🪱 Paraziták és gombák – a hívatlan vendégek a bélben 🐛
A bélflóra egyensúlyát súlyosan felboríthatják a paraziták (pl. Blastocystis hominis, Giardia) és más gombafertőzések (nem kandida). Ezek a kórokozók a bélben élősködnek, toxinokat bocsátanak ki, és krónikus, alacsony fokú bélgyulladást okoznak, ami IBS-hez, SIBO-hoz és krónikus fáradtsághoz vezethet.

How a #parasite gave up sex to find more hosts—and why its victory won't last https://phys.org/news/2026-01-parasite-gave-sex-hosts-victory.html

Host range expansion of asexual parasite can be explained by loss of adaptions in Muller’s Ratchet https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-025-65843-4

"an asexual lineage of #Giardia managed to infect a wider range of hosts than its sexual ancestor... at a cost. Because these #parasites don't exchange genetic material, harmful mutations build up over time, leading to eventual collapse"

🦠 Are tiny gut protists rewriting what we know about “good” and “bad” microbes?

Read an article, decades ago, in the newsletter of the South Bay Speleological Society (?), I think,...

Telling a story of a fellow who peeked into a roadside cave with a friend, almost stepped into a pool of very still water, and tapped the water with the end of their mini maglight flashlight to show their friend.

Then later held the damp light with their mouth.

And got infected with #giardia .

Most of the article was just about their long diagnosis and treatment ordeal.

3-25 days to get giardia. Death by dehydration or giardia? Pick giardia? Also, if you're hiking/backpacking out there, take a water filter and/or purification tablets. The purification tablets weigh nothing.

Had to wash them. They are so miserable

My #puppy is very #sick with #giardia. I am so glad I ignored my husband's downplaying of the symptoms and took him to the #vet today. He should be alright in about two weeks thanks to 3 medications.
