Parasites

      Parasites are finally being recognized as the main cause for many 
undiagnosed  diseases. There are more than 130 different kinds of parasites 
that use the human  body as their host. They range in size from microscopic to 
single and multi-celled  worms. 
The  symptoms that can occur through an infection with fungi or parasites are 
frequently  identical to those of a bacterial or viral infection. This gives 
rise to false  diagnoses time and again, resulting in ineffective treatments. 
Parasites are one  of the primary underlying causes for diseases and are the 
most basic cause for  a compromised immune system.

 Experts  now consider parasites as the missing diagnoses in the genesis of 
many chronic  health problems. They call it a silent epidemic, of which most 
doctors are not  aware. Yet, its recognition will finally solve the mystery of 
many chronic diseases.

  In  1976, the Center for Disease Control (CDC) in America conducted the first 
and  so far only nationwide survey on the infestation of parasites in the 
entire population.  It is revealed that 1 in every 6 people was harboring 1 or 
more types of parasites.  In some cases the estimate goes as high as 8 out of 
10 patients being infected.  According to other estimations, half of all 
Americans will become hosts to parasites  at one point in their lives.

 The  increases in infestations are due to increased international travel, 
immigration  and the importation of foods including fruits and vegetables from 
overseas and  infected water. Grapefruit seed extract is an extremely effective 
meat, fruit  and vegetable wash. Today parasites are becoming more of a threat 
than in the  past due to the importation of more and more products from 
overseas. See: Fruit,  meat & vegetable wash. Other factors  are the growing 
popularity of exotic restaurants that serve raw or undercooked  dishes. 

 Parasites  can gain entrance into the body in a wide variety of ways. Through 
the foods we  eat such as produce, undercooked meats and infected water. Even 
the air we breathe  can carry microscopic parasites and fungi. Pets are hosts 
to numerous parasites.  Dogs can transmit 65 and cats about 40 contagious 
diseases to human beings. 

  Most invaders live  in the digestive tract. Closely followed by the blood and 
lymphatic systems. Those  who live in the intestines frequently cause digestive 
problems like flatulence;  gas, constipation or diarrhea. They are capable of 
producing a condition of malnutrition  with the result of fatigue, apathy, 
depression, lack of concentration, poor memory  and much more. Furthermore 
parasites can irritate, inflame and perforate the intestinal  lining. 
Perforation increases the permeability of the intestinal walls and large  
undigested molecules can pass into the blood stream. This results in food 
allergies.  Thus allowing parasites to gain entrance into the blood stream.
