This is a topic that people don't want to talk about it!

You will be disgusted looking through a magnifying glass at the variety of parasite worms in your body. Nine of out ten people in North America due to the wrong diet, junk food, pop drinks, processed food harbour one or more parasites! Is this not shocking news?

What are the Symptoms?

There is a parasite connection to many common health problems experienced by children and  adults in North America. Parasites compete with the digestive system for nutrients including vitamins, minerals and amino acids. Usually, parasites that enter through the digestive tract cause loss of appetite, stomach and abdominal discomfort, cramping, nausea, fatigue, itching, diarrhoea, vomiting, irritation, sleep disturbance, bloating, weight loss, changes in stool. Malaria is a very serious tropical parasitic infection that is contracted through mosquito bites.

What are the Causes?

The incidence of parasitic  diseases is not only skyrocketing because of increases in international travel and immigration, but also because of contamination of the water and food supply, widespread use of day care centers that help spread microbes, household pets, the overuse of chemicals, mercury and prescription antibiotics. Antibiotics kill off the body's population of friendly bacteria which offer some protection against parasitic infestation.

Parasites worms living in your guts sucking away your health and vitality. These worms can feast  on your blood and nutrients. One of the easiest ways to  contract parasites by eating raw food or low cooked food, especially meat and fish. Tape worm eggs can contaminate drinking water, even worse our beloved pets can pass tape worms eggs too.

Intestinal parasites create health & skin problems, make you sick and can sometimes kill, especially in less developed countries. Some of the most common in the United States include Enterobius vermicularis, giardia lamblia and Necator americanus.  Enterobius vermicularis is also known as pin worm.

The discussion of diarrhoea brings up the question of parasites because chronic diarrhoea is often due to the presence of parasites in the system. Intestinal parasites thrive in filthy  environments. The many varieties of intestinal worms lodge themselves in the old matter that encrusts the walls of the intestinal tract. Without the presence of stagnant material to embed themselves in, many intestinal parasites cannot maintain a foothold in the body. Remove this old, putrid, decaying mucoid matter and you will flush these parasites out as well.

Samples of Intestinal worms

Pinworm: Humans are particularly the only host of pinworm, the most intestinal parasite seen among children in the United States. It is estimated that between15 - 40 percent of all children are affected at some time during  the first 12 years of life. Although children are particularly likely to  be affected, adults sometime harbour the parasites, especially if the children in  the household have pinworms. Living in the rectum of humans, female pinworms leave the intestine through the anus and deposit eggs on the surrounding skin causing itching around the anus and disturbed sleep.

Dog roundworm: Toxocariasis is caused by larvae of Toxocara cans and less frequently of T. cati (cat roundworm), two nematode parasites in animals. Most people never realize they have been infected since rarely symptoms appear. Infection occurs mostly in preschool children because they play in dirt frequented by pets. After infection the larvae invade the liver, heart, lungs, brain, muscle and cause various symptoms including fever, anorexia, weight loss, cough, wheezing and rashes. Only rarely does someone die from infection and then only if the heart, arteries or nervous system is attacked.

Whip worm: Usually showing no symptoms, heavy infection of whip worm (Ascaris lumbricoides), especially in small children can cause gastrointestinal problems (abdominal pain, diarrhoea, rectal prolapse) and possibly growth retardation. Whip worm is the largest nematode parasitizing  human intestine.

Is Neem the Answer?

Historically neem as a common Ayurvedic aid in preventing and ridding the human body of all kinds of parasites. People regularly drink neem tea from the leaves as a prophylactic measure to get rid of intestinal parasites. Other neem products  available are: neem extract, neem tea, neem tincture, neem tablets, neem capsules, neem juice. Neem teas are recognized in Ayurveda as an  anthelmintic (kills intestinal worms) and are regularly used throughout  the tropics to rid the body of intestinal worms.  Neem leaf teas twice per day for one week is the usual method for eliminating these parasites from the body. For childhood pinworms apply neem oil to the anal opening for relief from itching.

Compounds in neem inhibit the parasites ability to feed, thus interrupting their life cycle and preventing new parasites from hatching. Neem extract hormone mimic that interfere with the life cycle of parasites, inhibit their ability to feed and prevent eggs from hatching.

Nematodes: Nematodes are characterized as tiny, worm like, multiple cellular animals living in the water. Found majority in fresh water, oceans, soil and plants. Neem proves to be an effective nematode controller. Worldwide researchers have supported this fact. Neem products are effective on various types of nematodes. Nematodes are the most difficult to control. Even the water left after the  extraction from neem seeds is nematocidal.  The various forms of neem which are nematodes controller: Neem leave, Neem cake, Neem choir and neem oil.

Neem has been used to treat many conditions for  thousands of years, neem twigs to clean the teeth and gums instead of a toothbrush, use it externally as a poultice, or swallow neem supplements, neem tablets, tinctures, tea, juice, capsules, warning: all of them have a very bitter taste! In a tea ad neem honey.

Ayurvedic doctors consider neem generally safe for most people and is purported to kill parasites and pathogens. However, if you are pregnant nurturing or have other health conditions, discuss the use of neem with your doctor or health practitioner. Neem and other herbal remedies may also interact with prescription drugs.
