You've most certainly heard the phrase: "carbs are the enemy".  I'm hoping the person who made that statement wasn't a registered dietitian or a medical doctor, although if they were, I’m guessing they sell lifestyle books or wellness programs.  Turns out I was partly right.  In fact, carbs have been vilified since the dawn of the low-carb diet.  In the 1970's, Dr Robert Atkins, the father of the low-carb movement, published his Diet Revolution books, which went on to sell over 15 million copies.

He encouraged people to cut out all carbs and focus mainly on foods that contained the two other macronutrients: protein and fat.  No wonder this dietary pattern became so popular.  People were told to eat bacon, cheese and fried chicken, and even though prestigious scientific journals called these dietary recommendations dangerous and irresponsible, the damage to carb's reputation was already done.

Let me explain how calories from whole plant foods behave differently from the processed foods most people consume.  I’m sure you’ve heard it before.  “Calories in must equal calories out”, otherwise weight gain will follow.  This is nuanced and only partly true.  The saying “a calorie is a calorie“ assumes that a calorie coming from any food source, whether it’s French fries or a garden salad, will behave the same way once in our bodies.  Let me make it crystal clear, 700 calories coming from French fries WILL NOT affect your weight, metabolism and hormones the same way as 700 calories coming from an unprocessed whole food source.  I wouldn’t want someone looking to lose weight to choose processed foods instead of eating the same amount of calories from whole foods, thinking that their impact on weight gain or loss will be the same. 

People love hearing good news about their bad habits, so I’m sure they would love to hear that they can have the French fries, thinking its calories will have the same impact on weight than any other food with the same calories.  That simply isn’t true.  It assumes that 300 calories of French fries from McDonald’s will have the same impact on weight gain as 300 calories of beans or nuts and we know that this is not the case.

Talking about obesity is controversial in itself, but not talking about it isn’t better.  Some believe that obesity is a choice, even a lack of motivation.  They associate being overweight with being lazy and inactive, but is that really the case?  I personally don’t think so.  Let me explain why.

In this episode, I'll talk about obesity, processed foods and how they're linked.

Voici une épisode en français, ou plutôt en "chiac", le fameux dialecte acadien que l'on entends dans mon coin de pays au Nouveau-Brunswick, Canada.

Dans le but de diffuser mon message aux francophones de mon coin de pays, j'ai voulu inclure des épisodes en français! Voici le premier enregistrement qui discute d'un sujet assez controversé en nutrition: les contradictions.

C'est normal d'être confus lorsque l'on voit les opinions complètement opposées en ligne. Tout au long de cet épisode en français, j'essayerai de clarifier la confusion en nutrition.

When I transitioned to a plant-based diet more than a decade ago, I did it purely to improve my health. There was overwhelming proof that doing so might improve my asthma, eczema, urticaria and cholinergic angioedema. 

But as I put all of these conditions in remission, I started thinking about the other impacts that this diet would have on my athletic performance, weight and muscle mass, on my carbon footprint and on animal cruelty. Soon, I found myself connecting with all of these reasons and I decided to dive even deeper into plant-based nutrition. 

In this episode, I discuss the benefits of going plant-based and the reasons that might fuel your own personal journey towards a diet of health and compassion.

Malgré les opinions contradictoires et les perspectives extrémistes en ligne, il est important de comprendre que la plupart de nos choix existent sur un spectrum de bénéfices et de risques. 

Avant d'étiqueter une habitude comme bonne ou mauvaise, on doit comprendre le concept de toxicité, de dose et de durée d'exposition. Le danger potentiel dépendra de ces 3 facteurs.

Durant cet épisode, je ferai la revue du spectrum des choix alimentaires afin d'illustrer les nuances qui existent lorsque l'on parle des risques ou bénéfices d'un ingrédient ou d'un aliment spécifique.

I had been suffering from a combination of chronic diseases for a long time, but even this wasn't enough to make me change. I thought I was living a healthy life. I was exercising regularly and eating what I thought was a balanced diet.

When my daughters started showing signs of medical conditions similar to the ones that had been plaguing me, I knew I had to start thinking out of the box.

Here's my story. I went from the hospital to the world championships, from not even being able to run a few kilometers without puffers to running my first sub-2 hour half marathon without any puffers at all.

Everything pointed towards a whole food, plant-predominant diet. Here's how a managed to transition my whole family and reverse our medical conditions in the process.

My origin story is a remarkable one. I went from being sick, tired, overworked and overwhelmed to being diagnosed with cholinergic urticaria and angioedema. Add these medical conditions to my pre-existing asthma, eczema, migraines and GERD and you get a pretty frustrated person. But when my daughters started showing signs of medical conditions that had plagued me for years, that's when I decided to take matters into my own hands. Modern medicine wasn't helping and so I turned to evidence-based nutrition. Within a year, I had reversed or improved most of my medical conditions and gotten rid of all of my prescriptions drugs. Plant-based nutrition gave me my life back and I've since dedicated my free time to spreading the science.

My mission is to make this information easy to understand for everyone from the general public, to my medical students. I want to empower those looking to improve their health through the power of science backed lifestyle medicine. 

Although the science is very clear, there is still a lot of confusion online regarding what a healthy dietary pattern should look like. Let's bust some myths and clear up the confusion.
