News of the Weird...Yuck!

Jamie Stern - Wednesday, September 30, 2009

Today I read something that intrigues and disgusts me at the same time...no it's not another story about some reality show star...it's "Gut Worms"!

A study was conducted in Vietnam indicating that parasitic gut worms, such as hookworm, could help in the prevention and treatment of asthma and other allergies. Wow...and Gross!  I will just let you read this one on your own...
MedicalNewsToday.com - Gut Worms May Protect Against House-dust Mite Allergy

Try to have a wonderful day in spite of this story.
