Has anyone tried worm therapy?

 

I have Crohn's and usually post on that forum.  There have been a few threads recently about the possibility of help for autoimmune diseases from worm therapy.  I have started looking into it (there are studies, clinical trials, and journal articles) an keep seeing allergies and asthma mentioned.  Evidently hookworms and TSO worms may be able to help.  I thought I ask you all if you have heard of it, has anyone tried it, and whether anyone has had success with it.

 

I'd appreciate any insight you may have!

 

Here are a few links to reseach studies and 2 companies who sell the 2 types of worms. I am not endorsing or recommending either of them but I added their links here because their websites give sources of other studies and clinical studies. The first website is funny!
