Earthworms? No. Beneficial -- they aerate the soil. Don't know about eating them.

Internal parasites like the tapeworm? Yes! They, at a minimum, sap your food energy.

Wolf worms can be spread by animals to people. They can be deadly in animals and humans. However, it is not that easy to become infected with them.

No. It is natural since at least 10% if Americans get them! I have had them and I know that it only irritates your anus and that it can cause bowel cramps.
