10 Home Remedies For Pinworms
Home Remedy #7: Grapefruit Seed Extract
Another great remedy for pinworms is grapefruit seed extract. For centuries, grapefruit seeds have been used to treat parasites like pinworms and others. That they are still in use is testament that they work. Grapefruit extract has antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal properties. These properties come in handy in keeping the digestive system clean and functional.
People living in areas where pinworms are common usually eat grapefruit to protect themselves against them. Those traveling to these areas may also buy grapefruit seed extract for preventive use. It is also possible that people who live in grapefruit-growing areas and who eat lots of it may have lower pinworm infestations. The recommended dose of grapefruit extract is 3 to 4 drops three times per day.
