Statistics show that almost a third of the population is infected with parasites. Therefore, everyone should know how to eliminate worms without compromising health, as parasitic infection is the cause of many chronic diseases. In addition, worms in humans cause intoxication of the body with worm waste. However, many people are unaware of the existence of parasites in their own body, and some do not consider it a serious health threat.
Helminth eggs can enter the human body along with water and food. Raw water, unwashed fruits and vegetables, undercooked meat with blood, sushi, lard with streaks are all potential sources of infection. Unwashed hands and walking barefoot on the floor also pose a risk of infection.
Based on the above, the conclusion suggests that parasites are a problem that requires close attention. So if you are infected, understanding how to deworm a person will help you stay healthy.
Parasite infestation detection
Like any other disease, helminthiasis has its own symptoms. These include:
- chronic or frequent stool disorder - constipation or diarrhea;
- blood in the stool;
- swelling;
- nausea, vomiting;
- abdominal pain;
- nervous excitability, irritability, chronic fatigue;
- dyspnea;
- itchy skin around the anus;
- allergic reactions - rashes, cough, rhinitis, neurodermatitis, bronchial asthma;
- frequent headaches or dizziness;
- swelling of the legs, swollen lymph nodes;
- bitterness in the mouth;
- decreased or increased appetite;
- muscle pain without cause;
- low temperature;
- weight loss.
It is extremely difficult to identify the infection by the signs alone, as the same symptoms can characterize different diseases. Immediately after infection, helminthiasis can be invisible and asymptomatic. Therefore, it is recommended to do a stool analysis (three times), scrapings (the same number of times) and blood. Examination of stool and scrapings is performed three times due to the fact that identifying worm eggs is very difficult the first time.
therapeutic actions
Treatment for worms should be carried out in a complex, divided into stages:
- body preparation;
- removal of helminths;
- restoration of impaired functions.
The first stage of treatment involves the use of vegetable oils and sorbents designed to cleanse the body of toxic substances.
After completing the preparation of the body, it is necessary to start treatment with drugs. The choice of anthelmintic drug depends on the type of helminths. More often than others, people have roundworms - roundworms, pinworms and whipworms. To remove worms of these species from the body, agents are recommended that kill the parasites by interrupting their metabolic processes.
Do not take medications on their own, and even more so for preventive purposes, as each of them has side effects. Synthetic agents are highly toxic and their use puts a heavy strain on the liver, already weakened by the worm's waste products. When using these medications, there may be abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, stool disorder, lack of coordination, numbness of limbs, tingling and crawling, prolonged fever, hair loss. In special cases, convulsions, hallucinations and loss of consciousness are possible.
Once you have identified the infection, contact a qualified specialist who will prescribe the necessary treatment for you and tell you how to remove the worms from the body, based on individual characteristics.
In the last phase, the patient must take drugs that cleanse the gastrointestinal tract. These drugs, where the main active element is milk thistle, help to restore the structure of the liver and eliminate toxins. For the rehabilitation of normal metabolism, you should take drugs saturated with vitamins and trace elements.
Increasing the protective properties of the body
After removing helminths from the body, no one is immune to reinfection. To increase immunity, it is necessary to take general strengthening agents, as a weakened body is more susceptible to infection.
Allergic reactions to the presence of worms in the body are eliminated by antihistamines.
Folk ways of dealing with the disease
How to ward off worms, our ancestors knew well. Sanitary and hygienic conditions were much worse, so worms in humans were not uncommon. Time-tested folk remedies are effective and appropriate when the medical method of treatment is unacceptable due to drug intolerance or any disease.
Flax and cloves remove helminths from the body of almost all types. The seeds of the first, together with the second plant (1: 10), must be ground to a powder. Drink 20-25 g a day. Reception lasts 3 days. After a three-day break, repeat the course. Treatment should be continued for one month.
Pinworms and roundworms are sensitive to onions. It is necessary to clean the medium onion and pour 250 ml of boiled water. Infuse for 12 hours, then strain. Drink a third or half a glass of infusion for 3-4 days.
Garlic helps in the fight against parasites, especially worms. Grind a few cloves of spices, pour boiled water not hot. Insist for 20-30 minutes. You can use the infusion for both enema and candles.
