. The people that I know who use Ivermectin also don’t have worm problems - they just don’t want WuFlu.

But you have to wonder if the CCP/Fauci bio-weapon could have critters as a component.
And, since Ivermectin seems to be very effective against some cancers, you have to wonder if cancer actually is a critter.
Inquiring minds want to know ... :)
