About this listen

If your child keeps catching worms, you’re not alone! In this episode, we dive into all things threadworms, including why kids under 10 are so susceptible to catching them and what you can do to stop the cycle of reinfection. You’ll learn how to spot symptoms and why standard worming medications may not be effective for chronic infections. Plus, we’ll explore dietary recommendations to support gut health and the powerful role of herbs and flower essences.

Hot tip: Maybe listen to this one after your breakfast!

In this episode, we explore:

  • What are threadworms and how are they spread
  • Tips for breaking the chain of infection
  • Common and uncommon signs and symptoms
