How long can intestinal worms be?
( 9 Sep 2007)

Intestinal worms are parasite that thrives on living organisms (human body) for their protection, nourishment and survival. It can be caused due to various reasons like poor digestion and elimination, consuming uncooked meat, diet low in fiber or bacterial imbalance in the body. These worms live in the intestine and cause many chronic health related problems.


It is important to get rid of them as soon as you get to know about them as they can be very long lasting and can cause malnutrition, weight loss, or poor absorption of nutrients in the body. Avoid oily foods, cream, butter, refined foods (White flour based products) meat, ham and pork. Instead increase the consumption of fresh fruits and vegetables and whole wheat products. Wash all the foods thoroughly before consuming, especially fish and chicken and cook them well before eating.
