Human intestinal parasitic worm infection may contact from; air, food, and water or through transmitting agents like mosquito, sexual conduct or through the nose and skin. It causes constipation, bloating, and other disease problems. They live on or in other organisms from which it obtains nutrients to live and causes harm in the process.
There can be over 100 different kinds of parasites worms living in human bodies. Some are so small and difficult to see with the naked eye, they are microscopic but others can be easily noticed.
Different Varieties
There are 3200 varieties of parasites in the four major categories, Protozoa, Trematoda, Cestoda and Nematoda.
Nematodes; common roundworms, hookworms, whipworms, pinworms, heart worms, Strongyloides, Stercoralis, Ancylostoma, caninum, toxocara worm and trichinosis. Size can vary from .2 to 35 centimeters.
Roundworms look similar to an earthworm and can produce 200,000 eggs daily.
Symptoms
They can damage or block certain organs by lumping together in balls or tumors. They can be mistaken for cancer tumors, and travel into the brain, heart and lungs.
Other symptom includes anemia, asthma, diarrhea, digestive disorders, fatigue, low immune system, nervousness, and skin rash. Most people with parasitic infection don’t give much attention to it, until the worm infection contracted various diseases.
People with intestinal parasite infections are usually under-nourished and weak, infected with viral, fungal, or bacteria, and have various types of chemical and metal poisoning. Human intestinal parasites can be present in anyone, at any age.
The symptom from roundworms is upper abdominal discomfort. Other symptoms are asthma, eye pain, insomnia, and rashes due to the secretions or waste products from the worms.
Pinworms symptoms are itching and irritation of the anus or vagina, digestive disorders, insomnia, irritability or nervousness. Female worms crawl out of the anus and lay about 15,000 eggs per day. Once airborne, the eggs can survive about two days anywhere in environment.
Hookworm larvae penetrate the skin. When hookworms reach adulthood, they can sap the victim’s strength, vitality and overall well-being. Young worms use their teeth to burrow through the intestinal wall and feed on your blood. Symptoms from hookworm are iron deficiency, abdominal pain, loss of appetite, craving to eat soil, protein deficiency, dry skin and hair, skin irritations, edema, distended abdomen, stunted growth, delayed puberty, mental dullness, cardiac failure and death.
Symptoms of whipworms are bloody stools, pain in the lower abdomen, weight loss, rectal prolapsed, nausea and anemia. Hemorrhage can occur when worms penetrate the intestinal wall and bacterial infections usually follow.
Gardia symptoms are mild to moderate abdominal cramps, intestinal gas, light colored stools, bad absorption, weakness, chills, stomach bloating and diarrhea
Signs of Parasites in Children
Blisters appeared on the inside of the lower lip, wiping of the nose, restlessness and grinding of the teeth at night, dark circles under the eyes, hyperactive, bed wetting, headaches, sensitive to light, twitching eyelid, gum, rectum, or nose bleeding are signs they may have parasites.
Causes
They are responsible for many health problems because they secrete toxins and steal the vital nutrients from our bodies. They can irritate or exaggerate other health problems you may be experiencing. Everyone is at risk and under their mercy during parasitic infections.
The perfect living environment for parasites is when the bowel becomes irregular in the elimination of our waste products. The build up of fecal material on the walls of the colon is due to constipation and the amount of junk food, chemicals, bad fats and sweets we eat.
Cancer cases are afflicted with worms that often group together and look like tumors. Female worms can release 3,000 to 200,000 eggs per day depending on their type.
Large numbers can cause blockages in the intestinal tract, hemorrhage when penetrating the intestinal wall, appendicitis, peritonitis, abscesses in the liver, hemorrhagic pancreatitis, loss of appetite, and insufficient absorption of digested foods.
Allergies, Many allergies are caused by worm infections. Tissue becomes inflamed and reactions to foods are the result when white blood cells are increased due to worm infections. Extreme skin rashes with blisters and food allergies or sensitivities may result.
