Verm'sil and plants: the guide to natural deworming for the family
By Marie, dietitian and advisor specializing in food supplements at Pleine Forme
15 years of experience in natural solutions and digestive well-being
You wake up tired for no apparent reason. Your child complains of nighttime itching around the anus. Your stomach is constantly bloated, and you have that persistent dry cough that won't go away. You have consulted a doctor, had tests done... but everything seems "normal." Yet, these symptoms are making your life miserable.
What if it were intestinal parasites? A taboo, awkward subject that no one talks about. Yet, millions of families in France are affected without knowing it. Pinworms in children in daycare, tapeworms after a trip, parasites transmitted by our pets...
In 15 years at Pleine Forme, I have supported hundreds of families facing this silent problem. The good news? There are effective, gentle natural solutions for the whole family, without the harsh side effects of chemical dewormers. Vermsil and deworming plants can transform your digestive comfort in a few weeks.
In this guide, I will reveal how to identify, treat, and prevent intestinal parasites with a complete natural approach: herbal dewormers, intestinal detox, and adapted lifestyle habits.
🔍 Is your family affected? Quick self-assessment
Check the symptoms present in you or your loved ones:
Digestive symptoms:
- Persistent bloating, swollen stomach
- Unexplained constipation or diarrhea
- Abdominal pain, cramps
General symptoms:
- Chronic fatigue despite getting enough sleep
- Anal or nasal itching (especially at night)
- Persistent dry cough without infection
Specific symptoms in children:
- Restless sleep, nighttime teeth grinding
- Loss of appetite or sugar cravings
- Irritability, unusual nervousness
Risk factors:
- Regular contact with pets
- Children in daycare, school (group settings)
- Recent travel to at-risk countries
If you checked 3 or more symptoms + 1 risk factor, it is likely that intestinal parasites are the cause. This guide will help you.
Natural dewormer for the whole family: complete guide to Vermsil, plants, and intestinal detox
Are you feeling unexplained fatigue, persistent bloating, or nighttime itching? These symptoms, often discreet and sometimes taboo, can unfortunately indicate the presence of intestinal parasites. Do not worry, you are not alone in facing this situation.
The hidden reality of intestinal parasites
The numbers nobody tells you:
- 30 to 50% of school-age children have had pinworms
- Intestinal parasites affect all social classes
- Impeccable hygiene does NOT guarantee total protection
- Pets are frequent carriers
Many families are faced with these inconveniences, which can affect the quality of daily life. As a specialized dietitian at Pleine Forme, I regularly meet people seeking gentle and effective solutions to regain digestive comfort.
The natural approach: why it works
My experience has shown me the importance of a natural and comprehensive approach to intestinal hygiene for the whole family. This article is designed as a complete guide to help you:
✅ Understand intestinal parasites (types, life cycle, symptoms)
✅ Treat with natural methods (Vermsil, deworming plants)
✅ Prevent reinfestation (intestinal detox, lifestyle habits)
✅ Protect the whole family (children from 1 year old, adults, animals)
Together, we will explore the benefits of natural dewormers, discover the most effective plants, and learn how to integrate an intestinal detox into your routine. My goal is to provide you with clear, scientifically grounded information and practical advice so that you can make informed choices for your family's health.
Why opt for a natural dewormer for the family?
The idea of using a natural dewormer for the whole family is gaining popularity, and not without reason.
What exactly is a dewormer?
A dewormer is a product designed to eliminate or limit the presence of intestinal parasites in the body, such as:
Pinworms: Small white worms (3-10mm), very common in children, cause nighttime anal itching
Ascaris (roundworms): Round worms (15-35cm), contamination via contaminated water/food
Tapeworm: Flat worm that can reach several meters in length, contamination via undercooked meat
Lamblia (giardia): Microscopic parasites, cause diarrhea and bloating
Chemical dewormer vs. natural dewormer
| Criteria | Chemical dewormer | Natural dewormer |
|---|---|---|
| Action | Brutally kills parasites | Creates a hostile environment, gentle expulsion |
| Side effects | Common (nausea, abdominal pain) | Rare, mild |
| Microbiota impact | Can disrupt it | Supports and rebalances it |
| Preventive use | Not recommended | Possible regularly |
| Tolerance for children | Variable according to age | Good from 1 year old |
| Approach | Symptomatic | Holistic (the "terrain") |
The 5 advantages of a natural approach
1. Gentle on the body
Natural solutions are generally better tolerated, reducing the risk of harsh side effects. Unlike chemical dewormers that "bombard" the intestine, plants act gradually.
