How Intestinal Parasites and Other Critters Can Make It Difficult to Lose Weight

?

If you are like most professional dieters, you are absolutely aware that "eating less and exercising more" is an exercise in futility. After all, if expending more calories than we consumed worked for everyone, the dieting industry would, well, starve.

But it isn't that simple.

There are many health conditions that create a hostile environment for weight loss. From thyroid disorders to oxidative stress, these conditions signal your body to hold on to fat in hopes of creating a fuel reserve that may be needed until conditions in the body are more stable.

And there are other conditions too, conditions you may not be familiar with that are sabotaging your weight loss efforts and making you feel truly unwell. Those conditions can be spawned by... intestinal parasites.

Known as the "great mimickers", parasites commonly create symptoms within its host that mimic other disease processes. During an interview with chiropractic neurologist Dr. Shane Steadman, I learned that in addition to mimicking disease, these little suckers are often overlooked by medical professionals. This leads to mis-diagnosis and mis-treatment with prescription and other medication.

Here are a few of the symptoms that parasites can create in their host... also known as YOU:

Gas and bloating

Reflux and indigestion

Diarrhea and foul smelling stools

Difficulty in losing weight, or weight loss

Urinary tract infections

Vaginal infections

Skin disorders, such as eczema

Chronic fatigue or low energy

Brain fog

Achy joins

Achy muscles

Itchy feet

Anemia

Once introduced into the host, parasites change the whole digestive track in order to create an environment in which they can thrive. This change disrupts the entire gut and creates inflammation and conditions such as leaky gut syndrome.

How do they get there?

There are many modes of transportation that parasites use to get inside of you. Some common ones are:

Unwashed salads, vegetables and fruits

Undercooked meats

Unwashed hands after playing with a dog or being outside

Travel to foreign country, where water isn't treated diligently

What do you do?

To determine if parasites are, in fact, the source of your ill health, you must first be properly diagnosed. Ask your health care professional to conduct a parasite test to determine which type of parasite is to blame. Then, based on your belief system, choose an alternative medicine treatment, or as Dr. Steadman suggests, have your physician prescribe you with an appropriate anti-parasitic medication.

But be sure to treat the entire family...the parasite's family that is. Parasite's reproduce quickly so you must make sure that your treatment eliminates the grandparents and the eggs as well as the relatives in between. And be patient as some treatments can take three to six months.

Finally, be sure to receive a follow-up test to insure all of the critters are gone.