Anemia, Worms leach nutrients from bodies causing anemia. When they are present in large numbers, they can create enough blood loss to cause anemia or iron deficiency in some people.
Constipation, some worms can obstruct certain organs like the colon causing constipation, liver and the bile duct.
Diarrhea, Most of the time diarrhea is nature’s way of removing toxins.
Fatigue, Symptoms include tiredness, flue-like symptoms, apathy, depression and lack of concentration.
Gas and Stomach Bloating; some parasites live in the upper intestine, which can cause both gas and stomach bloating.
Immune Dysfunction, Parasites depress the immune system by decreasing immunoglobulin.
Nervousness, the waste products from parasites irritate the nervous system, resulting in anxiety and restlessness.
Protozoa, the single cell parasites; amoeba, protozoa infections, neospora, Toxoplasmosis, cryptosporidium, giardia, Sarcocystis and Trichomonas vaginalis.
Amoeba are an irregular shaped microorganism that infects the end of the smaller intestine and colon. Amoebiasis is the most common infection and caused by these species.
Amoeba also release an enzyme that causes ulcers or abscesses where they can enter the bloodstream. They can eventually reach other organs like the brain or liver.
Cryptosporidium is associated with water-borne outbreaks. The victim might experience diarrhea and abdominal pain lasting for about ten days.
Giardia is the most prevalent intestinal parasite in humans and found in drinking water. Giardia resides in the smaller intestine and at times in the gall bladder. Millions of these giardia organisms will coat the intestinal walls, prevents the absorption of nutrients and later causing illness.
Trichomonas vaginalis are pathogens that resides in the vagina in females and the urethra, epididymis, and swelling in the prostate gland in males. In women there is some yellowish discharge accompanied by itching and burning.
Malaria, the most prevalent and debilitating disease among the protozoa type is caused by Plasmodium.
Cestodes or Tapeworms: bladder worms, pork tapeworms, broad fish, dog tapeworms, dwarf and rat tapeworms. Broad fish tapeworms may grow to 35 feet long and live ten years inside the persons intestines. Some tapeworms can lay as many as one million eggs per day. Their bodies are in separate segments with hooks and suction cups on their skull.
Trematodes or Flukes: Flatworms, bladder, blood, liver, lung, kidney and intestinal flukes. They can cause severe disease of the gastrointestinal tract, bladder, liver and destroy blood cells.
Spirochetes are very tiny organisms that are spiral-shaped, and multiply in the blood and lymphatic system. The host or carrier is usually lice, ticks, fleas, mites, and flying insects, which is then transmitted to humans. Spirochetes are responsible for relapsing fever, infectious jaundice, Lymes disease, sores, ulcers, Vincent angina and Wyles disease.
Some conditions that promote parasitic infections are excess mucus, an imbalance in the intestinal flora, chronic constipation, and toxic internal environment.
Polyp or tumors, which bulge out into the nasal passage may also be filled with parasites. It is important to clear the nasal passages so you can breathe in the Breath of Life, more oxygen. Self-examination of the nasal passages is possible with small flash light held in the front of the nose and looking in the mirror. The airway should clear almost to the throat. If you can only see in about an inch, problems may exist.
Treatments
In nose area, manual cleaning is required, dip an ear swab into 3 percent Hydrogen peroxide and swab inside the nose. It may be necessary to plug the other side and breathe in slightly to get the hydrogen peroxide past the obstructions. Let it sit until the sinuses open and then blow out the excess mucus. Repeated use will show where parasites may be dwelling under the tissue by the bubbling and oxidation effect of the H2O2. With the aid of tweezers, it is possible to pull out the parasites and waste matter for disposal.
Black walnut oil:
One or two drops are sufficient enough in a glass of water, drink two times a day. Skin reactions may occur when drinking black walnut oil in water for the elimination of worms. When they are exposed to the oil, they will cease releasing toxins to protect their living environment. The toxins that are absorbed into the blood causes rashes on the skin. To avoid this condition, start out slow and increase dosage over longer periods.
