Parasites - Part 3

Did you know that if you have moles on your body, you have a parasitic infection.

There’s a common misconception floating around the internet that moles ARE a fungus, but that’s just not true. The truth is much more interesting!

Fungi is classified as a micro-organism, and it falls into the parasitic category because it relies on a host for survival, feeding off organic matter while often compromising the health of the host in the process. Unlike bacteria, which can be symbiotic or even beneficial, many fungi, especially pathogenic ones like Candida albicans, invade tissues, hijack nutrients, and suppress immune function to ensure their own proliferation.

Parasitic fungi:

• Extract nutrients from the body leading to deficiencies and fatigue.
• Weaken the immune system making you prone to chronic infections.
• Manipulate sugar metabolism causing cravings and blood sugar instability.
• Release toxic byproducts which congest the lymphatic system and liver.

In essence, fungi behave just like parasites, stealing resources, spreading through the body, and creating long-term dysfunction unless properly addressed.

Here’s the important part. Fungal overgrowth can cause moles to form, and darken!

Let me explain…

A scientific study (PMID: 24934806) revealed that melanocytes, which are your pigment-producing skin cells, actually react to fungi. Specifically, when exposed to Candida albicans (a fungal pathogen), melanocytes go into overdrive, increasing melanin production as an immune response. This means that chronic fungal overgrowth can lead to mole formation, mole darkening, and excess pigmentation in certain areas of the skin.

What Does This Mean for You?

If you have new or changing moles, or if they seem to increase when your health is off, this could be a sign of internal fungal overgrowth.

Many people notice more moles forming when:

• Their immune system is struggling
• They have gut dysbiosis (Candida overgrowth)
• They eat too many fermentable sugars
• Their lymphatic system is sluggish
• Their adrenal glands are weak (causing poor sugar metabolism)

The study showed that melanocytes produce more melanin when exposed to the hyphal form of Candida albicans. This is important because C. albicans can exist in two forms:

1. Yeast form (a harmless, single-celled state)
2. Hyphal form (a more aggressive, invasive fungal state)

The hyphal form triggers a much stronger immune response, which means if your body is dealing with a chronic Candida infection, your melanocytes could be overreacting, leading to mole formation and darkening.

How Does Fungal Overgrowth Happen?

Fungal overgrowth is not just about diet, it’s also about your body’s ability to filter out waste and keep the terrain clean. Two major players are:

• Lymph Stagnation – If your lymphatic system is sluggish, fungal toxins build up in your tissues instead of being flushed out.
• Adrenal Weakness & Sugar Fermentation – If your adrenal glands are weak, you’ll struggle to regulate blood sugar properly. This leads to fermentation of sugars, which feeds fungal overgrowth and parasites.

And here’s the real kicker… If you have fungal overgrowth, you almost certainly have parasites too. Why? Because an imbalanced internal environment creates the perfect breeding ground for parasites to thrive, feeding off the same waste, toxins, and sugars that fuel fungal overgrowth. Where there’s chronic candida, there’s often an entire ecosystem of parasites taking advantage of the weakened terrain!

What’s the Solution?

To truly clear fungal overgrowth, you need a long-term protocol that tackles:

1. Fungal & Parasite Cleansing
2. Lymphatic Drainage & Detox
3. Adrenal & Blood Sugar Support

Step 1: Kill the Fungal Parasites

I highly recommend Exodus, my certified organic anti-parasite formula, for at least 6 months at the standard dosage to combat chronic fungal overgrowth. The combination of Black Walnut, Hyssop, Papaya, Slippery Elm, and other powerful botanicals help kill off fungi, parasites, and candida specifically while gently supporting elimination.

While detoxing the bowels, it’s essential to target the root of the issue, which is why incorporating my colon cleansing formula is a wise choice. It works to deeply cleanse the inner terrain, ensuring waste, toxins, and pathogens are effectively flushed out for a more complete detox. Use it for at least 3 months consistently.

Step 2: Strengthen the Adrenals & Sugar Metabolism

Pair Exodus with my Adrenal Botanical Formula for 6 months to improve:

• Blood sugar metabolism so you stop feeding the fungi.
• Energy production so your body can fight off infections.
• Lymphatic movement so toxins don’t sit in your tissues.

Step 3: Follow an Anti-Fungal Diet

For best results, stick to a diet that starves the fungi and strengthens your body.

Avoid: Refined sugar, wheat, dairy, white potatoes, processed foods, alcohol, and fermented foods.

Complex carbohydrates and starches are the main culprits that produce Candida, because of sugar fermentation. Your only source of carbohydrates while healing should be fresh fruits which are simple sugars and enter our cells directly through diffusion, and non-starchy vegetables.

Eat more: Low-glycemic fruits, leafy greens, cruciferous veggies, healthy fats (avocado, coconut, olive oil), and anti-fungal herbs like garlic and oregano!

How Do You Know This Is Working?

Many people on this protocol report:

• Moles shrinking or fading
• Skin clearing up
• More energy & better digestion
• Less sugar cravings
• Fewer fungal infections like toenail fungus, dandruff, or yeast infections!

Key Takeaway

Moles are not a fungus, but fungal overgrowth can trigger mole formation and darkening. If you have a lot of moles, skin tags, or pigmentation issues, it could be a sign of internal fungal and parasitic load. The best approach is to cleanse your body, strengthen your adrenals, and stop feeding the fungi.
