These are real accounts from people who chose to share them. Read them knowing that you are encountering the ones who improved — not a representative sample. And yet.
A small selection from a large collection — hundreds of accounts gathered over two decades, across conditions ranging from Crohn's disease to lupus to childhood food allergy to chronic fatigue. They are testimony: what people tried, what happened, and how they felt about it.
The full collection includes outcomes that were partial, outcomes that were negative, and accounts from people who stopped.
Twenty years of Crohn's, complicated by a flare of Sweet syndrome, left him hospitalised and briefly unable to move his limbs at all. He had been on infliximab infusions, methotrexate, azathioprine and prednisone for two decades.
“I had basically given up and wanted to die. Within months of beginning hookworm therapy, the lesions cleared. I went from being a very sick, drug-dependent person who couldn't walk — to someone who goes to the gym four times a week. And I am still here.”
Severe SLE since 2009 had put her in a wheelchair for any significant distance. Years of prednisone, Cellcept and immunosuppressants brought the flares under pharmaceutical control, but not her mobility.
“With squeamish trepidation, I started hosting hookworms in April 2015 and got a positive result within 3 months. I have since stopped the steroids and the Cellcept. I now run up to 9 miles a week. It is a marvellous thing to experience this transformation in my life.”
Thirteen years of progressive food intolerance had narrowed his diet, by 2021, to rice and water. He estimated he had four to six months to live.
“I looked emaciated and I knew I wouldn't see out the year. Four days after adding HDC to my NA, the constant pain in my stomach began to disappear. For the first time in many years, I felt hungry — for two foods. I could eat them both. I am alive.”
After years of flares and medications that had stopped working, surgery was being discussed as the next option. She added hookworm therapy alongside her remaining conventional treatment.
“I did not abandon my doctors — I added something. The change came gradually, and then one day I realised how long it had been since the last bad spell. I did not mark the moment when it changed. I only noticed the absence of what had defined my life for a decade.”
Eleanor was covered head to toe with eczema from the first weeks of life, and had developed anaphylactic reactions to eggs, nuts, peanuts and eight other foods. Her first dose of 3 NA came at 16 months.
“By ten months into treatment, her skin had consistently cleared. Two years after her first dose, we discovered she was no longer allergic to eggs — then we tested nuts, then peanuts. She could eat them all. She can eat so many foods now that she couldn't have before, and her skin is radiant.”
Rosacea since 2014 had resisted every treatment she'd tried. She began carefully with 5 NA in October 2021 and kept detailed notes for two years.
“Sometime in November I realised I consciously felt happy. First time in years. The skin improved markedly. Cleaning anything dusty used to make me sneezy — now it doesn't. Premenstrual mood swings gone. Less grumpy and angry. These are not the miracles I'd read about. But they are real, and they are mine.”
