[0:00](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/bRxM1U6Ofzch/en/brain-parasites-prevention-and-treatment-advice) Brain parasites, how to avoid them and how to get rid of them.

[0:04](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/bRxM1U6Ofzch/en/brain-parasites-prevention-and-treatment-advice?t=4) My name's Robert Love. I'm a neuroscientist.

[0:05](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/bRxM1U6Ofzch/en/brain-parasites-prevention-and-treatment-advice?t=5) I'm here with Dr. Josh Hillman, a medical doctor trained at Harvard, and together we have a clinic here in Florida where we are reversing Alzheimer's in our patients.

[0:13](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/bRxM1U6Ofzch/en/brain-parasites-prevention-and-treatment-advice?t=13) Dr. Josh, you've talked about brain parasites for years, about how these are dangerous to the brain.

[0:17](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/bRxM1U6Ofzch/en/brain-parasites-prevention-and-treatment-advice?t=17) They can increase the risk of Alzheimer's disease.

[0:19](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/bRxM1U6Ofzch/en/brain-parasites-prevention-and-treatment-advice?t=19) So please tell us, number one, how can we avoid brain parasites?

[0:23](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/bRxM1U6Ofzch/en/brain-parasites-prevention-and-treatment-advice?t=23) And then number two, how can we get rid of brain parasites?

[0:26](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/bRxM1U6Ofzch/en/brain-parasites-prevention-and-treatment-advice?t=26) Sure. Brain parasites, very important to avoid them.

[0:30](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/bRxM1U6Ofzch/en/brain-parasites-prevention-and-treatment-advice?t=30) Number one, avoid eating raw fish. They've, they've studied people who eat sushi, raw fish, at least once a week, and the majority, over fifty percent of those people, get parasites.

[0:45](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/bRxM1U6Ofzch/en/brain-parasites-prevention-and-treatment-advice?t=45) So number one, avoid raw fish. Another big source of parasites, it sounds weird, is insect bites, whether it's a mosquito, a tick, it doesn't matter.

[0:55](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/bRxM1U6Ofzch/en/brain-parasites-prevention-and-treatment-advice?t=55) What these insects, when they bite you, they often will inject parasites or other infections into the blood.

[1:03](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/bRxM1U6Ofzch/en/brain-parasites-prevention-and-treatment-advice?t=63) So what I would say is use an insect repellent.

[1:07](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/bRxM1U6Ofzch/en/brain-parasites-prevention-and-treatment-advice?t=67) My favorite ones use citrus es- essential oils, whether it's lemon, lime, uh, bergamot, it doesn't matter.

[1:16](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/bRxM1U6Ofzch/en/brain-parasites-prevention-and-treatment-advice?t=76) And then what's a third cause of brain parasites people don't think about?

[1:19](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/bRxM1U6Ofzch/en/brain-parasites-prevention-and-treatment-advice?t=79) Yeah. Number three is actually cat litter, uh, will aerosolize and, and we even, we tell pregnant, uh, women, you know, "Please do not handle the kitty litter," 'cause we want them to avoid getting parasites or other infections.

[1:35](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/bRxM1U6Ofzch/en/brain-parasites-prevention-and-treatment-advice?t=95) And so if someone does have brain parasites, w- how can they address that?

[1:39](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/bRxM1U6Ofzch/en/brain-parasites-prevention-and-treatment-advice?t=99) How can they get rid of them? Yeah. So the first thing I would say is, "Don't do this on your own."

[1:44](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/bRxM1U6Ofzch/en/brain-parasites-prevention-and-treatment-advice?t=104) Seek a medical expert like myself. And number two, when you find that expert, the first thing I would do is actually, this sounds counterintuitive, not treat the parasite, but to lower your toxin level because unfortunately many of these parasites,

[2:00](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/bRxM1U6Ofzch/en/brain-parasites-prevention-and-treatment-advice?t=120) inside of them will... they'll store heavy metals and other toxins that they'll use as a weapon against other bugs.

[2:07](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/bRxM1U6Ofzch/en/brain-parasites-prevention-and-treatment-advice?t=127) This is important because once you kill the parasite, often it will go off as a bomb and release whatever toxins are inside of it.

[2:17](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/bRxM1U6Ofzch/en/brain-parasites-prevention-and-treatment-advice?t=137) So the first thing I tell people to do is lower your toxin levels with, uh, glutathione is a great place to start.

[2:25](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/bRxM1U6Ofzch/en/brain-parasites-prevention-and-treatment-advice?t=145) Glutathione is a very small peptide that is the master detoxifier, and it's a great antioxidant.
