Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Most healthy people can eat up to seven eggs a week without increasing their risk of heart disease. Some studies have shown that this level of egg consumption may even help prevent certain types of stroke.

Eggs can be a part of a heart-healthy diet for a 50-year-old male when consumed in moderation. Here are some key points to consider:
-
Nutritional Benefits:
Eggs are rich in high-quality protein, vitamins, and minerals that support overall health. -

Moderation is Key:
Eating up to one egg per day is generally considered safe for heart health in healthy individuals. -
Individual Health Factors:
If you have existing heart disease, diabetes, or high cholesterol, it's best to consult your doctor for personalized advice. -

View allSo my mom had a very mild case of COVID, and it's been over two weeks since she's recovered, but she's been having this slight chest pain every now and then. It doesn't last long, like about 34 minutes at most. Im kinda worried about what could be causing this. Any idea what might be going on?
Chest pain that comes and goes after recovering from COVID-19 could be due to inflammation of the chest wall muscles or costochondritis. I recommend she take over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg as needed for pain relief. If the pain persists or worsens, she should consult with her healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm currently taking Tazloc AM for my high blood pressure, but it still isn't in the normal range. I'm concerned and wondering what could be causing this. Could there be something I'm missing or should I be trying something else? It's a bit worrying since I expected the medication to help more.
For a 5-year-old child, the expected visual acuity is: - 2030 to 2040 in each eye - Able to identify the 2030 or 2040 line on the Snellen chart - May not be able to read the 2020 line, which is the standard for adult vision Keep in mind that every child develops at their own pace. Consult a pediatric ophthalmologist or optometrist for a comprehensive eye exam.

I'm really worried about my dad who's 55 and has diabetes and high blood pressure. He went for a cardiac check-up about 10 days ago. The ECG came back abnormal but the 2D echo was normal, and the TMT report was positive. They started him on clopitab 75mg along with his regular meds for BP and diabetes, and now they've advised an angiogram. But here's the thing, he has no chest pain or symptoms, and he walks daily. I'm wondering if a CT angio might be a better option since it uses barium dye, and if the calcium score is negative, wed know theres less risk for a cardiac arrest. Could you give me some advice on this?
