Problem: Article: Avoid all sugars aside from honey and opt for whole foods instead of their refined equivalents. You'll also need to avoid most juices and dairy products. Parasites thrive by absorbing sugars, so any simple carbohydrate you consume will ultimately give the parasite fuel to continue living. Ideally, you should avoid most sources of sugar for at least one to two weeks while you treat the infestation, then for an additional one to two weeks afterward as your body recovers. Some preliminary studies suggest that pumpkin seeds, papaya seeds, and almonds may help prevent and cure parasitic infections within the intestines. Try to consume one or two handfuls of these foods each day for at least two weeks, or for the duration of the infection. If you aren't able to eat these nuts and seeds by themselves, consider adding them to smoothies, yogurt, and other food. For instance, grind down the seeds of one medium papaya and mix the paste with 1 Tbsp (15 ml) of coconut oil and 1 cup (250 ml) coconut milk. Blend it all together with the fruit of the papaya and 1 to 2 Tbsp (15 to 30 ml) of organic honey. Drinking the resulting smoothie for seven consecutive days might be enough to eliminate mild to moderate parasitic infestations. While not every fruit and vegetable can fight off parasites, some varieties may have the potential to do so. Include as many as possible in your diet until you get rid of the parasite completely. Some of the most helpful fruits include pineapple, blackberries, pomegranates, and papayas. You can eat the fruit fresh or drink the juice. If you don't like the taste of these fruits, most can also be taken in supplemental form. Several potentially helpful vegetables include onions, garlic, cabbage, kale, beets, and carrots. If you don't want to alter your diet too dramatically, you can make subtle changes by seasoning more of your food with garlic and onions. Since intestinal parasites dwell within your digestive tract, thoroughly flushing out your system may push the parasite out of your body. Drinking plenty of water and sugar-free fluids should help. Eating more fiber may also help, especially when you have a worm-type parasite. This may not be quite as effective for single-cell parasites, however. Probiotics are beneficial bacteria that keep your digestive tract healthy. Taking probiotics can naturally strengthen your body as it battles an invading parasite. Most yogurt contains the probiotic Lactobacillus acidophilus, and eating one or two servings of yogurt each day can gently restore to bacterial balance in your gut. Alternatively, you can take probiotics in supplemental form. Follow the dosage instructions on the package to determine how much to take and how often. While your body relies on many different nutrients to stay healthy, vitamin C and zinc are especially important for a healthy immune system. Getting an adequate amount of sleep each night will also boost your immune health and allow your body to fight the infection. As a general rule, try to get 90 mg of vitamin C and 20 to 30 mg of zinc each day. You can get both nutrients through food or through health supplements. When fighting any parasitic infection, try boosting the amount of sleep you get each night to eight or nine hours.
Summary: Remove simple carbohydrates from your diet. Eat certain seeds and nuts. Include anti-parasitic fruits and vegetables. Flush out your system. Restore beneficial bacteria with probiotics. Support your immune system.

Problem: Article: In the 80s, rock music was full of variety! Think about your favorite groups and artists and how they looked. Consider if you're interested in dressing like a heavy rocker or a glam metal rocker. Some of the qualities and style elements overlap across genres, but try to pinpoint a band or genre so you can create a convincing rock look. Male heavy rock groups from the decade include AC/DC, Metallica, Iron Maiden, Van Halen, Guns N' Roses, and Def Leppard. Male glam metal or hair metal groups include Motley Crue, Poison, Bon Jovi, Ratt, White Snake, and Twisted Sister. Female rockers include Cyndi Lauper, Madonna, Pat Benatar, Heart, Tina Turner, Stevie Nicks, Joan Jett, and the Eurythmics. Look online for video clips of performances and interviews with artists from the 80s. Take a look at some music magazines as well, if you can find them. Search for candid snapshots and styled shoots featuring your favorite bands as well. Write a list of the specific colors, textures, garments, and accessories they wore so you'll know what you'll need in your outfit. Pull up a variety of photos and determine whether your favorite artists changed up their style frequently, or if they kept a more consistent look with the same types of garments and accessories. Many 80s rockers were active in the preceding and following decades, so make sure you only reference sources from the 80s. This way, you'll really get an understanding of the look of the decade. If your rocker inspiration is known for an iconic outfit or look, try recreating that exact outfit with similar pieces. Alternatively, you could gather inspiration images of a variety of rockers and pick and choose your favorite elements from those outfits to work into yours. Once you know what pieces you need, see what you can use from your own closet first. Then head out to thrift shops and vintage clothing stores to build out the rest of your look. You may need to DIY some pieces, so get out your needle and thread or enlist the help of someone who knows how to create costumes.
Summary: Choose an 80s rock genre or band to inspire your outfit. Research images of 80s rockers in your chosen band or genre. Recreate a specific outfit or create your own unique look.
