Food and water: sources of life—but also possible sources of parasites. Rid yourself of these intestinal pests and the infections they cause. According to research or other evidence, the following self-care steps may be helpful.
  • Stay hydrated

    When diarrhoea strikes, replace lost fluids and replenish electrolytes by drinking sports drinks or other rehydration solutions

  • Make prevention a priority

    When travelling to areas where parasitic infections are common, don’t drink the tap water and avoid uncooked foods, foods prepared by street vendors, ice, and fruits that cannot be peeled

  • Stop diarrhoea and reduce upset stomach with over-the-counter remedies, such as loperamide (Imodium A-D) and bismuth subsalicylate (Pepto-Bismol)

  • Try a natural treatment

    Talk to a professional about treating parasitic infections with natural anti-microbials, such as propolis, and berberine-containing herbs, including barberry, Oregon grape, goldenseal, and goldthread (Coptis chinensis)

  • Ask about medications used to kill intestinal parasites, such as mebendazole (Vermox), thiabendazole (Mintezol), and metronidazole (Flagyl), and medications used to alleviate diarrhoea, such as loperamide (Imodium) and diphenoxylate (Lomotil)
