parasites- These are the simplest types of bacteria that live off the nutrients of another organism, parasitizing it.They feed on ready-made organic matter produced by others.
Currently, there are more than twenty species of parasitic life forms that can live in the body of animals or humans.
All of them can penetrate our body and cause a large number of diseases and infections.Very often such bacteria are found in children, since they do not have such a high level of immunity and have a lot of contact with animals and some dirty things.
Remember that toddler often puts everything in his mouth?
These items may contain dangerous parasites.This article explains the classification of parasites in the human body, how to treat infectious diseases, and what you should do to prevent harmful bacteria from entering your body.
Parasitic bacteria in the human body, in which organs can they live?
There are simple bacteria in the human body and on its skin;they can be unicellular and multicellular.
Parasites that live on the body are called ectoparasites.This type includes bed bugs, lice, and similar scab pathogens.Others are called endoparasites because they live inside the human body.These include amoebas, worms and insect larvae.
The latter are the most dangerous, while the former are simply unpleasant.
Internal parasites often cause serious diseases, and it is more difficult to get rid of external parasites.Medicine has already found many ways to get rid of them, and also has extensive experience in the treatment of parasites in the human body.
Each of the parasites has its ideal place in the human body, where there are all the conditions for a parasitic lifestyle, that is, the necessary nutrients for growth and reproduction.Some of them can move as they grow.
Most often, endogenous parasites can be found in the intestines, muscles, blood, lungs, heart and liver.Some species even live in nervous tissues.Ectopic parasites live on the skin.
How can parasites enter the body?
First way- This is the entry of bacteria into the body with food and water.Sometimes it is infected or contaminated, so microorganisms start to multiply there.Insects such as flies and cockroaches also carry many harmful bacteria.Some foods are contaminated to begin with – raw fish or unprocessed meat.Very often the meat from livestock is infected with parasites, so people do not eat it raw.
Second- contact-household.In this case, the parasites are transmitted by humans, through household objects or animals.Very often infectious bacteria are carried by street animals - dogs, cats, birds and rats.
third- blood transmission by mosquitoes.In our country and in many other regions, this rarely happens;most commonly infected mosquitoes live in hot countries.
The fourth is the independent entry of some insects into the human body.They gnaw the skin and penetrate the muscle tissue or blood, then go to where the best living conditions are for them.
What symptoms are observed in the presence of parasites?
Parasites in the human body can cause completely different symptoms - from insomnia, which often goes unnoticed, to skin formations.For example, ectoparasites often cause skin lesions and scabies.Endoparasites that live in the lungs often cause a cough.If they are in the intestines, you may experience constipation, vomiting, or diarrhea.
But the general signs of the presence of parasites in humans are the following: insomnia, general fatigue, headache and sometimes allergic reactions.Very often people use folk remedies, but they are not always pleasant, for example, not everyone can drink a glass of sauerkraut juice for worms.
Let's look at the symptoms of different types of parasites:
- The most common parasites for humans are tapeworms or roundworms.They cause intestinal upset and stomach pains, irritability, insomnia and anxiety attacks, and sometimes vertigo.They are relatively easy to detect and can be seen in the stool or with a positive test for worm eggs;
- Next comes a rather dangerous parasite - tapeworm.It often causes abdominal discomfort or pain, diarrhea, voracious appetite (eating a lot without gaining weight), liver pain, and worms in your stool;
- If a person has pinworms, he may notice loss of appetite, insomnia, nervousness and itching in the anus.
How dangerous are parasites?
They disrupt the functioning of organs, cause inflammatory processes in tissues and destroy them.They produce toxic substances that destroy the body.
A pest that parasitizes you can cause a lack of vitamins, general weakness and reduced immunity in both adults and children.The presence of such a parasite in children is very dangerous, as it significantly slows down their development.It is very often difficult to get rid of parasites in the body, since they tend to adapt to the environment and do not want to leave their familiar home.
How to treat parasites?
To get rid of parasites, you should first consult a doctor.He will prescribe a specific drug or another, more natural remedy.
There is also treatment with folk remedies, but it is recommended to be carried out in symbiosis with drugs.
Medical treatment
Doctors have long since discovered an effective treatment against parasites in humans.
The most effective and widespread drugs to eliminate pests are those based on synthetic components.All of them are very effective in treating worms and various roundworms.
Some medications come in tablet form, while others come in other forms, such as liquid.Only the doctor determines the dosage;it is not possible to do it yourself without side effects.Also, the drugs differ depending on the age of the patients for whom they are intended.
In the modern world, another way to treat people with parasites has appeared.It's called oxygen, and it appeared relatively recently;it is only carried out in hospitals under the supervision of a doctor.First, the patient is cleansed with an enema, then oxygen is administered through a tube.After filling the stomach and rectum with oxygen, the parasites die.With this method, the cured patient does not get any side symptoms, unlike the medication method.
Parasites: quick treatment with folk remedies
Various parasites in the human body can be removed using folk remedies;even some doctors recommend some natural remedies to get rid of such pests.
The most well-known remedy for parasites is pumpkin seeds.They contain many nutrients that are beneficial to humans and their intestinal microflora, but are harmful to protozoan pests.To fully heal, eat 20 grams of pumpkin seeds in the morning on an empty stomach, and drink a laxative after 30-40 minutes.
Plant oils can be used as natural laxatives, with castor oil being the most common.
To treat parasites with folk remedies in adults, anthelmintic teas are used, followed by colon cleansing with an enema.To prepare a decoction, you can take wormwood, cloves, yarrow or tansy.All of them have a sharp and bitter taste, which is why they make the environment in the intestine unsuitable for pests.
However, be careful with the herbs you use, many of them are prohibited for pregnant women.
Anti-parasite diet
Anyone who has ever dealt with the presence of parasites knows how important rehabilitation and prevention are.For this purpose, the attending physician often prescribes a special diet.They recommend split feeding, where you take carbohydrates and proteins separately from each other.Because if we eat them together, the stomach does not receive an accurate signal of what needs to be digested and what enzymes are needed for it.
Incompletely digested food is an excellent way to feed the parasites, so they continue to live and develop.
For example, meat and pulses should not be eaten with potatoes, pasta or bread.It is better to combine them with vegetables.If you want to eat carbohydrates and proteins, you should take a 2-hour break between them.

Cleansing the body
To cleanse yourself and expel unwanted parasites from the body, some plants that can often be found on sale in pharmacies, markets or supermarkets will help you.
For the first method, you will need the skins of the green walnuts.If you live in a hot region, you can probably find walnut trees and harvest unripe fruit from them.Take 15 nuts, remove the green skin from them and pour vodka.Leave to infuse for a month in a dark, dry place.Then dilute one drop of tincture in half a glass of water and drink.
Gradually increase the dose by one drop each day for seven days.Then gradually increase the intake to 2 teaspoons, take the medicine several times a day.Then continue to take 2 tablespoons of the tincture, twice a day, for a year.This is quite a long course of cleaning, but very effective.
The easier way is to use clove seeds.They should be ground to a powder state.Just take one and a half teaspoon of this powder.Over the course of ten days, gradually reduce the dose, and at the end of the period you should reach one teaspoon.
A variety of freshly squeezed juices will help cleanse the bowels.For example, carrot, cucumber, lemon, beetroot, apple - all these juices, when consumed on an empty stomach, create a certain environment in the stomach and remove parasites from the body.
