FODMAPs, Fear, And Finding Your Dose

The Dr. Jules Plant-Based Podcast ·

2026/03/01

Bloating after “healthy” meals, random cramps, or bathroom roulette can make food feel like the enemy. We break down FODMAPs in plain language and show how a short-term, guided approach can calm IBS symptoms without cutting the very foods that protect long-term health. Instead of fear, we offer a framework: treat the burden, not the food. We start by explaining what FODMAPs are, fermentable oligo-, di-, and monosaccharides and polyols, and why they can trigger gas and draw water into t...

The Dr. Jules Plant-Based Podcast ·

2026/02/25

Perfection isn’t the point, progress is. We open the mic for an unscripted, science-grounded conversation about what “plant-based” actually means, why success lives on a spectrum, and how small, low-friction changes can flip your health trajectory without blowing up your life. Rather than chasing a 100% label, we focus on the dose-response benefits of eating more minimally processed plants and cutting back on ultra-processed foods and red and processed meat. The takeaway is clear: your ...

Collagen Claims, Clear Science

The Dr. Jules Plant-Based Podcast ·

2026/02/22

Collagen promises smoother skin, happier joints, and faster recovery, but what holds up when we strip away the hype and read the best studies? We unpack the newest research since 2023 and draw a clear line between modest, measurable effects and results that melt under tighter controls. If you’ve wondered whether those powders and gummies are worth the price, this conversation gives you honest context without shaming your choices. We start by laying out how to read supplement science: f...

2026/02/18

La phrase la plus dangereuse en santé pourrait bien être « Je me sens bien ». Nous expliquons comment un déclin silencieux, dans la MPOC comme dans la perte musculaire liée à l’âge, peut gruger la fonction bien avant que les symptômes ne deviennent alarmants, et pourquoi la prévention demeure la meilleure stratégie pour préserver l’autonomie. À partir d’un cas réel de patient, nous décortiquons ce que signifie réellement un VEMS à 44 %, comment chaque infection respiratoire laisse...

Chrononutrition: Why Meal Timing Changes Your Health

The Dr. Jules Plant-Based Podcast ·

2026/02/15

Your body doesn’t treat breakfast and dinner the same way, and once you understand why, meal timing becomes a powerful lever for better health. We dig into chrononutrition, the science of how circadian rhythms shape appetite, insulin sensitivity, and energy metabolism, and we translate it into simple steps that fit real life. We start by mapping the daily hormone dance: morning light sparks a cortisol rise that mobilizes energy, adenosine builds sleep pressure through the day, and melatonin ...

Une mémoire n’est jamais qu’un simple fichier dans le cerveau, c’est un fil qui nous relie à ce que nous sommes. Nous ouvrons l’épisode avec des récits sincères tirés de l’expérience de notre propre famille avec la maladie d’Alzheimer, ainsi que du poids silencieux porté par les proches aidants, puis nous passons à ce que la science nous dit aujourd’hui pour protéger l’esprit de demain. L’objectif n’est ni la perfection ni la peur, mais une prévention pratique, ancrée dans la vraie vie....

From Burnout To Balance: Why Sleep Beats Hustle

The Dr. Jules Plant-Based Podcast ·

2026/02/08

What if the grind that built your career is quietly breaking your health? We share a candid story of chasing productivity through 70–80 hour weeks, new fatherhood, on-call nights, and late teaching prep that spiraled into stress, palpitations, and creeping burnout, then the pivot that turned sleep into a non-negotiable performance tool. Together we unpack why sleep is an active biological process, not downtime. You’ll hear how deep sleep drives tissue repair and metabolic recovery, how...

The Dr. Jules Plant-Based Podcast ·

2026/02/04

Fear sells, but at what cost to our health? In this unscripted, heart-to-heart conversation, I address a troubling pattern I've noticed in wellness culture: the rise of fear-based health information that lacks crucial context and nuance. When patients ask me whether chia seeds are "toxic" unless soaked, or show me how their healthy peanut butter scores poorly on wellness apps while processed diet foods receive high marks, I worry about the impact of black-and-white thinking on our relationsh...

The Trauma That Shaped Me

The Dr. Jules Plant-Based Podcast ·

2026/02/01

A father ran down a hospital hallway and placed his lifeless child in our arms. That single moment changed how we practice, how we teach, and how we judge the flood of health advice that fills our feeds. We talk candidly about the weight of trust, why humility can save lives, and how real medicine often starts with knowing when to call for help, and doing it fast. From there, we zoom out to the online health economy, where fear and urgency sell quick fixes. We unpack the red flags behi...

2026/01/28

Ever wonder what really happens behind the scenes in your family doctor's practice? In this raw, unfiltered episode, I open up about the everyday realities of primary care medicine that patients rarely get to see. The morning starts in my surgical clinic with a challenging decision – accommodate an anxious young patient by performing procedures on both ingrown toenails instead of one, knowing it will delay every appointment afterward. This everyday scenario reveals a fundamental difference b...

Antibiotics: Use With Care

The Dr. Jules Plant-Based Podcast ·

2026/01/25

Imagine a world where a paper cut lands you in the ICU and a routine hip replacement feels risky. We trace how antimicrobial resistance (AMR) gets us there, and what it takes to steer away, by decoding how bacteria outsmart antibiotics and why everyday choices either fuel or slow that arms race. Along the way, we connect the dots to gut health, showing how the microbiome’s postbiotics support appetite, hormones, barrier integrity, and brain signaling, and why unnecessary antibiotics can...

2026/01/21

Have you ever wondered why the number on your scale doesn't tell the whole story? This raw, unscripted episode from my new "From the Heart" segment dives deep into the science of body composition and why it matters more than your weight. Drawing from a real patient case study, I break down how a 68-year-old man with fatty liver and prediabetes discovered through body composition analysis that his health challenges weren't just about being overweight—he was dangerously under-muscled with toxi...

Fiber That Fights Back

Your gut can love fiber, or fight it. We unpack why the same bowl of beans leaves one person energized and another doubled over, and how timing, dose, and microbiome diversity decide which way it goes. Drawing on clinical experience and a landmark Stanford study from Erica and Justin Sonnenburg, we break down the difference between piling on fiber versus preparing your gut to handle it, and why fermented foods often deliver a reliable boost in diversity and lower inflammation. We start...

Que se passe-t-il lorsque vous vous sentez parfaitement bien, mais que votre corps se détériore silencieusement? Cette conversation brute et non planifiée est née après avoir vu plusieurs patients refuser des traitements potentiellement transformateurs simplement parce qu’ils ne présentaient pas encore de symptômes. Je partage l’histoire bouleversante d’une patiente atteinte de MPOC sévère dont la fonction pulmonaire était déjà réduite à seulement 44 %, mais qui a refusé le traitement parce q...

Raising Kids In The Algorithm Age

What if the loudest voices shaping your child’s mind aren’t in your home, but inside their phone? As a physician, a dad, and a creator, I walk through the paradox of using social media for good while watching the same systems chip away at kids’ mental health, attention, and empathy. We pull back the curtain on how algorithms exploit developing brains, turning streaks and notifications into compulsive loops that feel like connection but often deliver anxiety and shame. I share real clin...

Have you ever considered that your weight loss approach might be fundamentally flawed? After a powerful conversation with a patient who experienced a breakthrough in her health journey, I felt compelled to share this insight during my lunch break, sometimes the most profound wisdom comes from the simplest shift in perspective. Rather than obsessing over losing weight, this patient focused on gaining health. This subtle but revolutionary mindset shift transforms the entire approach to w...

Dr. Jules Cormier was living a medical nightmare. Despite being a practicing physician, he was battling severe angioedema that sent him to the emergency room with life-threatening swelling after simple activities like playing basketball or experiencing temperature changes. Medications barely managed his symptoms, and he lived in constant fear of the next potentially fatal reaction. Everything changed when his infant daughter began experiencing similar inflammatory conditions – blood in her d...

Bloodwork Basics: When Testing Makes Sense

The Dr. Jules Plant-Based Podcast ·

2025/12/21

"Should you get routine blood work?" seems like a straightforward question, but the answer lies in understanding how our bodies process nutrients and when testing actually provides meaningful information. Nutrient deficiencies can be surprisingly sneaky, calcium deficiencies might take decades to show up in blood tests while silently damaging bone health, and even B12 deficiencies can remain hidden for 6-12 months before symptoms emerge. For those following or transitioning to plant-ba...

What if a silent thief was stealing your bone strength right now, and you had no idea until it was too late? Osteoporosis affects millions worldwide, yet most people remain completely unaware until a seemingly minor fall results in a life-altering fracture. Think of your bones like a bank account. During your teens and twenties, you make deposits, building peak bone mass by your early thirties. After that, the withdrawals begin. Whether you end up with strong, resilient bones or fragile ones...
