The human body is a complex system, and for its normal functioning it is necessary that all organs are in order and work efficiently. However, parasites can prevent this and significantly spoil our lives. How can you tell if you are infected with them? Will traditional treatments be effective? When is it time to sound the alarm? How can the parasites be removed from the human body? What medicines are there? We will discuss all this in this article.
How do you know when it's time to poison them?
Some parasites can manifest themselves immediately after infection. Others may live with you for years and not make themselves felt in any way. How to check if there are parasites in the body?
Sadly, almost every person has these uninvited guests.It is not at all difficult to get infected with them, which cannot be said about the process of fighting them.
It should be noted that most of the symptoms of the presence of any parasite are similar, however, some manifestations in themselves warn a person about the presence of a particular parasite.
The most common are:
- frequent headaches;
- constant weakness;
- nausea and vomiting;
- indigestion;
- increased or decreased appetite;
- bad breath;
- dizziness;
- nervous disorders;
- circles under the eyes.
And this is not a complete list of problems caused by pests. It is sad that when a patient is admitted to the hospital, doctors do not always strive to find out their presence, but immediately prescribe a course of treatment for an alleged illness.But sometimes it is enough just to exterminate the parasites, and the state of health will greatly improve.
Unsurprisingly, the human body seems like a tasty morsel for these pests. After all, their main food is glucose and sucrose. Pests in the human body can be both unicellular and multicellular. These are the ones that most often attack our body:
- roundworm;
- pinworms;
- lamblia;
- opisthorchs;
- staphylococci;
- streptococci.
Symptoms of individual parasites: salmonella
This is not a complete list of pests. For example, when salmonella enters the body (this usually occurs through infected bird eggs), a person suddenly develops weakness, fatigue, and severe stool disorder. The negative state is accompanied by headaches and severe pulling pain in the lower back.
The intensity of symptoms depends largely on the number of parasites and on what period in their life cycle at the moment.If you do not seek help in time, the patient's condition can reach critical: because of the pain, the patient will not even be able to move independently.
Signs of Epstein-Barr Virus Infection
Some parasites and viruses “eat” the human nervous system. For example, the Epstein-Barr virus. It may not manifest itself for a while.However, soon a person will notice a deterioration in mood, sudden changes.This can all develop into depression and even lead to a visit to a psychiatrist.
However, this does not solve the problem, because the root of it lies elsewhere. You can take serious medications that suppress the work of the central nervous system, but this will only ruin your health. It is better to first identify the parasitic organisms and destroy them. All unpleasant symptoms will go away on their own, without outside interference.
Giardia Symptoms
If a so-called allergy appears on the body, and you have never suffered from this before, it is worth considering.Small red dots, localized in different parts of the body, accompanying sharp paroxysmal pain in the abdomen and intestines, frequent diarrhea - can warn of lamblia. This cunning guest is very fond of sweet foods and, living in your body, gradually erodes it. At the same time, you may find that mucus is present in the feces, and the anus is very itchy at night. The development of asthma symptoms is possible. All these are the consequences of the activity of lamblia. How important it is to determine the cause in time and start the correct treatment, without feeding yourself unnecessarily with drugs!
Of course, you can remove these pests from the body at home, but not all. This must be taken into account when choosing a treatment method. Obviously, infection with them can lead to serious consequences and signs of the disease should not be ignored.
Tip! If you experience some of these symptoms and you suspect the presence of parasitic organisms, contact your doctor and request a referral for a blood test, mentioning why. Their presence is well determined by computer diagnostics of the body.
If pests are found in children, this requires special attention. With a growing organism, they can play a cruel joke. They can not only destroy health, but also affect the development of your child.
Infection Methods
There are actually many of them:
- Some pests are transmitted by airborne droplets or by hand.
- You can get sick from drinking poor-quality water.Infection can occur even if you drink only purified water from the tap at home, as some pests are much smaller than filters and slip inside.
- You can get parasites through poorly washed vegetables and fruits, especially those brought from tropical countries.
- Raw fish are a powerful source of parasites.
- Contact with animals, even if not close (approximately five meters), can lead to pest infestation through saliva and air.
- Pests are also transmitted through the bites of blood-sucking insects or even simply through flies.
As we've seen, getting infected is easy. Some of them, like amoeba, are often diagnosed in people arriving from vacation in tropical countries. These pests can only be cured medically. Traditional methods are powerless. This means that it is necessary to understand not only the folk methods of struggle, but also to learn how to remove them with medicines.
Using folk remedies
Fortunately, some folk remedies for pest control have worked well enough.
There are several methods. The most common and effective ones are:
- herbs;
- pumpkin and nuts;
- triad;
- spicy foods;
- coconut;
- onions and garlic;
- carnation;
- cinnamon.
Now let's take a closer look at how to deal with this scourge using all of these methods.
Effective Herbs
Any course of killing parasites should consist of several stages. This is also true for the use of herbs. So which herbs are best to use?
Let's divide the treatment into three stages.
1st stage
At this stage, it is effective to apply wormwood. It acts intensively on adult parasites and significantly reduces their population.
It is necessary to take 100 ml of wormwood tincture twice a day. The solution should be drunk on an empty stomach. It is best to take a freshly brewed infusion: pour 200 ml of boiling water over a spoonful of herbs, let it brew for half an hour and drain. This amount of medicine is enough for a day.
