Do we need to get rid of parasites?
Human parasitic diseases are divided into helminthiases (caused by worms) and protozoa infections (caused by protozoa). Both and the other can harm the human body.
Thus, helminthiases cause disorders in the intestine, the product of its vital activity interferes with liver function, reduces the ability to work, and in children slows physical and neuropsychic development. In addition, they contribute to the sensitization (allergies) of the body and create a good background for the development of allergic diseases. Protozoa are no less dangerous.
Trichomonas is a causative agent of sexually transmitted infections.
Giardia is especially dangerous for children, where they can cause poisoning and allergic diseases.
