When I was in veterinary school, one of our parasitology professors told us with great authority that tapeworms do not cause weight loss. How did she know? She swallowed two for research purposes (which didn't involve seeing if the parasite was a Friend for a Fair Form, but she kept track anyway out of curiosity). Hosted the worms for months, didn't lose an ounce. Now that's dedication to one's career.
She never mentioned if they were sanitized first. lol
