Description
Parasites are organisms that lives off other organisms and may harm its host. Parasites thrive off different foods that are consumed and they can affect the absorption of nutrients and the effectiveness of supplements. For many years parasites were only common in a small number of countries but now parasites can be found in many locations and also in different food sources that have been contaminated, this can happen in any part of the world. People can infect themselves with parasites when eating contaminated meat or fish. Flies, for example, can carry worm eggs onto food. Protozoa, for example, can be found in salad which has been washed in contaminated water. Animal faeces can be another infection source.
Everyone in the modern world is exposed to some level of parasites but some people have a weak resistance against their attack and the parasites can take hold in the body. Factors that can lower resistance are:
Everyone in the modern world is exposed to some level of parasites but some people have a weak resistance against their attack and the parasites can take hold in the body. Factors that can lower resistance are:
- Exposure to toxins, chemicals and heavy metals
- Poor diet
- Low enzyme production
- Low HCI production
- Colon toxicity
- Stress
- Candida
Parasites can mimic other disorders, or cause no symptoms, but when they do they can include:
- Diarrhoea or constipation
- Gas, bloating and cramps
- Skin problems
- Insomnia
- Sugar cravings
- Weight loss
- Headaches/backaches etc
- Nasal drip/nose picking
- Foul smelling stools
- Food sensitivities
- Fatigue
The laboratory uses a special concentration method to detect worm eggs and larva as well as cysts of protozoa in a single stool sample; this covers most relevant parasites. Protozoa cysts are very resistant, so that even after the postal transport this is a very reliable detection method. The analysis involves a complicated procedure of concentrating and filtering the stool, which is carried out by specialists. Due to the very hardy nature of worm eggs and protozoa cysts, worms which lay eggs into the intestine and protozoa which forms cysts can be detected in this way. The test can be useful in all cases of persistent diarrhoea or alternating diarrhoea and constipation, attacks of sweating or feeling cold, possibly with fever, colicky pains, hunger attacks which alternate with times of no appetite, persistent cough, weight loss, anal itching, anaemia and symptoms following foreign travel.
