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.
