⚠ CRITICAL SAFETY INFORMATION
DO NOT attempt helminthic therapy without first reading these essential pages:
- Helminthic_therapy_safety - Safety guidelines and contraindications
- Choosing_a_helminth - Species selection guidance
- Getting_started_guide - Dosing and preparation protocols
People who skip this preparation often experience poor outcomes or regret their decisions.
Is Helminthic Therapy Right for You?[edit | edit source]
What it is: Helminthic therapy safely restores beneficial intestinal worms that modern sanitation removed from human biology. These therapeutic organisms help thousands of people worldwide treat autoimmune diseases, allergies, and neuropsychiatric conditions.
Safety profile: This therapy has an excellent safety record spanning over 20 years of use. It is far safer than most pharmaceutical treatments for the same conditions. Side effects are typically limited to the first three months and are dose-dependent.
Effectiveness: Research and community data show 75-80% of people with autoimmune or psychological conditions experience meaningful improvement. The therapy helps with over 170 documented conditions including Crohn's disease, multiple sclerosis, depression, severe allergies, and autism spectrum disorders.
Community evidence: Thousands of people worldwide use this therapy successfully. Over 1,000 detailed personal stories document outcomes across diverse conditions. See Helminthic_therapy_personal_stories for experiences with your specific condition.
Not disgusting: Many people initially feel uncomfortable about hosting worms. This is normal and manageable. See Overcoming_worm_phobia for perspective and support.
Available Treatment Options[edit | edit source]
Four safe, domesticated helminth species are available commercially:
Each species has different characteristics, effects, and dosing schedules. Most people start with one species based on their condition and sensitivity level.
- Pig whipworm (TSO) - Gentlest option, taken every 2-3 weeks
- Human hookworm (NA) - Most powerful effects, less frequent dosing
- Human whipworm (TTO) - Strong effects, taken every 2-3 weeks
- Rat tapeworm (HDC) - Excellent for autism and ADHD, taken every 2-3 weeks
For detailed comparison and selection guidance, see Choosing_a_helminth.
What to Expect[edit | edit source]
Timeline reality: This therapy requires patience. Most people see meaningful improvement between 3-5 months. Some need 6-12 months, others 18-24 months. About 25% do not respond.
Individual dosing required: What works varies dramatically between people. Starting with very small doses and adjusting based on response prevents problems and optimizes outcomes.
Ongoing commitment: This therapy requires continued dosing and attention. Most people continue indefinitely to maintain improvements. It's not a one-time cure.
Realistic outcomes: While many people achieve dramatic improvements, some need to combine helminthic therapy with other treatments. Success often means significant symptom reduction rather than complete elimination.
Safety Considerations[edit | edit source]
Excellent overall safety: Two decades of use by thousands shows remarkable safety. Compatible with most medications including immunosuppressants.
Important exceptions: Do not use if you have severe immunosuppression (HIV/AIDS), pregnancy, severe intestinal strictures, or acute anemia.
Essential preparation: Read Helminthic_therapy_safety completely before proceeding. This covers all contraindications, drug interactions, and special considerations.

Practical Considerations[edit | edit source]
Medical support: Optional but helpful. Most doctors are unfamiliar with this therapy but can provide supportive care. See Working_with_doctors for guidance on discussing therapy with physicians.
Cost perspective: While initially expensive, helminthic therapy typically costs less than pharmaceutical treatments for the same conditions. Many users reduce medical expenses and improve earning capacity. See Treatment_costs for detailed analysis.
Home cultivation: Three species can be cultivated at home after purchasing starter doses, reducing long-term costs. See Helminth_incubation for instructions.
