Do tapeworms cause weight loss?

Tapeworms have been and is being utilized by some (brave or foolish, you decide) people. As of thir parasitic nature, they get nutrition from you and you would possibly be able to slim down by supporting a lot of these. Tapeworms may in animals cause drastic weight loss and in the end, the host dies. We humans are part of the animal kingdom, so I have no reason to believe they would increase your weight as in actual body mass. It is not something one should consider a miracle diet though. Unwanted complications may arise, although these may be rare.
