Ep. 159 We explore the world of parasites with Kim Rogers, aka "The Worm Queen." With 18 years of experience in western medicine, Kim is one of the few experts boldly tackling this often-ignored topic, shedding light on the 95% of people who may unknowingly be living with parasites. We discuss the symptoms, causes, and how to cleanse your body, along with tips on water purification, food safety, and holistic therapies. Kim makes this eye-opening (and slightly terrifying) subject both approachable and empowering, helping you take control of your health with practical advice.