Important! Do not use this method for people with a weakened body and psyche. Wormwood is a potent substance that can even cause hallucinations. It nevertheless effectively attacks parasitic organisms. Never exceed the permissible dose!
The first stage of treatment can last 5 days. Then we move on to the next step of treatment.
2nd stage
Pumpkin seeds are used simultaneously with herbs. To do this, it is necessary to clean about 300 g of seeds, but it is important to preserve the green shell of the grain - it is in it that there are so necessary substances.
Preparing the herbal infusion: add in equal proportions:
- tansy;
- chamomile (flowers);
- oak bark;
- buckthorn bark.
All this must be filled with half a liter of water and left in a warm place. Ideal - in a thermos. Leave it overnight.
On an empty stomach, you need to eat cooked seeds and drink one third of the infusion.
Then you need to take a laxative.
It is best to use natural substances rather than pharmaceutical tablets.
Repeat this for five days. Then the body needs to be given a ten-day rest. This is important for the intestinal walls to heal.
3rd stage
The main purpose of this stage is to cleanse the liver. To do this, use the following infusion: a spoonful of nettle in a glass of boiling water, boil for about 15 minutes, leave for half an hour. Drink a few spoons 3-4 times a day. Lemon juice and olive oil will be helpful.
This entire cleansing course must be repeated twice. On secondary use after the second stage, rest is not worth giving, since the intestinal trauma will no longer be the same as the first time.
Pumpkin and nuts will help
Even our grandparents knew what an invaluable help pumpkin can provide to human health! However, in order for it to be effective against parasitic organisms, it is best used with the peel. Or try to preserve the inner shell when cleaning the beans.
Sprinkle the prepared grains with salt water. Fry in a pan. Eat regularly.This product effectively fights roundworms and other types of pests.
Walnut also has power against them. How to use it?
- Prepare 4 tablespoons of chopped nuts.
- Pour boiling water over a glass and add salt.
- Boil the composition.
- Let it brew for half an hour.
- The entire composition should be drunk in small portions a day.
Using a triad
The triad should include the following components:
- carnation;
- tansy;
- wormwood.
To prepare a triad, take:
- 50 g;
- 100 g;
- 30 g each herb respectively.
All these components must be ground into powder and mixed.Take one teaspoon at a time. The rest of the mixture should be stored in a cool dry place in a glass container with a tightly closed lid.
The first day, it is enough to take the triad once - half an hour before meals. Drink the composition with plenty of water, and in general, try to drink at least two liters of water per day during the treatment period.
On the second and third days of treatment, medicinal herbs should be drunk twice a day, and then three times a day. The course should be several months. Once the parasites have been eradicated, you can continue to take the medicine in a spoonful only once a week - this will be enough to prevent and prevent re-infection. Within a year, you will completely get rid of pests in the body.
Spicy food
While eating spicy foods on a regular basis is difficult to completely eliminate parasites, it is still possible to significantly reduce their number in the body.
You should not use this method to eliminate pests in children, and those who have stomach problems should also be careful with this method.
It is better to use spicy foods as a preventive measure - the role of pepper in this regard is rather weak, and the risk to the stomach is quite high.
Coconut
Oddly enough, this product can help you get rid of pests. For the preparation of a medicinal mixture, you can use both fresh coconut and separately purchased coconut flakes and coconut milk. Surely kids will love this delicious pest control method.
- If using coconut, separate the milk from the coconut itself and grate the pulp on a fine grater.
- Mix everything together.
- Take a teaspoon of the product on an empty stomach daily.
- Store the remaining mixture in the refrigerator.
The course of treatment with this method should last a week. Then you need to take a break and repeat the course again.
Onions and garlic
Onions and garlic have a number of advantages, as they contain not only substances necessary for the body, but also components that are harmful to some types of pests.
To heal with a bow, try this method:
- chop the onion with a meat grinder or blender;
- add a glass of boiling water;
- leave to infuse overnight;
- Strain and take half a glass a day.
This procedure should be done over several days. Then you can either give a break and repeat the course, or switch to another method.
Garlic is commonly used as a base for candles.After chopping the head of garlic, pour a small amount of boiling water over it. After half an hour, prepare a candle by wetting cotton with this solution and wrapping it with a bandage. The candle is placed in the anus for 15-20 minutes.
Other ways to control pests in the body
Let's look at some more treatments:
- cloves;
- cinnamon.
If you chew one piece of cloves several times a day during a month, then very soon you will suppress the vital activity of almost all types of pests.
Cloves have a very similar effect to cinnamon. Take it regularly and add it to your favorite meals. One dose should be about an eighth of a teaspoon.
It's important to remember that if you want to control parasites, you need to completely eliminate sweets and alcohol.Otherwise, all your efforts will be in vain. You cannot simultaneously get carried away with cakes, sweets and treat the infection. Otherwise, the pests will regularly receive a lot of nutrition, which is why they will freely hide in cysts and survive the period of treatment, subsequently restoring their activity.
But how do you get them out with pills?
Taking pills
Of course, drugs from the pharmacy can also be helpful. However, in no case should you self-medicate and prescribe your own medication. This can cause severe liver damage.
Only a doctor can determine the dosage and frequency of administration!
