Hemp is an ancient folk remedy for elimination from the body of parasitic worms (part 2)
There is surprisingly little recent research related to the study of properties of cannabis to combat intestinal parasites, although that research of this kind are extremely promising recognize the most modern medical schools around the world. Rafael Meshaluam in 1987 for the first time in modern medicine described hemp as an effective anthelmintic, but formal studies since then is never carried out in the world.
Cannabis effective in controlling intestinal parasites
In fact, there are surprisingly few modern research related to the study of the properties of cannabis to combat intestinal parasites, although that research of this kind are extremely promising recognize the most modern medical schools around the world. Cannabis effective in controlling intestinal parasites modern researchers first noted the famous scientist, who studied cannabinoids Rafael Meshaluamom that describe the properties of this kind in its work in 1987. He was the first in modern medicine described hemp as an effective anthelmintic, but formal studies since then is never carried out in the world.
In the world there is a unique study on the use of cannabis for the treatment of farm animals in Uganda. It shows that cannabis is effective against parasitic pigs ascarids (Ascari suum), which infect pigs and humans. Furthermore, this study suggests that cannabis is effective for the treatment of other species of nematodes.
Using hemp against nematodes
Described more than 24 thousand species of parasitic and free-living nematode, ranging in size from microscopic to the more than one meter in length. There is evidence that cannabis is effective in the fight against filarial worms. One of the manifestations of cannabis's ability to deal with the abovementioned nematodes is that cannabis kills mosquito Culex quinquefasciatus larvae, which are the main vectors of filarial worms in the human body.
Filarial worms causing filariasis, which in the world suffer from more than 125 million people around the world. They can cause genital disease, lymph tissue tumor, as well as a persistent increase in the size of any part of the body due to the painful growths of the skin and subcutaneous tissue.
Investigator hemp M.Makpartlandom Dr. John (Dr. John M. McPartland) in one of his books published in 1997 noted that the hemp drugs are effectively used to combat nematodes of various plants, in particular, is almost universally found in potatoes and soybeans. In his work indicates that cannabis extract and its substantial amount effective against nematodes, including root nematodes (Meloidogyne incognita), infecting many different plant species. Based on the fact that all of humanity is using plants as food, vegetable nematodes enter the body and is quite comfortable in it feel. That is why, according to researchers who specialize in the study of the properties of hemp, cannabis should be used for the treatment of the human body from parasites and free-living nematodes.
Hemp against trematodes (flukes)
As in the case of nematodes, hemp demonstrates activity against trematodes. Digenea (also known as trematodes) - flat and oval worms with suction cups they use to gain a foothold and to eat the living tissue (similar to leeches). Although the majority of flukes parasites in fish and invertebrates, some species are known as parasites living in the human body.
One of these representatives is trematode Fasciolopsis buski, who lives in the gastrointestinal tract of the human body and reaches a length of 7.5 cm. This parasite infected more than 10 million people, most of them living in the south and south-east Asia. According to the researchers, hemp extract effectively used to treat pigs fasciolopsiasis accordingly its use is effective in getting rid of the parasite to humans.
Another extremely dangerous parasite in the human body is a fluke Schistosoma, infecting the blood and causes schistosomiasis. In places where these parasites, and their eggs clogged lumen in vessels and ducts that leads to varicose veins, tumors and cysts. They can cause fibrosis of the liver, cancer of the bladder, prostate and liver. Yielding only on the spread of malaria scale, schistosomiasis is a huge burden on the global healthcare system, infecting hundreds of millions of people around the world. Despite the fact that there is no reliable data that hemp is able to deal with these types of trematodes, it found that in the course of the disease affects the endocannabinoid system of the human body. Studies demonstrate that anandamide levels in the endocannabinoid system is significantly increased in the liver of experimental mice suffering from schistosomiasis.
Hemp against protozoa amoeba
Protozoa amoeba contain few hazardous to the human body parasites, and studies show that cannabis can be effectively used to treat them. In early studies, published in 1979 demonstrated that THC is effective against the causative agent of the infamous "Naegleria fowleri" causes amebic meningoencephalitis.
Another study published in 2010 shows that the endocannabinoid anandamide inhibits system two types of pathogenic amoebae (Acanthamoeba and Hartmannella), causing terrible eye infection known as keratitis, which can lead to complete blindness.
One of the worst known to mankind pathogens causing malaria, hemp can be treated indirectly, oposredovatelno. Cannabis extract and plant kill mosquito larvae - the carrier, as well as in the case of a carrier filarial nematode worm. There is evidence that cannabidiol can protect the human brain from the damaging effects of cerebral malaria, the deadly complications of the disease.
