Parasitesare the simplest types of bacteria that live from the nutrients of another organism, parasitizing on it. They feed on ready-made organic matter produced by others.
There are currently more than twenty species of parasitic life forms that can inhabit the body of animals or humans.
All of them can enter our body and cause a large number of diseases and infections. Such bacteria are very often found in children, because they do not have such a high level of immunity, while they are in a lot of contact with animals and some dirty things.
Remember that a small child often takes everything in his mouth?
These items can carry dangerous pests. This article gives 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 its skin, there are the simplest bacteria, which can be unicellular or multicellular.
Parasites that inhabit the body are called ectoparasites. This type includes bed bugs, lice and similar pathogenic scabies. Others are called endoparasites because they live in the human body. These include amoebae, worms and insect larvae.
The latter are the most dangerous, while the former are simply annoying.
Internal parasites often cause serious diseases and are harder to get rid of than external ones. Medicine has already found many ways to get rid of them, and it 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, or the necessary nutrients 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 nervous tissues. Ectogenic parasites live on the skin.
How can parasites enter the body?
The first methodis to introduce bacteria into the body through food and water. Sometimes it is contaminated or contaminated, so 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. Very often cattle meat is infected with parasites, so man does not eat it raw.
Other- contact household. In this case, the parasites are transmitted from humans, through household items or animals. Very often, infectious bacteria are transmitted to animals in the open - dogs, cats, birds and rats.
Third- transmission of mosquitoes through the blood. In our country and in many other regions, this rarely happens, most often infected mosquitoes live in hot countries.
The fourth is the independent entry of some insects into the human body. They bite through the skin and penetrate into muscle tissue or blood, and then go where living conditions are best for them.
What are the symptoms of a parasite?
Parasites in the human body can cause completely different symptoms - from insomnia, which is often unnoticeable, to skin lesions. For example, ectoparasites often cause skin damage and scabies. Endoparasites in the lungs often cause coughing. When they are found in the intestines, you may be worried about constipation, vomiting, or diarrhea.
But the general signs of the presence of parasites in humans are as follows: insomnia, general fatigue, headaches and sometimes allergic reactions. People very often use folk remedies, but they are not always pleasant, for example, not everyone can drink a glass of sauerkraut juice with worms.Consider the symptoms in the presence of different types of parasites:
- The most common parasites in humans are worms or roundworms. They cause intestinal upset and stomach pain, irritability, insomnia and anxiety attacks, and sometimes dizziness. They are very easy to detect, they can be seen in the feces or get a positive egg test result;
- What follows is a rather dangerous parasite - tapeworm. It often causes discomfort or pain in the abdomen, diarrhea, brutal appetite (you eat a lot but do not gain weight), liver pain, and the presence of worms in its feces;
- If a person has pinworms, they may notice loss of appetite, insomnia, nervousness and itching in the anus.
Why are parasites dangerous?
They disrupt the functioning of organs, cause inflammation in tissues and destroy them. They produce toxic substances that destroy the body.
A pest that parasitizes on you can cause vitamin deficiency, general weakening and decreased immunity in adults and children. The presence of such a parasite in children is very dangerous because they greatly slow down their development. It is very often difficult to get rid of parasites in the body because they adapt to their environment and do not want to leave their usual home.
How to treat parasites?
To get rid of parasites, you must first visit a doctor. They will prescribe a specific medication or some other more natural remedy.
There is also treatment with folk remedies, but it is recommended to carry out in symbiosis with drugs.

Another way to treat 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 cleansed of the bowel with an enema, and then oxygen is injected with a probe. Once the stomach and rectum are filled with oxygen, the parasites die. With this method, the cured patient does not receive any side effects, unlike the method of treatment.

Anthelmintic teas are used to treat parasites with folk remedies in adults, and after cleansing the intestines with an enema. You can take wormwood, cloves, celandine or tansy to prepare the soup. They all have a sharp and bitter taste, making the environment in the gut unsuitable for pests.
However, watch out for used herbs, many of which are forbidden to pregnant women.
Parasite Prevention Diet
Anyone who has ever encountered parasites knows how important rehabilitation and prevention are. This is why a doctor who often prescribes a special diet. Separate meals are recommended when you eat carbohydrates and proteins separately from each other. Because if we eat them together, the stomach does not receive the exact signal of what will need to be digested and what enzymes are needed for that.
Insufficiently digested food is great food for parasites, so they continue to live and thrive.
For example, meat, legumes cannot be eaten with potatoes, pasta or bread. Better to combine them with vegetables. If you want to eat carbs and protein, take a two-hour break between meals.

Take 15 nuts, remove the green rind and pour vodka over them. Leave to infuse for a month, in a dark and dry place. Then dilute one drop of tincture in half a glass of water and drink.
Gradually increase the dose every day by drop for seven days. After that, also gradually increase the intake to 2 x teaspoons, take the medicine several times a day. Continue to take 2 teaspoons of tincture twice a day throughout the year. This is a fairly long cleaning course, but very effective.
An easier way is to use carnation seeds. They must be ground to a powder. Just take one and a teaspoon of this powder at a time. Gradually reduce the dose over ten days, at the end of the period you should reach one teaspoon.
