Today we will talk about how you can get rid of parasites in the human body with the help of folk remedies. Unfortunately, many patients seek medical attention too late, without paying due attention to the diagnosis and treatment of this problem. Meanwhile, parasites that live in the human body cause great damage to his health and significantly impair his well-being.
Types of parasites
Medicine knows more than 250 species of parasitic organisms that humans suffer from. The parasites differ from each other in structure, size, favorite localization in the human body, clinical manifestations during infection. But they all have one thing in common: nutrition at the expense of their carrier. Particularly harmful are parasites that live in the gastrointestinal tract.
Of these, the most common:
- Roundworms that cause ascariasis. It is a common parasite (according to statistics, about 50 million cases of infection are diagnosed each year in the world). The worm's habitat in the human body is the small intestine. The length of an adult can reach over 40 cm.
- Hookworm is a roundworm that also lives in the gut. It is widespread among the population of tropical countries.
- Giardia is a protozoan that lives and acts in the human liver. They are most common in young children.
- Wide tapeworm - tapeworm that can reach 10 meters. His life is up to 25 years. Lives in the small intestine.
- Pinworm is a small roundworm (less than 1 cm) that also parasitizes the human gut.
- Toxocara are helminths that cause a serious condition with allergy symptoms. These parasites often affect children between the ages of 1 and 4 years.
- Chain (beef and pork) - long (4-10 m) tapeworms. If left untreated, adults reach 20 years of age.
Infection with parasites often occurs due to lack of personal hygiene and violation of the rules of cooking technology.Those who regularly forget to wash their hands, fruits or vegetables are at great risk. There is a risk of helminth eggs entering the body when using poorly prepared animal products, especially meat.
Another common route of infection is through contact with pets, including kittens. It is important to remember that after communicating with them, you should wash your hands thoroughly with soap and never kiss animals.
It is possible to determine the type of organism that has settled in the human gastrointestinal tract after passing the necessary tests. Then the doctor prescribes special therapy, although many patients prefer to get rid of parasites in the body with folk remedies.
Symptoms of infection
What are the signs by which one should suspect that "uninvited guests" have appeared in the gastrointestinal tract and start looking for an appropriate way to treat them? The clinical manifestations largely depend on the stage of the disease, the characteristics ofThe human body and the type of parasite Common symptoms include:
- recurrent bouts of nausea or vomiting;
- general weakness and increased fatigue;
- dizziness;
- abrupt change in weight (both weight loss and weight gain);
- epigastric discomfort and pain;
- intestinal upset (diarrhea or constipation);
- deterioration of the skin, nails and hair.
Parasites that infect the human body feed on its tissues and nutrients in the body. As a result, it does not receive the necessary amount of useful micro- and macroelements, which inevitably leads to deterioration of the general condition. After conducting laboratory tests, you can confirm or deny the fact of infection with parasites.
Treatment with folk remedies
Getting rid of parasites with folk remedies is based on the special effect on them of certain substances, mainly of natural origin. Before starting such treatment, it will be useful to consult your doctor about the use of this or that method.
Hilda Clark's method
Hilda Clark was a famous doctor and scientist specializing in parasitology. She believed that most of the known diseases that are difficult to treat are the result of infection with pathogens. That's why she developed her own unique way to fight human parasites, which has become known around the world today.
The method consists in the use of a special complex of herbal medicines. It has three components:
- alcoholic tincture of unripe walnut bark (if necessary, it can be replaced with "pharmacy" balm with a similar composition and active ingredients);
- wormwood (dry raw materials);
- Ground cloves, known as an aromatic spice and sold in grocery stores (can be ground in a coffee grinder, grinder or spice mortar).
To make a tincture to get rid of parasites at home, you need green shells of 15 unripe walnuts. Wash, pour in 0, 5 liters. vodka or medical alcohol, which must first be diluted to 45-50 °. The resulting composition should be infused in direct sunlight (eg on a south window) for 30 days. The finished product is stored only in a dark place.
This tincture (or balm) should be taken in the morning before the first meal. On the first day, 1 drop of the drug is diluted in 100 ml of lukewarm water and drunk, then prescribed to increase the dose dropwise every day. After 6 days and then you should take 2 teaspoons. The course of treatment is one year, although the death of parasites occurs earlier.
Dry wormwood is taken the night before dinner in powder form, which is washed down with a glass of water. Admission scheme:
- 1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th, 9th, 11th day - (0, 2-0, 3 g) raw materials;
- 2nd (0, 4-0, 6 g), 4th (0, 6-0, 9 g), 6th (0, 8-1, 2 g), 8th (1-1, 5 g), 10th (1, 2-1, 8 g) and 12th (1, 4-2, 1).
Wormwood is then taken as a prophylactic for one year in a minimum dose daily before the last meal (1, 4-2, 1 g).
Ground cloves should be drunk three times a day, half an hour before meals. On the first day - half a gram, on the second - 1 g and from 3 to 10 days - one and a half grams. After 10 days, take once a week for a year to consolidate the effect.
Trinity
Another way to help get rid of parasites in the body with the help of folk methods is to use another trio of plant components. It is adapted to the conditions of the middle zone, where walnuts do not grow and its unripe fruits can be problematic to obtain. In this recipe, tansy takes their place.
For treatment you will need:
- dry tansy - 100 g;
- dry wormwood - 25 g;
- cloves, ground - 50 g.
All ingredients should be mixed well and stored in a dry jar in a dark place. A single dose of this mixture is 1. 75 grams. Tansy is quite toxic, so it is important to accurately determine the amount of medicine to be taken, and this will require a pharmacy scale.
On the first day, the drug is taken only in the morning, at least 30 minutes before meals. In the second - before breakfast and dinner. On the third and further - 3 times a day (before breakfast, lunch and dinner). The duration of treatment is usually only one week. Contraindications: gastric ulcer, erosive gastritis.
Alternative recipe for "triplets"
This is another very effective home remedy for parasites. To prepare the medicine, you need to take:
- cumin seeds - 1 part;
- marigold flowers ("medicinal marigolds") ground - 2 parts;
- crushed rhizome of marsh calamus - 1 part.
All components must be well mixed. This natural preparation is used in the same dosage and according to the same scheme as the classic triad.
Other popular ways to fight parasites

- Edible clay, white or blue-white (available at your pharmacy). Such antiparasitic therapy will be especially useful for patients with increased stomach acidity.
For treatment it is necessary to prepare a solution of clay in a glass of water. After thorough mixing, the product should settle until the precipitate settles to the bottom and resembles milk in appearance. Such a folk remedy is taken twice a day - in the morning 20 minutes before meals and at night before bedtime. In this case the sludge is not used.
The duration of treatment is usually 30 days. At the same time, clay is a good adsorbent that helps remove toxins from the human body.
- Cinnamon is a well-known spice that is also not tolerated by most parasites in the gastrointestinal tract. To prevent infection with them, the spice is added to cereals, desserts, coffee. For treatment it is consumed in a small dose (about 1/8 teaspoon) two to three times a day 30 minutes before meals for a month.
