What happens to you if you have worms in your brain?

Worms can appear in the body in many ways. Also in the brain, Van Hellemond says. But RFK Jr.’s claim is not possible. that the brain worm ate part of his brain and then he died. “These worms don’t exist,” says Van Hellemond.

The brain worm is the “biggest” worm that can occur in the human body. This usually applies to the pig worm, which can grow up to 10 meters long. However, this mostly happens in people in the womb. How does such a worm end up in your brain? This has to do with the eggs that the worm lays.

The eggs can be eaten by humans, for example when they are found in contaminated food or drinking water. Such an egg then hatches into a larva, which then pushes through the stomach wall and moves through the body. “All the organelles can then have vesicles,” said Van Hellemond. “That vesicle grows slowly and uses the nutrients that are present in the brain.”
