    Hey, it’s a perfectly reasonable solution for humans suffering from parasites. Just because some idiots take it for other things doesn’t reduce its usefulness as a drug for humans under specific conditions.

      My personal theory is that a not insignificant number of the people who took it and felt better outside of normal disease progression curves just had worms too.

        Makes sense to me. I mean the odds that people that stupid are also riddled with parasites from ingesting shit crawling with parasites are pretty high.

        I thought my depression was getting the better of me for lie 8 months and it ended up just being anemia from whip worms. Honestly I would straight up expect taking an antiparasitic would make a lot of people feel better without them and I assume salt of the earth types have them even more than I do.
