hi sir/madam,
Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.

Remedies for Intestinal Worms:-

Garlic - One of the best home remedies to deal with intense itching around the rectum caused by intestinal worms is garlic. Simply make a paste with raw ground garlic and a pinch of Vaseline. Apply this around the anal region to kill the eggs and lessen the itchiness. Raw garlic has strong anti-fungal and antiseptic properties and eating three cloves of raw garlic a day is also said to help get rid of all types of intestinal worms. While this may help to some extent it should be treated with skepticism.

Coconut – The use of coconut to treat intestinal worms is a practice with ancient origins, but is again unproven. Consume a tablespoon of grated fresh coconut in the morning with breakfast. Follow this up with 30ml or 60ml of castor oil. After three hours, drink approximately 375ml of warm milk. You can repeat this process every day until the infestation disappears.

Papaya – Unripe papaya contains an enzyme called papain that helps destroy roundworms. Drink a tablespoon of unripe papaya juice mixed with an equal quantity of honey and hot water. Two hours later, drink 30 to 60ml of castor oil mixed with 250ml warm milk. Repeat this treatment for two days. For children, halve the above doses and for infants a tablespoon is enough. You could also eat papaya seeds daily to expel intestinal worms. Carpaine another enzyme found in papaya seeds, helps destroy intestinal worms. Grind the seeds and mix one teaspoon of the powder with one cup of milk or water. Have this mixture first thing in the morning on an empty stomach to destroy the worms.

Pomegranate – The bark of the pomegranate tree contains punicine, which is highly toxic to intestinal worms. A decoction of fresh bark and water should be given thrice a day to adults and children suffering from worms.
Pumpkin Seeds – An infusion of ground pumpkin seeds and water can help to expel tapeworms.

Wormwood – Wormwood is a powerful herb that has been used since ancient times to treat intestinal worms. Drink a concoction of wormwood oil and olive oil to get rid of worms or you could use wormwood oil and water as an enema and get rid of worms in the rectum.

Diet for Intestinal Worms:-

Add anti-parasitic foods to your daily diet. These include blackberries, papaya, pineapple, pomegranate, onions, garlic, and raw cabbage.

Ground almond and pumpkin seeds are also thought to have anti-parasitic effects. They help cleanse the digestive system and prevent intestinal worms from breeding.

Avoid coffee, alcohol, refined sugar and processed foods to help cleanse your digestive system.

Foods such as carrots, sweet potatoes and squash are high in beta carotene and can help improve a weak immune system.

A diet high in fiber-rich foods such as pumpkin seeds, beetroot, flaxseeds may help eliminate intestinal parasites. These also help detox your digestive system and prevent constipation.

If you are diagnosed with intestinal worms, it may be beneficial to begin an all-fruit diet for five to seven days to cleanse the system. Check with your doctor before beginning any new routine or treatment though.

Stay away from fatty foods such as butter, cream, and oil until all the worms are removed.

Meats such as beef, pork, and chicken should be avoided until the treatment for intestinal worms is complete.

hope this was helpful.
have a healthy day.
