Soon I will be trying ivermectin and fenbendazole. Simply to see if they improve my overall health. I’m 60 yo and my main issues are: a life of being overweight, peripheral neuropathy and skin rashes. Eating super low carb for 4 years keeps rashes and neuropathy very low, and my weight has been descending slowly so I’m approx 15 kg overweight currently. My biggest issue is craving carbs sometimes, even just some legumes, a slice of potato, or a piece of bread. I can get away with a bite or two now and then, but once I do, I want more so then I have to increase will power. I’d just like to have these back once a day. Don’t know if I can or should, but I’ll give these two meds a chance to see if it helps me to tolerate a carbier (made that word up?) diet.

I’ll let you know!
