THERE’S no worming around it. Gastrointestinal parasites are bad for your health and could cause permanent intestinal damage and life-threatening central nervous system issues. Fortunately, most infections respond well to medication. According to experts, here are some signs you may be harboring unwelcome organisms in your gut. UNEXPLAINED HUNGER Some parasites can consume their host’s nutrients, while others produce chemicals that interfere with the human body’s hormonal signals related to appetite. That can leave you feeling ravenous even after a full meal. ANEMIA Hookworms feed by attaching themselves to the lining of the small intestine, leading to significant blood loss. Additional freeloaders consume iron, which is needed to produce red blood cells. Still others — such as malariacausing Plasmodium — directly destroy a host’s red blood cells. MUSCLE & JOINT…
