There are a few tapeworm legends floating around in addition to the weight-loss one, so let’s clear some of those up first. One is that you can get rid of a tapeworm by coaxing it out with a bowl of milk and cookies placed near your mouth. Not true. A tapeworm is not Santa Claus, and not only does it live in your intestine — with a stomach and esophagus between it and anything near your mouth — but it doesn’t even have any sensory organs that would allow it to detect the presence of food. Remember, this is a very simple creature. It can’t smell or see. This is the same reason that putting some enticing food near the other end of your digestive tract won’t draw out a tapeworm either. If you have a tapeworm, simply take your pill and let nature take its course.
