I want to know how broke these people were to be a Guinea pig for someone infecting you with worms

Did they drag their arse on the ground like a dog too?

I believe the majority would just stay fat

I’m starting to think many of the high school and college girls LIKE being fat. They think it’s cool.

Do you poop out some of the worms as you go? Would be disgusting feeling that come through

I approve of scientific studies being directly shared on this board instead of a MSM write up of it

Imagine taking personal responsibility for what you put in your body.

Some people have thyroid issues. My wife works with a really really big woman, and she claims that she is a really healthy eater and eats small portions and that there's almost no way she eats enough to stay that big. I doubt she exercises much, but my wife did do a charity walk/run with her and said she didn't have any problem finishing it. It's not always about personal responsibility. She actually just did a gastric bypass done, so we'll see if the weight falls off.

Signs and symptoms of hookworm infection vary by host and hookworm species. In humans, the first sign of infection is itching and skin rash. Humans with light infections may show no symptoms, but humans with heavy infections may have abdominal pain, diarrhea, loss of appetite, weight loss