Pumpkin seeds and onions mixed with soy milk:
Good remedy for almost all type of worm eradication.
Milkweed, pennyroyal and black walnut:
Mix and drink, effective for blood flukes
Cloves, goldenrod and goldenseal root.
Mix and drink, best for liver flukes infection
Bitter melon:
Eat raw or in salad, effective against pinworms.
Pineapple:
Eat raw for three days helps to get rid of tapeworms.
Ozonated Oil/Vitamin E:
Direct applications of the ozone in the ears and nose. Insert the hose into each nostril while closing eyes and holding breathe during each treatment. Sneezing will occur and the sinuses will open. Do as tolerated.
If there is burning and twitching of the toes or it feels like rocks inside or scaling appeared on the outside is an indication that parasites exist. Applying ozonated oil or vitamin E on the dry skin will help soften the tissue.
Cloves:
Use more cloves with every meal. Adding some to foods will help kill the eggs from parasites in the intestinal tract. Cloves added to coffee or an herbal tea adds better taste.
Apple cider:
Mix one or two teaspoons of apple cider vinegar in one glass of water. Alternatively, you can take one tablespoon daily of 1 part apple cider vinegar, 2 parts apple juice, 1 part apple brandy.
Diet
There are many natural foods, herbal cleansing products, and essential oils that one can help to get of worm infections. Take herbal medicines with empty stomach for maximum effect. The best way to treat parasitic infection is through detoxification using good nutritional programs that will restore balance and the immune system. Everyone infected with worms is deficient in the essential nutrients. All essential vitamin and mineral supplements are necessary.
If parasites are the problem, it is very important to take larger doses of plant-derived nutrients due to deficiencies. Some worms suck your vitamins and minerals directly out of the blood. Others absorb your nutrients through their outer skin layer. The nutrients need replacing daily.
High carbohydrate diet, low in protein, and high in alkaline has been found to make parasitic infections worse. Sugar should also be avoided because parasites thrive on it and it is possible you could have candida.
This candida or yeast infections create an environment in the colon that equals the environment needed for them to thrive. Foods that lower pH from high alkaline conditions in the colon are apple cider vinegar and cranberry juice.
Constipation problems can be helped with friendly bacteria, cascara sagrada bark, chamomile tea, or elder flowers. Licorice added to herbal teas has slight laxative action.
Preventive Measures to Eliminate Parasitic Worms
Wash all fruits and vegetables. Scrape off the wax substance on the outer surface on any fruit or vegetable with knife before washing. Anything with nicks or recess can harbor just about anything and should be cut out.
Do not eat grapes with open splits. Washing in ozonated water, hydrogen peroxide (1tsp/gl of water), or bleach (1/2 tsp/gal. of water, soak for 10 minutes) can kill parasites. Rinse well after to remove bleach residue.
Thoroughly cook meats and fish. Do not eat raw or uncooked meats or fish. Check for worms, especially on fish. Spray with hydrogen peroxide or wash in ozonated water before cooking.
Keep all work surfaces clean.
Drink pure water. Parasites are associated with many water-borne outbreaks and are highly resistant to conventional methods of disinfecting. Water that is properly purified with ozone is free of parasites.
Wash your hands before eating and after going to the bathroom, changing diapers, or handling pets.
Keep your fingernails short and clean. Parasites can live for two months under the fingernails.
Keep your environment clean. Dust in your house can contain human skin, soil particles, or fecal material from dust mites and cockroaches..
Do not walk barefoot on warm, moist soil or while working in the garden. Parasites are abundant in soil and can penetrate through skin cells. Use gloves and shoes for protection.
When swimming in rivers, lakes, ponds, or public swimming pools. Avoid swallowing or drinking the water while swimming anywhere. Do not swim if you have cuts or open sores.
If pets are infested with parasites, de-worm and keep them outside. Pets are host to many kinds of parasite that humans can contract. Add garlic to their food, to avoid build up of parasites in their bodies.
Do not overuse antibiotics, they can reduce even the friendly bacteria in the colon allows for the proliferation of parasites.
