Experts say that if ascaris infection is serious, patients will lose weight in a short time, leading to malnutrition and sometimes abdominal distension. However, it is not worth the loss to lose weight by damaging the body.
The doctor reminds: Ascaris may die if it is parasitic in the body. "I recently found a company that bought egg capsules online, saying that eating their ascaris eggs helps to lose weight. I used to take diet pills. Recently, many diet pills have gone wrong. I don't know if this kind of egg has any effect on losing weight. " On June 5438+08, Miss Wang, who is keen on losing weight, called our hotline to ask whether it is reliable to lose weight through egg capsules. After investigation, the reporter found that most of the businesses selling egg capsules online are secretly selling without any quality guarantee, while doctors appealed to Sanya citizens not to lose weight in this dangerous way. "Ascaris will cause obstruction of the intestine, bile duct and pancreatic duct, and Ascaris will invade the lungs, which will cause serious complications and even death."
The public reported online sales of Ascaris eggs slimming capsules.
Miss Wang told reporters that she was fat. In order to lose weight, she tried almost every method. Miss Wang said that a few days ago, she browsed online and found that there were businesses selling "Ascaris eggs", claiming that the egg diet method could lose at least 6 pounds a month, and many stars were using it. The weight loss effect promoted by the merchants made Miss Wang feel excited. But because the method of losing weight is a bit scary, Miss Wang hopes to consult this newspaper to see if she can lose weight in this way.
"You published a report about Qumei before, and this time I want to ask you if eggs can be used to lose weight."
According to the reporter's investigation, 1 egg sells for 278 yuan.
According to the website provided by Miss Wang, the reporter found the "Liting slimming capsule wholesale and retail company" selling ascaris eggs capsules on a website. According to the contact seller left on the webpage, the reporter found a customer service staff named "Jiacheng Education". What puzzles the reporter is that the information of the customer service staff is not the introduction of ascaris eggs, but the words "Acting as a real diploma qualification certificate, paving the way for your employment and building a bridge for your success".
When the reporter asked whether to apply for a certificate or buy egg capsules, the other party told the reporter that they also sold egg capsules. After asking about the reporter's height and weight, the other party suggested that the reporter buy 4-5 egg capsules, one egg per capsule, priced at 278 yuan, send pesticides and pay directly through bank transfer.
When the reporter said that he wanted to see the pictures of the egg capsules, the other party said that the eggs were placed in nutrient solution and could not be photographed. From beginning to end, the reporter failed to see the true face of the egg capsule.
Doctor's reminder
Ascaris is harmful to human body.
So, is it reliable to lose weight with ascaris eggs? It is understood that as early as 2008, the Hong Kong Department of Health appealed to the public not to take ascaris eggs to lose weight. There have also been cases in the mainland where consumers fainted after taking ascaris eggs to lose weight.
According to the doctor, if the infected eggs are swallowed, the larvae will escape from the intestine, then pass through the intestinal wall, enter lymph glands and mesenteric veins, pass through the liver, right heart and lungs, then pass through capillaries to reach alveoli, then pass through trachea, mouth, esophagus and stomach, and return to the small intestine. The whole process takes about 25-29 days.
"Parasitic ascaris in the body will cause obstruction of the intestine, bile duct and pancreatic duct, and ascaris will invade the lungs, which will cause serious complications and lead to death. Losing weight like this is really not worth the candle. " In this regard, Dr. Yao from Sanya told reporters.
