How to get rid of parasites is a question that can be clearly answered: go to the pharmacy and buy anthelmintic drugs. But this option is not suitable for everyone. Someone may face the risk of helminth infection during a trip or vacation in the countryside, someone basically prefers natural remedies to "chemicals", and someone has a poor tolerance to drugs. Fortunately, folk medicine also has effective recipes that allow gentle and safe cleansing from parasites.
It is important to note
Before starting deworming, you still need to consult a doctor who will determine contraindications. Even folk remedies can harm you if you suffer from gall bladder, pancreas, liver and kidney disease, as well as high blood pressure.
A visit to the doctor is absolutely necessary if you feel very unwell. In case of fever, severe muscle pain, bloody urine and epileptic seizures, do not self-medicate, but consult a doctor immediately.
Folk remedies against parasites: before and after
Before you start using folk remedies against parasites, you need to cleanse the body. To do this, take Enterosgel for a week.
During the cleansing (regardless of what you choose - folk remedies for parasites or deworming drugs), follow the diet. The basis of the diet should be vegetables, cereals and soups in weak broth. Fatty foods, dairy products, and fermented milk products should be minimized.
After deworming, the diet should be continued for 7-10 days. During this period, hygiene rules must be strictly followed, because the risk of re-infection with parasites increases in a weakened body.

How to avoid re-infection
As they say, preventing a disease is easier than treating it. In order not to pick up pinworms, lamblia, roundworms, echinococcus and other unwanted "freebies", you need to follow a few simple rules.
- Avoid unwashed food and dirty water. Always wash hands (especially after contact with soil) and vegetables and fruits; Do not drink water from an unknown source.
- Do not eat half-cooked (and especially raw) meat and fish. They may contain pork tapeworm larvae, trichinella and other parasites, so always cook meat and fish thoroughly.
- Wash hands after contact with pets - cats and dogs. Pets can infect you with dipylidia, toxoplasmosis and other infections.
- If you are traveling to tropical countries, stock up on hand sanitizer and antibacterial wipes. Do not walk barefoot or swim in unfamiliar fresh water.
