After 23 days I have discovered that unfortunately the phenomenon I've observed has not been universal, several cases consisted of lethal examples where the prey... Did not survive, at least not in their regular state.
To elaborate some lost their physical body but survived by being subsumed into the body, similar to the relationship between angler fish. These individuals however did not share the body anymore than they did before now a prisoner in the flesh of the consumer.
Whether or not this is a fate worse or better than the others who only received death remains unknown.

Despite the case of some being released I do not recommend any form of close proximity with potentially such beings, avoid entering habitat if at all possible.

In the case of such.
Recommended prevention is either coating one's self or apparel with toxin such as Cerberin my recommendation as it causes violent vomiting before stopping the heart via hyperkalemia, although lethality is not always required.
Killing them buys time
it is found in the fruit seeds of the suicide tree, which is not always an option, any potent emetic poison may also be applicable depending on ones own unique circumstance, this may give a chance at survival but remember concentration loss over time and dose scaling for the potential encounter.

biological reformation in the case of release or death of the consumed is relavent to the associated being that permitted the encounter, get multiple confirmations do not blindly trust


Avoid potential situations unless form bodily safety is guaranteed by one such associated M level
