Hookworm Life Cycle 

Causal Agents:
The human hookworms include two nematode (roundworm) species, Ancylostoma duodenale and Necator americanus.  (Adult females: 10 to 13 mm (A. duodenale), 9 to 11 mm (N. americanus); adult males: 8 to 11 mm (A. duodenale), 7 to 9 mm (N. americanus).  A smaller group of hookworms infecting animals can invade and parasitize humans (A. ceylanicum) or can penetrate the human skin (causing cutaneous larva migrans), but do not develop any further (A. braziliense, A. caninum, Uncinaria stenocephala).  Occasionally A. caninum larva may migrate to the human intestine causing eosinophilic enteritis; this may happen when larva is ingested rather than through skin invasion.

Eggs are passed in the stool 1, and under favorable conditions (moisture, warmth, shade), larvae hatch in 1 to 2 days.  The released rhabditiform larvae grow in the feces and/or the soil 2, and after 5 to 10 days (and two molts) they become become filariform (third-stage) larvae that are infective 3.  These infective larvae can survive 3 to 4 weeks in favorable environmental conditions.  On contact with the human host, the larvae penetrate the skin and are carried through the veins to the heart and then to the lungs.  They penetrate into the pulmonary alveoli, ascend the bronchial tree to the pharynx, and are swallowed 4.  The larvae reach the small intestine, where they reside and mature into adults.  Adult worms live in the lumen of the small intestine, where they attach to the intestinal wall with resultant blood loss by the host 5.  Most adult worms are eliminated in 1 to 2 years, but longevity records can reach several years.

Some A. duodenale larvae, following penetration of the host skin, can become dormant (in the intestine or muscle).  In addition, infection by A. duodenale may probably also occur by the oral and transmammary route.  N. americanus, however, requires a transpulmonary migration phase.

Information regarding; allergies, medication, lactating and pregnant women.

Allergies are frequently related to toxicity in the body.  If someone has serious constipation or infection with parasites, allergies will frequently begin to develop in the body.  Anyone with an allergic tendency should read the ingredients on the label of Harmony, Experience and Clear and acknowledge any known allergies to any of the ingredients.  If you are not sure, you may want to consult your allergist or physician.  Many people who initially have a negative reaction to an ingredient in Harmony, find that after a number of months on Experience digestive cleanse, they can take Harmony with no reaction at all.  Cleansing the body of parasites and auto-detoxification frequently decreases or eliminates allergic tendencies.  NOTE:  Check with your doctor or health practitioner for approval before you use ANY product to which you may be allergic to.