2. Support for the intestinal microbiota
A natural dewormer respects and nourishes your intestinal flora, that precious ally of your natural defenses. By cleansing and rebalancing the intestine, the family's overall immunity is strengthened.
3. Preventive use is possible
These food supplements can be used preventively, especially in at-risk environments:
- Group settings (daycare, school, nursing home)
- Presence of pets
- After traveling to at-risk countries
- Seasonal changes (autumn/spring)
4. Action on the "terrain"
Rather than just "killing" parasites, the natural approach thoroughly cleanses the intestinal terrain, making the environment unfavorable for their proliferation. It is a holistic approach that aims not only to eliminate parasites but also to restore lasting digestive well-being.
5. Suitable for the whole family
One product for children (from 1 year old), adults, and even pets. Simplicity and savings.
💡 Note: Natural dewormers do not replace medical treatment in the event of a massive infestation or dangerous parasites (e.g., echinococci). They are perfect for prevention and for treating common mild to moderate infestations.
Vermsil: a natural and effective solution
Among the natural dewormers available, Vermsil from Vecteur Energy stands out as a 100% natural and organic solution, designed for the intestinal hygiene of the whole family.
Why Vermsil is different
- ✅ Liquid formula: Fast absorption, maximum bioavailability
- ✅ 100% organic: All ingredients are from organic farming
- ✅ Synergy of plants: 8 traditional plants that reinforce each other
- ✅ For the whole family: Children from 1 year old, adults, animals
- ✅ Lunar approach: Protocol based on natural cycles (full moon/new moon)
Detailed composition of Vermsil
The 8 plant-based active ingredients:
1. Mugwort floral water (Artemisia vulgaris)
The flagship ingredient. A powerful traditional dewormer, particularly effective against pinworms and roundworms.
2. Tansy (Tanacetum vulgare)
Nicknamed "the worm herb." Antiparasitic action recognized since the Middle Ages.
3. Pumpkin seeds (Cucurbita pepo)
Rich in cucurbitacin, paralyzes parasites. Gentle, ideal for children.
4. Wild garlic (Allium ursinum)
Powerful intestinal antiseptic, detoxifying, strengthens immunity.
5. Tagetes (Tagetes patula)
Mexican plant with antiparasitic and digestive properties.
6. Organic apple cider vinegar
Acidifies the intestinal environment (parasites hate it), promotes digestion.
7. Malic and tartaric acid
Natural acids that potentiate the action of the plants, creating a hostile environment.
8. Vegetable glycerin + sugar
Natural preservatives, soften the taste.
No chemical additives, no synthetic preservatives, no major allergens.
How Vermsil acts against parasites
Step 1: Hostile environment
The active principles of the plants (thujone from mugwort, allicin from garlic, cucurbitacin from pumpkin seeds) create an environment that parasites cannot tolerate.
Step 2: Paralysis and detachment
Parasites attached to the intestinal mucosa detach (cucurbitacin acts as an "anesthetic" for them).
Step 3: Natural expulsion
The intestinal transit, stimulated by the plants, naturally evacuates dead or weakened parasites.
Step 4: Regeneration
The plants soothe the inflammation caused by the parasites and support the repair of the mucosa.
Symptoms that Vermsil can relieve
✅ Unexplained chronic fatigue
✅ Persistent bloating
✅ Alternating constipation or diarrhea
✅ Anal itching (especially at night)
✅ Nasal itching
✅ Persistent dry cough (larval migration)
✅ Sleep disturbances, nervousness
✅ Sugar cravings (parasites love sugar)
Using Vermsil: traditional lunar protocol
Why lunar cycles?
Empirical tradition observes that parasites are more active and easier to dislodge during certain lunar phases. The full moon and new moon correspond to times when their reproductive activity is at its peak.
