      Apparently a hookworm infection can alleviate the symptoms of allergies.

        I've heard that too. No idea if it's a real 'cure' or something a beardy hippy came up with

            Didn't that doctor chap with the documentaries on the BBC try it out?

            I certainly seem to remember some programme or other that mentioned it.

                Yes, possibly him.

                Does lots of daft things, so hookworm infection might well be on the agenda.

                The one I quoted was on "Embarrassing Bodies".
