In Episode 8 of Two Doctors Tell the Truth, Dr. Richman and Dr. Fiorillo tackle the exploding online trend of parasite cleanses. From viral TikTok “rope worm” claims to misinformation about sushi and seed remedies, the doctors break down what’s real, what’s nonsense, and what you actually need to know.
Learn how common parasites really are in the U.S., which symptoms to take seriously, and why self-diagnosing on social media may do more harm than good. They also expose the truth behind so-called “worms” caused by cleanses, share bizarre stories from practice, and explain when to see a doctor (hint: not when a TikTok tells you to).
This is your myth-busting, evidence-based guide to gut health in the age of digital fearmongering.
