Parasites in the human body

The general effect of parasites on the body is manifested by weakness, fatigue, headache, insomnia, which indicates intoxication.

How to get rid of parasites

What are parasites?These are animals, plants or microorganisms that live at the expense of their owner.They feed on its cells or tissues, using vitamins and nutrients that were supposed to be used to build the host's body cells.Parasites also poison the body with substances that they release during vital processes.

In medicine, only multicellular and protozoan parasites are called human parasites, while viruses and bacteria are classified as pathogens.Let's look at what types of parasites are in the human body, the symptoms of their presence and treatment with folk remedies.

Types of parasites in the human body and where they live

Both protozoa and multicellular parasites can be found in the human body or on its surface.If the parasite lives on the skin it is called an ectoparasite;this type includes lice, bedbugs and the causative agent of scabies.Endoparasites are protozoa (giardia, amoebae), helminths (worms, worms) or insect larvae that can live in human organs and tissues.

Each parasite develops in a certain part of the human body, where the conditions for its life are most suitable.Some parasites, depending on the stage of development, migrate (move) throughout the body from one organ to another.Ectoparasites live on the skin, while endogenous parasites are found in the intestines, muscles, blood, heart, lungs, liver and even nervous tissues.

A person can become infected with parasites in several ways.This is due to the development cycle of a particular type of parasite.Therefore, there are several ways in which the parasite can enter the host's body.Through contaminated food and water.Furthermore, in some cases it becomes contaminated during storage and preparation;Flies and cockroaches also contribute to this.And sometimes food can be contaminated from the very beginning, for example when using poorly heat-treated fish or meat from infected animals for cooking.

The family-contact route occurs when parasites are transmitted from one person to another, through household objects or pets.

Transmissible route, when parasites are transported by blood-sucking insects.

Some larvae of parasites, once on human skin, are able to gnaw it themselves and enter the body.For example, the human skin horsefly larva, which causes dermatobiasis.

Symptoms of infection of the human body by parasites

Symptoms that occur during infection can be varied and are often associated with the location of the parasite.Therefore, ectoparasites cause damage to the skin.If the parasite lives in the lungs, the patient may experience coughing and shortness of breath.When parasites are detected in the intestine, digestive disorders, constipation, diarrhea, vomiting and many others occur.

The general effect of parasites on the body is manifested by weakness, fatigue, headache, insomnia, which indicates intoxication.Allergic reactions often occur, leading to dermatitis, skin rashes and even bronchial asthma.

Parasites in the intestineThey use nutrients from food for their growth and development.Because of this, the human body begins to experience a deficiency.This is especially dangerous for children, as their growth slows and their physical and mental development is impaired.

Parasites adapt well, they are able to live for years in the same organism and their eggs and larvae have considerable resistance to the environment.In the digestive organs, to protect themselves, parasites can secrete special substances that inactivate enzymes and interrupt the process of digestion of food.Therefore, in a patient with parasites in the intestine, the symptoms often resemble diseases of the digestive system.

Why are helminths dangerous?

Helminths are worms, they can be small in size or reach a length of 7-10 meters.Sometimes the development cycle of helminths is such that a person becomes infected with them again.The first part of the cycle takes place in the intestine, and in case of repeated infections, the eggs penetrate the muscles, lungs, liver and kidneys.

The most common helminths found in humans are parasites of the intestines, gallbladder, ducts and liver and cause:

• ascariasis, the larvae migrate through the liver into the lungs and enter the intestine again, where the adult individual develops;
• opisthorchiasis, which most often affects the liver, can lead to cancer or cirrhosis;
• cestodosis: infection with tapeworms, which occurs through the consumption of poorly thermally processed meat and fish;
• Tapeworms live a long time and reach enormous sizes.Very dangerous is the pork tapeworm, whose eggs penetrate the blood vessels and can migrate to the muscles and brain;
• schistosomiasis, is caused by parasites and flatworms;
• toxocariasis, difficult to detect, can affect the eyes and nervous tissues, often causing allergic reactions;
• Echinococcosis - Echinococcus parasitizes the liver and lungs.

There are also less common diseases.These are trichinosis, fascioliasis, enterobiasis, echinostomosis and others.

There are several ways to treat parasites in the human body using folk remedies.Some are used against specific parasites, others help eliminate an entire group of parasitic infections, and some help cleanse organs and systems.Let's take a closer look at how to get rid of specific parasites in the body using folk remedies.

How to get rid of protozoa and protozoan parasites

The most common protozoan parasites are:

• nematode;
• amoebae, lamblia, blastocysts, balantids, leishmania and other parasites in the intestine;
• Trypanosomes, pathogens of malaria and Babesia, are found in the blood;
• in the genitourinary system - Trichomonas, infection occurs through sexual contact;
• in the heart, liver, brain and eyes - toxoplasma (the infection occurs more often in cats, affects nervous tissue and causes early abortions), trypanosomes, Naegleria Fowler, acanthamoeba.

