Is it possible to get rid of worms in the human body using folk remedies or not?Of course, the actual treatment of diseases caused by parasitic worms should be carried out by a parasitologist.This medical specialty is quite rare.
What if there is no such doctor?How can you rid your body of parasites using folk remedies?
About folk remedies
Of course, you can try to get rid of parasites in the body using folk remedies, but nothing more.Besides, an indicator of correctly performed deworming is the absence (and threefold) signs of helminths and their eggs in the studied material or negative results of serological diagnostics, for example, using the ELISA method.Of course, before treatment the parasite must be identified, and after treatment it must disappear.
Getting rid of parasites using folk remedies, in no way, does not include a follow-up examination.You can give up the diagnosis: the overwhelming number of people who take folk remedies do not even know why they take them.
Therefore, at home, you cannot rid the body of parasites, but take folk remedies that can cause the parasite some discomfort, if any, of course.There are, for example, parasitic cysts in echinococcosis in the brain, with such a dense membrane that even drugs through it have no effect on the larvae: they must be removed immediately.Therefore, the statement that some folk remedies can get rid of parasites is largely arbitrary.
To help medicines
However, many herbal medicines can provide every possible help in the complex treatment, if taken together with medicines prescribed by a doctor, with a stable diagnosis.What herbs can remove parasites from the body?
The following medicinal plants have an anthelmintic effect:
- pumpkin seeds.They are not only destructive to worms, but also delicious.The active substance is found in the film that surrounds the seeds.Traditional medicine advises to prepare 100 seeds, divide them into 4 doses and in the evening drink either petroleum jelly or vegetable oil in the amount of 2 tablespoons.The seeds paralyze the helminths' muscles and the laxative "drives them away".The only criterion of effectiveness is the detection of stationary worms in the feces.
- garlic.You can simply eat a lot of garlic in food, both fresh and as part of a horseradish.Some recommend garlic enemas, but they do more harm than good: you can burn the mucous membrane of the rectum and "enema" in a crack or erosion of the anus.
- sage.Since ancient times, bitter wormwood has been considered an appetite stimulant and anthelmintic.Fresh wormwood bedding also repels fleas from dogs and cats.For treatment, an infusion of wormwood leaves is used, which can be purchased at a pharmacy.
- parts of dandelion root.They contain a special taraxasin alkaloid, which has a detrimental effect on nematodes and tapeworms.It is used in the form of a decoction of dried roots.
- thyme.This aromatic herb is famous for its essential oil, which is very aversive to parasitic worms - helminths.You can drink tea by brewing fresh parts of the plant and letting it brew.You can consume ½ glass, 3 times a day, for 10-14 days.
It is necessary to clearly understand that, unlike medicines, there is no guarantee that the plant contains the required dose of the active substance.Moreover, its effect in any case will be much weaker than that of a medical drug.The issue of dosage is also completely unclear, especially in relation to children.It is said, for example, "take a hundred seeds," and that is all.All this is due to the fact that the specific dosage is unclear - how many seeds should be taken per kilogram of weight.
In addition, many plants used to repel pests are simply toxic, such as male fern.
Traditional medicine has no idea what substances to choose so that they affect only the metabolic characteristics of the parasite, but at the same time do not harm the person.This is the destiny of the science of medicine and pharmacology.Therefore, when consuming poisonous herbs internally on someone's advice, think "seven times" before ingesting their decoction or infusion.
Medicines are devoid of all those conventions and drawbacks that are characteristic of herbal medicine.Therefore, before looking in pharmacies and markets which herbs remove parasites from the body, just consult a doctor.
