Today we will 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 paying proper attention to the diagnosis and treatment of this problem. Meanwhile, parasites that live in the human body cause great damage to his health and significantly worsen his 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 localization in the human body, clinical manifestations during infection. But they all have one thing in common: nutrition at the expense of the carrier. Particularly harmful are parasites that live in the gastrointestinal tract.
The most common of them are:
- Ocal worms that cause ascariasis. It is a common parasite (according to statistics, about 50 million cases of infection are diagnosed in the world every year). The habitat of worms in the human body is the small intestine. The length of an adult can reach over 40 cm.
- Hookworm 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 acts in the human liver. They are most common in young children.
- Wide tapeworm - tapeworm that can reach 10 meters. Its lifespan is up to 25 years. It lives in the small intestine.
- Pinworm is a small roundworm (less than 1 cm) that also parasitizes in the human gut.
- Toxocariums are helminths that cause a serious condition with allergy symptoms. These parasites often affect children between 1 and 4 years of age.
- Chain (beef and pork) - long (4-10 m) ribbons. If left untreated, adults turn 20 years old.
Infection with parasites often occurs due to lack of 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 danger of helminth eggs entering the body when poorly prepared animal products, especially meat, are used.
Another common route of infection is contact with pets, including kittens. It is important to remember that after communicating with them, you must 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 doctor prescribes special therapy, although many patients prefer to get rid of parasites in the body folk remedies.
Symptoms of infection
What are the signs that you should suspect that "uninvited guests" have appeared in the gastrointestinal tract and start looking for an appropriate way to treat them? Clinical manifestations largely depend on the stage of disease development, human characteristics and parasite types.
- recurrent bouts of nausea or vomiting;
- general weakness and increased fatigue;
- dizziness;
- a sharp change in weight (both weight loss and weight gain);
- discomfort and pain in the epigastric region;
- bowel disorder (diarrhea or constipation);
- deterioration of skin, nails and hair.
Parasites that infect the human body feed on its tissues and nutrients in the body. As a result, it does not receive the required amount of useful micro- and macroelements, which inevitably leads to a deterioration of the general condition. After conducting laboratory tests, you can confirm or deny the fact of parasite infection.
Treatment with folk remedies
Removal of parasites by folk remedies is based on the special action on them of certain substances, mostly of natural origin. Before starting such treatment, it would be helpful to consult your doctor about using this or that method.
Hilde Clark method
Hilda Clarke was a well-known physician and scientist specializing in parasitology. She believed that most of the known diseases that are difficult to treat are the result of infection with pathogenic organisms. It has therefore developed its own unique way of fighting human parasites, which has become known all over the world today.
The method consists in using a special complex of herbal remedies. It has three components:
- alcoholic tincture of unripe walnut bark (if necessary, it can be replaced by "pharmacy" balm of similar composition and active ingredients);
- wormwood (dry raw materials);
- Ground cloves, known as a fragrant spice and are sold in stores (they can be ground in a coffee grinder, grinder or spice plaster).
To make a tincture at home that removes parasites, you need green shells of 15 unripe walnuts. They are washed, poured into 0, 5 liters. vodka or medical alcohol, which must first be diluted to 45-50 °. The resulting composition must be infused in direct sunlight (for example, on the south 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 per drop every day. After 6 days, then you should take 2 teaspoons. The course of treatment is one year, although the death of the parasite occurs earlier.
Dry wormwood 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) raw materials;
- 2. (0, 4-0, 6 g), 4. (0, 6-0, 9 g), 6. (0, 8-1, 2 g), 8. (1-1, 5 g), 10. (1, 2-1, 8 g) and 12. (1, 4-2, 1).
After that, wormwood is taken as a prophylactic agent for a year in the minimum dose daily before the last meal (1, 4-2, 1 g).
Ground cloves should be drunk three times a day, half an hour before meals. The first day - half a gram, the second - 1 g and from 3 to 10 days - one and a half grams. After 10 days, it is taken once a week for a year to consolidate the effect.
Troichetka
Another way to get rid of parasites in the body by folk methods is to use another trio of plant components. It is adapted to the conditions of the middle zone, in which nuts do not grow, and unripe fruits are difficult to obtain. In this recipe their place is taken by tansy.
For treatment you will need:
- dry tansy - 100 g;
- dry wormwood - 25 g;
- cloves, ground - 50 g.
All ingredients should be mixed well and stored in a dry jar in a dark place. One dose of this mixture is 1. 75 grams. Tansy is quite toxic, so it is important to accurately determine the amount of medication to be taken, and this will require a pharmacy scale.
On the first day, the medicine is taken only in the morning, at least 30 minutes before meals. In the second - before breakfast and dinner. The third still - 3 times a day (before breakfast, lunch and dinner). The duration of treatment is usually only one week. Contraindications: gastric ulcer, erosive gastritis.
Alternative recipe for "triplets"
This is another fairly effective home remedy for parasite control. To prepare the drug it is necessary to take:
- cumin seeds - 1 part;
- marigold flowers ("medicinal marigold") ground - 2 parts;
- crushed rhizome of marsh calamus - 1 part.
All components must be mixed well. This natural preparation is used in the same dose and according to the same scheme as the classic 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. Various substances are used for this, of which the most effective and popular are:
- Food clay, white or blue-white (available at your pharmacy). Such antiparasitic therapy will be especially useful for patients with increased gastric acidity.
For treatment it is necessary to prepare a solution of clay in a glass of water. After mixing well, the preparation should settle until the precipitate settles to the bottom and looks like milk. Such a folk remedy is taken twice a day - in the morning 20 minutes before meals and in the evening before bedtime. 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 remove toxins from the human body.
- Cinnamon is a well-known spice that is also not tolerated by most parasites in the gastrointestinal tract. To prevent infection with them, the spice is added to cereals, desserts, 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). Start with 2-3 drops, gradually increasing the dose to 1 teaspoon. The medicine is also taken in the morning, immediately after waking up. The course of treatment is one month.
- Herbs such as wormwood, tansy and yarrow; including ready-made fees sold at the pharmacy. They should be prepared and consumed in accordance with the instructions on the package.
Treatment with folk remedies should be approached with great responsibility. Some methods have contraindications, such as pregnancy. You should be careful when using alcoholic tinctures. People who are allergic to certain types of plants and have their own individual intolerance are in a special risk group.
With the right approach, you can rid your body of parasites without resorting to the help of pharmacological drugs. If the condition is not alleviated, it is necessary to consult with your doctor and choose the traditional method of treatment.
