Helminths belong to the group of organisms of the lowest life form. They can only exist at the expense of the body of their carriers. Most worms not only live in the body, but also disrupt its activity with their presence. Accordingly, the more species of worms live in the body, and the more they live there, the worse human health will be. Therefore, it is not recommended to assess the effects of helminths and delay their treatment.
It is a good idea to do regular maintenance and remove worms immediately when they appear. You can get rid of them with both drugs and traditional medicine. The latter has several advantages at the same time. First, they are less dangerous because they do not have synthetic elements. At the same time, in terms of effectiveness, it should be borne in mind that folk remedies are not inferior to medical methods.
Second, medical methods to eliminate helminths have emerged relatively recently, with traditional medicine not being used successfully by the first generation. This material will be devoted to the best means of combating worms in the human body, offered by traditional medicine.
Pumpkin seeds for parasites
The effectiveness of pumpkin seeds is due to the fact that they contain a killer of worms called cucurbitin. The most useful is the film between the seed coat and the core. Most cucurbitin is found here. Therefore, you should use the seeds with this film.
The mechanism of action of the seeds is paralysis of helminths, as a result of which they completely lose the ability to move, adhere to the walls of the intestinal mucosa and reproduce. Thus, after one or another period, they leave the body completely.
It is important to note that pumpkin seeds have three undeniable advantages:
- A wide range of activities, covering absolutely all types of intestinal helminths;
- Versatility. The seeds can be eaten by both adults and children;
- Taste. Pumpkin seeds are easy and pleasant to eat.
In addition, the seeds retain their beneficial properties in various treatments.
The list of the most effective folk remedies is as follows:
- Pumpkin seeds + honey. Recipe: Peel and grind 300 grams of seeds in a blender or coffee grinder. Then, add enough cold water to the mixture to form a gruel, then add 1 tbsp. l. All mixture of honey (or more) should be eaten within an hour. The procedure should be performed in the morning on an empty stomach. 180 minutes after consumption, take an enema or laxative to cleanse the body;
- pumpkin seeds + garlic. Garlic also contains phytoncides that have a negative effect on parasites. In this case, the grains are not cleaned and slightly fried. The recipe is as follows: Chop 200 g of pumpkin seeds in a blender and add crushed garlic (about 6 cloves). You can improve the taste of the product by adding honey there, but not more than a few tablespoons. After that, leave the gruel to infuse for half a day. The remedy should be taken on an empty stomach 3 hours before meals. The course of taking this drug is short - only 4 days;
- pumpkin seeds + castor oil. Recipe. Take 100 pumpkin seeds and divide them into 4 parts, each with 25 seeds. At first you only need to eat the first part, and after 60 minutes take 1 tsp. caster-oil. Important advice: the seeds should be chewed thoroughly. The result will be visible within a day. Especially in difficult cases, treatment should be extended for several days;
- pumpkin seeds + milk. Recipe: Pour 200 grams of raw seeds with milk and beat with a mixer. As a result, you will get oatmeal. He should eat breakfast. For a glass of water after 60 minutes and again for water after another 60 minutes, but now in the maximum amount possible. Take castor oil after 2, 5 hours - it will have a laxative effect.
Troichatka parasites
As the name suggests, the triad is a three-component preparation consisting of tansy, wormwood and cloves.
- Tansy contains thujone, a neurotoxin that is deadly to helminths. It kills worms immediately after entering the body. By the way, it is able to effectively eliminate not only worms, but also their larvae. The effects of this substance may also include stimulation of the secretion of gastric juice and gastrointestinal motility. First, it helps to increase the acidity of the environment in the stomach, thereby killing protozoa and bacteria, and secondly - easier removal of excess dead helminths. But there is a downside to such a strong and aggressive move. The fact is that thujone is toxic not only to helminths, but also to humans. And if an adult tolerates a dose of such a toxin more or less normally, a smaller patient may experience severe poisoning;
- Bitter wormwood also has a negative effect on worms and protozoa. The effect of the plant is due to its bitter and tannic properties. It should be noted that products containing wormwood can be used for no more than 60 days. Overdose can lead to accumulation poisoning;
- Clove has antifungal and antiviral effects.
The triad is prepared according to the following recipe. All ingredients need to be powdered, then mix 1 part of bitter wormwood, 2 parts of cloves and 4 parts of tansy.
The remedy should be taken one teaspoon three times a day with a glass of water half an hour before meals (more is possible, but not less). Troychatka has a small number of side effects associated with the individual's reaction to the drug components of the body. The list of contraindications is much broader, including diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, immunodeficiency conditions, severe poisoning, childhood and old age. You should talk to your doctor and get tested before preparing and consuming a triad.

They can be used both together and separately.
The recipe for a mixed infusion looks like this. Stir in a tablespoon of each herb. Then take two tablespoons of the resulting mixture and pour a glass of boiling water, then infuse for 60-120 minutes. After the infusion has been filtered before, you should drink half a glass every day on an empty stomach. Keep the infusion in the refrigerator only.

Treatment of parasites in children with folk remedies
