The Latest Word on Eggs and Your Health

Nutrition

Are eggs good or bad for your health? It actually depends on whom you ask. Which doesn’t help much when people are deciding whether to include them in their diets. This is especially true for those on the popular keto and similar diets. These emphasize large amounts of protein, including eggs.

So our primary care concierge doctors at MD 2.0 in Jupiter want to bring you up to date on all the latest research to help you decide for yourself if eggs are good or bad for your health.

Declare War on Mosquitoes This Summer

Environment

For the past year-and-a-half, we’ve been at war against an unseen but deadly coronavirus. But our family practice doctors in Jupiter, Florida, want to remind you of another war humanity has been fighting for millennia: the one against mosquitoes.

COVID-19’s Possible Impact on Men’s Fertility

Vaccinations

As our primary care doctors in Jupiter have told you before, the COVID-19 vaccines don’t impact fertility. Yet this unfortunate and untrue rumor persists.

Ironically, however, infection with COVID-19 may eventually prove to cause a loss of fertility in men, according to a recent study. It’s still too early to tell whether the condition lasts beyond a few weeks.

COVID-19 Drop Causing Another Illness in Children

Children, Concierge Medicine, Disease

Our primary care doctors in Delray Beach want to advise you of an unforeseen and unfortunate consequence of the drop in cases of COVID-19: an increase in another illness among children.

Those who are vaccinated—as well as those who aren’t—are mingling more in public without masks. Social distancing is now almost a thing of the past as many have come to believe the pandemic is over. (It isn’t, since just under half of Americans are fully vaccinated for the virus.) This change in behavior is leading to a rise in one particularly serious illness in children, RSV.

What Is An Anti-Inflammatory Diet?

Disease, Healthy Living, Nutrition

Our primary care concierge doctors in Jupiter have told you many times about the dangers inflammation poses to your health. Often, the best way to reverse these dangers is by participating in an anti-inflammatory diet.

Inflammation is necessary to keeping the body healthy. But when your body is repeatedly assaulted by various harmful stimuli such as pathogens, injuries, or poor lifestyle habits, the inflammation never ends and can eventually cause long-term damage.
