To: a fool in paradise
I teach 7th grade life science, and we were discussing parasitic worms.

One of the kids told me about this woman who took some sort of medicine she found over the internet, that clearly said it had tape worms in it.

Ithink the show was 10000 Ways to Die, or something like that,

Well anyway it was to be taken in three doses. The first two had tapeworms in them to take in the digested food. This woman lost weight BIGTIME, and was afraid to continue with the medicine.

Unfortunately for her the third dose was to kill the tapeworms inside her.

I read the book, “Seabiscuit”, and the jockeys would take capsules with tapeworm (or tapeworm larvae) in them to help keep their weight down. Just eeeewwww.
