How to get rid of parasites is a question that can be solved unequivocally: by going to the pharmacy and buying anthelmintic drugs. But this option is not suitable for everyone. Someone may face the risk of infection with helminths during a trip or while vacationing in the country, someone prefers natural remedies to "chemicals" and someone does not tolerate drugs well. Fortunately, folk medicine also has effective recipes that willprovide you with a gentle and safe parasite cleanse.
It is important to remember
Before starting deworming, you still need to consult a doctor who will determine the contraindications. Even folk remedies can harm you if you have diseases of the gallbladder, pancreas, liver and kidneys, as well as hypertension.
A visit to the doctor is absolutely necessary if you feel really unwell. In case of high fever, severe muscle pain, blood in the urine and epileptic seizures, do not self-medicate, but seek medical help immediately.
Folk remedies for the treatment of parasites: before and after
Before you start using folk remedies to treat parasites, you need to clean the body. To do this, take Enterosgel for a week.
During the cleaning (regardless of what you chose - folk remedies for parasites or anthelmintic drugs) follow a diet. The basis of the diet should be vegetables, cereals and soups in weak broth. Fatty foods, dairy and fermented milk products should be kept to a minimum.
After deworming, the diet should continue for 7-10 days. During this period, it is necessary to strictly follow the rules of hygiene, since the risk of re-infection with parasites in a weakened body increases.

- Avoid unwashed food and dirty water. Always wash your hands (especially after contact with the ground), as well as vegetables and fruits; Do not drink water from unknown sources.
- Do not eat half-cooked (and especially raw) meat and fish. They can contain pork tapeworm larvae, trichinella and other parasites, so always cook meat and fish thoroughly.
- Wash your hands after contact with pets - cats and dogs. Pets can infect you with dipylidia, toxoplasmosis and other infections.
- When traveling to tropical countries, stock up on hand sanitizers and antibacterial wipes. Do not walk barefoot or swim in unfamiliar sweet bodies of water.
