My college friend and his wife had that on their fridge - I thought it was the funniest thing. My friend is an entomologist, I'm sending him the tapeworm one.

Lysol
You can get Lysol in the brown bottle at most Walgreen's...if you want. It doesn't list the ingredients (is that legal?), but it smells like carbolic acid, which was a popular cleaner in the 19th century. It was also popular for committing suicide (by drinking).
"Classic" Lifebuoy had the same awful smell.

hmmm..Lysol's still everywhere here, usually right beside the Spic 'n Span. The brown bottle is long gone, replaced by the plastic jug and now available in lemon scent, pine and good old original. Checked the bottle under the sink, just to be absolutely sure - no mention of using it on anything but floors and walls these days...... Many sighs of relief from atriums everywhere I'm sure.
The idea that folks swallowed tapeworm eggs is beyond me-have seen this ad in a biology book.The tapeworm stays in you and you discharge its egg segments-GROSS!They can get up to 60Ft long-enough length to circle your small intestines THRICE!Pigs,cattle are common sources.And sometimes sushi can be contaiminated with fish tapeworm eggs-they can hatch and live in YOU!Good reason to COOK all meats!!!Cooking destroys the eggs.To get rid of them is a nasty process-you are given a toxin that destroys the worm(hopefully) without getting you TOO sick!Getting them out otherwise would invovle very serious intenstinal surgery.

According to the U.S. Army survial manual, eating hot peppers as a part of your regular diet renders you immune to intestinal parasites. This information came as quite the pleasant surprise to me as I've consumed hot pepper based foods in quantity since I was a small child. You can also eat cigarettes to kill intestinal parasites, no more than one-and-a-half cigarettes a day for four days. Strange world, isn't it? This brought to mind a humorous scene being played out:
"Cigarette?"
"Why yes, thank you." *Munch munch munch*

I don't know if eating peppers and cigarettes will keep you immune to parasites like tapeworms-the best prevention is to try to aviod ingesting them in the first place.Tapeworms are an interesting parasite.they feed on your
"chyme"-partially digested food coming from your stomach to your small intestine-that is where tapeworms live.They don't have digestive tracts of their own and no mouth with teeth as we have.Their "mouth" is merely an opening with hooks around it to hold fast to the intestines of the host the tapeworm is in.The tapeworm is then "sharing" your food in its own way.You chew and partially digest the food for it!That is a good reseon why people should properly COOK their food-esp if you eat meats.No raw meats!!the tapeworms bulk is primarily egg segements-to reproduce and make new tapeworms!Tapeworms also live in the acid enviornment of your digestive system-they are pretty tough.They live under conditions that are truely hostile.and they have no eyes,or ears-they don't need them.Severe tapeworm infections will cause intestinal blockage of the host-which could be fatal to the host.

Douching
I have been a sexual health nurse for over 13 years and I still hear women using Lysol, Bleach, Alum/Water. I think they got the word from their mothers and grandmother. Most of these women think it control odor and perhaps pregancy. Every man/woman should know that everyone does have genital odor and no amount of douching is going to work. In fact, genital odors works as a phemomenon. There is no medical reason for douching.....There I have said it. Yes, you can still buy the Little Brown Bottle of Lysol in my area.

My grandmother informs me that she was told to START smoking by a doctor in order to boost her circulation. Need I say more?
Grandpa used to apply rubbing alcohol to a rag and place it on his forehead for just about everything. In my case it was absorbed through the skin and I began to taste it immediately. No thanks; forced the parents to cut that out while I was very young.
My mother remembers blood-letting as a girl. {VENDOUZES in Greek} YIKES! Same procedure as in link, but a small gash is made into the skin to suck out the "Bad" blood.

~According to the U.S. Army survial manual, eating hot peppers as a part of your regular diet renders you immune to intestinal parasites.
Many cultures that are from/in hot climates eat hot/spicy foods. It has been shown that there are anti-biotic/anti-septic properties to this custom which is climactically appropriate.
