How can worms affect the change of chair

Diarrhea can be caused by various parasites. Change of chair in connection TEM that the parasites appear directly in the digestive tract and start to eat and absorb useful body nutrients.

In consequence of this the body does not distant beneficial enzymes and secrets for the normal functioning of the intestine. Besides worms begin to release toxic and harmful substances in the body. This all leads to the acute form of diarrhea.

Diarrhea is a protective reaction of parasites to the microflora somehow recovered, but this is not happening, because you need to get rid of the cause.

Parasites that cause diarrhea

All the parasites that contribute to diarrhea, and can affect other vital organs and cause serious disease.

The main reason for the occurrence of parasites in the body is not following the rules of personal hygiene (dirty hands, unwashed fruits and vegetables, unfiltered water, and more).

In the gastrointestinal tract is inhabited by many parasites such as pinworm and roundworm (the most famous). The blood vessels they can get into any organs in the body: the brain, the liver, the stomach and even the lungs and heart. Once in the stomach, they provoke diarrhea.

Pinworms can infect the genitals, more frequently in women. Situated in the liver flukes, tapeworms, and some single-celled protozoa. In rare cases, parasites can affect the bones and muscles. More rarely, the presence of parasites in the respiratory system, but such cases are not an exception.

The treatment of diarrhoea and its causes

Diarrhea refers not to disease, and often symptoms. Treatment depends on the diagnosis. For example, if the body is bacteria and worms, you should take antibiotics. In other disease they may not completely go, and the disease is not only not cure, but worsen twice.

But there is a comprehensive approach, how to treat diarrhea, regardless of its causes.

Should refuse raw vegetables and fruits, dried fruits and other products that contribute to the thinning of the chair.

Another important factor during diarrhoea is loss of fluid (dehydration).

Out of the human body is not only water, but also the elements that are necessary for the normal functioning of all organs. In order to make up for the lost substances should drink decoctions of herbs (chamomile, St. John's wort, Rowan, wild cherry and others).

We have found that diarrhea may occur for many reasons. Probiotics are used in case of any diarrhea due to the intestinal microflora. To restore it use them. They not only restore the flora, but also destroy pathogens, relieve the body of toxins, have a positive effect on the mucosa of the stomach and intestines, increase the beneficial bacteria and restore the immune system.
