The Tapeworm Diet

In this episode, we cover the scandalous history of one of the oldest and more questionable weight loss methods: the tapeworm diet. We discuss the Victorian beauty standards that pushed dieters to willingly contract a parasitic infection and the very serious side effects no one seemed to care about...until it was too late.You can find our sources listed on our website unsavorypod.com This is an independently produced podcast and your support means a lot to us!
