Today we are going to talk about how you can get rid of parasites in the human body using folk remedies. Unfortunately, many patients seek medical help too late, without giving proper attention to the diagnosis and treatment of this problem. Meanwhile, the parasites that live in the human body cause great damage to your health and significantly worsen your well-being.
types of parasites
Medicine knows more than 250 types of parasitic organisms from which people suffer. Parasites differ from each other in structure, size, favorite location in the human body, clinical manifestations during infection. But they all have one thing in common: nutrition at the expense of its bearer. Parasites that live in the gastrointestinal tract are especially harmful.
Of these, the most common:
- Roundworms that cause ascariasis. It is a common parasite (according to statistics, about 50 million cases of infection are diagnosed worldwide each year). The worm's habitat in the human body is the small intestine. The length of an adult can reach more than 40 cm.
- Ankylostoma is a roundworm that also lives in the intestines. It is widespread among the population of tropical countries.
- Giardia is a protozoan that lives and works in the human liver. They are more common in young children.
- Broad tapeworm - tapeworm that can reach 10 meters. Its lifespan is up to 25 years. It lives in the small intestine.
- Pinworm is a small round worm (less than 1 cm) that also parasitizes the human intestine.
- Toxocars are helminths that cause a serious condition with allergy symptoms. These parasites usually affect children between 1 and 4 years old.
- Chain (beef and pork) - long tapeworms (4-10 m). If left untreated, adults reach the age of 20 years.
Infection with parasites often occurs due to poor personal hygiene and violation of the rules of cooking technology.Those who regularly forget to wash their hands, fruits or vegetables are at great risk. There is a threat of helminth eggs entering the body when using poorly prepared animal products, in particular meat.
Another common route of infection is through contact with pets, including kittens. It is important to remember that after communicating with them, you should wash your hands thoroughly with soap and never kiss animals.
It is possible to determine the type of organism that has settled in the human gastrointestinal tract after passing the necessary tests. Then the attending physician prescribes special therapy, although many of the patients prefer to get rid of parasites from the body with folk remedies.
Symptoms of Infection
What are the signs that one should suspect that "unwanted guests" have appeared in the gastrointestinal tract and start looking for a proper way to treat them? Clinical manifestations largely depend on the degree of development of the disease, the characteristics of the human body and the type of parasites. Common symptoms include:
- recurrent bouts of nausea or vomiting;
- general weakness and increased fatigue;
- dizziness;
- a marked change in weight (weight loss and weight gain);
- discomfort and pain in the epigastric region;
- bowel disorder (diarrhea or constipation);
- deterioration of the condition of the skin, nails and hair.
The parasites that infect the human body feed on its tissues and nutrients in the body. As a result, it does not receive the necessary amount of useful micro and macro elements, which inevitably leads to a deterioration of the general condition. After carrying out laboratory tests, you can confirm or deny the fact of parasite infection.
Treatment with folk remedies
Getting rid of parasites with folk remedies is based on the special effect of certain substances, mostly of natural origin. Before starting such treatment, it will be helpful to consult your doctor about the use of this or that method.
Hilda Clark's Method
Hilda Clarke was a renowned physician and scientist specializing in parasitology. She believed that most known and difficult-to-treat diseases are the result of infection by pathogenic organisms. Hence, she developed her own unique way of fighting human parasites, which today has become known throughout the world.
The method consists of using a special complex of herbal remedies. It has three components:
- alcohol tincture from the shell of a green walnut (if necessary, it can be replaced with a "pharmacy" balm with similar composition and active ingredients);
- absinthe (dried raw materials);
- Ground cloves, known as a fragrant spice and sold in grocery stores (they can be ground in a coffee grinder, spice grinder or mortar).
To make a tincture that gets rid of parasites at home, you need green shells of 15 green walnuts. They are washed, poured into 0. 5 liters. vodka or medicinal alcohol, which must first be diluted to 45-50 °. The resulting composition must be infused in direct sunlight (for example, in a southern window) for 30 days. The finished product is stored only in a dark place.
This tincture (or balm) should be taken in the morning before the first meal. On the first day, 1 drop of the drug is diluted in 100 ml of cold water and drunk, and then it is prescribed to increase the dose by drop every day. After 6 days, and then you should already take 2 tsp. The course of treatment is one year, although the death of the parasites occurs earlier.
Dry absinthe is taken in the evening before dinner in the form of a powder, which is washed off with a glass of water. Reception scheme:
- 1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th, 9th, 11th day - (0, 2-0, 3 g) of raw materials;
- 2nd (0. 4-0. 6g), 4th (0. 6-0. 9g), 6th (0. 8-1. 2g), 8th (1-1. 5g), 10th (1, 2-1. 8 g) and 12th (1, 4-2, 1).
After that, wormwood is taken as a prophylactic agent for a year in a minimum daily dosage before the last meal (1. 4-2. 1 g).
Ground cloves should be drunk three times a day, half an hour before meals. On the first day - half a gram, on the second - 1 g, and from 3 to 10 days - a gram and a half. After expiry of 10 days, it is taken once a week for a year to consolidate the effect.
troichetka
Another way to help get rid of parasites in the body using popular methods is to use another trio of plant-based components. It is adapted to conditions in the middle zone, where the nuts do not grow and their unripe fruits can be difficult to obtain. In this recipe, tansy takes its place.
For the treatment you will need:
- dry tansy - 100 g;
- dry wormwood - 25 g;
- cloves, ground - 50 g.
All ingredients must be mixed well and stored in a dry jar in a dark place. A single serving of this mixture is 1. 75 grams. Tansy is quite toxic, so it's important to accurately determine how much of the drug to take, and this will require a pharmacy scale.
On the first day, the drug is taken only in the morning, at least 30 minutes before meals. In the second - before breakfast and dinner. On the third and after - 3 times a day (before breakfast, lunch and dinner). The duration of treatment is usually just one week. Contraindications: gastric ulcer, erosive gastritis.
An alternative recipe for "triplets"
This is another very effective home remedy for parasite control. To prepare the drug, you need to take:
- caraway seeds - 1 part;
- ground marigold ("medicinal marigolds") - 2 parts;
- crushed rhizome of marsh calamus - 1 part.
All components must be thoroughly mixed. This natural preparation is used in the same dosage and according to the same scheme as the classical triad.
Other popular ways to fight parasites
In folk medicine, there is a whole list of ways to get rid of parasites in the intestines. For this, various substances are used, the most effective and popular being:
- Food clay, white or blue-white (available at your pharmacy). This antiparasitic therapy will be especially beneficial for patients with increased gastric acidity.
For treatment, it is necessary to prepare a solution of clay in a glass of water. After thorough stirring, the preparation should settle until the sediments settle to the bottom and resemble milk. Such a folk remedy is taken twice a day - in the morning 20 minutes before meals and in the evening before bed. In this case, the precipitate is not used.
The duration of treatment is usually 30 days. At the same time, clay is a good adsorbent, which helps to remove toxins from the human body.
- Cinnamon is a well-known spice that is also not tolerated by most gastrointestinal tract parasites. To prevent infection with them, the spice is added to cereals, desserts and coffee. For treatment, it is consumed in a small dose (about 1/8 teaspoon) two to three times a day 30 minutes before meals for a month.
- Refined kerosene (dripped on a piece of refined sugar and eaten). You should start with 2 to 3 drops, gradually increasing the dosage to 1 tsp. The remedy is also taken in the morning, immediately after waking up. The course of treatment is one month.