Full moon: Parasites lay eggs, are more mobile, more vulnerable
New moon: Reproduction cycle restarts, second window of action
Full 6-day/month protocol
Preparation (2 days before the full moon):
- Reduce sugars and dairy products (which feed parasites)
- Increase fiber (fruits, vegetables, whole grains)
- Stay well hydrated (2L of water/day)
Phase 1: Full moon (3 days)
- Adults: 1 tsp (5ml) in the morning on an empty stomach
- Children 1-12 years: 1 tsp (5ml) in the morning on an empty stomach
- Animals: 1 tbsp (15ml) per 100kg of body weight
Pause (10-12 days)
- Maintain a healthy diet
- Continue hydration
Phase 2: New moon (3 days)
- Same protocol as Phase 1
- This second phase eliminates eggs/larvae that may have hatched
Frequency of cures:
- Prevention: 2-4 times/year (autumn, spring especially)
- Suspected infestation treatment: 2-3 consecutive months
- Maintenance with animals: Once a month for 6 months
Practical tips for intake
Ideal time: On an empty stomach in the morning or 30 min before a meal (optimal absorption)
How to take:
- Shake the bottle well before use
- Pour the dose into a glass
- Dilute in a little water or apple juice (strong taste)
- Drink in one go
- Wait 30 min before eating
Taste tip: The mugwort + wild garlic blend is very bitter. For reluctant children, mix it into applesauce or fruit juice.
Deworming plants: a precious ally for the family
Plants offer incredible richness for intestinal hygiene and the fight against parasites. Their ancestral use testifies to their effectiveness and gentleness.
Why plants work:
- Multiple active compounds: Thujone, allicin, cucurbitacin, tannins...
- Synergistic action: Together, they are stronger
- Microbiota respect: Unlike chemical dewormers
- Millennial tradition: Used since antiquity
Mugwort: the essential deworming plant
Mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris) is a powerful medicinal plant, recognized since antiquity for its deworming properties.
Why mugwort is the queen of dewormers
Active principle: Thujone (monoterpene ketone)
Action: Paralyzes the nervous system of parasites, detaches them from the mucosa
Targeted parasites:
✅ Pinworms (95% traditional effectiveness)
✅ Roundworms
✅ Tapeworm
✅ Lamblia (giardia)
Digestive bonuses:
- Stimulates appetite and digestion
- Relieves bloating and cramps
- Choleretic action (stimulates bile = fat digestion)
Its floral water in Vermsil acts effectively while being gentler than essential oil (which would be too concentrated and dangerous).
Tradition: Used by Hildegard of Bingen in the Middle Ages, by Chinese medicine (Artemisia annua against malaria), and in all European pharmacopoeias.
Tansy: the recognized "worm herb"
Tansy (Tanacetum vulgare L.), often nicknamed "the worm herb," is another essential plant in the composition of Vermsil.
How tansy acts
Active principle: Thujone (like mugwort) + parthenolide
Action: Double attack - paralyzes parasites AND soothes intestinal inflammation
It is renowned for its antiparasitic properties and is traditionally used to help eliminate intestinal parasites. Its action is complementary to that of mugwort, reinforcing the effectiveness of the natural dewormer.
Additional benefits:
- Soothe digestive disorders
- Promote good transit
- Reduce fermentation and gas
It is a precious ally for the family's comfort, especially after an infestation that has weakened the intestinal mucosa.
Wild garlic: an ally for intestinal hygiene
Wild garlic (Allium ursinum L.) is much more than just an aromatic herb; it is a powerful purifier and an excellent support for intestinal hygiene.
The superpowers of wild garlic
Active principle: Allicin (sulfur compound)
Triple action:
1. Antiparasitic
Destroys parasites through its powerful antiseptic action.
2. Antibacterial/antifungal
Cleanses the entire intestine (parasites are often accompanied by bacterial or fungal imbalances like candida).
3. Detoxifying
Helps eliminate accumulated heavy metals and toxins.
Present in Vermsil, it is recognized for its natural antiseptic and antiparasitic properties. This wild garlic helps cleanse the intestine deeply, promoting the elimination of toxins and parasites.
It also helps to strengthen the digestive system and immunity, creating an environment less conducive to infestations. Its strong taste, while distinctive in Vermsil, is a testament to its powerful medicinal virtues.
Pumpkin seeds: a gentle and effective dewormer
Pumpkin seeds (Cucurbita pepo L.) are a gentle yet effective dewormer, particularly valued for their good tolerance, including in children.
The secret of pumpkin seeds: cucurbitacin
Active ingredient: Cucurbitacin (amino acid)
Unique action: Paralyzes intestinal parasites without killing them abruptly, thus facilitating their natural elimination through bowel movements.
How it works:
- Cucurbitacin "anesthetizes" the parasites' attachment mechanism
- They detach from the intestinal wall
- Peristalsis evacuates them naturally
- No toxins released (unlike dewormers that kill abruptly)
Integrated into the Vermsil formula, pumpkin seeds provide a complementary action to the other plants, making the treatment more comprehensive.
