    The Vikings weren't unique in hosting helminths. Everyone in the world had at least one type of helminth at some point during their lives up until their population became industrialised. Every archaeological dig finds helminth-rich coprolites - if they bother to look for them, of course. Ötzi, "the Iceman" had human whipworms (Trichuris trichiura) in his ...

Anyone looking for "helminthic therapy" delivered as a synthetic...

    The hookworm species used in helminthic therapy - Necator americanus - do not cause "major blood loss". If you're interested, you can read the details about the minuscule amount of blood that the NA take as food, here: Do hookworms cause excessive blood loss and anaemia/anemia? https://helminthictherapywiki.org/wiki/index.php/Helminthic_therapy_safety...