Pumpkin seeds contain cucurbitacin, which affects the worms' nervous system. You need to sprinkle the seeds with salted water and fry in a pan with vegetable oil. For an effective treatment, 10-15 seeds a day are sufficient.
Nuts are afraid of roundworms and tapeworms. Boil lightly salted water. 4 tbsp. I. crushed nuts pour the resulting boiling water. Infuse for 30 minutes and strain. Drink the medicine during the day while taking a laxative.
An infusion of chicory to combat helminths has the following recipe: 1 tsp. Grated root of the plant is mixed with the same amount of yarrow leaves and tansy. The resulting mixture is poured with 500 ml of boiled water. Then you need to prepare the infusion in a water bath for 15 minutes. Drink a quarter of a cup on an empty stomach. The course is one week. This infusion should not be used to treat helminthiasis in children under 12 years of age.
Carrot juice, simple and famous for its beneficial properties, is a real threat to little worms. To remove helminths from the body, 1 tbsp is enough. I. drink 2 times a day.
Coconut is not just a nice dessert. It also helps to remove parasites, especially from the child's body. Coconut milk and zest are used for this. All this can be purchased separately in the store, but it is still better to buy a coconut, and after you have milked it, grate the pulp. Mix the two ingredients. You need to drink it 3 times a day for 1 tsp. before meals. Adults can increase the dosage. The course of treatment is 7 days. After 2 weeks, you need to repeat the course. You can store this medication in the refrigerator for no more than 2 days.
A significant disadvantage of treatment with folk recipes is the complexity of preparing infusions. Incorrect proportions or dosage may not be fatal to worms, but simply uncomfortable. In this sense, the parasites will leave their habitat, choosing another shelter in your body. After all, through the bloodstream, helminths can penetrate anywhere. Therefore, you must be especially careful and approach the matter in all seriousness.
Diet in the treatment of helminthiases
The composition of the complex therapy must also include nutritional correction. First of all, you must discharge the already depleted liver by reducing the intake of fatty and heavy foods. Nutritionists recommend paying special attention to vegetarian cuisine, so you should increase your intake of fruits and vegetables. It is very helpful to consume coconuts and nuts every day. As mentioned above, they effectively help to remove parasites. The important point is to reduce the portions of what you eat and increase the number of meals (at least 5-6 a day).
latest methods
It is very popular to remove helminths from the body through the use of multi-action anthelmintic devices.
Anti-parasitic devices are devices that produce an electromagnetic field of a certain frequency, uncomfortable for the life of the worms. For this reason, parasites leave the body.
However, such devices have significant drawbacks. They only affect adult parasites. Helminth cysts and larvae are indifferent to the effects of the devices and safely continue their lives in the human body. Also, exposure to an electromagnetic field negatively affects blood cells.
Another popular type of deworming has become the ionic detox of the body. The essence of this method is to remove the accumulated toxins from the worms' permanence. Particles with different charges remove toxic substances from human tissues without damaging cells. During the detox procedure, a person lowers his legs into a container with a solution. The ions of this agent, under the influence of low-frequency current, unite and remove all impurities from the body. In this case, the water becomes dirty and smells bad. With each new procedure, the color of the liquid becomes lighter. This method has a positive effect on the immunity of the body as a whole.
There is another way to get rid of worms. The principle of its action is to change the living conditions of the parasites. The habitat is actively saturated with oxygen, which negatively affects the existence of parasites, and the worms leave the human body. Another positive effect of this method is the saturation of tissues and cells with oxygen.
The most modern method of getting rid of parasites is ozonation. Ozone therapy can be of the following types:
- ozone-rich water and herbal teas;
- ozone oil enemas;
- solutions enriched with ozone and intended for intravenous use;
- ozone-oxygen mixture for introduction into the rectum.
The method works like this: ozone makes it impossible for the parasites to breathe. In this regard, the worms die and are brought on naturally.
If you become a carrier of helminths, proper treatment will not only help to remove them, but will also boost your immunity, saving you from many chronic diseases. So, you can improve your body and improve the quality of life in general.