Nutritional bonus:
- Rich in zinc (immunity, skin)
- Magnesium (anti-stress, sleep)
- Omega-3 (anti-inflammatory)
They are also an excellent source of essential nutrients, contributing to the vitality and general well-being of the family. Their gentleness makes them an ideal choice for an intestinal detox without harshness, even for toddlers (from 1 year old).
Intestinal detox: an essential complement to deworming
Beyond the direct action of natural dewormers, an intestinal detox is an essential complement to restore and maintain optimal intestinal hygiene.
Why detox + dewormer = a winning combo
Dewormer alone: Eliminates live parasites
Intestinal detox: Cleanses residues, toxins, eggs, larvae, and prepares the "terrain"
It prepares the terrain, helps with the elimination of residues, and supports the microbiota, creating a healthy environment resistant to future parasite infestations.
The detox is not limited to the elimination of parasites; it aims for a global purification of the digestive system. It is a crucial step to regain smooth digestion, reduce bloating and fatigue, and strengthen the immunity of the whole family.
The benefits of intestinal detox
A well-conducted intestinal detox offers a multitude of health benefits for the whole family.
1. Deep cleansing
It first allows for cleansing the colon of accumulated toxins and parasite residues (corpses, eggs, larvae), which significantly improves digestion and nutrient absorption.
Concrete result: You can thus say goodbye to chronic bloating and constipation.
2. Rebalancing the microbiota
This purification promotes the rebalancing of the intestinal microbiota, which is essential for good immunity. A healthy intestine is the foundation of good general health.
Figures: 70-80% of your immunity is in your intestine. A balanced microbiota = fewer illnesses.
3. Regain of vitality
Reduction of fatigue, increased vitality, better mental clarity. It is a key step to prevent new infestations and maintain lasting well-being.
4. Mood improvement
The gut-brain axis: a healthy gut produces 90% of serotonin (the happiness hormone). Detox = better mood.
How to perform an effective intestinal detox?
For an effective intestinal detox, several approaches can be combined.
1. Detox diet (indispensable base)
Prioritize:
Soluble fibers (nourish good bacteria):
- Oats, barley, rye
- Apples, pears (with skin)
- Legumes (lentils, chickpeas)
- Sweet potatoes, carrots
Fermented foods (natural probiotics):
- Kefir, kombucha
- Raw sauerkraut, kimchi
- Miso, tempeh
- Natural yogurts
Massive hydration:
- 2-3L of water/day
- Herbal teas (fennel, mint, ginger)
- Homemade vegetable broths
Avoid (nourish parasites + clog):
❌ Refined sugars, pastries
❌ Excessive dairy products
❌ Red meats, cold cuts
❌ Processed foods, additives
❌ Saturated fats, fried foods
❌ Alcohol, excessive coffee
2. Detox food supplements
Blond psyllium (Plantago ovata)
Soluble fiber that swells, "sweeps" the intestine, carries away toxins and residues.
Dosage: 1 tsp in a large glass of water, 1-2×/day
Activated charcoal
Ultra-porous structure traps toxins, gases, heavy metals.
Dosage: 1-2 capsules 2×/day, away from meals and medication (2h)
Green clay
Absorbs toxins, bacteria, parasites. Remineralizes.
Dosage: 1 tsp in a glass of water, let it sit overnight, drink in the morning (supernatant water)
Quality probiotics
Reseed good bacteria after detox.
Key strains: Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium
Dosage: Minimum 10 billion CFU/day, for 4-8 weeks
3. Complete detox protocol (3 weeks)
Week 1: Preparation
- Gradually reduce sugars, dairy products, red meat
- Increase vegetables, fruits, water
- Start psyllium (1×/day)
Week 2: Intensive detox + Vermsil (full moon)
- 100% detox diet (see list above)
- Psyllium 2×/day
- Activated charcoal 2×/day (at a distance)
- VERMSIL: 3 days of full moon
Week 3: Vermsil (new moon) + reseeding
- Continue healthy diet
- VERMSIL: 3 days of new moon
- Stop charcoal
- Start probiotics (8 weeks)
A cure of Vermsil, with its deworming plants, fits perfectly into this detox protocol, acting in synergy for a deep cleaning and reinforced intestinal hygiene.
Usage tips and precautions
The use of natural dewormers like Vermsil requires following precise instructions to ensure their effectiveness and the safety of the whole family.
