I started working with Dr. Susan Monias in 2024, and after reviewing my bloodwork biomarkers, the first thing she recommended was a parasite cleanse.
My initial reaction? Probably the same as yours right now:
I don’t think I need one.
I have no idea where to start.
This sounds a little scary!
But, as with everything in my life, I dove into research and decided to give it a try. In this post, I’m sharing my experience along with the products I used. My first cleanse was in May 2023 using the ParaFy Kit. Now, almost a year later, in February 2024, I’m preparing to start another cleanse on the full moon, which falls on the 12th.

Why start a parasite detox on the full moon?
The full moon isn't just a beautiful sight—it also has a fascinating impact on our bodies and, surprisingly, on parasites. During this lunar phase, serotonin levels naturally rise, which can make parasites more active and easier to target. Their reproductive cycles also tend to peak around this time, making a cleanse more effective in disrupting their life cycle and flushing them out.
Additionally, the full moon affects our circadian rhythm and immune function, potentially making our bodies more susceptible to parasitic activity. By timing a cleanse with this phase, you may enhance your body's ability to eliminate them more effectively. So, if you've ever wondered why so many natural health practitioners recommend starting a parasite cleanse on a full moon—this is why!
Why do a parasite detox in the first place?
Parasites are more common than we realize, often entering our bodies through food, water, or even contact with contaminated surfaces. Everyday things like undercooked meats, unwashed vegetables, or pets can introduce parasites into our system. Once inside, they feed off our nutrients and release toxins, which can contribute to a range of health issues, including chronic fatigue, brain fog, digestive problems, skin issues, bloating, weakened immunity, and even anxiety. I experienced all these symptoms for years before my diagnosis without realizing that parasites could have been a contributing factor. Interestingly, in many parts of the world, regular parasite cleanses or detox protocols are common, with people doing them twice a year as part of their routine health maintenance.
A parasite detox can help eliminate these unwanted invaders, allowing the body to function optimally, absorb nutrients more effectively, boost energy, and restore gut health. If you’ve been feeling “off” and can’t pinpoint why, a parasite cleanse might be worth considering!
How Long is the Detox & What Can You Expect?
The parasite detox typically lasts up to 30 days, or until you finish the tinctures. However, you can stop at any time if you feel the need. The detox involves taking a combination of herbal tinctures and supportive remedies to eliminate parasites, cleanse heavy metals, and support gut and liver health. Each product plays a role in helping your body detox efficiently, and following the instructions ensures you get the best results.
During my first detox, I experienced die-off symptoms within the first two weeks. These included fatigue, anxiety, low mood, and mild constipation—nothing too intense, but enough that I had to be prepared. I used several remedies to help manage these symptoms, which I’ll share below. Because I knew these reactions were normal and a sign that the detox was working, I didn’t let them stop me from completing the process.
After two weeks, all my symptoms disappeared, and I felt better than ever. My mind was sharp, my body felt lighter and more energized, and it was like my whole system had been reset and was finally working the way it should.

Final Thoughts
Doing a parasite cleanse was one of the best things I’ve ever done, and I only wish I had learned about it when I was first diagnosed. I could have regained my health sooner and avoided going through so many different symptoms.
But I also know that everyone’s journey is different, and we all need our own time to get there. We try things when we’re ready, and I completely understand if this feels like too much for you right now. Healing is a process, and there’s no right or wrong timeline—it happens when it’s meant to.
What matters is that we keep learning, evolving, and sharing—helping others find their way too. I’m hoping that by sharing my journey, I can inspire you to take control of your health in whatever way feels right for you. If you ever decide to do a parasite cleanse, know that you’re not alone—I’m here to help, and I’ll be cheering you on every step of the way. 💛
