Worm Out - Parasite Cleanse - Anti-parasitic, Anti-fungal

I used this regiment with my daughter, who was eight at the time - it was safe and never bothered her stomach, not did she complain about taking it although it has a somewhat stronger taste. Good to have something for this that children can take.

This works great for detoxification and cleansing. Found it to be of great help. Thanks Trilight !

This product is good for all people especialy people with Auto Immune Deceases like mine, I have lupus. Lupus people tend to carry a lot of yeast in their systems which keeps the weight on and reeks havoc with our intestines. It's also good for belly fat, extra pounds, sugar cravings, gas , digestion "be sure to take the Livcare for 10 days after your 10 day worm out cleanse, a slush liver can cause weight gain among other problems". I did the worm out cleanse including garlic 10 days before. I then took the livcare for 10 days. Waited 10 days and did it again. I now take the worm out for a week followed by the livcare for for a week . I take a week off and start again. I take 6 dophilus and 1 garlic everyday. My pain is better without all those toxins, my weight is low which helps the pain, my skin and hair look great and my intestines thank me.

Original Herbal Minerals - Multivitamin - Prenatal Vitamin All Natural Herbal Blend Pregnancy Tod...

I am pregnant with my third baby. I usually feel pretty good when pregnant but at 13 weeks, I was still feeling crummy and run-down, though I had been taking a whole food prenatal from the time I found out I was pregnant. I started taking Herbal Minerals after I did a little research and saw it recommended on-line and felt a difference within a few days. I felt better overall and definitely have more energy. Even now, I can tell if I have forgotten to take my Herbal Minerals for a day or two because I start to feel tired again. Another dose down, and I am back to normal. I am sold; this is a wonderful product!

I was pleasantly surprised to discover that this multivitamin has helped my stomach and bowel movements during this pregnancy -- regular, normal, no problems. In my first pregnancy, I had lots of irritable bowel symptoms. I attributed it to the fact that I was pregnant...turns out the cause was probably my generic WalMart prenatal vitamin! This Trilight Health prenatal is just wonderful.
