Parasites can turn a person's life into a real hell.When parasites appear in the body, a person begins to feel various unpleasant symptoms: weakness, nausea, stomach discomfort and others.
To return to good health, it is necessary to eliminate parasites in the body: this can be done with the help of recipes or traditional medicines.Today we will look at the most effective ways to cleanse the body.From the following article you will learn how to get rid of parasites in the body.
Helminths and worms
Helminths or worms is the common name for parasitic multicellular worm-like organisms that live in the human body.Most worms are found in the intestines, feeding on food from the outside, but some can also be found in other internal organs.In most cases, people are unaware that they have parasites in their body.
Moreover, the parasite chooses not only the intestines as its habitat, but also other internal organs - the liver, gallbladder and others.Helminth infection is asymptomatic until a certain time and does not cause any particular inconvenience.However, despite this, it should be understood that infection with worms or helminths can cause serious disorders of the nervous and digestive systems, skin diseases and allergies, as well as cause a decrease in metabolism and premature aging of the body.According to some scientists, the presence of helminths slows down the treatment process of many diseases.Parasite eggs enter the human body through dirty hands, unwashed fruits and vegetables, contaminated fish and meat, dirty water, blood-sucking insects and even through contact with soil.To prevent the appearance of parasites in the body, you need to pay special attention to preventive measures when communicating with pets - dogs and cats.
What is helminths and why is it dangerous?
In total, there are hundreds of species of parasitic worms in nature that are dangerous to humans.Parasites can enter the body in different ways.According to this parameter, they can be divided into three main groups: those who live in the external environment - land, water;penetrates into the human body through intermediaries - pets;enters the human body through contact with others.So, there are many chances for a person to contract parasites.For example, they can enter our body from pets - cats and dogs, through unwashed hands, unboiled water, uncooked meat, etc.
There are two main groups of parasitic worms - roundworms and flatworms.Round species include species such as pinworms and roundworms.Flatworms are divided into tapeworms and trematodes, respectively.Typically, flatworm infections are the most dangerous and the most difficult to treat.
Helminthiasis or worm infection in humans is an extremely unpleasant disease.It leads to intoxication and exhaustion of the body, weakening the body's defenses.Therefore, helminths need to be treated carefully.
The impact of parasites on the body
Parasites cause damage to individual organs.Mainly the digestive organs, where they live.However, parasites also poison the entire body with waste products and interfere with normal food absorption.The result of long-term coexistence with parasites can be serious chronic diseases.Chronic - because the cause of these diseases is not eliminated, but only the disease itself caused by the parasite is treated.Parasites are especially dangerous for children.In some cases, parasites living in a child's body can cause: delayed development (both physical and mental), delayed puberty and memory problems.
In addition, parasites also eat trace elements necessary for the human body.For example, silicon is an extremely important element for health, participating in the body's absorption of more than 70 types of mineral salts and vitamins.
Signs of parasitic infection
In most cases, helminthiasis, that is, parasitic infection of the body, is characterized by problems in the functioning of the digestive system, general weakness and anxiety.But similar signs can indicate other diseases.By the way, teeth grinding at night, can also be considered a symptom of worm infection, which sometimes occurs due to improper bite shape, ENT diseases or neurological disorders.And sharp weight loss in patients with worm infection has been observed in severe stages.In most cases, helminthiasis, that is, parasitic infection of the body, is characterized by problems in the functioning of the digestive system, general weakness and anxiety.
The danger of helminths lies in the fact that they have the ability to camouflage very well.However, you should know what symptoms indicate that you are infected with this or that type of worm.
Available signs:
- roundworms: temperature increases significantly;the appearance of dry or wet cough;skin rash;sleep disorders and teeth grinding;the appearance of sharp pain in the right side;decreased appetite;problems with stool;
- pinworm: itchy feeling in the anal area;loss of appetite;the appearance of dry mouth;frequent urge to go to the toilet, sometimes incorrectly;the appearance of headaches;sleep disorders;the presence of fissures in the anus;urinary incontinence at night.
Preparatory stages necessary to remove parasites from the body
Before using any method of removing parasites from the body, one must establish a healthy diet (preferably vegetarian, without fatty and heavy foods), adhere to a light diet for 1-2 weeks, with lots of raw vegetables, fresh fruits, fresh juices, without refined foods and sugar.Before using any method of removing parasites from the body, one must establish a healthy diet
It is necessary to follow the correct drinking regimen - drink clean drinking water (preferably distilled water) that is not mineralized.
Immediately before the procedure to remove parasites, it is necessary to undergo cleansing sessions of the kidneys, intestines and liver.
In parallel with cleaning parasites, it is recommended to clean the intestines with an enema - especially if a person suffers from constipation.For an enema, you can take a decoction of wormwood, yarrow, tansy, calendula, chamomile, adding them to cool water.
