Do you have any of the following symptoms?:
- Bloating
- Gas
- Constipation
- Grind teeth at night
- Allergies
- Diarrhea
- Nausea
If so, you may have an intestinal parasite! If you suspect you have a parasite there a few natural ways to get rid of them.
79 children living in Brazil were given a single dose of vitamin A in the ranges of 100,000 IU if under the age of 12 and 200,000 IU if older than 12. One month after treatment the number of children with a new parasite was significantly lower in the vitamin A group versus the placebo group.
Vitamin A is vital for immune system function and can protect you against infections.
Sixty Nigerian children with parasites were given an elixir containing papaya seed extract. 7 days after treatment stool tests came back negative for parasites in 77% of the children. There were no adverse effects reported. Researchers were able to identify the types of parasites eradicated which included: Ascaris lumbricoides, Entamoeba histolytica, Necator americanus, Stronyloides stercoralis, Trichuris trichiura, Giardia lamblia and Taenia saginata.
Papaya seeds have compounds that can kill parasites and amoebas and have been used in folk medicine to treat such conditions. Medication is the most accepted form of treatment but the study above reveals a viable alternative to treatment. The exact dose of papaya extract was 20ml containing 4 grams of seeds per 20ml.
If you have any of the symptoms above they could be the result of a parasite in your intestines. These are best identified on a stool test through Metametrix Clinical Laboratory. Fortunately, nature has given us what we need to get rid of these nasty critters!
