Folk remedies to treat parasites

Parasites are creatures that survive at the expense of other creatures, such as animals, humans, and plants. There are more than two types of intestinal parasites that can settle in the human body and cause many negative symptoms. In particular, parasites often settle in children because their bodies are not fully formed and are susceptible to external influences.

Worm infection is a dangerous disease caused by parasites-worms. The body must share nutrition, useful elements and vitamins with them. The parasitic pinworms and roundworms feed on the food in the host's intestines and absorb all the substances important to life.

Method of infection

The most common route of oral fecal infection is through the mouth. In this case, there are two ways to enter:

  • Geooral-They enter the esophagus through hands, household items, food, feathers, and pet hair, and are contaminated by soil particles, in which there are invasive eggs and protozoan cysts. In this way, you may be infected with ascariasis, giardiasis, ascariasis, cysticercosis, toxoplasmosis, and hydatid disease;
  • Heterotrophism-When eating fish and animal meat that has not been properly heat-treated, if the meat contains larvae, it will appear in the human body. As a result, you may be infected with trichinosis, toxoplasmosis and other invasions.

There are other ways of infection:

  1. Contact method: It can be passive (transmitted through the reproductive tract) and active (a person gets infected through the skin while bathing in a freshwater reservoir);
  2. Airborne body infection methods are considered to be less common, but in this way, lung cysts living in the air can enter the body;
  3. The mode of transmission (through blood) that can be transmitted is characteristic of filariasis infection. The larvae are carried by blood-sucking insects. Usually, this disease occurs in hot countries near the equator;
  4. Transplacental pathway-from the mother to the child's body in the womb. In this way, you may get toxoplasmosis.

In the course of evolution, parasites have developed characteristics that expand the possibility of their colonization in the human body. This refers to the fertility of the parasite. For example, hookworms can lay 25, 000 eggs a day, roundworms-200, 000 eggs, and tapeworms can lay more than 4 million eggs a day.

Therefore, in the air, household goods, edible foods, pets, eggs, larvae and cysts around us, even if we pay attention to hygiene, water often exists. People often become infected with parasites due to incorrectly following techniques for cooking meat or fish dishes. For example, in order to overcome hookworm disease larvae of carp, at least 20% salt solution should be used when pickling, and the pickling time should be at least 2 weeks. After such processing, it is unlikely that anyone will want to eat fish.

It turns out that only people with excellent immunity and high body resistance will not worry about infecting parasites, and such people are extremely rare.

Symptoms of parasites colonizing the body

Many characteristic symptoms will tell you that the parasite is in the body. There are many signs and it is difficult to distinguish them from the symptoms of other diseases. The list of symptoms is as follows:

  • constipate. If the parasites in the intestine grow to large, they will block the intestinal passage. A large amount of infiltration can also close the bile duct and cause stool retention;
  • diarrhea. Some parasites, especially protozoa, produce substances that thin the feces in the intestinal tract during the survival process of the host body, thereby causing diarrhea. Therefore, diarrhea may indicate the presence of parasites, not just poisoning by poor-quality products;
  • Bloating and gas. When the parasite enters the small intestine, the area becomes inflamed and gas production increases;
  • Irritable bowel syndrome. Parasites stimulate the intestinal mucosa, cause inflammation, and are accompanied by a series of characteristic symptoms and reduced food absorption, especially fat in food. Fatty acids are not absorbed by the small intestine, but are sent to the large intestine, where they cause cramps, diarrhea and constipation;
  • Pain in muscles and joints. Parasites can move in the human body and settle in the places that are most attractive to them: muscles and joint fluid. When this happens, the patient feels pain and treats it as a symptom of arthritis. In addition, joint inflammation and pain symptoms may be the result of tissue damage caused by worms or the immune system's response to parasites;
  • Allergic manifestations-worm's toxic waste can activate the body's immune response in the form of an increased number of eosinophils-protective cells and immunoglobulin E;
  • Skin problems-due to parasites, rashes, eczema, acne, papilloma, age spots, itching, dermatitis and other unpleasant reactions may occur;
  • anemia. Certain types of parasites will actively draw useful nutrients from the human intestines. If there are many such parasites, they can cause severe blood loss, which leads to a decrease in the iron content in the blood, which can lead to anemia. This symptom is characteristic of the defeat of Trichomonas and other protozoa;
  • Weight changes. Both weight loss and weight gain may indicate the presence of worms. Due to the appearance of internal friction, the quality is reduced, and many nutrients in the body are not absorbed. Due to physical "robbing", weight may increase. A person’s hunger increases and he starts to eat more and more frequently. To normalize body weight, we must first remove parasites from the body;
  • Irritability, nervousness, anxiety. Toxic elements secreted by parasites can stimulate the central nervous system. Feelings of anxiety, depression, and sleep disorders are often the result of such poisoning. Due to the effect of deworming methods, these symptoms disappeared;
  • Bruxism is when people grind their teeth while sleeping. This symptom has been observed in children and adults;
  • The body's immune system is weakened, often catching colds and viral diseases;
  • Inflammation of the respiratory tract, cough, high fever, runny nose.

