In biology, parasites are organisms whose vital activity, as a rule, occurs at the expense of higher-organized forms of life and others. In everyday terms, the term is generally used to refer to protozoa and helminths that live in the human body.
At first glance, parasitic invasions are a rare and marginal phenomenon in the modern world. Apparently, with the development of medicine, improved hygiene practices, and urban planning, this is a thing of the past. This idea is a bit misleading: Internet stories about "collecting parasites" have little to do with reality, but even today the risk of becoming a carrier of unwanted fauna is very high. Pet owners, exotic food and travel enthusiasts, children and those who neglect standard hygiene procedures are particularly susceptible to infection.
- skin rashes of unknown origin, dermatitis, acne;
- dyspeptic disorders, heartburn, nausea, sudden weight gain, digestive problems;
- headache and dizziness;
- fragility of nails, deterioration of hair, premature aging of the skin;
- deterioration of immunity and disease resistance, regular herpetic eruptions, colds;
- general health disorders: dysthymic events, irritability, lethargy.
Often, helminths and protozoa live in the digestive organs and liver. Parasites can remain almost invisible in the body for years or, conversely, can cause financial problems a month after infection. Parasites deplete the human body in one way or another, destroy the beneficial internal flora, interfere with the absorption of nutrients and destroy body systems. Prolonged exposure to the human body poses extremely serious health problems, and parasitic invasions in children can lead to impaired physical development and nervous regulation.
Cleansing the body of parasites often requires the help of professional doctors. If you suspect their presence, you should immediately consult a doctor and begin appropriate treatment. Many natural remedies have been shown to be effective against parasites. They can also speed healing, provide additional support for drug treatment, and prevent infection. The advantages of natural medicines over synthetic ones are less toxicity, cheaper and easier to use. However, folk remedies should be used with caution: you should follow the instructions when taking antiparasitic drugs at home. Too little active herbal material will not have the desired effect and will help parasites resist it, and too much can lead to overdose.
