A remedy for parasites in the body can also be a popular remedy if, for example, a patient has intolerance to a drug.
However, these agents must be prescribed by a doctor, since parasitic diseases can be caused by different pathogens, whose vital activity is also suppressed by different means.
Should we get rid of parasites?
Human parasitic diseases are divided into helminthiasis (caused by worms) and protozoan infections (caused by protozoa). Both these and others can be dangerous to the human body.
Thus, helminthiases cause alterations in the functioning of the intestines, the products of their vital activity interrupt the functioning of the liver, reduce the ability to work and in children they delay physical and neuropsychic development. In addition, they promote sensitization (allergy) of the body and create a favorable background for the development of allergic diseases. Protozoa are no less dangerous.
Trichomonas are the causative agent of sexually transmitted infections.
Giardia is dangerous mainly for children, in whom it can cause poisoning and allergic diseases.
How Parasitic Infections Are Treated
If you suspect a parasitic infection, see your doctor. He will first conduct an examination and then prescribe a drug that is suitable to treat the identified disease. In this case, all indications and contraindications for the appointment of this drug should be taken into account.
Sometimes the patient is intolerant to drugs or simply does not want to use "chemistry". In this case, the doctor can prescribe a folk remedy for parasites in the body.
Home remedies, like drugs from a pharmacy, cannot be absolutely safe, as a certain dose of them is required to destroy parasites, which most often have side effects. Only a doctor can take into account all the nuances of the action of folk remedies for parasites.
