Natural Remedies for Leishmaniasis

Modified on Sep 26, 2023

Leishmaniasis is a disease caused by parasites. It is transmitted by sand flies. The disease is most commonly contracted in the tropics, subtropics, and southern Europe. The disease can affect the skin, causing sores, and can affect internal organs, including the spleen, liver, and bone marrow. Natural remedies for leishmaniasis include colloidal silver, garlic, black walnut, and turpentine. 

Garlic

Garlic is an inexpensive and potent anti-parasitic herb. Garlic can be used internally and externally. To use garlic on an external parasitic infection, mince several cloves of garlic and heat gently in some extra virgin coconut oil. (8 cloves of garlic to 1/4 cup of coconut oil.) Keep the heat low enough that you do not brown the garlic. After 30 minutes, strain out the garlic and use the oil topically twice a day. Alternatively, take a garlic bath. Chop the cloves from a garlic bulb and let them sit for 15 minutes. Then add them to a warm bath and soak for at least 20 minutes. Garlic baths can be taken once or twice a day.

To take garlic internally, mince one clove of garlic and mix it with coconut oil, honey, or yogurt. Garlic can easily be added to a salad as well. Take at least one clove of garlic internally three times a day.
