How To Tell If You Have Parasites?
American-Doctors-Conclude-That-Parasites-Are-Eating-Us-Alive!
The World Health Organization (WHO) classifies parasites as among the six most dangerous diseases that infect humans. Parasites outrank cancer as the number one global killer, and account for many of the digestive woes from which people suffer. In this post we will attempt to list some common means parasites can be transmitted to humans, the symptoms of a parasitic infestation, and how to tell if you have parasites.
Parasites can be contracted through various means, including walking barefoot on contaminated soil, ingestion of larvae from partially cooked meat or fish, imported contaminated food, improperly washed food, improper disposal of animal or pet waste, unwashed surfaces being in contact with raw meat, mosquito bites, contact with infected person etc. Some types of parasites can pass through skin if we swim in water which harbors them. Parasites may be categorized into four major categories: nematoda, cestoda, trematoda and protozoa.
Parasites in USA
The prevailing perception is that parasitic problems only occur in third world countries. Parasites are more common in USA than most people think. Dr. Ross Anderson, after 20 years of experience with over 20,000 patients, has concluded that parasites are one of the most undiagnosed health challenges in the U.S. They live on the toxic waste in our body which makes them a ‘terrain’ issue. If a person is in a stressed state, the body is programmed to shunt blood and energy away from the digestive tract in favor of the skeletal muscles and brain. Insufficient production of hydrogen chloride by the stomach limits protein digestion and allows parasites and their eggs to pass into the intestines and be absorbed into the blood stream.
Most doctors in USA are not trained to look for them and some lab tests miss them. The symptoms you may experience depend on the type of parasite involved and the severity of the infestation. In some cases there may be no perceptible symptoms. Worm infestations can range from mild to severe, even life threatening, particularly in children in whom they can result in growth problems. Parasite can be behind many illnesses even in adults. A prolonged infestation of a parasite can deeply affect you with any of these symptoms depending on the type.
