Beaver Fever (Giardia)

Stagnant pond water may seem like a tempting, quick, water source, but boil the water first or find a flowing stream in stead. Within hours you may begin getting dihoria as the Protozoa begin colonizing your small intestine. They irritate the lining here and within days you will start to feel tiered, have a lot of gas, headaches, dihoriha will continue and you will have poor digestion and have difficulty with assimilation.

Symptoms may resolve sooner than later depending on what you do when you get the flue. “They” say that the symptoms will disappear on their own in two to four weeks, but I expedited the process with a healthy diet and some herbs you may have available too. 

Eat raw horseradish root. This coupled with the birch bark really turned the tiered body symptoms around. It wasn’t until I ate the mugwort however that the dioriah cleared up. The symptoms near cleared about a week and a half after first  ingestion and within five days of initial treatment efforts with the herbs.

Boil water if your are looking at a small pond with tadpoles, snails, and other pond critters. You wouldn’t want beaver flue.

As always too, nose breath day and night.
