Herx Reactions during DETOXING

Herxheimer or Herx reactions are detoxification reactions which can last days to a few weeks.

For some people this is a reaction when their body starts to release toxins, proteins and oxidising agents .  This may result in our bodies releasing inflammatory cytokines. It is not uncommon to have flu like symptoms, including headaches, joint and muscular aches, sore throat, general tiredness, sweating, chills, nausea. in this die off of bad bacterium and release of stored up matter and chemicals. All of our the bodies will react differently dependant on the lives we have led. Keep this in mind when you are cutting out certain dietary foods, drinks and generally making better lifestyle changes. Our bodies store toxins in tissues, liver , gall bladders and kidneys if released really quickly a Herx reaction may happen.

To help this reaction have daily Epsom salt baths, lots of filtered water, herbal teas and lots of breathing exercises. This will aid quick recovery and easier release of these built up toxins and you will feel fantastic after this recovery. Remember you will come back a stronger , cleaner body so keep going!

So this summer ,I went to the holistic fair in Dundee and met Marek from Biorezonans Zycia, he specialises in bio resonance frequency technology. My background and fascination is sciences and I know everything has a frequency. Marek is ex pharmaceutical industry now Holistic Practitioner, he runs a low current through the body which picks up blockages, vitamin /mineral deficiencies and foreign bodies such as Parasites. After a question session I told him I have no problems except sleeping and night sweats ,and added, it would be my age and menopause. I also held back from telling him that I also thought I had swallowed something whilst wild swimming ! Marek was very impressed, I was in fantastic health. there was a disc on my back out a little but he also discovered a stomach and thyroid parasite . He asked if I eat raw river fish!!!! That's when I told him, about wild swimming. we discussed how I am more awake during the night more at full moon , again parasites will do this! Although I have done 3 parasite cleanses over the past 2 years and felt amazing. The symptoms return. I have not followed it long enough . Marek has put me on a herbal protocol do rid the parasites and I am following the fibre fuelled recipes. I suspect these parasites have been keeping me up and giving me menopause type symptoms. My biological age was 7 years younger than I am at present , and after the 12 weeks I shall be re tested to see how much younger I am again!!!!! Much less painful or expensive than fat jabs or surgery folks. Be wise. Fuel your body instead of starving it! This BLOG will continue to be updated to show you my healing journey.
