Chapter 1: The Conclusion of My Detox Journey
This article serves as the final chapter in my series documenting my whole-body detox experience. Here, I will share the strategies I employed to combat heavy metals and parasites during the last segment of my cleanse.
If you haven’t read the earlier articles detailing my detoxification process, you can find the first one here: [link].
After completing a four-day parasite cleanse (more details below), I transitioned to a heavy metal detox that lasted for an additional four days. Following this, I combined both approaches for a two-week period, although one particular supplement was taken over a span of 40 days, which I will elaborate on later.

Parasite Cleanse
While it may be uncomfortable to consider, parasites can significantly affect our health. Yeast strains like Candida fall into this category, often lurking in our digestive systems.
Parasites can enter our bodies through contaminated food and drink, making anyone susceptible. Individuals with compromised immune systems may be at a higher risk.
Certain foods, herbs, and natural remedies can aid in eliminating these unwelcome guests. Beneficial options include wormwood, cloves, coconut oil, oregano, black walnuts, papaya juice, and pumpkin seeds. Additionally, food-grade diatomaceous earth is effective in eliminating parasites.
Product Recommendation: Harris Diatomaceous Earth (Food Grade)
Throughout this cleansing period, I incorporated many of the aforementioned foods into my diet. I also took the Paratrex supplement, which is recommended for a 40-day course to disrupt the life cycles of parasites.
ParaTrex Caps — Global Healing Center
To further enhance my efforts, I created a blend of essential oils (recipe below) that I applied to my abdomen three times daily.
Recipe for Parasite Essential Oil:
- 5 drops of each:
- Cinnamon bark or Cassia
- Citronella
- Marjoram
- Fennel
- Clove
- Hyssop
- Oregano
- Myrrh
- Sage
- Thyme
Combine these oils in a small glass rollerball jar, then fill the rest with a carrier oil like fractionated coconut, almond, or avocado oil.
Heavy Metal Detox
High exposure to heavy metals—such as lead, aluminum, arsenic, and mercury—can lead to various health issues, including severe diseases and neurological disorders.
I have multiple amalgam fillings in my teeth. Some individuals opt for removal by a holistic dentist trained in safe techniques. I have my fillings extracted as needed when undergoing repairs or crowns, although this is a debated topic, so thorough research is advised.
My history includes significant exposure to various chemicals, as discussed in my earlier posts.
The term "chelation" refers to the process of removing heavy metals from the body using substances that bind to these metals, facilitating their elimination. Some naturopaths suggest IV chelation therapy, which I hope to pursue in the future.
Foods like strawberries and grapefruit, alongside cilantro and chlorella, can assist in this detox. Activated charcoal supplements and organic sulfur also exhibit chelating properties.
During the heavy metal detox phase, I consumed large quantities of organic cilantro and strawberries, as well as activated charcoal, organic sulfur, and chlorella supplements. I also used the following essential oil formula.
Recipe for Heavy Metal Essential Oil:
- 8 drops of each:
- Basil Helichrysum
- Coriander
- Ginger
- Grapefruit
Add these oils to a glass rollerball jar and fill the remaining space with your chosen carrier oil.
My Experience with Whole Body Detoxification
Embarking on this whole-body detox journey required a financial investment in vitamins, essential oils, and organic foods. I also replaced all my personal care products with healthier alternatives and switched from Teflon cookware to ceramic or steel options. While this was not inexpensive, my commitment to this detox was unwavering.
Throughout the initial three weeks, I experienced significant weight loss—more than I had ever anticipated. Although weight loss was not my primary goal, it proved to be a delightful bonus. After completing the cleanse, I found myself just 10 pounds shy of my ideal weight, marking the lowest I had been in 15 years.
I feel revitalized; my skin is clearer and more radiant. Quality sleep has also become a reality for me, which is a notable achievement in itself. Most importantly, my immune system has effectively fought off multiple infections and colds, a stark contrast to my previous experiences.
In the past, I would easily catch a cold or sinus infection from merely entering a room with someone ill. I suffered from persistent sinus infections that resisted multiple rounds of antibiotics and often experienced back-to-back colds.
It has been six years since I undertook this extensive detox, and I now view it as a pivotal moment in my health journey. My immune system has strengthened significantly; I am now in my 60s and feel more vibrant than I did in my 20s and 30s.
