Blastocystis Hominis

Blastocystis hominiBlastocystis Hominis--a common organism found in the intestinal tract of most people-- was thought to be just a harmless organism, like Candida. But as it turns out it can turn into a dangerous disease-producing organism.

Blastocystis is generally considered to be a weak parasite. It attacks those people who have a weakened immune system or a very weakened digestive tract. Blastocystis, many times, is totally unsuspected as being the cause or connection with somebody's digestive illness, because many labs do not know to test for it, or do not even know that it is now considered harmful. It is quite common to find Blastocystis in conjunction with other parasites, see also candida or harmful bacteria.

Blastocystis and it's environment

Blastocystis does it deadliest work when in combination with other parasites, harmful bacteria, and fungus. In a case where someone may have parasites or candida or harmful bacteria, we always find the Blastocystis is the last to leave. Because Blastocystis needs the help of other parasites, candida or harmful bacteria in order to create an effect on your body, the proper approach demands that we first kill the organisms which are its allies and help it, because this renders the Blastocystis helpless and less able to create irritation to our systems. After we have killed the candida, parasites and harmful bacteria, we then focus our attack on the Blastocystis. Having no allies, we find it much more amenable to being killed and eliminated.

Symptoms and problems

Blastocystis on its own, in the average healthy person, may produce no symptoms at all. However, in a person with weakened digestion or weakened immune response, Blastocystis can produce a host of symptoms which appear to come and go and are very unpredictable. THIS IS THE KEY THING ABOUT BLASTOCYSTIS HOMINIS:
Anyone who has gastronintestinal, allergic, skin or immune problems which seem to come and go, on and off, without making much sense, should suspect that he may have Blastocystis homminis. The reason for this is blastocystis homminis attacks the body and creates trouble when you're under stress or weakened. The moment your body picks up a little it may not be able to affect you!

It's been found that many people who have this organism have many different kinds of digestive complaints--allergies, immune system difficulties, skin problems, and bowel problems. Blastocystis is a very peculiar organism in that it especially likes grains. Many people with Blastocystis may have grain allergies or difficulties tolerating grains.

It sometimes occurs that people will eliminate all symptoms of the Blastocystis while still retaining it. This is due to the fact that when the immune system of the intestinal tract is strengthened, the Blastocystis is weakened and has little effect. It is possible to still have Blastocystis in your intestines, yet suffer no effects of it, by doing this procedure. It is of course much better to eliminate the Blastocystis fully from your body, but if this is not possible, the next best thing is definitely to be symptom-free.

Some people have no symptoms return from the Blastocystis, when their stool tests indicates that there still is (occasional Blastocystis). In this case it is necessary to maintain some of the herbs, digestive enzymes, and bowel cleansers to keep the intestinal tract in good enough shape to withstand any influence the Blastocystis may have.

Diagnosis

A simple stool test generally confirms Blastocystis.

Keep in mind that there are many factors influencing the Blastocystis and that if your symptoms don't disappear it might not be Blastocystis. Definitely have another test done after you did all of the above suggestions.

Read all about colon cleansing, educate yourself. Some people think they can stay on junk food and eliminate Blastocystis. This is not possible. You have to decide what is more important to you. Your food addictions or your health.

Treatement

Blastocystis is very difficult to get rid of. It hides in the intestinal mucus, sticks and hold on very hard to your intestinal membranes, making elimination very difficult.

Common treatment for Blastocystis medically would include Flagyl and other drugs. However, they are not to be of preference due to the fact that Blastocystis is so hard to eliminate. Medical drugs which are highly toxic may have to be taken for long periods of time in order to fully eliminate it. The length of time that one may need to take the medical drug may actually cause damage to one's liver or kidneys. Therefore, a slower, natural approach is definitely desirable. Several approaches are necessary in order to eliminate Blastocystis.

We had the quickest success with doing the 'Bacteria Cleanse' combined with a fast. As well as traditional Parasite Herbs

Certain herbs have been found to be effective against it. These can be taken together as one treatment for 14 days:buy parasite herbs
Black Walnut, 300mg, 3 caps, 3x day or Tincture: 2 tsp 3x day
Wormwood, 500mg, 4 caps, 4x day
Cloves, 300 mg, 3 caps 3x day
Oil of Oregano, 5 drops in veg caps, 3x day
Olive leaf extract 350mg 2 caps 3x day

Other herbs you might want to try should be rotated--meaning taken by themselves for a period of 1-2 weeks, then stopped, a new one introduced and taken for 1-2 weeks, stopped, and then another new one introduced, etc. In this way, the Blastocystis will not build up an immunity to any of these items.

Colon cleanses or coffee enema are necessary in order to eliminate Blastocystis. The reason for this is the old mucus or old fecal matter lining the intestinal tract must be broken down and eliminated to physically wash out the Blastocystis and then to allow the herbs to make full contact with the Blastocystis, which may be stuck to the intestinal lining.
Colonics or enemas are very important to eliminate Blastocystis.
You can also put the herbs directly in an enema. This allows the herbal substances to contact the Blastocystis in the bowel, and destroy it. Buy enema kit and organic coffee.

Like with most parasites, starving it to death is an option: see fasting! Once your system is cleaned out, your immunesystem will also work better and attack whatever is left over.

Fat-splitting or fat-digesting enzymes are also very important with Blastocystis. When studied under the microscope, Blastocystis seems to have a fatty reservoir. Fat-splitting or fat-digesting enzymes are helpful to dissolve some of the Blastocystis and weaken it, thereby allowing the herbal substances to have greater attack.

IMPORTANT: you must also treat any other parasite, fungus, bacteria that supports the blastocystis. We had the quickest success with doing the 'Bacteria Cleanse' combined with a fast. As well as traditional Parasite Herbs . Buy Bacteria Cleanse Products

Prevention

Blastocystis is transmitted through contaminated drinking water as well as fecal-oral transmission.

It is therefore important to filter all your water with a high quality filter. Don't drink rain water if it is not filtered.
