Very well-written article, explaining some of the natural worming treatments. I’m quite impressed with the amount of work the author put in, especially the research. Altogether a great job.

ANY information I could find was listed in the sources, pro or con, should you actually go through them, also the danger threshholds and side effects. I didn't set out to specifically debunk, just to provide actual evidence to either support or disprove commonly shared internet theory. My family was (and still is) very holistic/natural remedy when I was growing up, we had naturopathy doctors and they would always say that nothing they could prescribe is intrinsically harmless unless it was intrinsically useless. If anyhing, that's my bias- natural/holistic doesn’t mean safe.
I don't want people accidentally harming/killing their birds with something they read in an instagram post.
And as most if not all research proves they don't work well, if at all, they more or less de bunked themselves. I can't help that.
It's easy to find the research on all the possible side effects, even if its not studies on chickens, it's fact that too much of any substance listed can cause the listed issues.
So why use a substance that's proven to barely work and can likely to cause issues?
Since you mentioned it, you'd have to eat approximately 200-2000 seeds (depending on the variety of apple) to cause issues to yourself, at one time. Which is ridiculous to do since they're bitter and nasty and your body would likely reject it.(via losing your cookies). Thanks for your feedback!
