THE EFFECT OF GIARDIASIS ON INTESTINAL TUMOR DEVELOPMENT

Modern medicine has repeatedly shown that seemingly simple organisms can cause serious problems. Giardia are a clear example of this. These microscopic parasites live in the human small intestine and can remain unnoticed for a long time, hiding under the guise of other diseases. Children are particularly vulnerable: they are more frequently infected with giardia, and in them the infection often manifests with more pronounced reactions. However, this is not only due to age. Giardiasis is also not uncommon in adults, it just manifests itself differently. The problem is that Giardia is not distinguished by specific, clear symptoms. In many cases, the symptoms are confused with irritable bowel syndrome, dysbacteriosis or stress. Therefore, in addition to recognizing alarming signs, it is important to understand how the infection works, how to fight it, and how to prevent reinfection after treatment.
