I am having a hard time figuring out what exactly you would like to know. Are you trying to find out if earthworms contain any chemicals that are beneficial to humans?

Please provide some more information about your question; we will then be able to help you better.

Earthworms contain millions, if not billions of chemical compounds. It would be impossible for me to list all of the compounds found in an earthworm. As for chemical compounds found in earthworms that are helpful to humans, what exactly do you mean by "helpful"? (e.g. medicinal, surfuctants, etc.)

Vinz, I would recommend that you try a web search for "earthworm medicine." We can provide information about how to do a web search if needed.

In general, this forum is for helping to design and complete science fair projects. Sometimes we do answer questions like yours, but it is usually in the course of helping someone who has already planned a project, tried web searches, and is still having a hard time finding some necessary information.

Are you working on a science fair project? If so, we would all be glad to hear more about it so that we can help you more.

Regards,
Chris

Vincent,

Please try this:

Go to this website:
http://www.google.com

Type in "earthworm medicine."

Click on the button marked "search."

That will give you a list of many websites that have information about medicinal properties of earthworm substances. If you have questions about any of the specific information in those pages, ask here and we will do our best to help.

Good luck,
Chris
