If the idea of parasites gives you the creepy-crawlies, you’re not alone, but chances are, you’ve already got a few living in your body right now. In this episode, I’m joined again by Dr. Torrie Thompson, a functional medicine doctor who walks us through how common parasites actually are, the surprising symptoms they can cause, and how we can support our bodies in safely removing them.

We’re talking about everything from food sensitivities and skin rashes to poor sleep and anxiety, and how they might be linked to hidden infections. Dr. Torrie also shares what herbs, binders, and protocols she uses in her own practice, as well as what to avoid if you're not ready to detox yet. If you’re feeling off and haven’t found answers, this might be the missing piece.
