Parasites are everywhere, and they are very easy to contract from our food, water, animals, even from each other. Some parasites (eg. Pinworms) can even be transmitted through the air. Therefore, for prevention, it’s recommend that a complete cleansing be performed twice a year.

Växa’s Parasitin+ contains homeopathic medicinals which are known to be lethal antagonists to gastrointestinal and some circulatory parasites, and is engineered to effectively eliminate protozoas, flukes, roundworms and the entire body of tapeworms (including the head or scolex). Other so called anti-parasitic formulations are generally narrower in spectrum, and most are not effective against the many varieties of tapeworms. Only Parasitin+ is this effective!

What Is A Parasite?
A parasite is an organism which lives off, and generally within, a host body, such as our own body, or other living organisms, like plants and animals. They live off the “life” of another body, feeding on the nutrients, cells and organs of the host, reproducing by depositing thousands of eggs, or simply replicating by cell division, within the host’s tissues and cells.

Parasites are often mobile, “grazing” in one area of the body after another, eating the host’s cells directly or draining the best of the nutrientsfluke directly from the host’s tissues, all while secreting their fecal wastes throughout the host’s body, leaving their poisonous toxic sludge (like ammonia) behind, further taxing the host system’s abilities even more gravely. Parasites likely infect everyone. It’s estimated that as many as 85% of the world’s population is so inflicted. In fact, it’s highly likely that you are infected by one or more of over 1000 known parasites which can live in your body at any one time.

How Do We Become Infected With Parasites?
Most parasitic infections come from our food and water sources but can also be transmitted by human or animal contact. Simply petting and grooming our pets can facilitate infection, the parasites’ eggs passing from their fur to our hands, nose and mouth. Some parasites (e.g. pinworms) can even be transmitted through the air and are in the dust we breath. It’s likely, therefore, that those who live in the same household will all have the same parasitic infections, whether they are currently symptomatic or not.

There are a number of major common parasites which can live in the human host and which we should be concerned about: Protozoan, Flukes (flatworms), Roundworms and Tapeworms.

Protozoan are organisms that live in the blood, tissues and intestines. Although exceptionally small, these parasites may remain active in the human body for an entire lifetime, causing multiple complications.

Flukes (Trematodes), or flatworms, are likely the most common form of parasite found in humans worldwide. These commonly infect everyone’s intestines and other tissues including the heart, lungs, liver and kidneys. All Flukes are terribly difficult to get rid of once infected, accumulating over a period of 10 to 20 years.

The largest intestinal Fluke: Fasciolopsis buski
Fleshy, red and beef-colored, Flukes attach themselves within the giant flukemucosa of the small intestine. Living up to one year per adult organism, they proliferate easily and spread to other organs. Transmission is through unwashed vegetables, as well as fish and pork. Although they normally develop outside the body, new theories suggest that when "propyl alcohols" are used or consumed (either in foods or cosmetics), they provide the fluke with an environment which enables it to complete its entire life cycle within man. This allow the fluke to migrate throughout the body, thus infesting every tissue and organ with which it comes into contact.

Roundworms (Nematodes) include the families of hookworm, pinworm, whipworm, threadworm, etc. Commonly found in the intestines and often contracted through the skin, they, like other parasites, may migrate throughout the body and present multiple symptoms of disease.

Tapeworms (Cestodes) are generally the largest of the parasites. These segmented worms, containing 50,000 eggs within each of its 3,000-4,000 segments, can release up to one million eggs per day! Some tapeworms may live as long as 25 years and can quickly reach upwards to 10 meters/33 feet in length within the gastrointestinal tract. However, their larvae can be found in almost any organ, being capable of infecting other tissues in varying stages of its development. Parasites have survival skills which are beyond the capabilities of our Immune System, and that’s why they can generally live for years within their host.

The Dog Tapeworm: Echinococcus granulosus

Their lengths range from 3 to 9mm, and there are generally several thousands in any infected host, including man. They are often filled with water and are the cause of much bloating, and lastly alveolar hydatid disease. Eggs are laid bimonthly at the rate of 500-800 eggs per organism. Common vectors (carriers) include cats and dogs which easily pass on the parasite to humans through petting and grooming.

Tapeworm Larvae: Sparganosis mansoni
A larvae or "sparganum" of a tapeworm after it was surgically removed form a subcutaneous tape worm (fatty)mass. These adult tapeworms can reach lengths of 100cm or 40 inches. After penetrating the mucosa lining of the small intestine, they migrate systemically throughout the body, invading a variety of tissues and organs, and living for years.

The Pork Tapeworm: Taenia solium
Showing the scloex (or head) with four suckers and a double row of hooks by which it attaches pork tapeworm itself. This parasite lives within the small bowel of humans, penetrates the intestinal wall and disseminates throughout the body. It's carried by undercooked pork (Barbecue!), other contaminated foods, or by autoinfection (anus-hand-mouth) and causes cysticerosis, as the larvae infest the eye, as well as infecting the brain, leaving calcified lesions/tumors, neurocysticercosis. The average length is 3-5 meters (6-18 feet), living for many years within its host, often incubating for up to 30 years before reproducing!

How Do I Know If I Have A Parasitic Infestation?
Medical tests are available which will only detect some 50 out of 1000 different varieties of parasites, but even the effectiveness of these tests detect only about 20% of those truly infected, because parasites can take so many different physical forms within their development. These “numbers” translate to some rather abysmal confidence levels as to the accuracy of the tests, and the probability of them working correctly on you. Chances are, if you’re tested and you really are infected, you only have a 1% chance of finding out. Not very good odds to say the least!

The Different Developmental Stages (a-f) of a parasitic Blood Fluke (Schistosoma)
Parasites generally have long lives and remain undetected within the body because of their biological cunning. Complicating things even further is the fact that they regularly change their shape and chemistry (morphology) so as to avoid detection by the Immune System. Pictured above are the scanning electron micrographs of the morphological transformations (varying stages of development) of just one particular parasite (schistosome) in the course of its life: (a) Egg in human tissues, intestines and stool. (b) Miracidium in water. (c) Sprocyst in snail. (d) Cercaria in water and human skin. (e) Schistosomuium in human tissue and blood. (f) Adult worms in mesenteric veins in humans.

What Can I Do To Get Rid Of Parasites?
Unfortunately, most available pharmaceutical drugs (parasiticides) are specific for only one particular parasitic organism. And most are generally not that effective because drugs target only certain areas of the body’s metabolism, or only certain stages of parasitic development. Parasiticides are generally very toxic, even in the small doses needed, and thus, must be used carefully. Because of the cunning survival strategies of parasites, and the fact that most are motile, they can quickly migrate from the area of your body that is being medicated, to one that is not, thus, making it almost impossible for effective and complete elimination.

Parasitin+'s homeopathic formula helps to attack most major gastro-intestinal parasites, including tapeworms, roundworms, flukes and protozoans. There are no side-effects with Parasitin+. Parasitin+ is completely safe and nontoxic! Unlike other anti-parasitic medications, Parasitin+ works naturally without the harmful side-effects that may cause nausea, diarrhea, headaches, etc.
