Parasite cleansing / deworming started April 25 on my 6 year old boy

I have an extra bottle of Barefoot Herbalist MH’s dewormer and after finishing last month on myself and my 4 year old boy, it was time for my 6 year old to have him dewormed.  He enjoys the sipping… we call the dewormer, sip don’t gulp, as barefoot instructed.

We began deworming April 25, 2008.  This post is my marker so I know when my son does his 30 days of deworming and finishes.

My 3 year old girl wants to be dewormed too.  I told her, “next year when you are 4 years old.”

Dosage for my 6 year old is 1/2 teaspoon dewormer in 1/4 cup of water.  Sip, don’t gulp.  2 times per day.  Once in the morning and once at night.

This boy reports from time to time seeing live worms in his stool.  But I have never seen them.  I reminded him that the next time he sees worms, please call me so I can see them first hand.

Why deworm my kids?  Why not?  Parasites are a prime cause of illnesses.  Once they have attached themselves, you need to kick them out.

As Barefoot says, before giving any herbs to your children, test it on yourself first.
