Episode 187: Parasites, Hidden Symptoms & Homeopathy with Gitanjali Goel

Episode Description:

In this episode, host Mary is joined by Gitanjali Goel to discuss a topic many find uncomfortable but is surprisingly common: parasites. Gitanjali explains that parasites aren’t just an “overseas” problem; many people live with low-grade infestations for years, manifesting as fatigue, bloating, skin issues, or even anxiety.

The Homeopathic Perspective: Symptoms Over Tests

While conventional medicine relies heavily on stool tests, Gitanjali notes that these often produce false negatives. At Homeopathy247, the focus is on your unique symptoms and “miasmatic” patterns rather than just a positive diagnosis.

Understanding Miasms: Your Biological Blueprint

Gitanjali uses the analogy of a house to explain miasms—inherited and acquired patterns of susceptibility:

• Psoric Miasm (Deficiency): Like a house with thin walls. The body lacks resources (like low stomach acid) to neutralize organisms early. Healing begins with reinforcement, not removal.
• Sycotic Miasm (Excess): Like blocked drains. The body can’t let go, leading to stagnation (sluggish bile, fluid retention).
• Syphilitic Miasm (Breakdown): Like compromised structural beams. Parasites appear late as a marker of long-standing dysregulation.

The Lunar Connection

Parasites are highly responsive to lunar rhythms. During a Full Moon, symptoms like teeth grinding, anal itching, and insomnia often intensify as parasites become more active and migrate.

Key Homeopathic Remedies

Gitanjali highlights common remedies used to restore the body’s balance:

• Cina: Indicated for teeth grinding, irritability, and continuous nose-rubbing in children.
• Teucrium: Think of this when rectal itching is the main complaint, often worse at night or around the full moon.
• Spigelia: Helpful when sharp pains or heart palpitations accompany parasitic activity.
