Ivermectin – wonder drug or ?

This is the longest it has taken me to post any article. For many reasons it has been in my drafts for over 3 years. Time to get it out there!

Part 1- for Covid

Since 2020 many clients have asked me about using Ivermectin for COVID, flu, parasites, and since about 2024,  cancer. I have been reluctant to endorse it whole hardheartedly for a variety of reasons. I believe people should have the right to choose what they do with their own bodies, so I have helped some people procure it when they want it, but I always offer natural options over pharmaceuticals.

The following  videos from years ago were 2 that I shared with clients as resonate with my 40 plus years of teaching health naturally. This is  why I continue to use HRP-C (CA)and VS-C (US) for any flu, cold, so-called virus, all attempts by our body to bring us back into balance.

Dr. Sam Bailey: clear, concise and understands scientific research:

Dr. Tom Cowan: I find him to be one of the most trustworthy, clear thinking doctors.  Some interesting facts here.  You can skip to 2:00 it’s on ivermectin.  You’ll appreciate.

 His summary:

“Ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine stimulate sympathetic nervous system response , which has a prednisone effect – temporary feeling better, but stopping the natural healing process.”

 Ask: who, how, when did they demonstrate that ivermectin is an anti-viral agent? Both excellent videos show how there was NO viable, provable, repeatable research ever done! The final absurdity is that their “scientific” tests are based on a PCR test so faulty, that in Tanzania, it showed positive results for Covid 19 on a  goat, a quail and a papaya, all asymptomatic.
Ivermectin versus Wormwood (Artemisia)
Many people associate Ivermectin with Wormwood (Artemisia annua), as they have shared anti-parasitic Roots .
  • Ivermectin: A prescription medication used to kill parasites such as river blindness and intestinal worms.
  • Wormwood: An herbal supplement (Artemisia absinthium) historically used in traditional medicine for intestinal worms
However, there is a huge difference. This is how the drug Ivermectin is made:

Microbial Fermentation: Scientists engineer baker’s yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) to express genes that replicate the plant’s metabolic pathway. The yeast is fed sugars in large fermentation tanks, converting them into artemisinic acid.
then
Chemical Conversion: This plant-derived or yeast-derived precursor is then put through a chemical process (often involving photo-oxidation) to easily transform it into artemisinin.
then
From there, pharmaceutical companies process the raw artemisinin into derivatives (like artesunate or artemether)

Who Do You Trust?

All this to “replicate the plant’s metabolic pathway”? Why not just use the plant? Or buy from a reputable herbal expert? One major difference is that the drug version is from Big Pharma, which I do not trust – do you? The plant version is from nature – that wins heads up for me.

In Canada, Adverse Drug Reactions (ADRs) from pharmaceuticals cause an estimated 10,000 to 22,000 deaths annually and result in over 200,000 hospitalizations. By contrast, proven deaths directly caused by licensed Natural Health Products (NHPs) are extremely rare, typically hovering near zero or limited to isolated case reports of severe contamination or liver toxicity.

Recipe to Make Homemade “Ivermectin” 
• 1 tsp dried sweet wormwood leaves
• 1 cup of boiling water and steep the tea for 10 minutes
You can sweeten it with raw honey to taste after it has cooled down a bit, as wormwood is a 3rd degree bitter. You can drink 2 cups of this warm tea daily, one in the morning before breakfast and the other one in the evening, before dinner.
Making or buying a tincture is another option, be wise with dosages.

I do not recommend taking this on a daily basis.

In addition to Ivermectin having been heavily promoted as the alternative to the toxic covid mRNA injection, it is now heavily promoted for cancer treatment. This is especially from MDs who have gone “natural”, but are still steeped in the isolationist versus wholistic theory of healing.

Stay tuned for Part 2, Ivermectin for Cancer,  hopefully within the near future.

Spring Cleansing for improved health!

Spring has sprung and we hope that some of you are feeling it. Flowers coming up, rivers running high, all the signs of nature are upon us. More differences obviously for those of us more northerly, but even in southerly climes, the differences can be  noticed when you take the time to look, smell or feel.

The beauty of spring is the time for renewal and new growth. For our bodies, it is also one of the best times to clean out accumulated toxins from the winter, which for many is a time of less activity and heavier eating.

Just as your car needs regular oil changes, your body needs regular cleansing.  The liver is a major detoxifying organ in the body, as well as being responsible for enzyme production, energy levels, glucose storage and release, hormonal balance, emotional states and hundreds of other functions.

Clean intestines facilitate proper nutrient absorption and waste elimination. Time proven tradition has shown that spring  cleansing improves digestion and utilization of nutrients, increases energy and strengthens the immune system. Spring cleansing helps ensure better health in the upcoming season, just as does fall cleansing prepare for the next change of season.

Cleansing can be as simple as cleaning up your diet, and undertaking a raw foods feast, or as complicated as fasting and doing enemas. The addition of herbs that have been  traditionally used for cleansing greatly makes any cleanse more effective. Some of the cleanses we have worked with for years are combinations of herbs which are designed to offer whole body cleansing, including liver, kidneys, colon, lymphatic, blood and cellular level.

The packs make it easy for anyone to do, without having to take time off or starve. A few that we continue to use are listed below. If you would like more information on any of these, or how to get them, no matter what part of the world you live in, please contact our office: takethenaturalpath@gmail.com.

You may be surprised at how reasonably priced they are, and as they come from a company that has been around since 1972, their quality is by design, not by accident, and is a given.

Tiao He PAK (CA)  and  Tiao He Cleanse (US) : a 10 – 15 day cleanse that nutritionally benefits the liver, bowels, kidneys and cleanses blood at the cellular level. Contains 3 formulas and 3 single herbs.

DETOX BASICS  CA & US: a 30 day cleanse which includes Berberin for balancing glucose metabolism., Milk Thistle for liver & enhanced glutathione production, Turmeric, probiotics and more.

Dieter’s Cleanse (US only) : a 14 day program that both builds and cleanses in the proper ratio of two to one. Because it contains many anti oxidants and minerals, it can be used longer term for weight loss. Enhances digestive and intestinal  function; balances glands, weight-metabolism and blood sugar.

Parasite Cleansing is also recommended 1- 2x/s per year. NO matter where you live, chances are about 95% that you have parasites. Herbs such as Wormwood, (Artemisia), Black Walnut, Paw Paw are available in several products and Paks.

LBS II: A lower bowel formula that is beneficial for ongoing building and cleansing of bowel tone and function..  The longer you use it, the less you need it – proof that it works! It is one combination in both of the above packages, but as so many people need this on an ongoing basis, it is also available as a stand-alone formula.

If you feel  weak or depleted, your are wiser to build your body a month or more before cleansing. An excellent herbal aid to do this is :

Energy-V : energy booster to increase overall well being, stamina and energy. Includes adaptogenic herbs which help the body adapt to stress.   Contains bee pollen, gingko, kelp, licorice, siberian ginseng, yellow dock, barley grass, rosehips, schizandra and capsicum.

Good health to you – now go out and find yourself an unsprayed patch of nettles or dandelion greens to eat while cleansing!
