Parasites- These are the simplest types of bacteria that live off the nutrients of another organism, parasitizing it.They feed on ready-made organic materials produced by others.
There are currently more than twenty types of parasitic life forms living in the bodies of animals or humans.
All of them can enter our body and cause many diseases and infections.Very often, such bacteria are found in children, since they do not have such high immunity and they have a lot of contact with animals and some dirty things.
Do you remember how a small child often puts everything in his mouth?
These items may contain dangerous parasites.This article explains the classification of parasites in the human body, the treatment of 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?
Simple bacteria are found in the human body and on its skin;they can be unicellular or multicellular.
Parasites that live in the body are called ectoparasites.This type includes bedbugs, lice and similar scabies 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 are more difficult to get rid of than external parasites.Medical science has already found many ways to get rid of them and has a lot of experience in treating parasites in the human body.
Each of the parasites has its own ideal place in the human body, where all the conditions for the parasitic lifestyle, i.e. the nutrients necessary for growth and reproduction, are provided.Some of them may move as they grow.
Endogenous parasites are most commonly found in the intestines, muscles, blood, lungs, heart, and liver.Some species even live in nerve tissue.Ectopic parasites live on the skin.
How do parasites get into the body?
First trip- 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.The meat of animals is very often infected with parasites, so people do not eat it raw.
Second- relationship and household.In this case, the parasites spread from humans, through household objects or animals.Very often, infectious bacteria are carried by street animals - dogs, cats, birds and rats.
Third- blood spread by mosquitoes.In our country and many other regions, this rarely happens;infected mosquitoes most often live in hot countries.
The fourth is the independent entry of individual insects into the human body.They chew through the skin, penetrate the muscle tissue or the blood, and then go to where the best living conditions are for them.
What symptoms can be observed in the presence of parasites?
Parasites can cause completely different symptoms in the human body - from insomnia, which often occurs unnoticed, to skin growths.For example, ectoparasites often cause skin lesions and scabies.Endoparasites living in the lungs often cause a cough.If they are in your intestines, you may experience constipation, vomiting, or diarrhea.
But the general signs of the presence of parasites in humans are: insomnia, general fatigue, headache and sometimes allergic reactions.Folk remedies are very often used, but they are not always pleasant, for example, not everyone can drink a glass of sauerkraut juice against worms.
Let's look at the symptoms of different types of parasites:
- The most common parasites of humans are worms or roundworms.They cause intestinal upsets and stomachaches, irritability, insomnia and anxiety attacks, sometimes dizziness.They are fairly easy to detect and can be seen in the stool or test positive for worm eggs;
- Then 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 the stool;
- If someone has worms, they may experience 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.
The parasite that infects you can cause vitamin deficiency, general weakness and reduced immunity in both adults and children.The presence of such a parasite in children is very dangerous, as it greatly slows down their development.It is very often difficult to get rid of parasites in the body, as they tend to adapt to their environment and do not want to leave their usual home.
How do we treat parasites?
To get rid of parasites, you must first consult a doctor.He prescribes a specific drug or other, more natural remedy.
There is also treatment with folk remedies, but it is recommended to do it in symbiosis with drugs.
Medical treatment
Doctors have long found effective treatments against parasites in humans.
The most effective and widespread drugs for getting rid of pests are drugs based on synthetic components.All are very effective in treating worms and various roundworms.
Some medications come in tablet form, while others come in other forms, such as liquids.Only the doctor determines the dose;it cannot be done alone without side effects.In addition, the drugs differ depending on the age of the patients for whom they are intended.
Another way to cure parasites has appeared in the modern world.It's called Oxygen, and it came out relatively recently;it can only be performed in hospitals under the supervision of a doctor.First, the patient is cleaned with an enema, and 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, in contrast to the drug method.
Parasites: quick treatment with folk remedies
Various parasites in the human body can be removed by folk remedies;even some doctors recommend some natural remedies to get rid of such pests.
The most famous remedy for the treatment of parasites is pumpkin seeds.They contain many nutrients that have a beneficial effect on humans and their intestinal microflora, but are harmful to protozoan pests.In order to fully recover, eat 20 grams of pumpkin seeds in the morning on an empty stomach, then drink a laxative 30-40 minutes later.
Vegetable oils can be used as natural laxatives, the most common being castor oil.
To treat parasites with folk remedies in adults, anthelmintic teas are used, followed by colon cleansing with enemas.To prepare the decoction, you can take wormwood, cloves, celandine or tansy.All of them have a pungent and bitter taste, which makes the intestinal tract unsuitable for pests.
However, be careful with the herbs you use, many of which are off-limits to pregnant women.
Diet to prevent parasites
Anyone who has ever encountered the presence of parasites knows the importance of rehabilitation and prevention.For this purpose, the attending physician often prescribes a special diet.Separate meals are recommended, where carbohydrates and proteins are eaten separately from each other.Because if we eat them together, the stomach does not receive an accurate signal about what needs to be digested and what enzymes are needed for this.
Incompletely digested food is an excellent source of nutrition for parasites, so they can continue to live and develop.
For example, meat and legumes should not be eaten with potatoes, pasta or bread.It is better to combine them with vegetables.If you want to eat carbohydrates and protein, you should take a 2-hour break between them.
Can't give up your favorite sandwiches?
Eat them with grilled vegetables.Eat porridge often, they clean the body perfectly.
Cleansing the body
To cleanse and expel unwanted parasites from the body, some plants that can often be found in pharmacies, markets or supermarkets will help.
For the first method, you will need green walnut shells.If you live in a hot country, you can probably find walnut trees and collect unripe fruits from them.Take 15 walnuts, remove the green skin and pour vodka.Leave it for a month in a dark, dry place.Then dilute a drop of tincture in half a glass of water and drink it.
Gradually increase the dose by one drop every day for seven days.After that, gradually increase the intake to 2 teaspoons, take the medicine several times a day.Then continue to take 2 teaspoons of tincture twice a day for one year.This is a rather long cleansing course, but very effective.
An easier method is to use clove seeds.They should be ground into a powder form.Just take one and a half teaspoons of this powder.Gradually reduce the dose over ten days, at the end of the period you should reach a teaspoon.
A variety of freshly squeezed juices help cleanse the bowels.For example, carrots, cucumbers, lemons, beets, apples - when consumed on an empty stomach, these fruit juices create a certain environment in the stomach and remove parasites from the body.
