Helminthiasis is a large group of diseases worldwide. Even more cases of worm infection are not diagnosed because they are asymptomatic. Clinical signs of worm disease do not occur with a small number of parasites, and in the case of their activity in the human body, symptoms can be "masked" in other diseases, and the diagnosis of helminthiasis will be significantly more difficult.
At the same time, the most important thing in the successful treatment of such diseases is the timely start of therapy, because worms in humans are not harmless "cohabitants" in the body. Multicellular parasites significantly disrupt vital processes: they multiply and penetrate into various organs of the human body, which negatively affects their work. Worm waste products are poisons and toxins for the human body. In addition to direct toxic effects, they slow down the penetration of nutrients into the bloodstream necessary for life and development.
Traditional medicine is an effective form of alternative therapy, recipes for which are passed down from generation to generation in order to maintain the most effective treatment options. Therefore, successful methods have survived to this day and are successfully used to treat many diseases, including worms.
Advantages of folk remedies used for earthworms
Despite the widespread development of pharmaceutical techniques, there is nothing more natural than the folk remedy for worms, which was tested several generations before it reached us and proved its effectiveness.
Among the main advantages of folk remedies are:
- ability to remove worms by improvised means;
- lack of unnatural exposure to chemicals;
- relative safety for health;
- minimal risk of allergic reactions;
- natural ingredients do not contain additives that can adversely affect the body;
- absence of counterfeits and other risks of poor quality production of anti-worm drugs;
- accessibility to every person - most recipes for folk remedies can be repeated at home from ingredients that everyone has in the kitchen;
- you can buy all the medicinal herbs in a pharmacy or phyto-pharmacy without a prescription - it saves a lot of time and effort.
It should also be borne in mind that alternative medicine is a combination of the forces of man and nature, so such treatment will not only effectively get rid of worms, but will give strength and energy to the body.
Preparation for treatment with proven worm medications
Despite the safety of traditional medicine, a number of procedures are required before starting treatment. This will help improve the effectiveness of the worm removal method.
First of all, it is important to make a correct diagnosis. It is recommended not only to confirm the presence of helminthiasis, but also to determine the specific type of worm. Most natural remedies are universal against flatworms and roundworms, but some methods differ in their specific action. It is important to pass appropriate tests of feces or blood in order to determine the correct diagnosis, as well as to monitor the result of treatment: a repeated test should be negative in case of successful anthelmintic therapy with folk remedies.
In addition, the body must be prepared for the course of treatment: clean it as much as possible of toxic metabolic products before getting rid of the worm. You should give up fatty, salty and sweet foods, adhere to hypoallergenic and therapeutic diets, which will reduce the load on the immune system.
You also need to protect yourself and consult a specialist in advance. Only a doctor will be able to determine in a specific way the absence of contraindications for the treatment of worms, because he will take into account all the diseases and characteristics of the human body. After thorough preparation for therapy and approval by a doctor, you can begin to practice your chosen method of alternative medicine.
Herbs and spices that you can use to remove worms
Herbal remedies for various worms are still one of the most popular groups of remedies in alternative medicine. Medicinal herbs served as the main remedy for all diseases in all countries of the world even before the development of the pharmaceutical industry.
Most modern pharmaceutical drugs for parasites are made from medicinal herbs. They form the basis of the active substance of tablets and other dosage forms. However, in the process of chemical processing, some of the useful properties of herbal medicines are lost, so the effectiveness of medicinal herbs in the fight against industrial worms is much lower than natural medicines.
Herbal infusions and decoctions
Infusions are prepared by adding hot or cold water to the medicinal plant, followed by the time of preparation. The period of "infusion" is determined by the properties of the plant. It is important that you strictly follow the recipe so that the infusion really has the indicated healing properties.
In the process of preparing a decoction of worms, you need to boil the solution, cook the plant on low heat for some time so that the agent reveals its therapeutic properties.
Of the anthelmintic plants for the preparation of beverages and decoctions for the infected person are most often used tansy, wormwood, cloves, wild garlic, dandelion, geranium, centaury and combined herbal preparations.
Dance
Representatives of this genus of perennial herbaceous plants and shrubs have long been used for medicinal purposes.

