(Health-NewsWire.Net, July 09, 2015 ) Beaverton, Oregon -- In a recent article posted on the National Public Radio website, the marijuana use of the men of the Aka tribe in the Congo was the topic of discussion. According to the author of the article, the men in this tribe smoke more marijuana than any other group in the world, with 70% of its men using marijuana on a daily basis.
When interviewing the male members of the tribe, the author discovered that they view the use of marijuana as a performance enhancer. This tribe, as it was pointed out in the article, is made up of hunter gatherers and most males in the tribe feel that marijuana enhances their strength and helps them stay warm on long hunts.
One unintended benefit is also apparent. During the study of this group, researchers learned that the men who regularly smoked marijuana had fewer parasitic eggs in their stool. According to the article more research will have to be done, but there seems to be a clear link to the amount of marijuana in the system and the number of parasites, and it could be that the drug is an effective way to rid the body of parasites.
The author goes out of the way to refrain from advocating marijuana use as a remedy for parasites and in fact calls for more study. Others point out that there are effective products on the market that are all natural, do not involve drug use and are just as effective when battling parasites and worms. One company mentioned is Nutracraft, which markets parasite cleanse supplements that kill and remove parasites naturally. For those not interested in turning to marijuana, for whatever reason, these supplements are an easy and effective alternative.
Regardless of the methods, parasites are a significant problem for many people and the tribal men of the Congo may have stumbled upon a solution.
