Cannabis is more popular—and more potent—than ever. But is public health keeping up with the risks?

In this episode of Wellness Unmasked, Dr. Nicole Saphier breaks down the growing gap between cannabis legalization and the science on its health effects. From rising THC levels to increasing teen usage, she explains why today’s marijuana is not the same as it was decades ago—and why that matters.

Citing data from the CDC and multiple long-term studies, Dr. Saphier unpacks the real dangers of cannabis use, including addiction (cannabis use disorder), cognitive decline in young users, and increased risks of anxiety, psychosis, and schizophrenia—especially among adolescents and young adults. She also highlights emerging concerns around cardiovascular health and severe conditions like cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome.

This update also provides practical guidance for parents navigating the normalization of cannabis, including how to talk to kids about risks, what warning signs to watch for, and how to distinguish between medical and recreational use.

Plus, a look at leadership changes in public health as Dr. Jay Bhattacharya steps in as acting CDC director—and what it could mean for scientific transparency and trust.

Why are fewer Americans getting married—and having children? And what role should government policy play in reversing the trend?

On this episode of Wellness Unmasked, Dr. Nicole Saphier sits down with Kevin Roberts, President of the Heritage Foundation, to break down the growing marriage and fertility crisis in the United States—and the policy solutions aimed at addressing it.

They explore the cultural, economic, and policy-driven factors behind declining birth rates, including how federal programs may unintentionally discourage marriage. Roberts outlines bold proposals to incentivize family formation, from expanding tax credits for parents to rewarding early marriage and removing financial penalties for married couples.

The conversation also tackles the biggest criticisms:


Can pro-family policy support both careers and parenthood?


Do these proposals favor traditional family structures?


And what data actually says about outcomes for children and society

Plus, they discuss bipartisan messaging, economic barriers facing young Americans, and what success would look like if these policies are implemented.

If you care about the future of the American family, economic stability, and the policies shaping the next generation—this is a must-listen conversation.

Is modern medical drama shaping public opinion on healthcare policy?

On this episode of Wellness Unmasked, Dr. Nicole Saphier breaks down the hit series The Pitt—the ER-style drama starring Noah Wyle—and examines how Hollywood storytelling intersects with real-world healthcare debates.

From Affordable Care Act reform and EMTALA emergency room laws to measles outbreaks, vaccine skepticism, masking policies, abortion access, and transgender medical care, Dr. Saphier analyzes how complex medical issues are portrayed on screen—and where the narratives oversimplify the facts.

Topics covered in this episode include:


The truth about ER access before and after Obamacare


What EMTALA actually requires hospitals to do


Why ER overcrowding hasn’t improved despite Medicaid expansion


The resurgence of measles and declining vaccination rates


The real debate over masking policies in healthcare settings


Portrayals of abortion decision-making in emergency medicine


Ongoing medical debates around gender-affirming care for minors


Selective empathy and bias in modern healthcare storytelling

While praising the show’s gripping trauma scenes and nostalgic ER intensity, Dr. Saphier questions whether entertainment is replacing nuanced policy discussion with ideological framing.

Can trust in medicine be rebuilt without respect for differing viewpoints?

If you care about healthcare policy, public health, media influence, and restoring trust between doctors and patients, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.
