Apparently about 80% of the population has some form of intestinal parasite...why isn't it normalized to regularly take anti parasitic meds to clear out your system? Do I have to take the horse paste route?

Most of them are symbiotic and necessary for health. You won't believe me but that doesn't matter to me

80% of the population being mostly within developing countries. Being overly sanitary is a double-edged sword in the first world. When the end-game boss for you in life is a peanut, things are looking grim.

Why not bring up the allergy and inflammation angle? People shit themselves when they consider being infected by parasites already.

If it's symbiotic then by definition it's not a parasite

No, there are different types of symbiosis.
Mutualism, Commensalism, and Parasitism.

Wouldn’t surprise me if it’s closer to 100%, similar to how 100% of us have bacteria in our gut

Well infor one is one of 20%then. EVEN IF I would somehow get a parasite, it wouldnt live long becouse high level sanitation and fresh tap water.

Ok, can you draw the correlations between having a natural gut biome with mutualistic and commensalistic bacteria to having a relationship with a parasitic helminth?

My point was the distinction between parasite and bacteria might be closer than we realize. I’m not being specific to a type of parasitic worm

We have parasitic relationships with some bacteria already, if that's what you mean. >>13837158 already explained the routes of symbiosis. Technically viruses are obligate intracellular parasites, is that the angle you're going for?

My angle was more bacteria look like little worms and parasites are downstream of this. Lol
It’s not serious, just a rando thought

Because most of those bacteria are normal flora and you don't want that dead
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4373459/
>While long considered to have a commensal relationship with its host, in whichE. colisecures food and a nice warm home while contributing little in return, it is increasingly clear that the host-E. colirelationship is really a mutualism. Indeed,E. colibenefits its host in a number of ways. It produces vitamin K and vitamin B12, both of which are required by mammalian hosts (Bentley and Meganathan, 1982;Lawrence and Roth, 1996).E. colialso maintains a friendly environment for its anaerobic neighbors by consuming oxygen that enters the gut. Perhaps most importantly,E. colicompetitively excludes pathogens from its niche in the gut, rather like how friendly barbarian tribes, settled by the Roman Empire on its frontiers, helped to keep out the more dangerous tribes (Chang et al., 2004).

Good sanitation is how you reduce the risk of contracting the parasite in the first place. It's not a cure. Clean water doesn't kill amoebas, anon

Those parasites are beneficial, without them your immune system goes haywire (as you can see in Western countries where seemingly everyone has some autoimmune disease or allergy)
