What can you tell me about humans having tapeworms?

Answer by  sc1234 (1319)

When a human has tape worm, it is normally from eating contaminated meat. The tapeworm will proceed to grow by stealing the host's nutrients. Sometimes humans won't even realize that they have a tapeworm for a very long time. I have heard that a natural remedy to tapeworm is eating nothing but pineapple for a day.

Human beings having tapeworms usually feel hungry all the time. Moreover, they have abdominal and stomach pain in the digestive system. These worms can also be seen in their stools.

Rarer now, it is seen in poverty stricken areas. Tapeworms eat the food the human eats, which causes the human to never have enough food, lose weight, and become sick.

It is not that uncommon, particularly in more primitive areas. Usually, people get them from eating tainted food or drinking contaminated water. You do need to see a doctor to get rid of them, and this is usually done through medication.

They have been eating poorly cooked food and especially pork. They are not careful about what they eat or they do not take drugs to keep away worm infections. Good hygiene keeps away tapeworms and other parasites.
