The network is replete with advertisements of various means that will help get rid of parasites, which, according to the authors of this advertisement, literally eat a person alive, taking away his strength, energy, health, will to live - whatever.
Unfortunately, along with real-life problems, advertisers also offer remedies for those parasites that are not found in our country or do not exist at all in nature (for example, sometimes we talk about "energy" and "spiritual" parasites).
As a result, many gullible readers fall prey to deception and waste money, while real diseases remain. They continue to destroy the body and poison people's lives. To avoid deception, you need to know what kind of parasites really are and how they harm the human body.
Who are parasites and what are they like?
In translation from Greek "parasite" means "companion", that is, one who shares a meal with the owner. It was originally a priestly office in ancient Greece. In biology, this is the name for living things that live off other living things (also called owners), and at the same time harm them. Parasites should not be confused with commensals (those organisms that live at the expense of others, but do not bring harm, just eating scraps).

Parasites should not be confused with commensals (those organisms that live at the expense of others, but do not bring harm, just eating scraps).
Parasites exist among all the kingdoms of living organisms: viruses are parasites to one and all, bacteria and fungi - partially, there are few parasites among plants and they parasitize only on other plants.
When we talk about parasites that live in / on the human body, we are usually talking about animals, while other organisms are simply called "disease-causing organisms. "
Thus, parasites in / on the human body are animals that eat at the expense of humans, harming their health.
According to their habitat, parasites are divided into ectoparasites (live outside the body, for example, lice, mosquitoes, etc. ), and endoparasites (live inside, such as parasitic worms or unicellular animals). Worms live not only in the intestines, but also in the lungs, heart, liver, bloodstream, and so on.
The most common worms are:
- Roundworms:
- Pinworms;
- Ascaris;
- Trichinella.
- Flatworms:
- Pork tapeworm;
- Bull tapeworm;
- Various types of liver flukes;
- Echinococcus.
Some of these parasites pose a mortal danger to humans. These are roundworms, trichinella, echinococcus. Others (hepatic flukes) lead to serious diseases, accompanied by pain, fever, nausea, disruption of the normal functioning of internal organs and poisoning by the metabolic products of the parasite.
What folk remedies help with pinworms?
Pinwormsare the safest of all parasitic worms, and at the same time, the most common. These are bisexual organisms that live in the intestines. At night, they crawl out through the anus and lay eggs, which fall on the skin, clothing, under the nails, and so on.
Then these eggs can get into food and be eaten.
Thus, the patient infects himself and others.
To prevent this from happening, if you suspect pinworms, you can use zinc ointment.
It is smeared on the skin around the anus, and the female parasites will die from poisoning as soon as they crawl out to lay eggs.
For ingestion, use onions. For ten days, insist onion chopped to the state of gruel in aptic alcohol (1: 1 by weight), and then drink a tablespoon twice a day before meals.
The child needs to make a water infusion. The onion is filled with hot water for 12 hours. Give your child half a cup once a day.
Ascaris remedies
Everybody knows well-known folk remedies for roundworms based on pumpkin seeds. More than one generation of grandmothers recommended their grandchildren to eat pumpkin seeds so that "there were no worms. "But simply eating this product will not completely eliminate the parasites.
You need to make decoctions, extracts and mixtures. Grind a pound of seeds in a mortar, cover with water. Then eat with a teaspoon for an hour. After three hours, it is advisable to do an enema so that the poisoned parasites are removed from the body.
For adults, a mixture of pumpkin seeds and wormwood is suitable. One part of pumpkin seeds and one part of dried wormwood are mixed with two parts of vodka and infused for seven days. Then apply 50 mg twice a day.
In a few days, the parasites will be completely defeated. You should not abuse the product: the infusion of wormwood on alcohol has narcotic properties and contributes to the development of alcoholism.
For children, the remedy is categorically contraindicated for the same reasons.
When roundworms eat more garlic and onions, as parasitic worms do not tolerate them well. On the basis of milk and garlic, a good decoction is made, which can be given enemas. For this, a clove of garlic is boiled until softened in 200 gr. milk. Put an enema at night.
You can use the same remedies against ascaris that are effective against pinworms. Both types of helminths belong to the same type of animals and have similar biology.
