Proven vs unproven: By definition, "alternative" is different than modern western medicine. Generally any drug, herb, treatment, or procedure that stands up to rigorous scientific scrutiny is included in modern medicine. The problem is that many alternative practices, herbs etc do not stand up to scientific scrutiny and cannot be shown to work. They therefore remain "alternative". Be careful and watch your wallet.

White rice looking stool does not mean automatically you have worms. Would suggest diagnosing properly prior to any traditional or alternative treatment. A stool sample is all it takes. The risk of trying treatment for an undiagnosed condition is not worth its potential benefit.

Unless you have travelled outside the USA, you are unlikely to have an intestinal parasite other than pinworm. Your doctor can ask for a stool test to settle the issue. For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/., exercise 30 minutes/day, drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. Get HPV and Covid vaccines.