Precise dosage of Vermsil
Adults and children (from 1 year old):
1 teaspoon (5ml) per day
Pets:
1 tablespoon (15ml) per 100 kg of weight
(Ex: 20kg dog = 3ml, 5kg cat = 0.75ml)
Duration: 6 days per month (3 days of full moon + 3 days of new moon)
Timing: On an empty stomach or before a meal, after shaking the bottle well
Possible side effects (generally mild)
Although natural dewormers are generally well-tolerated, mild and temporary side effects may occur at the start of the cure:
Normal reactions (1-3 days):
- Mild bloating
- More frequent gas
- Softer stools (sign of expulsion)
- Slight fatigue (the body is detoxifying)
Sign that the body is adapting and parasites are being dislodged. These symptoms disappear quickly.
If effects are too intense:
- Reduce the dose by half
- Increase hydration
- Space out the doses
❌ Contraindications and precautions
Absolute contraindications:
❌ Children < 1 year (immature digestive system)
❌ Pregnant (especially 1st trimester) or breastfeeding women
❌ People on anticoagulant treatment (wild garlic slightly thins the blood)
❌ Known allergy to one of the plants in the formula
Special precautions:
⚠️ Epilepsy: Mugwort and tansy contain thujone (convulsant in high doses). Medical advice required.⚠️ Severe liver disorders: Intense detoxification strains the liver. Monitoring required.
⚠️ Medication treatment: Space out by at least 2 hours (possible interactions).
In case of doubt, persistent symptoms, or pre-existing medical conditions, a consultation with a healthcare professional is essential.
Storage
Before opening: At room temperature, away from light
After opening: In the refrigerator, consume within 2 months
Shake before each use (natural sediment possible)
💡 Expert tips from Marie
Tip #1: Never neglect hygiene
*"The best dewormer in the world will be useless if you are constantly reinfesting yourself. After each Verm'sil cure, I systematically recommend: wash bed sheets and underwear at 60°C, keep nails short, wash hands before every meal and after using the toilet. For families with children in group settings, this is NON-NEGOTIABLE. Otherwise, you're going in circles."*
Tip #2: Deworm the WHOLE family at the same time
"Classic mistake: treating only the child who has symptoms. The result? Mom or Dad are asymptomatic carriers, retransmitting it to the child 3 weeks later. Same thing for pets! If you have a dog or a cat, deworm it in parallel with the family. It's a GLOBAL protocol or it doesn't work."
Tip #3: Lunar cycles really count
"At first, some clients look at me strangely when I talk about the full moon. But after 15 years, I can tell you: those who follow the lunar protocol have 2 times better results than those who take Vermsil 'whenever they think about it.' Parasites are actually more active during these phases. Empirical tradition is right."
📊 Summary table: complete anti-parasite protocol

| Pause | Maintain healthy diet | 10-12 days | Probiotics |
| New moon | Vermsil 1 tsp/day + detox | 3 days | Vermsil + activated charcoal |
| Reseeding | High-dose probiotics | 8 weeks | Probiotics 10-20 billion CFU |
| Prevention | Strict hygiene + balanced diet | Ongoing | - |
FAQ: Your essential questions
How long before seeing results?
First effects in 3-7 days (symptom improvement). Complete parasite elimination: 2-3 months of treatment (2-3 consecutive lunar cycles).
Can Vermsil be used for prevention even without symptoms?
Yes, it is even recommended! 2-4 cures/year (notably in autumn and spring) if you have children in school/daycare or pets.
Can my 18-month-old child take Vermsil?
Yes, from 12 months onwards, with the same adult dose (1 tsp/day). The taste can be strong: dilute it in applesauce or apple juice.
Can Vermsil replace a chemical dewormer prescribed by a doctor?
No, never replace a medical treatment without advice. Vermsil is complementary or an alternative for mild/moderate infestations and for prevention. In case of dangerous parasites (tapeworm, etc.), you must strictly follow medical treatment.
Can Vermsil be taken during pregnancy?
Not recommended, especially in the 1st trimester (mugwort and tansy contain thujone). Wait until after childbirth or seek medical advice.
Can parasites return after a Vermsil cure?
Yes, in case of re-infestation (poor hygiene, contact with non-dewormed animals, community settings). This is why regular preventive cures and strict hygiene are so important.
Conclusion: A natural protocol for a healthy family
Taking care of your family's intestinal hygiene is an essential pillar for comprehensive and lasting health. By adopting a natural protocol, you are choosing a gentle approach that is respectful of the body and deeply effective.
The 4 pillars of a parasite-free family
