Pig parasite may help treat autoimmune disorders


BOSTON (Reuters) - If you had a chronic and potentially debilitating condition such as rheumatoid arthritis or Crohn's disease, and swallowing the eggs of a pig parasite could help, would you do it?
The team at Coronado Biosciences Inc is betting you would.
The Burlington, Massachusetts, company is developing what it hopes will be the first in a new class of treatments for autoimmune conditions.

  1. Hi Good. You will probably freak out when you know who I am, just like the idea of taking pig parasite freaks me out. No way, I think I'd rather have the autoimmune disease!
