Worm Therapy

If ever you suffer from inflammatory bowel disease, multiple sclerosis, asthma, ulcerative colitis, or Crohn's disease, please look into helminthic (worm) therapy. The logic is strong and the results are good; don't let the yuck factor ruin your chances of recovery.

There is an epidemic of immune-mediated disease in highly-developed industrialized countries. Such diseases, like inflammatory bowel disease, multiple sclerosis and asthma increase in prevalence as populations adopt modern hygienic practices. These practices prevent exposure to parasitic worms (helminths). Epidemiologic studies suggest that people who carry helminths have less immune-mediated disease. Clinical trials show that exposure to helminths reduce disease activity in patients with ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease. Patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD) improve when exposed to whipworm.
 
Loss of natural helminth exposure removes a previously universal Th2 and regulatory immune biasing imparted by these organisms. Helminths alter host mucosal and systemic immunity, inhibiting dysregulated inflammatory responses.
