10 Home Remedies For Pinworms
Home Remedy #3: Papaya Seeds
This is yet another effective home remedy for pinworms. Papaya is a fruit that grows only in tropical areas where it has been used as a traditional remedy over the years. However, papaya is no longer limited to people in tropical areas. The fruit is now available for most of the year, making the use of papaya seeds a practical alternative across the world. Papaya and its seeds are used for many health conditions such as lowering the risk of heart problems, diabetes mellitus, cancers, and gastrointestinal tract problems, and improving blood pressure and blood glucose levels.
A 2012 study showed that papaya seeds are effective against worm infections in rats. They can eliminate parasites from the body especially H. diminuta. To use them for pinworms, just chew on a teaspoon of them on their own or with some honey.