Sagebrush
This perennial plant is known for its bitter smell and specific taste. Wormwood has been used in medicine for centuries. Due to the irritating effect of the taste buds of the oral cavity, the excretory work of the gastrointestinal tract is enhanced. It promotes the production of gastric juices, bile and pancreatic secretions.
The recipe for the decoction is as follows: the dried plant needs to be ground in a coffee grinder, and then 2 teaspoons of dry matter are poured over 1. 5 cups of boiling water. The resulting product should be left in a thermos or covered with a towel, and after 6-8 hours strain the infusion.
The decoction to combat worms should be divided into three parts and drunk in the morning before meals an hour and a half. The procedure should be repeated every morning for 2-3 weeks, depending on the severity of the helminthiasis, in order to completely remove the worms.
Carnation
The spice, which is often used in various recipes, is highly valued for its multiple healing effects. Dried clove buds are used to remove toxins, to stimulate the gastrointestinal tract and to normalize digestive processes. In addition to the beneficial gastroenterological effect, preparations based on cloves have a pronounced immunomodulatory effect, activating non-specific immune defense mechanisms. The use of clove infusion is effective against worms. In addition, it normalizes the work of all organs of the gastrointestinal tract.
To prepare the remedy for most worms, 30 g of buds are poured over boiling water in a volume of 0, 5 liters and left to cool completely.

The scheme of anthelmintic therapy with alcoholic solution of cloves for humans consists of taking a teaspoon of tincture before meals for several weeks.
Also, dried cloves to fight worms can be crushed and taken dry according to the following scheme: the first day - 0, 5 g after meals, and then add 0, 5 g every day. The duration of treatment is 6 days.
Ramson
The plant known as "bear onion" increases appetite, enhances the secretion of gastrointestinal glands, improves bowel motility.

From this plant, you can find a ready-made dry base for decoction to get rid of worms quickly.
Dandelion
You can make a healthy salad from the first leaves of this plant, and the stems are useful for infusion.
The recipe assumes the following proportions: 1 teaspoon of dried stems pour a glass of boiling water, leave for an hour and strain. The phytopreparation is taken in a quarter cup 4 times a day 30 minutes before meals.
Drying of crushed dandelion root makes it a great alternative to pharmaceutical products to control worms at any time of the year. Dandelion root powder should be taken a pinch three times a week, half an hour before meals. It is important to drink it with plenty of water.
Pelargonium
This plant is used in gastroenterology for the treatment of intestinal ailments, ulcers of the gastric and intestinal mucosa and other diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. The effectiveness of geraniums against various types of worms in humans, especially pinworm and ascaris, has also been proven.
Centaury
The plant quickly helps to get rid of all kinds of parasites. It is also used to treat various types of cholecystitis, chronic gastritis and ulcerative defects in the mucous membranes of the gastrointestinal tract. Therefore, such a drug will be an excellent alternative to most drugs for complex pathology of the gastrointestinal tract.
Combined herbal preparations
Natural preparations of several plants are also used for parasitosis. They provide a complex effect and allow you to get rid of parasites quickly. For example, such a collection may include a combination of tansy, wormwood and chamomile. Each of these components fights worms, which gives a powerful triple effect of the drug. Chamomile further soothes inflammation, promotes rapid recovery of the human gastrointestinal tract after worm infection.
The recipe for the infusion is simple: pour 1 tablespoon of the dried collection with a glass of boiling water, and then leave it to cool and settle overnight. You can start treatment in the morning: it is necessary to drink 1 glass of medicine, and then cook the next part for the evening. The duration of such treatment for worms is 3 days.
Garlic and onions will help remove worms
These plants belong to the same species and therefore have a similar effect on various diseases, including worm infection. Onions and garlic contain phytoncides - active substances that have fungicidal, antimalarial, antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory effects.
The amino acid aliin was found in garlic, which is converted into allicin in the process of biochemical reactions. It is this substance that has a strong bactericidal and antifungal effect, and also cures worms. This and many other beneficial effects of garlic have long been used in alternative medicine in various epochs, starting from the time of ancient Egypt.