It has been noticed that pests really don't like chili peppers and herbs, so if you cook food, seasoning it with onions, horseradish, garlic, and use cinnamon and cloves in baking, this can help in the fight against pests.

How to quickly get rid of parasites in the liver and body, at home

Parasites, according to medical parasitology, are any creatures that live at the expense of their host.

The exceptions are viruses and bacteria.

Parasites are divided into protozoa and helminths.

Protozoa cause giardiasis, toxoplasmosis, malaria, trichomoniasis and other diseases.Helminths are a source of ascariasis, echinococcosis, enterobiasis and other diseases.

The properties of harmful microorganisms include the following:

• complete dependence on the owner;
• threat to human health and normal functioning;
• close bond with the owner for a certain period of time.

Types of parasitic organisms

There are usually two types of parasites present in the human body:

• roundworms are roundworms up to 40 centimeters long.Adults live in the small intestine and pass through it silently;their lifespan is one year;
• broad tapeworm - tapeworm or tapeworm.They live in the human intestine and live up to 25 years.

Sometimes giardia, staphylococci, streptococci and pinworms are found.

How does the infection happen?

1. Drinking contaminated tap water.The size of some types of parasites allows them to pass through a normal filter.
2. Dirty or unwashed fruits and vegetables (especially exotic) contribute to the infection.
3. Contact with pets.Infection is possible even if the animal is at a distance of five meters (parasites are transmitted through saliva and air).
4. Blood-sucking insects are carriers of harmful microorganisms.
5. Some types of parasites are transmitted through airborne droplets or handshakes.
6. Contaminated meat products that have not undergone high-quality heat treatment become the cause of infection.
7. The main source of parasites is raw fish.

Symptoms and signs

Parasites spread throughout the body through the circulatory and lymphatic systems.They can be found in any organ.Typically, they accumulate in the intestines, liver, bile ducts and kidneys.

The main signs of the presence of harmful microorganisms in the body include the following:

• intestinal dysfunction: a person suffers from frequent constipation or diarrhea;
• stomach and intestinal discomfort, possible bloating and flatulence;
• strong weight loss, at the same time there is an increase in appetite (sometimes severe obesity occurs);
• decreased immunity;
• a feeling of constant tiredness, anxiety, and a person begins to feel depressed;

• yellowing of the whites of the eyes;
• bad breath;
• dizziness;
• bruises under the eyes;
• hair and nails become brittle;
• the patient has problems with the skin: acne, dermatosis, dermatitis;jams appear at the corners of the mouth and cracks on the heels.

How to recognize

1. It is necessary to perform a stool test to detect worm eggs.It is recommended to repeat this analysis 2-3 times, since the defecation process may coincide with the moment when the parasites have not yet laid their eggs.
2. A blood test to check for antibodies the body produces to kill parasites.This method shows results only in the later stages of the disease.

Preparing for cleaning

A few days before the body is freed from parasites, you should switch to a diet that facilitates the functioning of the gastrointestinal tract.

1. It is necessary to reduce the diet of meat products.
2. Eat more fiber-rich vegetables.
3. Increase the content of vegetables, dairy products, seeds, seaweed, greens and fruits in your diet.It is believed that parasites cannot tolerate red and green foods.

Cleaning at home

The first method is to cleanse the body with drugs.Medicines must be prescribed by your doctor.

The drugs have a strong toxic effect and have a number of contraindications.After treatment, it is worth taking a course to strengthen the immune system.

   Pumpkin seeds should be sprinkled with salted water, then heated in a pan or fried in a small amount of vegetable oil, adding salt.The treat is consumed regardless of the meal.

Complications and consequences

Parasites negatively affect the host.They gradually poison the body with waste products and reduce human immunity.

After cleaning harmful microorganisms, the following reactions are possible:

• allergy;
• immunodeficiency;
• decreased hemoglobin levels;
• chronic diseases of organs in which harmful microorganisms are found.

Parasites have a negative impact on the condition of children.

They cause delays in physical and mental development, memory impairment and delayed sexual development.

Who should not be purified?

Pests cannot be removed at home in the following situations:

• patients with heart disease (history of heart attack, stroke);
• for oncological tumors;
• during exacerbation of chronic diseases;
• patients with acute renal and hepatic failure;
• people suffering from ulcers, gastritis;
• during pregnancy and breastfeeding;
• for colds.

Pests cause many problems and harm the owner's health.A person can live with harmful microorganisms for many years and not even realize it.
