Itchy Skin Parasites are relatively new to our culture. In fact most doctors swear that sufferers of these itchy skin parasites have vivid imagination and instead have a obsession with parasites.
But maybe they are only new to our awareness. There's evidence that they've been around for centuries on a limited basis. Job of the Old Testament might have been the first recorded sufferer with the boils on his skin.
More recently the skin parasites have been given a name. It's know as Morgellon's disease. And for the most part, all itchy skin parasites have been lumped into Morgellons. But that's a mistake
My initial experience with itchy skin parasites happened in the mid 90's before the word, "Morgellon's," came to be. Although I had many of the following symptoms, I didn't have all of them.
The symptoms are:
intense itchy skin
rashes
non healing lesion
hard nodules under the skin
black specs
red spots on the skin
cotton like fuzz balls
fibers growing from the skin
brain fog
chronic fatigue
hair loss
It was assumed that if one had several of those symptoms, Morgellons was the culprit. But the amazing thing is that Morgellons can't be diagnosed--there are no scientific tests to identify the parasite. This is why many doctors believe that it's a figment of the sufferers' imagination.
Once I heard of the term, I believed I had Morgellons. The message boards are full of people whose lives have literally been ruined--financially and socially.
Good thing for me is that I found a relationship between the foods that I ate and the severity of the symptoms. If fact by avoiding certain foods all symptoms literally disappeared. I also found that ORAP, prescribed by my doctor (one of the progressive ones), made the diet, which is a very strict diet, a bit more flexible.
Later in 2004 I learned of other specific parasites which produce many of the symptoms listed above, but not all of them. Specifically there's collembola--spring tails which many specialist argue can't exist on humans--and strongyloides stercoralis (a nematode). While strongyloides stercoralis can be identified and diagnosed via a blood serum test, collembola can not be identified or diagnosed. But neither of these two parasites create fibers growing from the skin whereas Morgellon's produces fibers that are actually florescent under an ultra violet lamp.
I published the diet that I discovered and called it the King DietTM since it was king in dealing with parasites. Since then dozens and dozens of parasites sufferers from all the parasites mentioned in this article have benefited. It alone has made a difference between being a financial disaster and a social outcast for nearly everyone who has used the diet.
For those with strongyloides stercoralis and collembola the diet combined with ORAP has brought sufferers to some sort of normalcy to the point where they can be relatively lax in their diet and function normally.
Morgellon's sufferers, on the other hand, had to stay with the strictest part of the diet to get rid of the intense itching. If you read much about Morgellons, you'll find that many believe that there's evidence that Morgellons rewrites one's genetic code--rewrites the DNA. This is not surprising as there are many free radicals that do exactly that--often creating cancers. But in this case, Morgellons.
In December of 09 we might have witnessed our first real progress against Morgellons with the use of a glutathione accelerator.
Glutathione is a tri peptide that occurs naturally in every cell. It is the most powerful antioxidant you can ever have in your body.
We found that Morgellons sufferers incorporating a specific glutathione accelerator with the diet that I discovered (the King Diet because it's king--nothing better) began experiencing powerful improvements in their physical conditions. Why is this so?
Putting it all together, we know that stress, disease, infections, aging, drugs, pollution, radiation and so on deplete the body's stores of glutathione. With insufficient glutathione Morgellons can easily rewrite the genetic code and run rampant. However, by significantly boosting glutathione we seem to be stopping the reign of Morgellons.
Using this specific glutathione accelerator, which boosts glutathione intra cellularly by 276% within two weeks, those using it along with the diet notice many changes:
hard nodules decrease in size
fewer lesions and less frequently
brain fog associated with the disease goes away
inflammation and pain associated with the disease go away
improved color of skin
spider-like lines under the skin diminish
fatigue disappears
Although boosting glutathione does not replace diet and ORAP in the fight against collembola and strongyloides stercoralis, it does clear up inflammation and associated pain, and brain fog.
For the first time in history we may have finally an approach that can return Morgellon's sufferers to normalcy--the King diet (go ahead and google "king diet," along with boosting glutathione.
