Will a tapeworm make you lose weight?

There is no magic pill to weight loss, even if it comes in the form of a tapeworm. The tapeworm has dangerous complications as well as a lack of proof that it can effectively help you lose (and keep off) weight.

Can you feel full with a tapeworm?

If you have a tapeworm infection, you may not have any symptoms. But some people have nausea, stomach pain, weakness, or diarrhea. You might notice a change in appetite (eating more or less than usual). And since the tapeworm keeps your body from absorbing nutrients from food, you may lose weight.

How do people use tapeworms to lose weight?

Dieters would swallow beef tapeworm cysts, usually in the form of a pill. The theory was that the tapeworms would reach maturity in the intestines and absorb food. This could cause weight loss, along with diarrhoea and vomiting.

How long does it take to pass a tapeworm?

When an infection is passed from an animal to a human, it is called zoonosis. Anyone who has a tapeworm will need treatment to get rid of it. Treatment is 95 percent effective and can be completed in a few days.
