Sure. There was a person who, after trying the tapeworm diet, had tapeworms migrate to other parts of the body. They ended up in the liver and caused serious liver damage. It was a life - threatening situation.
No. The tapeworm diet is not something to be promoted or have success stories about. It's a harmful and abnormal approach to weight loss. Tapeworms are not a natural or safe part of the body and can cause a great deal of harm.
Well, there are cases where those on the tapeworm diet had unexpected allergic reactions. The presence of the tapeworm in the body triggered an immune response. Some people developed rashes all over their bodies and had difficulty breathing. It was really terrifying as they had no idea this would happen when they started this so - called 'diet'. Moreover, getting rid of the tapeworms once they entered the body was not easy at all and often required medical intervention which was also a very unpleasant process.
In a wildlife veterinary case, a rescued bear cub had been caught in a trap. When the vet examined it, they found that the cub had a severely infected wound on its leg.

The danger of being attacked by the cub during the procedure and the cub's pitiful state made it a really shocking veterinarian horror story.
Another shocking aspect was the financial exploitation. NXIVM promised great things but instead drained people of their money.

One of the most shocking is when a tenant found out that the apartment they were leasing was actually being foreclosed on. They had paid months of rent in advance and then suddenly had to move out with no warning. Another shocker is when the landlord changed the locks on the tenant while they were out, claiming they hadn't paid rent when they actually had proof of payment.
The so - called 'tapeworm diet' is extremely dangerous and unethical, and there should not be considered 'success stories'. Tapeworms are parasites that can cause serious harm to the human body, including malnutrition, abdominal pain, and damage to internal organs.
