Tapeworms For Weightloss
Is it true that at one time, dieters attempted to lose weight by ingesting tapeworms?
Not only is this a myth, but its only one myth of many regarding tape worms. Most of this is due to a lack of education about them. I found a great site debunking tape worm myths.

Its so funny reading some of the myths, I have never heard of many of them. But the idea of putting a piece of meat in your anus every day for a week to entice them out is hilarious!
Name: Tadpole
Comments: It is not a myth! This was a very common tactic for weight loss in the early 1900's.
