A study by the American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene shows that in a sample of 2896 persons, representative of the national population, 32% of subjects had a positive test for parasites.
When we know that parasites are life forms with their own intelligence and their survival depends on not being identified. One can imagine that the percentage of the population have parasites may be much larger.

What is a parasite?
A parasite is an organism that lives at the expense of another organism and insidiously eats his depends. That means it draws on reserves of energy from its host and causes more damage ranging from poisoning to the destruction of the body that hosts it. In most cases it can live for years in an organization without his presence is never suspected.

How are they transmitted?
The modes of transmission of parasites are innumerable. To mention only the most common food both animal and vegetarian: too little meat cooked fish, especially sushi, fruit and vegetables (even organic, can come from contaminated soil, where they may be contaminated during transport or handling), water, pets, sand, biting insects, etc..

Action of parasites in the body
According to Dr. Elson Haas, MD Director of California’s Preventive Medical Center of Marin, parasites are responsible for inflammation of the lining of the digestive system, which has the effect of disrupting the absorption of essential nutrients such as vitamins, minerals, essential fatty acids and other nutrients necessary to ensure proper functioning hormonal balance in glucose metabolism.

Parasites acidify the body and to defend the body begins to turn to produce more acid in the fat cells and slowing metabolism. According to researcher Robert O. Dr. Young, this makes weight loss almost impossible.

Dr. Dean, MD, ND adds that the parasite produces catalytic indoles, and other toxins, strongly requesting the liver and kidneys. These bodies end up being rapidly depleted and this leads to the person with a feeling of fatigue, irritability and weight gain.
