Giardia has become recognized as one of the most common causes of waterborne disease (both through drinking water and through recreational use of water) in humans in both developing and industrialized countries. Signs include weight loss, abdominal distension and tenderness, bad-smelling flatulence and burps, pale watery stools, frothy, foul-smelling stools. Symptoms range in severity from mild to extreme; however, a significant proportion of infected individuals are completely asymptomatic. Hence, definitive diagnosis may require repeated stool examinations, fecal immunoassays, or even sampling of the upper intestinal contents.
Treatment The most beneficial way to treat giardiasis naturally may be through a combination approach, utilizing both nutritional interventions and other natural agents. |
