The second type of bacteria are ectoparasites. They live on the surface of bodies, that is, in our nature, in our bodies.

  4. irritable bowel syndrome.Because parasites feed on substances from our bodies, such as fats, the intestinal walls are very often irritated. This is followed by some reduction in symptoms and absorption of nutrients. So the substances are not absorbed but immediately enter the colon, leading to digestive problems.

Invasion of almost every parasite in the blood test increases the number of eosinophils.

Joint and muscle pain
