Summary:  Use an antiparasitic regimen if parasites are suspected.  One of the best single products for this is Eclectic Institute's Black Walnut Wormwood.

At the end of this article is the tapeworm protocol, which contains additional measures since they are harder to fight than most other parasitic infections.  The CAFL contains a warning to use a tapeworm protocol when running frequency sets for tapeworms, so that section is geared toward being used concurrently with a rife device but it contains supplement recommendations which are appropriate even if bioelectronics are not used.

For any supplement, and especially antiparasitics, start off with a small dosage to ensure no adverse effects.  Everyone in the house, including and especially pets, should deparasitize at the same time.  While this is being done, do the Dust Cleanup and practice perfect hygiene. 

The Eclectic product can be used at double recommended dosage the first week (after building up slowly), recommended dosage the second week, and for a week every month at recommended dosage afterward.  If the problem is not relieved, it can be taken longer term, using it three weeks on and one week off until the condition is relieved.

Other excellent choices of widely available commercial antiparasitics are RenewLife Paragone or Nature's Secret Parastroy.  These both stimulate elimination by including a small amount of laxative herbs, which makes them more effective but not appropriate if elimination is already too frequent.  Suma can be used with antiparasitics if elimination is already too frequent since this is an astringent which also helps against parasites and can increase energy levels.

Hulda Clark's antiparasitic regimen is green black walnut tincture, cloves, and wormwood in large doses.  It is probably the most effective, but some people will not go to the trouble of buying the three supplements and taking them all.  The fresh clove capsules that Clark recommends (Kroeger Herbs and Blue Moon make some which are available in health food stores) can also be added to the antiparasitic combinations mentioned above to increase the effects.  She now says that some black walnut capsules can be as effective as the awful-tasting tincture, so these would be a good choice (Eclectic makes freeze dried water-extracted black walnut concentrate capsules.)  The more serious the ailment the more I would consider using her regimen.  

Digestive enzymes like RenewLife ParaZyme, an acidic enzyme which helps against parasites, can be useful for those with low digestive acid production.  If there is digestive tract damage caused by parasites, RenewLife DigestMore contains glutamine and other intestinal healing nutrients as well as enzymes and is non-acidic.  Use it with suma for faster healing action or if there is diarrhea after taking antiparasitics.  Enzymes alone can be very helpful against some parasites.  

The Water Cure can be valuable during deparasitizing to remove debris from the blood, kidneys, and liver so detox is lessened and parasites can continue to be fought aggressively.  To better ensure these organs are clean, see the kidney and liver cleansing regimens.  The Zone Diet is recommended to control blood sugar since high levels stimulate parasites which are in the blood and eating starches and other sugars stimulate ones in the digestive tract.

Tapeworm Protocol

The tapeworm frequency set warning mentioned in the CAFL is given so that the infection is not made worse when rifing these critters. Almost all the segments of the tapeworm contain eggs and if the segments are destroyed without addressing the eggs, which may have at least a slightly different MOR, the problem can be made worse. This is not as much a problem if the infection is contained within the digestive tract but if it is in tissue outside it, it can be a big problem.

If tapeworms are suspected, the first thing I would do is start an antiparasitic tapeworm supplement regimen. This consists of using Eclectic Institute Black Walnut Wormwood capsules along with Kroeger Herb's Rascal and additional clove capsules (Blue Moon or Kroeger brand). Build up slowly on the antiparasitics, to regular dose of the Rascal and cloves and double recommended dosage on the Eclectic Institute Black Walnut.  After a week of double dosage, back down to recommended dosage of the Black Walnut Wormwood.  Eating a tablespoon or more of raw pumpkin seeds each day adds to the effect and is strongly recommended (plus they are a good EFA supplement).

Ensure elimination is sufficient.  Following the Water Cure is a good idea as is eating plenty of non-starchy vegetables. Taking a teaspoon of vitamin C before bed is also a good measure (start with a half gram and build up slowly if not used to taking large doses of C).  

After at least a few days of using the supplements, I would run the tapeworm sets. When they run, note any "hit" frequencies. Run these for an extended period plus scan at least 10Hz on either side of them.  If there are strong hits or detox reaction from the set, use these same frequencies the next day along with scans. Good ranges for scans include 430 - 490, 800 -1000, 2000 - 2600, and 4300 - 4900 (Hz). Again, note any hits and run for an extended period. 

If after using these measures the indications are that there is indeed a tapeworm infection, and after four weeks the problem has gotten worse, I would add Eclectic Institute Black Walnut capsules (the freeze dried concentrate), double the dose of Rascal and cloves, and use at least 400mg of CoQ10 per day.

After the regimen is complete and the problem is under control, I would continue to use CoQ10 (100- 200mg per day), Rascal, and panax ginseng long term while using the Eclectic Institute product one week per month until it is ensured there is no reinfection.  Ginseng and CoQ appear to work by "oxygenating" the blood. Ginseng is not typically used as a treatment, but is probably valuable as a preventative.

There is an historic article on tapeworms in the Parasite section that is interesting to read despite it being over 100 years old:
