Human parasites – cleansing of the body

Parasitic cleansing is carried out on a diet or dietary supplements designed to detoxify the human body and release it from parasitic infections. The aim of the purification is to carry out a process of prescription drugs.

What are parasites?

Parasites are organisms that infect the body of another living being and feed on them to survive. While some parasites do not cause any symptoms in their hosts, others can cause severe diseases. Parasitic infections occur when parasites grow, multiply or attack organ systems that cause host diseases.

Some typical human parasitic infections may include:

• toxoplasmosis
• lamblosis
• pyramidone
• latisticosis

Symptoms

Most parasite infections come from eating water or contaminated food. Traveling abroad can also expose you to tropical parasites. Depending on the parasite and the system it affects, symptoms of parasitic infections may include:

• abdominal pain
• stomach cramps
• nausea
• vomiting
• dehydration
• weight loss
• Pyrexia
• gases
• diarrhoea
• constipation
• stomach upset
• flu-like symptoms

Diagnosis

Parasitic infection is most often diagnosed by a faeces sample. Your doctor may have to test the feces more than once before you get a positive result for parasites.

Treatment

Once you know what type of parasitic infection you have, you can choose how to treat it. Some parasitic infections disappear themselves, especially if your immune system is healthy and you eat a balanced diet.

In case of parasites that do not disappear alone, your doctor usually prescribes oral medicines. This treatment is generally effective and proven in operation.

Some people choose natural means to cleanse their bodies of parasites instead of conventional treatments, although these drugs are not proven.

Parasite cleanses home remedies
Some natural health doctors say that a large percentage of the population has parasites and that everyone should regularly clean themselves of them. Some even say it should be done once a year. There's no research to support this.

Nevertheless, many natural medicine doctors recommend the removal of human parasite infections with herbal supplements such as:

• anise
• berbrin
• black nut
• carnation oil
• grapefruit seed extract
• fur
• oregano oil

There are other naturally plant-based drugs that remove parasites from different systems of the body, including intestinal, liver and other parts of the gastrointestinal tract. The doctor should choose delicate herbs for detoxification. Some herbal detoxification supplements can cause acute side effects or interact with medicines you are already taking. Ask your doctor before starting any additional detoxification program.

Some herbal detoxic programs last two weeks, two weeks off. Others can last even a month. It is important to consult your doctor about how long you should take antiparasitic supplements.

Many herbs and medicines interact with medicines. If you are taking any medicines, talk to your doctor and pharmacist before starting.

Parasitic diet

When cleansing parasites, it is important to observe a balanced diet rich in nutrients and poor in refined sugars and processed foods. Fiber is particularly important because it maintains regular bowel movements during cleaning.

Diet rich in nutrients is also important for strengthening the immune system because parasites are removed from the body. Natural doctors say that combined with a healthy dose of probiotics, it will help protect your body from another attack.

Garlic, honey, pumpkin seeds and papaya seeds are advertised as antiparasitic agents to be included in the diet. Some practicing natural medicine go one step further and recommend a diet without grain, without sugar. Others recommend limiting fruit intake to further reduce sugars in the diet.

What Research Says

One study suggests that probiotic therapy can help control ongoing infections with parasites.

Another study indicates that little is known about the effects of natural compounds on parasitic infections. The authors suggest that natural medicines can be effective. However, it is not known enough about side effects or whether remedies can favour resistant parasite strains.

Despite the lack of studies, dietary recommendations, which consist in cleansing parasites, are generally good rules to be followed in order to supplement any treatment recommended by your doctor.

Side effects and safety

Parasitic cleansing can also worsen autoimmune symptoms or other chronic diseases. Purifying supplements may also be harmful to people with anaemia. You should always talk to your doctor before starting a new supplement.

Avoid starting parasite cleansing if you have constipation. Before you start taking cleansing supplements, make sure you have a lot of fiber in your diet and regular bowel movements. In the case of intestinal parasite cleansing, this is particularly important because the parasites in the intestines must be able to leave the body during purification.

Especially a black nut can potentially cause mutations in DNA. Pregnant women shouldn't take it. It can also cause rapid bowel emptying, so breast-feeding mothers should avoid this.

Summary

Natural cleansing of parasites can be effective. If you think you may have a parasitic infection, consult your doctor to discuss the possibility of getting rid of them. Talk to your doctor about your options. It may turn out that conventional parasitic therapy under the care of a doctor is for you.

Finally, find out if you have parasites and what they are before you start purifying. Purification, before you know it, can do more harm in the long run than good.
