Has anyone tried Pig Whipworm?

I tried it a couple years ago, and I'm not entirely sure how well it worked for me, but was curious about other people's experience.

Hi there!

Pig whipworm has been shown to be helpful in combating the clinical symptoms of crohn’s, particularly in those that fail to respond to conventional treatment; though the management modality is still under research. The precise mechanism of action is not known though it is believed to act through modulating the body’s immune responses. In future we may actually see it as one of the mainstream management modality.
Hope this information is helpful.

Take care!
