There are some general dietary considerations that we recommend during or after a parasitic infection: Sugar and refined carbohydrates: Parasites thrive on sugars, so reducing your intake of refined sugars and carbohydrates may help create a less favourable environment for them. We suggest eliminating starch and sugar. Dairy: Some individuals with parasitic infections may experience lactose intolerance or sensitivity, so limiting or avoiding dairy products is often a good idea. Processed and high-fat foods: Highly processed foods and those high in unhealthy fats may contribute to inflammation and gastrointestinal distress. A diet focused on whole, nutrient-dense foods is therefore generally recommended. Raw or undercooked meat and seafood: Cooking meat and seafood thoroughly helps to kill parasites that may be present. Avoid consuming raw or undercooked animal products. Contaminated water and food: Be cautious of consuming water or food from potentially contaminated sources, especially in regions where parasitic infections are more common. Alcohol and caffeine: These substances can irritate the digestive system, so it may be beneficial to limit alcohol and caffeine intake during a parasitic infection.
