Hey there,
Welcome to Bug of the Week—your all-access pass to the secret life of bugs. Some live in your garden. Some in your house. And some? They’ve taken up residence in you.
Don’t freak out. You’re in good company. Most of us are walking, talking high-rises for microscopic tenants. Some are friendly. Others… trash the place. This series is about the troublemakers.
Meet Your Uninvited Roommates
They sneak in with food, water, pets, travel—even that “healthy” salad from lunch. Then they settle in, just messing with you enough to feel off, but not enough to send up alarm bells.
The Loud Partiers: Giardia, Cryptosporidium. Show up after bad water or travel. Wreck you quick.
The Sneaky Lifers: Blastocystis, Strongyloides. Quiet, long-term energy thieves.
The Shape-Shifters: Candida, certain protozoa. Constantly evolving to dodge eviction.
Why You Should Care
Low energy. Bloating. Skin flare-ups. Brain fog. Sure, it could be stress or age… or it could be squatters messing with your system.
They’ve had millions of years to perfect their hide-and-seek game. Easy to dismiss. That’s why so many people focus on surface fixes like juice cleanses or probiotics, while the root cause sits untouched.
Eviction, the Right Way
Removing them isn’t about “nuking” your system. Done wrong, you just stir the nest. Done right, it’s a simple, smart process:
Identify: Test, track symptoms, review your history.
Prepare: Support digestion + strengthen detox pathways before killing anything.
Remove: Herbal blends (wormwood, clove, black walnut), targeted meds when needed.
Rebuild: Restore your gut so new bugs can’t move in.
Your body’s like a house. Keep the foundation solid and the doors sealed, and pests won’t stick around.
Next week: we dive into supplements—the ones that actually help evict unwanted bugs, and the ones that just waste your time (and money).
P.S. Just like the right supplement can make a big health difference, the right AI tip can save you hours:
