Raising Kids In The Algorithm Age

The Dr. Jules Plant-Based Podcast ·

2026/01/11

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...

Breaking Free from Chronic Inflammation

The Dr. Jules Plant-Based Podcast ·

2025/12/28

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...

Feeling confused about nutrition advice in 2025? You're not alone. Despite our advances in science and technology, most nutrition information remains stuck in the past, leaving people confused and frustrated. In this myth-busting episode, Dr. Jules takes on the most persistent nutrition falsehoods circulating on social media and in everyday conversations.

Magnesium: Running On Empty

The Dr. Jules Plant-Based Podcast ·

2025/11/30

Magnesium might be the most underrated nutrient in your body's health arsenal. This powerful mineral acts as the essential backstage crew for over 300 enzyme systems, silently orchestrating everything from stress response and sleep quality to immune function and heart health. Yet astonishingly, about 40% of Canadians are walking around with chronic magnesium deficiency without even knowing it. Why does this matter? When your magnesium tank runs low, the effects ripple throughout your entire ...

You Can't Outrun Your Fork: Exercise Myths Debunked

The Dr. Jules Plant-Based Podcast ·

2025/11/23

Forget everything you think you know about exercise and weight loss. The truth might surprise you—and it's backed by science. Ever found yourself grinding away on the treadmill while the scale refuses to budge? You're not alone. Exercise is often touted as the answer to weight loss, but the research tells a different story. A 400-calorie muffin takes two minutes to eat but 45 minutes of jogging to burn off. Our bodies are even programmed to compensate after workouts by increasing hunger and ...

2025/11/16

The healthcare system is cracking under pressure, and it's not just about staffing shortages or budget cuts. Drawing from 19 years of medical practice, I peel back the layers of our current healthcare crisis to reveal what's really breaking the system: an epidemic of preventable lifestyle diseases. Remember when eating an apple instead of a processed granola bar wasn't considered "going on a diet"? Our modern world has engineered unhealthy choices to be the easiest ones, creating a perfect s...

Your Vitamins Might Be Hurting You More Than Helping

2025/11/09

The wellness world has convinced many of us that when it comes to vitamins and supplements, more equals better. This dangerous misconception has real consequences, as I've witnessed firsthand with patients like Samantha, whose well-intentioned supplement routine led to permanent nerve damage. Through Samantha's story, we explore how her daily stack of supplements—a multivitamin, B-complex, energy powder, and relaxation gummies—unknowingly delivered 140mg of vitamin B6 daily, far exceeding th...

What really happens after your doctor closes the exam room door? How do physicians feel when they can't give you the time you deserve? The healthcare system has trained us to focus on symptoms, tests, and diagnoses, but we rarely discuss the human experiences on both sides of medicine. Drawing from nearly two decades in healthcare, I'm pulling back the curtain to reveal what doctors wish every patient understood about their reality. The truth might surprise you: physicians carry your stories...

Habits Over Hacks: Why Health Information Deserves Depth

The Dr. Jules Plant-Based Podcast ·

2025/10/26

We're living in a world where depth has become a disadvantage. The infamous "TLDR" (Too Long, Didn't Read) mentality has infiltrated health communication, replacing nuanced discussion with catchy, often misleading soundbites. While scrolling through claims like "carbs are bad" and "seed oils will kill you," we've lost sight of what meaningful health information actually looks like. This episode unpacks how social media algorithms don't just shorten content—they actively filter it, creating d...

Dying Teaches Us How To Live: A Doctor's Reflection

2025/10/19

Death comes for us all, yet most of us live as though immortal. As a physician who's witnessed countless final moments, I've observed a heartbreaking pattern: people realizing too late that their health was never guaranteed, but rather the culmination of thousands of daily choices. This episode dives deep into what the deceased might tell us if they could speak again. The bedside confessions are startlingly consistent: "I thought I had more time." "I was too proud to change." "I wish I'd sta...

Fasting has become a health buzzword, but beneath the hype lies a complex metabolic tool with specific benefits and important caveats. In this comprehensive exploration, I break down the science behind different fasting approaches and reveal why not all fasting styles deliver the same results. The episode distinguishes between four major fasting types that are often confused: prolonged fasting (multi-day), intermittent fasting (alternate day or 5:2), time-restricted eating (daily eating wind...

Weight Gain After 40: The Science and Solutions

The scale's creeping up, but nothing about your diet or exercise has changed. Sound familiar? That frustrating weight gain after 40 isn't your imagination—it's biology. And while it may feel inevitable, science shows it's absolutely reversible. Your body undergoes significant shifts after 40 that directly impact weight management. Estrogen and progesterone begin their gradual decline, changing how and where fat is stored—shifting from subcutaneous (under the skin) to visceral (around organs)...
