NBC reports that Walmart has announced
it will close all 52 of the doctor-staffed
health clinics the company operates.

part of the company's decision to
shut down its Walmart Health Initiative.
Clinics that will close down are located in
Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Illinois and Texas. .
On April 30, the company also said it would
begin winding down its virtual care service.

pharmacies and vision centers.
Walmart said that it will work to direct current patients
to other providers covered by their insurance
networks to ensure they continue to receive care.
NBC reports that the news comes as a swift
reversal of Walmart's plan to expand its number
of doctor-staffed clinics to 70 by the end of 2024.
Through our experience managing
Walmart Health centers and
Walmart Health Virtual Care,
we determined there is
not a sustainable business
model for us to continue, Walmart statement, via NBC.
Other nontraditional health care
providers have also been forced to
reconsider their plans in recent years. .
Last month, Walgreens announced that it would
close 140 of the company's primary care clinics,
along with plans to shut down 20 more.

How Fermented, Pickles , Can Improve Your Health.
'Time' recently offered readers
a guide to fermented pickles and how
to get the most out of this "super food.".
Fermentation, After sitting in brine for several weeks,
healthy bacteria acts on sugars inside
vegetables, converting them to lactic acid.
These live microbes also affect the gut
in a number of ways that improve health.
In general, fermented vegetables have been
linked to significantly improved glucose
metabolism and a more robust immune system.
Fermented veggies have also been linked to a lower
risk of Type 2 diabetes, decreased triglyceride levels
and higher HDL cholesterol in people who ate them.
Other studies have linked fermented vegetables to
reduced psychological stress, which supports the theory
that the gut and the brain exchange crucial information.
We know the microbes, organic
acids and other metabolites
in fermented foods influence
communication between the gut
and brain in a positive way. , Andres Gomez, microbial ecologist at
the University of Minnesota, via 'Time'.
'Time' reminds readers that
many vegetables can be pickled,
including cabbage, carrots and peppers. .
However, experts note that pickles also contain a high
amount of sodium, associated with a number of adverse
health outcomes, so it becomes important not to overdo it. .
It’s okay to eat pickles daily if you’re
balancing out their sodium content
with fresh, low-sodium produce
like fruit and leafy greens, Frances Largeman-Roth, registered dietary nutritionist
and author of 'Everyday Snack Tray,' via 'Time'

FDA Testing Reveals , Bird Flu Virus , in 1 in 5 Milk Samples.
'Time' reports that the Food and Drug Administration
(FDA) has warned that traces of bird flu have been found
in nearly one-fifth of commercial milk samples tested. .
In a statement released on the agency's website,
the FDA said that traces of the virus do not
necessarily indicate a risk to consumers. .
According to the FDA, more tests are needed
to confirm if intact pathogens that remain
infectious are present in the samples.
Those tests would determine , "whether there is any risk of illness
associated with consuming the product.".
'Time' reports that the results of the study
come as a stark warning of how quickly the
virus is spreading among dairy cows in the U.S.
The virus has already killed millions of birds globally,
raising both health and food security concerns,
as well as spooking global markets.

mandatory testing of cows moving across state borders.
Authorities have stressed that the current
risk to humans remains low, with only one
identified human case in the U.S. this year. .
To date, the retail milk studies
have shown no results that would
change our assessment that the
commercial milk supply is safe. , FDA statement, via 'Time'