Folk remedies for parasites in the human body

People turn to various antiparasitic drugs-pills sold in pharmacies. However, many of them are toxic to the body, and they can cause severe poisoning if taken uncontrollably or if the dosage is not adhered to. Therefore, treatment with folk remedies has not lost its significance.

How to use traditional medicine to fight parasites correctly? Treating with folk remedies not only cleanses the internal parasites, but also helps restore the coordination of all systems and organs. After removing the parasites, it is important to maintain liver function because it is the main filter for bacteria and toxic substances.

Soda water treatment

Soda water helps fight pests quickly and effectively. If they are already settled in the child's body, it is recommended to enema with a soda solution-1 teaspoon dissolved in 1 liter of water. Before performing this kind of enema, it is necessary to use natural defecation or regular water enema to empty the intestines. Soda water must remain in the intestines for a maximum of 30 minutes. These procedures are repeated every other day for a week.

Aloe juice processing

Garlic removes parasites

important!When washing your body with garlic, you must swallow the whole piece. You cannot chew, otherwise the plant will be digested in the stomach and will not bring the desired effect. If the clove is intact, then it will begin to process only in the intestine where the worm lives.

Pomegranate peel

Pomegranate peel therapy has an excellent effect, but in this case, it is important to consider the correct dosage, because large amounts of this antiparasitic agent can cause poisoning.

Prevention method

In order for the parasites to bypass your body, you need to follow generally accepted precautions:

  • Always pay attention to personal hygiene. After washing the skin with warm water and soap, the eggs and larvae of the parasites will not stay on the surface of the skin. Wash your hands every time you go to public places, transportation, shops and streets, and after going to the toilet and before meals. Don't forget to change the sheets and underwear. These things must be washed with hot water and must be ironed-after this process, the eggs of the parasite cannot survive;
  • Give due attention to product processing. This applies not only to meat and fish. Larvae can be found on any vegetables, fruits, herbs. Therefore, it must be thoroughly cleaned and soaked in boiling water;
  • Don't drink tap water. There are a lot of larvae in tap water. This liquid can only be consumed after boiling;
  • Avoid swimming in untested freshwater waters. Many of them live with parasites that can penetrate human skin. Sometimes for infections, it is enough to wet your feet or wash your hands in this kind of water;
  • Included in diet foods that fight worms: garlic, peppers, raw carrots, pumpkin seeds, etc.
  • Take control of any insects that enter the house. Usually they are larvae that carry harmful parasites. For example, flies, Prusaks, mosquitoes, and psyllids carry eggs on their bodies;
  • If you have pets in your home, such as dogs and cats, you need to monitor their hygiene and disinfect the animal's toilet regularly.

If it happens that the parasites have already entered the body, then you need to start fighting them immediately. You should not only use folk methods. When encountering such problems, it is necessary to consult a doctor so that he can prescribe effective and complex treatments.
