Parasitesare the simplest types of bacteria that live off the nutrients of another organism, parasitizing it. They feed on ready organic matter produced by third parties.
Currently, there are more than twenty species of parasitic life forms that can inhabit the bodies of animals or humans.
All of them can enter our body and cause a large number of diseases and infections. Often, these bacteria are found in children, as they do not have such a high level of immunity, while they are in close contact with animals and some dirty things.
Remember that a small child usually takes everything by the mouth?
These items can carry dangerous worms. This article provides a classification of parasites in the human body, how to treat infectious diseases and what is needed to prevent harmful bacteria from entering your body.
Parasitic bacteria in the human body, in which organs can they live?
In the human body and on your skin are the simplest bacteria, they can be unicellular and multicellular.
The parasites that inhabit the body are called ectoparasites. This type includes stink bugs, lice and pathogens similar to scabies. Others are called endoparasites because they live inside the human body. This includes amoebas, worms and insect larvae.
The latter are the most dangerous, while the former are simply unpleasant.
Internal parasites tend to cause serious illness and are more difficult to eliminate than external ones. Medicine has found many ways to get rid of them and also has extensive experience in treating parasites in the human body.
Each of the parasites has its ideal place in the human body, where they have all the conditions for a parasitic lifestyle, that is, the nutrients necessary for growth and reproduction. Some of them can move as they grow.
Endogenous parasites are most commonly found in the intestines, muscles, blood, lungs, heart and liver. Some species even live in nerve tissues. Ectogenic parasites live on the skin.
How can parasites enter the body?
The first methodis to ingest bacteria in the body with food and water. Sometimes it is contaminated or contaminated, so the microorganisms start to multiply there. Insects like flies and cockroaches also carry many harmful bacteria. Some foods are initially contaminated - raw fish or unprocessed meat. Often cattle meat is infected with parasites, so the person does not eat it raw.
Second- get in touch with the family. In this case, the parasites are transmitted from humans, by means of domestic utensils or animals. Infectious bacteria are often transported by animals outdoors - dogs, cats, birds and mice.
Third- transmission through blood by mosquitoes. In our country and in many other regions, this rarely happens, most of the time the infected mosquitoes live in warm countries.
The fourth is the independent entry of some insects into the human body. They gnaw at the skin and penetrate muscle tissue or blood, and then go where the best living conditions are for them.
What are the symptoms of the parasites?
Parasites in the human body can cause completely different symptoms - from insomnia, which is usually imperceptible, to skin lesions. For example, ectoparasites often cause damage to the skin and scabies. Endoparasites in the lungs often cause coughing. When found in the intestines, you may be concerned about constipation, vomiting or diarrhea.
But the general signs of the presence of parasites in humans are the following: insomnia, general fatigue, headaches and, sometimes, allergic reactions. Often, people use folk remedies, but they are not always pleasant, for example, not everyone can drink a glass of sauerkraut juice with earthworm.
Consider the symptoms in the presence of different types of parasites:
- The most common parasites for humans are worms or worms. They cause intestinal upsets and stomach pains, irritability, insomnia and anxiety attacks, and sometimes dizziness. Detecting them is quite simple, they can be seen in the stool or get a positive test result on an egg worm;
- Then comes a very dangerous parasite - the tapeworm. It often causes discomfort or pain in the abdomen, diarrhea, brutal appetite (eats a lot, but does not increase weight), pain in the liver and the presence of worms in the stool;
- If a person has pinworms, they may notice loss of appetite, insomnia, nervousness and itching in the anus.
Why are parasites dangerous?
They disturb the functioning of the organs, cause inflammation in the tissues and destroy them. It produces toxic substances that destroy the body.
A pest that parasites you can cause a lack of vitamins, general weakening and decreased immunity in adults and children. The presence of this parasite in children is very dangerous, as it greatly slows down its development. It is often difficult to get rid of parasites from the body, as they tend to adapt to the environment and do not want to leave their usual home.
How to treat parasites?
To get rid of parasites, you must first see a doctor. He will prescribe a specific medication or other more natural remedy.

Some drugs are in the form of pills, while others are in another form, like liquid. The dosage is determined only by the doctor, it is not possible to do it yourself without side effects. In addition, the medications have differences in the age of the patients for whom they are intended.
Another way to cure people with parasites has emerged in the modern world. It is called oxygen and appeared relatively recently, it is performed only in hospitals under the supervision of a doctor. First, the patient is cleaned of the intestines with an enema, and then oxygen is injected by a tube method. When the stomach and rectum are filled with oxygen, the parasites die. With this method, the cured patient does not receive any side symptoms, unlike the drug method.
Parasites: rapid treatment with folk remedies
You can remove various parasites from the human body with folk remedies; even some doctors recommend some natural remedies to get rid of these pests.

Vegetable oils can be used as natural laxatives, the most common being castor oils.
For the treatment of parasites with folk remedies in adults, anthelmintic teas are used and after cleaning the intestines with an enema. To prepare the broth, you can take absinthe, cloves, celandine or tansy. They all have a strong and bitter taste, so they make the environment in the intestine unsuitable for pests.
However, pay attention to the herbs used, many of which are prohibited for pregnant women.
Diet for the prevention of parasites
Anyone who has encountered parasites knows how important rehabilitation and prevention are. For this, the attending physician often prescribes a special diet. Separate meals are recommended when you eat carbohydrates and proteins separately. Because if we eat them together, the stomach will not receive an exact signal of what will need to be digested and what enzymes will be needed for that.
Poorly digested foods are great for parasites, so they continue to live and develop.
For example, meat, vegetables cannot be eaten with potatoes, pasta or bread. Better to combine them with vegetables. If you want to eat carbohydrates and proteins, take a 2-hour break between eating them.

Take 15 nuts, remove their green peels and cover with vodka. Leave to infuse for a month, in a dark, dry place. Then dilute a drop of the tincture in half a glass of water and drink.
Gradually increase the dosage by one drop each day for seven days. After that, also gradually increase your intake to 2 x teaspoons, take the medication a few times a day. Continue to take 2 teaspoons of the tincture twice a day throughout the year. This is a very long but very effective cleaning process.
An easier way is to use clove seeds. They need to be ground to a powdery state. Just take a teaspoon and a half of this powder at a time. Over ten days, gradually reduce the dosage, at the end of the period you should reach a teaspoon.
Various fresh juices help to clean the intestines. For example, carrots, cucumbers, lemons, beets, apples - all of these juices, when consumed on an empty stomach, create a certain environment in the stomach and remove parasites from the body.
