Parasite Infestation: How to “Evict” Human Parasites

“What’s eating you?” This is a common expression that may be more appropriate than we realize!

It’s becoming general knowledge in both the medical and natural health community that approximately 85% of the world population has various parasites living deep inside them, and very often more than one at a time! People are no more immune in the United States than anywhere else.

Eradicating parasites from the human population begins with educating the public about where each type of parasite comes from, and how to prevent picking up the parasite in the first place. For example, there are thousands of different types of roundworms and these roundworms are transmitted in several ways. Most types of roundworms are found in the soil. Since humans typically acquire roundworms through the soil, good hygiene is a main way to prevent a parasitic infestation.

Many people have heard of a terrible affliction called elephantiasis, an extreme swelling and thickening of the skin caused by a roundworm you can “catch” from a mosquito bite (but it is extremely rare in North America). Therefore, avoiding mosquito bites in tropical regions of Asia, Africa, South America, etc. will help you avoid the roundworm that is responsible for elephantiasis.

A third example is the trichinella spiralis roundworm, which is transmitted by eating undercooked or raw pork and wild game. Once the trichinella spiralis roundworm moves into your body, the infection is called trichinosis. Trichinosis starts in the intestines where it causes a stomach ache, heartburn, and other stomach-related ailments. Later, as trichinosis spreads to other parts of the body, it triggers more symptoms like headache, joint pain, muscle pain, and fever. The best way to prevent trichinosis is by cooking wild game meat and pork meat thoroughly, until juices run clear.
