Nowadays, intestinal parasites are one of the main reasons for people to consult their doctors. In fact, many suffer from them and are unaware of them due to the lack of symptoms. However, problems arise when they have the perfect environment to proliferate and are provided with the substances necessary for their survival.

Intestinal parasites can occur due to the handling of or contact with contaminated food or drinks. Below, we reveal further details about them. In addition, we suggest a simple treatment of only two ingredients that’ll allow you to eliminate them.

What are intestinal parasites?

Parasites are microorganisms that live inside the body and feed off of its resources. As their name implies, intestinal parasites live in the intestines of humans and other mammals. 

They’re generally protozoa (like giardia) or worms (threadworms or tapeworms). They enter the body through contaminated foods or drinks.

Children are often the most affected. Nevertheless, people of all ages are at risk of contracting parasites when exposed to unhygienic sanitary conditions.

What are the symptoms of a parasitic infection?

Often, the symptoms of parasitic infections are difficult to diagnose. That’s because they’re easily confused with other ailments. However, it’s important to know what they are so you can seek treatment as early as possible.

The most common symptoms are:

  • Lack of or excessive appetite (with difficulty controlling body weight).
  • Fatigue and sleep disorders.
  • Anxiety and nervousness.
  • Inflammation of the eyes.
  • Food intolerances and allergies, accompanied by diarrhea or constipation.
  • Difficulty digesting foods.
  • Irritable bowel syndrome and recurring stomach pain.
  • Itching in the anal region.
  • Constant headaches.
  • Muscle cramps and numbness of the hands and feet.

How to eliminate parasites with just two ingredients

If you’re experiencing the symptoms of an intestinal parasite infection, you should consult with your doctor for a proper diagnosis. If your doctor confirms their presence in your body, you must modify your eating habits and reduce your consumption of sugars and processed foods as much as possible.

In addition to the treatment prescribed by your doctor, you can prepare natural remedies that’ll support your digestive function without causing unwanted side effects. For example, flax seeds and cloves are both natural remedies. Indeed, they’ve become popular for their effectiveness against these microorganisms.

These two foods contain active anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and anti-parasitic compounds. They help provide relief from these types of infections before they worsen.

Flax seeds.

Flax seeds are known as a superfood due to their nutrient-rich contents. They contain essential fatty acids, dietary fiber, and antioxidants that promote digestive function.

In addition, they have a huge capacity for absorption that promotes the elimination of stored toxins from the colon. They’re also really gentle on the stomach and nourish the bacterial flora that protects the intestines from damaging agents.
