Barbara asked about eating worms.

Some cultures consider them delicacies.  Usually cut in short
sections and fried.

French and (some) Americans eat snails.

Our most recent pre-primate ancestors were insectivores.  Many modern
primates still are insectivorous omnivores.  Many human cultures eat
insects.

Insects are fine nutrition: very high protein, much fat of good
quality, substantial fiber in the chitin.

Barbara mentioned urinary and digestive problems.  Antibiotics often
unbalance gut bacteria and allow Candida albicans to flourish leading
to various problems.  Acidophilus is beneficial here.  Complete
elimination of anything that nourishes C.a. is important meaning no
sugar, no grain, no yeast.

Some digestive problems yield well to kombucha.
