      Ironically enough, there is/was a dude who sells his hookworm laden feces cause they absolutely chill out your immune system. So for some the worms are a welcome reprieve from server allergies sufferers.

      They also have side effect of slowing you down as well so the old stereotype of people in the South being slow kinda holds water because the poorer would all defecate around generally the same convenient tree while also rarely wearing shoes. Shit was a wild read I went down a few months ago.
