In this transformative episode of the Light Up Your Life Podcast, we sat down with Brooke Reich—an Integrative Health Practitioner, parasite expert, and a true warrior in the world of root-cause healing. Brooke opens up about her personal health journey, which includes navigating the trauma of six pregnancies in seven years, battling chronic illness, and overcoming emotional, physical, and financial hardship. Her story is one of resilience, determination, and deep healing—one that led her to uncover the often-overlooked world of parasites and the critical role they play in chronic health conditions.
Brooke takes us far beyond symptom management and quick fixes, diving into the why behind persistent fatigue, gut dysfunction, autoimmune issues, hormone imbalance, and more. She sheds light on how parasites—yes, the kind most people don’t even know they have—can be a major underlying cause of chronic illness. You’ll hear the latest research that connects parasitic infections to some of the most serious and misunderstood diseases of our time, including cancer, multiple sclerosis (MS), and diabetes. The science is compelling, and the implications are game-changing.
In this deep and eye-opening conversation, we explore:
The shocking correlation between parasites and chronic diseases like cancer, MS, and diabetes
Why sugar cravings, anxiety, skin issues, and brain fog may actually be symptoms of a parasitic load
The truth about parasite testing—and why many tests fail to detect the problem
How Brooke supports her clients using functional lab testing, ancient healing modalities, and cutting-edge therapies like photobiomodulation
The crucial steps to take before beginning a parasite cleanse, including mitochondrial support and drainage pathway preparation
Why hydration, lymphatic drainage, and cellular energy are foundational to any successful detox
How to use stem cell activation patches to amplify healing and rejuvenation

Herbal vs. pharmaceutical parasite protocols: the pros, cons, and what you need to know
Practical hygiene practices and post-cleanse strategies to prevent reinfection and maintain long-term health
Brooke’s approach is rooted in compassion, education, and empowerment. She believes everyone deserves to feel energized, clear-minded, and in control of their health—and she’s on a mission to make that possible by revealing what’s really going on beneath the surface.
