Re: Parasite theory stirs a revolution! Why we need worms...

I agree with your points. There are other factors like the ones you brought up that it seems he’s not taking into consideration. I think worms are nasty & I know since I became infected I have been feeling like hell, tired, foggy brain, etc. Not knowing what was going on and blaming it all on everything else, but worms being the root cause.

However I do recall seeing some educational program or something about 10 years ago where some researchers or doctors stated that everyone has thousands of worms they don't know about and they felt the worms gave them balance and were harmless. Something like that. But I can't agree with all that. Otherwise why are dogs being dewormed? Haven't heard much about it since, only the reverse claim that humans DON'T have parasites unless in an underdeveloped county.

Maybe they are just promoting whatever belief benefits them in the long run. Maybe deworming dogs is profitable but deworming humans isn’t, so they feel it’s best to pacify us with these theories that human worm infections either rarely exist or are beneficial to us until its too late and all the damage has been done then blame it on something else.
