Get Rid of the Parasite Paradise With Opti-Para Nutrients
January 27, 2020 Puzzle Piece
The
gastrointestinal (GI) tract can be considered the main receiving,
processing and delivery route of the body. It is also 80-90 % of the
immune system! Parasites are destructive to the GI System and beyond!
It begins at the oral cavity. Food items, nutrients, and liquids are
ingested and carried down to the stomach. The stomach begins digestion
and prepares ingested matter for transport to the small intestines,
where processing and delivery to the bloodstream take place.
Indigestible units and leftover fiber continue to the large intestine,
where recycling and recovery of some water and nutrients occur. Solid
waste is then moved on down and exits.
Ideally, only healthful nutrition and beneficial microbes would make the
journey. However, it is well known that “stowaways”, such as toxins,
parasites, yeast, and pathogenic bacteria hitch a ride, infest and
infect. They often hide in secluded areas to start their life cycles at
our expense.
Parasites can be ingested along with contaminated water, food or
preparers hands. Parasites are known to live in, on, or leech off a host
organism, usurping their resources and energy and leaving deadly waste
products.
The estimates of the burden of parasites and their impact include:
- More
than 300,000 people living in the United States are infected with
Trypanosoma cruzi, the parasite that causes Chagas disease, and more
than 300 infected babies are born every year.
- There are at least 1,000 hospitalizations for symptomatic cysticercosis per year in the United States.
- At
least 14 percent of the U.S. population has been exposed to Toxocara,
the parasite that causes toxocariasis, and each year at least 70
people—most of them children—are blinded by resulting eye disease.
- More
than 60 million people in the United States are chronically infected
with Toxoplasma gondii, the parasite that causes toxoplasmosis; new
infections in pregnant women can lead to birth defects and infections in
those with compromised immune systems can be fatal.
- Trichomoniasis
can cause pregnancy problems and increase the risk of other sexually
transmitted infections, including HIV. The Trichomonas parasite is
extremely common, affecting 3.7 million people in the United States
These are just a very few of the many parasites that can affect us.
Once a person is infected with a parasite, it is very easy to pass it
along. If you have a parasite and do not wash your hands after using the
restroom, you can easily pass microscopic parasite eggs onto anything
you touch. It is also very easy to contract a parasite when handling
animals.
Signs of Being Contaminated
- Nausea
- Lack of appetite
- Diarrhea
- Abdominal pain
- Weight loss
- General weakness
- Unexplained constipation, diarrhea, gas, or other symptoms of IBS
- Trouble falling asleep or wake up multiple times during the night
- Skin irritation or unexplained rash, hives, rosacea, or eczema
- Grinding your teeth in your sleep
- Pain or aching in your muscles or joints
- Fatigue, exhaustion, depression, or frequent feeling of apathy
- Never feeling satisfied or full after your meals
- Anemia
- Traveled internationally and getting traveler’s diarrhea while abroad
- History of food poisoning and ‘your digestion has not been the same since’
Anti-Parasite Nutrients
Medicinal plants have been used throughout history to maintain the
health, integrity, and security of the GI tract to address the presence
of parasites. The modern discipline of pharmacognosy has identified
specific chemicals within many medicinal plants that appear to be active
molecules, particularly terpenes, alkaloids, and artemisinin.
Terpenes - Originally used
to treat malaria, terpenes have been proven to arrest different types of
parasite development and inhibit growth. It has been shown to be
harmless to humans while deadly to parasites.
Alkaloids - Like bacteria,
parasites have developed resistance to drug resistance. Sophora
moorcroftiana (S. moorcroftiana) is an alkaloid shrub that grows in
Tibet Plateau of China. Decoction of the seeds has been used as a
traditional Tibetan medicine to treat parasitosis for years. It acts as
helminthic agent and destroys them.
Artemisinin - Derived from
sweet wormwood, this nutrient has been proven to kill and digest
parasites. It works by breaking down the parasite’s proteins and
digesting them.
OHS Opti-Para is formulated to address the health and microbial balance of the GI tract. It contains digestive enzymes from bromelain and papain as well as health-supporting herbs such as sweet
wormwood, wormseed, guarana, passionflower, and lavender. Black walnut
hull, pumpkin seed, grapefruit seed extract, oregano, and aged garlic
bulb provide additional gastrointestinal support. These nutrients
are harmless (and beneficial) to humans while poisonous to parasites,
like the theobromine in chocolate is harmless to humans yet poisonous to
dogs.
Dosing for Opti-Para
Take 2 capsules twice daily, or as directed by a health professional. It is usually best to give on an empty stomach.
Want to Be Extra Thorough? Pair Opti-Para with Opti-GI
The key to removing parasites is to create an environment they can’t
live in, along with load your gut with nutrients proven to remove toxins
and parasites: chlorella, psyllium, licorice root, ginkgo biloba, and
pectin, found in Opti-GI.
OPTI-GI™ contains a
complementary blend of nutrients, herbs, and a probiotic yeast to
support the integrity, health, and metabolism of the gastrointestinal
tract. It also contains immunoglobulins, patented glutamine, special
pectin fibers, and powerful herbs.
Dosing for Opti-GI
Take 2 capsules daily, or as directed by a health professional.
