This week on The Unfiltered MD, Dr. Terry Simpson explains the rapidly growing Cyclospora outbreak, why "explosive diarrhea" has become the biggest infectious disease story of the week, how this microscopic parasite spreads through fresh produce, why yesterday's salad probably wasn't the culprit, and what actually works to prevent infection. He also reviews new research on coffee and liver health, the Mediterranean diet and dementia prevention, obesity treatment, GLP-1 medications, measles, vaccines, and the latest peptide controversy. Evidence-based medicine with a little Norwegian soccer and culinary humor mixed in.