Garlic is used in several versions, depending on the type of helminthiasis and its severity. For example, garlic can be used internally - just eat a few cloves. Experts recommend adding garlic to all dishes. You can safely eat up to 6 cloves of garlic a day. This dose will only bring health benefits.
Garlic decoction in milk is another version of the medicinal composition that is effective in the fight against worms. To prepare 3-4 cloves of garlic, pour a glass of milk, then boil and cook for about 20 minutes. The resulting broth is cooled and filtered through a sieve or gauze. Drinking such a worm medicine is necessary every day.
Another option for using garlic broth in milk is a medical enema. To treat a worm infection, a whole head of garlic is added to a glass of milk, then boiled until softened and filtered. The cooled solution is used as a medical composition for microenemas. The procedure is performed daily for 7 days.
It is important to ensure that the product is not heat-treated before use for medical purposes, because allicin is active only when raw garlic is consumed.
You can also get rid of worms at home with the help of preparations based on ordinary onions. The active components of onion soup will help to quickly remove worms in the phase of eggs and adult worms and their waste products.
One of the simplest recipes is to chop 1 onion and pour boiling water over it, then leave it to stand for a day. After that, the drug against worm infection is filtered and taken in a dose of 0, 5 cups in the morning on an empty stomach for 3-4 days.
For the second recipe, 1 onion must be finely chopped and put in a thermos, pour boiling water for at least 2 hours. Worm medicine should be consumed in the morning on an empty stomach, 0, 5 cups 10 days. Taking onion infusion can be combined with a spoonful of honey, which compensates for the unusual taste of onions.
Pumpkin
Pumpkin seeds have many useful properties, have a beneficial effect on the gastrointestinal tract and gallbladder. Pumpkin seeds contain a rare amino acid (cucurbitin) that provides anthelmintic action. This compound has a paralytic effect on adult helminths, causing complete cessation of their vital activity.
For the treatment of an adult it is enough to take 300 g of seeds, grind them in a coffee grinder, add a tablespoon of honey and 50 ml of water. The resulting mixture is taken in the morning on an empty stomach in portions - 1 teaspoon for an hour, and after 30-60 minutes make an enema to cleanse the worms.
A nicer version of a pumpkin-based anthelmintic is a dessert made from pumpkin seeds. To remove worms, the seeds must be moistened with salt water and then fried over low heat with the addition of vegetable oil and salt.
The indicated dose should be adhered to. Excessive intake of even herbal remedies in the fight against worms can harm the body. Pumpkin seed preparation is taken in the morning on an empty stomach.
Other folk anthelmintics
If worms are found, other methods of treatment are used: fruit, papaya seeds, pineapple, bananas and many others. Let's look at them in more detail.
Fruits of trees
The fruits of various fruit and berry trees have an anthelmintic effect. For example, pear seeds have a mild effect against major human parasites, so it is recommended to eat pear along with the seeds, chew them thoroughly for maximum absorption.
Papaya seeds
Papaya seeds are an exotic analogue of pear fruit. This way to get rid of worms is not very common due to the rarity of this plant. However, papaya contains carpain, sitosterol, caricin and other biologically active substances. These chemical compounds enable the body to recover as quickly as possible after anthelmintic therapy (normalizes the work of the digestive tract). Worm seeds can be ground or eaten whole. The choice depends only on the preferences of the patients.
Pineapple
Another exotic anthelmintic is pineapple. It contains the natural component bromelain, which effectively fights the release of free radicals from tapeworms. Also, natural pineapple acid interferes with glucose metabolism - the main source of energy for worms.
Berries
Different berries also have a strong effect on earthworms.
For example, strawberries are recommended for everyone who has low acidity gastritis. You can easily add these berries to your usual diet: they will benefit the gastrointestinal tract, liver function, normalize stool, help treat urolithiasis, and will also help get rid of parasites. Strawberries have proven effective against roundworms, tapeworms, pinworms.
Due to the large amount of organic acids in their composition, cherries are effective in removing worms. The number of berries per day in the treatment of worms is not strictly limited, but it is better not to eat more than 1 cup, so as not to cause the development of gastrointestinal diseases.
