The Hidden Battle: How Parasites and Lyme Disease Affect Liver and Spleen Function.
Topics covered include:
- chronic fatigue
- parasites
- lymes Disease
- gut function
- Liver Function
- Lymph
- Detox pathways
Every organ plays a pivotal role in maintaining health and balance.
The liver and spleen are crucial for filtering toxins, fighting infections, and managing blood cells.
However, when invaders such as parasites and the bacteria responsible for Lyme disease enter the scene, they can disrupt the harmony, leading to significant health challenges.
The Liver: A Detox Powerhouse
The liver, known for its remarkable ability to detoxify and regulate blood, faces a formidable challenge when confronted with parasites and Lyme disease. These invaders can cause inflammation, reduce liver function, and lead to conditions such as hepatitis or cirrhosis.
Parasites, in particular, can block bile ducts, impeding the liver’s ability to process and eliminate toxins. Lyme disease, caused by the Borrelia burgdorferi bacterium, can also trigger liver inflammation, further straining its detoxifying capabilities.
The spleen—an organ vital for immune response and blood filtration
Parasites may cause splenomegaly, an enlargement of the spleen, which compromises its ability to filter blood effectively. Lyme disease, with its knack for evading the immune system, can weaken the spleen’s response to infections, leaving the body more vulnerable to other pathogens and diseases.
When both the liver and spleen are compromised, the effects can be profound. The body’s ability to detoxify blood, fight infections, and manage blood cells is diminished, leading to a cascade of health issues. Symptoms may include fatigue, jaundice, increased susceptibility to infections, and in severe cases, organ failure.
Strategies for Supporting Severe Fatigue and Parasites
Dietary changes, such as reducing inflammatory foods and increasing intake of nutrients that support detoxification and immune function, can be beneficial. Herbal remedies and supplements, under the guidance of a healthcare professional, may also offer support for liver and spleen health. Using herbs such as ginger, oregano, cinnamon and pumpkin seeds can be helpful in the treatment against parasites.
