Parashield is a set of five Coral Club products used together as a 30-day program, manufactured in the USA and Japan: ParaFight (90 capsules), Coral Burdock Root (90 capsules), MSM (60 capsules), Super-Flora (90 capsules) and Coral-Mine (30 sachets).
Coral Club describes the program as designed to support the body's natural cleansing processes, a healthy immune response and balanced intestinal microflora.*
A note on parasites
Coral Club markets Parashield in connection with parasites. A parasitic infection is a medical condition: it needs a diagnosis, usually a stool test, and prescription care chosen by a doctor. Dietary supplements are not intended for that purpose, and this page makes no such claim. Anyone who suspects parasites — for example after travel, or with persistent digestive symptoms or weight loss — should see a doctor.
The five products
- ParaFight — 12 plant extracts per 2 capsules, led by 300 mg black walnut leaf, with clove, gentian, chamomile, long pepper, yarrow, althaea, garlic, mint, thyme, sage and oregano. Coral Club states it supports healthy digestion.*
- Coral Burdock Root — 500 mg burdock root powder and 100 mg extract per capsule; a source of inulin fiber.
- MSM — 750 mg methylsulfonylmethane, 50 mg vitamin C and 50 mcg biotin per capsule.
- Super-Flora — Bifidobacterium longum and Lactobacillus acidophilus with inulin.
- Coral-Mine — coral minerals for drinking water; 356 mg calcium and 15 mg magnesium per sachet.
The daily schedule is on the instructions inside the package. Parashield Plus is the extended 60-day version.
