A member asked:
Would a tapeworm segment in your poo resemble a flat noodle or more like rice? is it firm or soft to poke?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Soft, flat noodle: Tape worm would resemble a soft flat noodle a whole lot more than rice. Wish you good health! - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Practice safe sex, if you have sex.