Antihelminthic drugs, types and principles of action
In the past, herbal remedies were used as anthelmintics.For example, it has long been known that plants such as ferns, marigolds and pigweed are useful in treating parasites in the human body.Eating foods like pumpkin seeds and garlic can also help treat helminths.
But in severe cases, these remedies for worms and parasites will most likely be ineffective.In addition, they usually only affect intestinal parasitic helminths, while some of them can live in other internal organs, such as the liver, bile ducts and blood vessels.Fortunately, the modern pharmaceutical industry has developed many effective synthetic agents.So now the question of how to kill worms with tablets largely depends on the choice of one drug or another.
There are deworming medications specifically designed to treat helminthiasis caused by roundworms.As a rule, these anthelmintic drugs are the safest and have the fewest side effects.There are also anthelmintic medications to remove tapeworms and trematodes from the body.But many antihelminthic drugs do not act on a specific type of parasite, but on many groups of parasites at the same time.Such deworming tablets are called broad-spectrum dewormers.There are deworming medications specifically designed to treat helminthiasis caused by roundworms.
Compared to herbal preparations, synthetic dewormers work more quickly and effectively.In addition, the principle of action of most modern anthelmintic drugs is not to destroy parasites, but to paralyze them.This is achieved thanks to special substances in antihelminthics that block the activity of the worm's neuromuscular system.Therefore, they do not die in the intestines, poisoning the body with their decomposition products, but separate from the intestinal wall and are excreted with feces.However, it should be noted that these deworming drugs are only effective against adult parasites.They are not effective against larvae.Therefore, after the first course of medication, another course should be used a few weeks later to kill the remaining worms.
The use of broad-spectrum anthelmintics also makes sense because it is often difficult to determine the type of parasite.In addition, in many cases the body is infected with helminths of all kinds.
The main dosage form of anthelmintic drugs is tablet form.There are also dosage forms such as suspension and rectal suppositories.The suspension is more suitable for children who have difficulty swallowing or chewing a large pill.
Suppositories have minimal side effects, but their effectiveness is limited.Additionally, they are powerless against parasites that live outside the intestines.Deworming tablets are often made from the following compounds: ethanolamine;salicylamide;pyrazinoisoquinoline;benzimidazole.

Is it possible to remove parasites at all?
Modern parasitology does not know of a single drug that can be fatal to all types of helminths.Meanwhile, it is not uncommon for a person to be infected with not just one but many types of parasites.You can choose a reliable medicine only after determining the type of helminth that has infected the body.
Can helminths be treated at home?Of course you can.The only way is to use home remedies that are effective against the existing parasite.Moreover, even if in the morning stool there are paralyzed helminths from the body, this does not guarantee that it can be completely eliminated.Only laboratory testing can provide accurate confirmation of complete cure.
You can get rid of parasites with one pill only in cases where there are many types of parasites.Helminths that can settle in the bile ducts and liver require more complex drug treatment.And removing a giant ball in the lungs or liver, where Echinococci live, can only be done surgically.If in this case conservative therapy with strong poisons is used, the dead parasite will poison the "host" body with decomposition products.You should not self-treat if you detect a parasite in your body or suspect it may be present in your body.
And another important factor is that the parasitic eggs are preserved, carrying new life in the form of larvae.This is inherently dangerous due to internal reinfection or self-infection if basic hygiene rules are not followed.Poisons that are equally effective against both adults and larvae may be ineffective against some types of helminths.And it is even more naive to expect a complete cure using folk remedies such as garlic and pumpkin seeds.
Conclude:You should not self-treat if you detect a parasite in your body or suspect it may be present in your body.Only a specialist can professionally and competently carry out the necessary treatment and monitor its effectiveness.
If parasites are not detected, then the best prevention of infection against them is to thoroughly wash hands, vegetables and fruits, reliably process fish and meat and mercilessly fight against egg carriers - flies and cockroaches.It's great if children also get used to being clean.For complete prevention, you can chew pumpkin seeds from time to time.This folk remedy should be used in moderation so as not to cause the formation of fecal stones - bezoars.
Worm prevention
At least 100 types of worms can exist inside a person.To avoid infection, basic precautions must be taken.It must be followed even after the worm has been removed.
Prevention includes the following measures:
- wash hands, food cannot be cooked;
- Cook meat and fish properly;
- Avoid drinking water of unknown origin;
- proper nutrition.
When an animal lives with a person, it must be given deworming medication.Then it's better to take the medicine yourself.After all, it is not known where worm larvae can live.
Parasitic infections can be asymptomatic!Therefore, to know if you or your child is infected with helminths, you should get tested.However, it is also possible to identify worms at home: to do this, make an enema and carefully examine the stool: if you notice white worms, you should immediately start treating them.It is especially important to remove parasites from the child, because the child's body is very sensitive to them.