From parasites in the liver
The liver is an essential organ with many functions. It is a filter for blood, and iron, which produces bile, and a "storehouse" of glycogen. Therefore, parasites in this organ do the most harm and cause the most unpleasant symptoms. Hepatic colic, nausea, jaundice, allergies and much more are the result of parasite infestation.
Black walnut, which is a universal remedy for flatworms, helps with these parasites. For treatment, prepare a tincture of 30 milk-wax ripeness fruits, pour vodka over them and leave for 40 days.
After that, you need to filter out the tincture and start using 2 teaspoons a day, one in the morning and one in the evening.
Tinctures of pumpkin seeds and wormwood, cloves and many other infusions, for example, the already mentioned remedies based on onions and garlic, are also effective. Effective against flukes and pomegranates. 5 grams of the bark of this fruit is poured with 100 grams of hot water, infused for 30 minutes and consumed in a teaspoon 4 times a day.
From other flatworms
Cut 8 garlic cloves, squeeze out the juice and dilute in warm water (about a glass). With this remedy, you can make an enema that is effective against tapeworms (tapeworms).
2 tablespoons of crushed garlic can be boiled in milk to make a decoction for drinking. Before taking, you should eat 200 gr. pumpkin seeds, and then take a laxative. Dry ginger will help with echinococcus. Grind it, dissolve a teaspoon in 50 gr. milk. You need to drink such a remedy every other day.
Citrus fruits also help against echinococcus. Chew lemon peel, add it to various meals or drinks. The dry rind from one lemon can be finely chopped and dropped into 100 grams of hot water. Let the product stand until the water has cooled to a temperature at which it can be drunk, and you can safely use the product. You can drink it without restrictions, but at least once a day.
From unicellular parasites
Giardiaare common unicellular parasites that inhabit the small intestine and cause giardiasis. Garlic helps with lamblia (50 grams per 200 grams of vodka). The remedy is infused for a week, it is used 20 grams per day.
Horseradish balm is a good remedy. The root of this plant is cleaned, cut into shavings and filled with cold water for three days. Twice a day, the agent needs to be shaken, and when it is ready, it is filtered and diluted with honey in equal parts, and then taken 15 minutes before eating a tablespoon.
Caraway seeds, bird cherry, garlic, hawthorn and sea buckthorn help with parasitic amoebas. Caraway seeds are poured with hot water (200 g), left in a water bath for a quarter of an hour, and then cooled. Three times a day after a meal, the agent is consumed half a glass.
You can make a water infusion from bird cherry berries (10 berries per glass of hot water), or just eat them. The same goes for other berries.
From external parasites
Outside, human skin is home to lice, which are divided into species such as head louse, pubic louse and body louse. The first two species live on hair, the third on clothing. They bite a person and drink his blood, causing itching, scratching and other diseases.
The simplest methods of dealing with lice are mechanical methods. This is a haircut and combing, which allows you to get rid of specific parasites by removing them from the surface of the skin.
One of the old, pre-revolutionary recipes involves the use of kerosene, alone or in half with oil. The potion is rubbed into the skin and exudes a scent that repels the lice and forces them to leave their habitat.
A triple cologne can be used for the same purpose. Dampen your hair with it and wrap it with cellophane for an hour and a half. Then wash your hair.
A 1: 1 mixture of cabbage juice and honey also helps. This product is rubbed into the scalp and then washed off with water.
Conclusion
Thus, parasites can exist both inside the human body and on its surface. They feed on human food or on the tissues of the body themselves: blood, muscles, etc. Of course, their activities cause significant damage to human health. In addition, parasites can cause mechanical damage and bleeding to internal organs, and their waste products can poison the body, causing nausea and dizziness.
Treatment for parasites is based on the use of medicinal properties of various plants, which are relatively harmless to humans and deadly poisonous to their enemies.
Before starting treatment, you should consult with a specialist and pass the necessary tests in order to know exactly which parasites to be treated for.
Since many medicinal plants are harmful to humans (for example, wormwood), treatment should be differentiated between children and adults, which will avoid side effects and poisoning.
Lice and other insects are external human parasites. Alternative treatment for them is based on the use of odorous substances and plants that can scare off six-legged parasites.
