🪱 “Parasites aren’t really a thing in the U.S.”

Oh, really? 👀


Next time someone tells you parasites only happen “somewhere else,” you can politely send them to the CDC. 😉


Parasites absolutely occur in the United States, and there are multiple ways people can be exposed depending on the parasite including through food, water, soil, animals, and undercooked meat or fish.


And we're not talking about just one type. There are flukes, tapeworms, roundworms, protozoa and more, each with their own life cycles, transmission routes and characteristics.

🪱 And that life cycle matters.


Understanding how parasites develop from eggs and larvae to adults can give you a much better understanding of why parasite cleansing isn't necessarily as simple as “take something and you're done.”


I compiled various life cycles directly from CDC date so you can see exactly what we're talking about. 👇


They’re here. 🪱🇺🇸