Also, cherry stalks are used to prepare medicinal compositions. They become the best remedy for worms. Grind them, weigh 1 teaspoon, boil with boiling water and leave for at least 30 minutes. Then you can start drinking an infusion to fight worms.
It is recommended to consume 0, 5 cups in the morning before breakfast and in the evening. It is sometimes suggested that the daily dose be divided into 4 doses. The course of treatment is usually 7 days, then a break of 1 week is required and repeated use of the drug for all worms within 7 days. Such a phytopreparation not only stimulates the elimination of worms, but also has a tonic on the stomach, stimulates appetite and improves digestive processes.
Raw rice
Raw rice is also effective against worms. Take 1 handful of raw rice and chew it thoroughly for a long time. This manipulation should be repeated within a week.
Herring
When used properly, herring becomes an anthelmintic, so it is often used at home. For the therapeutic effect, it is necessary to eat as much herring as possible in the evening, and in the morning to supplement the effect by using 50 g of pumpkin seeds.
Honey
Another recipe for anthelmintics includes honey treatments. To do this, mix a tablespoon of the product with a glass of boiling water, and then leave to cool until warm.
Drink such a solution for earthworms on an empty stomach - once a day in the morning before breakfast. For maximum effect in the fight against worms, experts advise that after 20 minutes drink a glass of wormwood infusion, and then after 30 minutes make an enema for cleansing.
Peanut butter
Oils of walnut, macadamia and other plant components have a choleretic effect, remove various toxins from the intestine, including disruption of the vital activity of worms in the human body.
Herbal enema
An anthelmintic enema has long been recognized as the best way to cleanse the gut as well as for quick healing.
The same herbal preparations are used for enemas as for infusions, however, the proportions in the recipes may differ. For example, to prepare a useful infusion for worms, dried tansy flowers should be poured boiling water in the following ratio: 1 teaspoon of herbs in half a glass of water. After 3 hours of infusion, the solution can be filtered, and for use as an enema can be heated in a water bath. The infusion is injected into the rectum at night. The duration of treatment for worms is 7 days.
Rules for placing enemas with phytopreparations:
- Many techniques involve the preliminary use of cleansing enemas. This tool is needed for thorough bowel cleansing and preparation of the gastrointestinal tract for the effects of therapeutic enema from worms.
- It is necessary to filter the agent well and make sure that no plant particles remain in the solution. Under the pressure of enemas, small remnants of the stem or inflorescence can enter the intestine, causing irritation of the mucosa or even disruption of its integrity.
- It is important that the enema solution is warm and that it corresponds to the body temperature - around 36-37 degrees. This will ensure a mild effect of traditional medicine on the intestinal mucosa and the maximum therapeutic effect: at this temperature better "discover" the beneficial properties of herbs.
- The number of medical enema sessions is determined individually, depending on the degree of worm infestation and the type of worm.
The advantage of enemas is that this method of administration does not have a negative effect on the gastric mucosa, liver and kidneys. Acting locally, the worm enema drug promotes a rapid onset of therapeutic effect and ensures the absence of generalized side effects.
Prevention of folk remedies
Traditional medicine is effective not only for treating worm infections, but also for preventing worms from entering the body. To do this, it is important to adhere to a healthy diet, periodically adding to the diet any herbal medicine with proven effectiveness as a preventive measure against most earthworms.
These foods include high-fiber vegetables such as cabbage, pumpkin, pumpkin, cucumber, as well as onions and garlic. Every day, everyone is recommended to add greens to their dishes - dill, parsley, green onions. Raw pumpkin seeds are a great way to prevent worms if consumed daily on an empty stomach, chewing the seeds thoroughly. Fresh carrot juice also prevents parasitic diseases. You can also grate root vegetables and add sour cream or vegetable oil.
It has been proven that worms can be prevented if all precautions are carefully followed:
- wash your hands thoroughly after returning from the street and using the toilet;
- always wash vegetables and fruits before meals;
- heat treat all types of meat and fish;
- watch out for dishes that contain raw fish;
- make individual meals for each person (in the family, at work);
- it is necessary to prophylactically treat animals from worms in order to prevent the development of infections with worms in them and the transmission of parasites to humans;
- do not swim in unknown bodies of water, the safety of water in which has not been proven;
