Restores Digestive Balance

An herbal cleanse provides a reset for the gut, supporting immunity and helping to reduce bacteria that cause distress. Ginger root also supports healthy bacteria in the gut, and is renowned for its ability to ease digestive discomfort.

Intestinal parasites are much more common than you think. The World Health Organization estimates 2 billion people worldwide are infected. In the United States, the Centers for Disease Control estimates 60 million people have some form of parasites.

How do we pick up parasites?

You might think of parasites as a third-world problem, but they are increasingly common in the United States and other developed countries. Simple everyday activities can expose you to parasites:

  • Drinking contaminated water
  • Consuming undercooked meat
  • Eating sushi, ceviche, or undercooked fish
  • Swimming in lakes or rivers
  • Having close contact with pets
  • Eating food handled by someone with parasites
  • Being around farm animals
  • Not washing hands after using the bathroom
  • Handling soil (such as when gardening)

Children are more vulnerable to picking up parasites given their developing immune systems and less than stellar handwashing.

People over 50 are also at higher risk due to having lower levels of stomach acid which is the body’s first line of defense against parasites.

9 Common Signs of Parasites

Because parasites can cause a range of effects, they are often overlooked as the reason someone is experiencing symptoms. Additionally, testing for parasites is often inaccurate. Here are some of the most common signs you may have intestinal parasites.

Illustration of Digestive Problems

1. Digestive Problems

Since parasites take root in your digestive tract, they can wreak havoc there. Unexplained constipation, diarrhea, gas, or bloating can all be signs of a digestive system under attack.

2. Fatigue or Exhaustion

Parasites are called “energy vampires” for how they drain you of energy. This can happen due to parasites consuming nutrients or how they can trigger the release of toxins.

3. Itchiness

Unexplained itchy skin, hives, or other skin irritation can be a sign of parasites. That’s because intestinal parasites can stimulate immune antibodies, causing a reaction.

4. Teeth Grinding

Parasites can trigger the release of toxins which interact with neurotransmitters in the body, leading to mood swings, and teeth grinding at night.

5. Feeling Bloated

Some intestinal parasites can make you feel bloated, thanks to a buildup of gas in the intestinal tract. This can result in an uncomfortable full feeling.

6. Difficulty Sleeping

Parasites are also associated with difficulty falling asleep or having sleep disturbances at night. That may be due to parasites being more active at nighttime.

Illustration of Nutrient Deficiency

7. Nutrient Deficiencies

Since parasites survive by feeding on their hosts this can lead to nutrient deficiencies, including a lack of iron due to parasites consuming blood.

8. Muscle or Joint Discomfort

Trichinosis is a type of roundworm that lives in the intestine. The adults produce larvae that travel throughout the body, living in muscle tissue and causing discomfort.

9. Constant Hunger

Tapeworms are a type of parasite that attach to the intestine and feed off the nutrients being digested. This can lead to a constant feeling of hunger, even after eating.

Powerful Plants for an Herbal Cleanse

Nature provides a range of protective plants to help our gut defenses. See which plants are considered most beneficial for a gut cleanse, all of which are found in Para-Shield.

Image of cloves

Clove Bud

An aromatic spice, clove contains a compound called eugenol, which research shows is highly effective at combatting microorganisms by disrupting their cellular function. Clove also supports overall digestive health, and is also shown to support healthy blood sugar.

Image of ginger root

Ginger Root

Known for its punch of flavor, ginger has a long list of health benefits. A powerful antioxidant, ginger soothes digestion, and promotes a healthy balance of bacteria in the microbiome. Ginger also helps to produce butyrate in the gut, which supports digestive health.

Image of walnut hull

Black Walnut Hull

Known for centuries for its powerful cleansing properties, the hulls of black walnut contain compounds including juglone and tannins. Juglone especially is known to help eliminate unwanted microorganisms by interfering with their metabolic processes.

Image of barberry root

Barberry Root

Barberry contains berberine which also supports healthy blood sugar. Berberine may interfere with microorganisms in the gut. It also supports healthy digestion, with research showing it helps to balance bacteria in the microbiome, supporting a healthy gut lining.

Image of wormwood leaf

Wormwood & Sweet Wormwood Leaf

Like its name suggests, wormwood is an herb that has been used for centuries to help protect against gut invaders and support gut health. Sweet wormwood also has an active ingredient called artemisinin which research shows is highly effective against unwanted microorganisms.

Image of Yuzu Fruit

Yuzu Essential Oil

A citrus fruit native to East Asia, yuzu has a flavor of lemon and orange, and is a source of antioxidants. Yuzu also contains compounds including limonene and citric acid which help to stimulate the production of digestive enzymes, supporting overall digestive health.

Para-Shield’s exclusive herbal blend provides a natural way to support gut defenses, enhance your gut detox, and support digestive balance. And with a flavor of yuzu, clove, and ginger, the drops are easy to take.

I am in LOVE with this cleanse. Not only is it effective but it does not taste bitter like other cleanses on the market. It is much easier to give to my kids. Cleansing unwanted organisms is one of the top ways I support the health and well-being of myself and entire family!“

“I’ll never forget coming home from a mission trip to El Salvador. It was an incredible experience, but a few weeks later, something felt… off. I had picked up something over there and the effects were lingering—digestive discomfort, fatigue, and just not feeling like myself. Within days of starting Para-Shield, I could feel my body responding. My digestion improved significantly, and that lingering heaviness and discomfort started to fade. Over the next couple of weeks, my energy levels returned, and I felt stronger and more balanced than I had in months.

Using Para-Shield with my family has been such an amazing experience. The taste is so mild my five-year-old takes it without a problem. I can't believe what came out of us! My daughter has less meltdowns and no longer grinds her teeth at night. My husband and I have felt a significant improvement in our ability to focus and are feeling more energized than before. So grateful for a product we can trust that is clean and supports our gut health!“

Para-Shield stands above other herbal cleanses out there. Most cleanses have standard herbs but the addition of the yuzu and barberry in Para-Shield gives added support for the gut and really makes this an exceptional product. And unlike other cleanses I have tried, Para-Shield has almost a citrusy aftertaste, which is much better!“

Is Para-Shield ok to take during pregnancy or breastfeeding?

Para-Shield is not intended for pregnant women due to the cleansing herbs. As with every supplement, each person should consult with their healthcare professional.

Can I take Para-Shield with other Touchstone Essentials products?

Of course! Para Shield is a great addition to your daily Touchstone Essentials regimen, including Pure Body, Pure Body Extra, and Fulvic Minerals+. The combining effects of these products are beneficial to supporting optimal detox, gut balance, and overall wellness.

Are there any side effects from Para-Shield?

While the supplement has been reported to have no known side effects, individual responses may vary, especially as it relates to digestive health. In some cases, as unwanted microorganisms are expelled, they can cause “die-off” symptoms as they release endotoxins in the body, triggering a temporary reaction.

 

These reactions can include fatigue, headaches, chills, digestive upset, and nausea. If this happens, it’s an indication to go more slowly. Reduce or stop your intake, and gradually reintroduce the herbal cleanse. Of course, if you do not improve, it is always advisable to consult with a healthcare professional regarding your care.

 

As with any dietary supplement, if someone has questions regarding its use and their unique health needs, they should check with their medical professional first.

Does Para-Shield contain nuts?

Yes, since Para-Shield contains black walnut hull, it does carry an allergen warning for those who are allergic to tree nuts.

Can pets use Para-Shield?

Para-Shield is for use in people only. Animals have unique needs and may not be able to consume many of the herbs that humans can. If your pet needs care regarding unwanted microorganisms, please check with your vet.
