Parasitology 101 cont..
Nematodes, also called roundworms, are parasitic worms with a cylindrical, elongated body. Many species can be seen with the naked eye, while others are microscopic, such as Strongyloides stercoralis and Enterobius vermicularis(pinworm) and all microfilaria worms. Each species has its own life cycle,with intestinal worms having closely similar cycles, but one of the most notable features in several is the heart–lung migration phase..
In the case of Ascaris lumbricoides, infection begins when a person ingests eggs in contaminated food or water. The eggs hatch in the small intestine, and the larvae pe*****te the intestinal wall, enter the bloodstream, travel to the heart, and then move to the lungs. From the lungs, they migrate up the airways, are coughed into the throat, and then swallowed. They return to the intestine and mature into adult worms. Because of this migration, a dry cough is often one of the early signs of infection.
Intestinal nematodes enter the body in different ways. Some are acquired through ingestion, such as Ascaris lumbricoides and Trichuris trichiura, (whip worm)when eggs are swallowed in contaminated food or water. Others, like Enterobius vermicularis have eggs that can be airborne or found on surfaces. Some species, including hookworms and Strongyloides stercoralis, enter through the skin when their larvae pe*****te, often through bare feet. Others enter through insect bite like incase of microfilaria . Here is the summary of common habitats.
Lymphatics. -W. bancrofti
Subcutaneous tissue - O. Volvulus, L.loa
Muscles -T spirallis
Body cavities -M perstans
Blood -M.perstans
Heart- D.immitis (dog heartworm)
They cause so many diseases that affect almost all body parts.
Dracunclus medinensis is the largest (about 4 feet long) roundworm while Strongyloides are the smallest (microscopic)
Diagnosing some of this worms can be difficult. Especially with filaria worms which appear in blood at different times of the day. Some appear only at night others only during the day. That's why deworming should not rely on lab diagnostic only.

IN 1976, AN INFLUENZA OUTBREAK SWEPT THROUGH VIETNAM WITH DEVASTATING SPEED, PARTICULARLY TARGETING NURSING HOMES WHERE ELDERLY RESIDENTS WERE MOST VULNERABLE. MOST FACILITIES, LACKING ANTIVIRALS, OXYGEN, OR VENTILATORS, WATCHED HELPLESSLY AS PATIENTS SUCCUMBED TO THE VIRUS. YET IN ONE SMALL HOME, CAREGIVERS DISCOVERED A SIMPLE YET INGENIOUS METHOD TO AID THEIR RESIDENTS: POSTURAL DRAINAGE. USING NOTHING MORE THAN TOWELS, THEY CAREFULLY POSITIONED PATIENTS ON STRETCHERS OR INCLINED BEDS, SUPPORTING THEIR ABDOMENS TO ALLOW GRAVITY TO ASSIST IN CLEARING FLUID FROM THE LUNGS AND KEEPING AIRWAYS OPEN.

THE RESULTS WERE REMARKABLE. WHILE OTHER NURSING HOMES RECORDED DOZENS OF FATALITIES, THIS PARTICULAR FACILITY REPORTED NONE. THE ELDERLY RESIDENTS SURVIVED, LARGELY DUE TO THE DEDICATION, OBSERVATION, AND CREATIVITY OF THOSE TENDING TO THEM. IN A WORLD OFTEN FOCUSED ON ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY AND PHARMACEUTICALS, THIS EXAMPLE SERVES AS A POWERFUL REMINDER THAT ATTENTIVE CARE, INNOVATIVE THINKING, AND HUMAN INGENUITY CAN SOMETIMES SAVE LIVES WHEN RESOURCES ARE SCARCE.

THOUGH LARGELY UNKNOWN OUTSIDE VIETNAM, THIS STORY EXEMPLIFIES THE TIMELESS TRUTH THAT COMPASSION AND CLEVER PROBLEM-SOLVING OFTEN MAKE THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN LIFE AND DEATH. IT IS A TESTAMENT NOT JUST TO MEDICAL INSIGHT BUT TO THE QUIET HEROISM OF CAREGIVERS WHO, FACED WITH LIMITED OPTIONS, REFUSE TO YIELD TO DESPAIR. THEIR INGENUITY TURNED A DIRE SITUATION INTO ONE OF SURVIVAL AND HOPE, PROVING THAT EVEN IN THE HARSHEST CIRCUMSTANCES, HUMAN CARE—THOUGHTFUL, OBSERVANT, AND CREATIVE—CAN BE AS VITAL AS THE MOST ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY.

THIS NARRATIVE STANDS AS A LESSON ACROSS TIME: IN CRISES, RESOURCEFULNESS AND DEDICATION CAN TRIUMPH WHERE CONVENTIONAL TOOLS FALL SHORT, LEAVING A LASTING LEGACY OF COURAGE, INTELLIGENCE, AND HUMANITY.

"CINNAMON COMES FROM THE INNER BARK OF SEVERAL TREE SPECIES AND CAN ABSORB LEAD FROM THE SOIL IN WHICH IT'S GROWN, AND THE SOIL CAN BE CONTAMINATED WITH LEAD FROM INDUSTRIAL BYPRODUCTS," HE EXPLAINED. "LEAD CAN ALSO ENTER CINNAMON FROM PROCESSING EQUIPMENT, STORAGE CONTAINERS OR PACKAGING."

MOST PEOPLE CERTAINLY ARE NOT GETTING ALL OF THE ESSENTIAL MINERALS AND VITAMINS FROM THEIR FOOD WITH THE SH*TTY AMERICAN DIET. BESIDES ALL OF THE MEDICATIONS AND JUNK FOOD, PEOPLE ARE LOADING UP EVERYDAY WITH TOXIC CHEMICAL PRODUCTS TOO.

WHY DON'T WE EVER LOOK AROUND AND ASK WHY AMERICA IS THE SICKEST DEVELOPED COUNTRY IN THE WORLD? WHY DO WE THROW MEDICATIONS AT PEOPLE INSTEAD OF FIRST CHECKING THEM FOR VITAMIN AND MINERAL DEFICIENCIES, LOOKING AT THEIR LIFESTYLE, THEIR DIET... WHY DO WE ACT LIKE HEALTH COMES FROM THINGS THAT IT WILL NEVER COME FROM? 👀

IF YOU WANT TO BE HEALTHY, YOU'RE GOING TO JUST HAVE TO WAKE UP AND ADVOCATE FOR YOURSELF. NO ONE IS GOING TO DO IT FOR YOU. ESPECIALLY NOW IN TODAY'S WORLD. THESE ARE ALL ACTUAL, REAL HEALTH FACTS.
