What the changing fortunes of eggs tell us about nutrition, food trends and health

October 9, 2020
| No Comments
| Health Food

What is an egg? Five grams of fat, a bit of it saturated, and slightly more monounsaturated; the type of fat found in olive oil. A fair amount of cholesterol. A good source of vitamin D and vitamin B12. Around 25 per cent of the daily intake of selenium, used by the body to make antioxidant defences. On top of that there’s 25g of protein in a large egg, which is important for building muscle. 

Reading all this, you might imagine that eggs would be an unequivocal candidate for superfood status, alongside the likes of kale, avocado and acai berries. 

“There’s no such thing as a superfood, but if there were, eggs would be a good candidate,” says Ian Marber, nutritionist and health writer as we chat ahead of today’s World Egg Day celebrations. “They are an interesting food because they come in their own little packet. They’re versatile and

| Community Health

A health district in Virginia announced Tuesday that it will be changing its name at the beginning of the new year in order to reflect its commitment to inclusion.

Effective January 2021, the Thomas Jefferson Health District will become the Blue Ridge Health District.

The district says this will further its commitment to ensuring that its public health services are “inclusive and welcoming” to everyone in the community.

“Changing our name is symbolic of the deeper work we are doing as an organization to create an inclusive, equitable environment for our staff and clients and to acknowledge and address the impact of racism on health,” district director Dr. Denise Bonds said.

The name also aligns with other health districts in Virginia that are mostly named after regional geography, the health district said.

Poll: Health care is key voter concern amid the pandemic and changing Supreme Court

October 5, 2020

| Health Magazine

WASHINGTON (CNS) — This election year, in the midst of a global pandemic and with the Affordable Care Act about to be challenged for the third time before a Supreme Court that is in flux, it’s no surprise health care is a bigger issue than it has been in previous presidential elections.

The economy still gets top billing, followed by the coronavirus outbreak, which has killed more than 200,000 people in the United States and affects both health and economy.

Criminal justice, race relations and health care round out the list of top voter concerns, according to a September Kaiser Family Foundation poll. Democratic voters, according to the poll, place a higher emphasis on health as a voting issue than Republicans.

But Democrats also have shifted their health care emphasis from the early part of 2020, when it was a top concern, to this fall when it slipped behind

How digital ‘front doors’ are changing healthcare

October 5, 2020
| No Comments
| Health And Fitness

In the wake of the pandemic, healthcare has seen dramatic shifts in how patients access and receive care. Technology has become a more critical enabler than before in ensuring patients can easily access care – a fundamental challenge for the primary care market, which is arguably the most contested competitive space in healthcare today.

In the past couple of years, the notion of the digital “front door,” which refers to digital access points for primary care services, has been slowly gaining traction.  In an earlier column on digital front doors, I referred to the competition between traditional healthcare providers and non-traditional firms such as CVS and Walgreens. The pandemic has accelerated the adoption of virtual care models using telehealth and online self-service tools by specialized companies such as Teladoc and American Well. Both of them have seen their telehealth visit volumes go through the roof. Now big tech seems to

WH virus protocol not changing despite diagnoses

| Health Current Events

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Latest on President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump testing positive for the coronavirus (all times EDT):

2:40 p.m.

The White House does not appear to be making any changes to current virus protocol, even after President Donald Trump and the first lady tested positive for COVID-19.

A senior White House official said Friday that masks will still not be mandatory at the White House, describing facial coverings as “a personal choice,” despite overwhelming evidence that they help to stop the spread.

And the White House is not planning to move to a different, more reliable testing system after the one it uses failed to detect that adviser Hope Hicks had the virus the day she began experiencing symptoms.


The president, his White House and his campaign have generally taken a lax approach to the pandemic, continuing to hold large events and failing to abide

Changing how you inhale and exhale could help reduce coronavirus anxiety

October 1, 2020
| No Comments
| Health

Fear, worry and anxiety during the coronavirus pandemic debilitates your mental and physical health. Amid this growing mental health crisis, some medical doctors are now prescribing a deep breathing technique for patients and physicians alike, nicknamed “box breathing.”

Intentional deep breathing exercises are known to reduce feelings of stress. Experts interviewed by ABC News identify box breathing as a type of breath hold specifically used to overcome the type of anxiety people are experiencing during these distressing times.

Initially honed by elite fighters as a wartime stress-fighting tactic, this breathing technique is now taking hold among health care workers battling the coronavirus pandemic.

Box breathing describes the pattern of inhaling slowly and deeply through your nose to the count of four. You inhale for four seconds, hold for four seconds, exhale for four seconds and then repeat in four seconds — making a square pattern. Practiced regularly, it has been

How COVID-19 Is Changing Employee Benefits

September 30, 2020

| Health Benefits

As more employers and employees embrace remote work out of necessity and convenience, employee benefits technology will only become more important.

In the new normal, with so many teams working under distributed models for the foreseeable future, organizations will need ways to both strengthen employer-employee relationships and support employees through this difficult period from afar. That’s where benefits technology comes in.

Even When the Pandemic Ends, Remote Work Will Not

According to Global Workplace Analytics, 75 million US workers hold jobs that could be done from home. That accounts for 56 percent of the non-self-employed US workforce. While many of these employees are working remotely now thanks to COVID, there’s little reason to believe they’ll all be heading back to the office in the future.

In a Gartner survey this past April, 74 percent of CFOs said they were planning to move at least 5 percent of their workforces remote

6 ways the pandemic is changing the benefits employees want

It’s that time of year again. The weather’s cooler. Pumpkin spice is infused into everything around you. And, for many companies, the employee benefits enrollment period is coming around again.

In the weeks leading up to this time, many organizations conduct surveys to better understand what employees want in their benefits plans. Here are some of their pandemic-era findings:

Benefits have increased in importance

Benefits are a crucial—and expensive—part of an employee’s compensation package. A new survey by Prudential Insurance found that 52% of employees surveyed would leave their job for one with the “right” benefits. Seventy-seven percent said that benefits are a “key part of their compensation”—that’s 10% more than last year.

That’s largely due to the pandemic, says Leston Welsh, head of business segments at Prudential Group Insurance. “The value that employees are now placing on their workplace benefits is similar to the value that employers are now
