Doctor On The Carnivore Diet and Fertility | Robert Kiltz

EP 218The Mikhaila Peterson PodcastPublished December 27, 2024

In this episode, I was joined by Dr. Robert Kiltz (⁠@doctorkiltz) a fertility expert and proponent of animal based diets. We explored the role of sugars and glycans in health and disease–Dr. Kiltz detailed how these compounds impact metabolic diseases, from cancer to infertility, and we discussed why understanding their effects is crucial for addressing modern health challenges. We also delved into plant-based diets and their potential effects on reproductive health. Throughout our conversation, Dr. Kiltz emphasized the importance of questioning traditional health narratives, such as the food pyramid, which he believes could be undermining fertility and overall wellness. He detailed how getting away from a plant-based diet can reduce inflammation, improve reproductive outcomes, and address chronic conditions like diabetes and autoimmune disorders.

Introduction

The fermentable nature of plants

I do my meditation and prayer I do my 100 push-ups I will do my live at 5: Monday through Friday it's my it's my actual daily meditative work to connect with God and the universe and other people I talk about faith and food and fitness and lots of other things related all the stuff we're talking about and and I run a large business and I relationship and family and all these sort of things but at the end of the day I take one to three naps a day day oh interesting I go to bed at 8 to 9:00 at night we need to rest more and nap more to reset the synapse it's napping could be 5 to 10 minutes that's all it takes and so we've been brainwashed with napping you shouldn't nap you got to keep going and then you're taking all your power drinks right your energy drinks right like like we got to get rid of most of that you don't need it but we're addicted to it we line up in lines to get all this addictive drinks and addictive foods and addictive things to keep us going take a nap your pro naap yeah I think I was so chronically fatigued when I was sick I W I was sleeping 18 hours a day I was on Aderall to just try and be awake that I was like as soon as I got healthy it was like I have energy this is what energy feels like I'm awake I was like oh I never want to nap again I had like an aversion to sleep after you know I don't know how many years maybe 10 years of chronic fatigue it was like and so I know part of it psychological CU people are like yeah I take a nap in the afternoon it's amazing and was like I hate naps and I think part of it psychological from the aversion to napping because of chronic fatigue napping is critical Lions most carnivores sleep a lot we insist our children when they're very young nap you know how they get cranky and they take a nap and they feel better I have a couch in every office that I have and I'll shut the door and people know oh he's taking his 10-minute nap it might be one time a day it might be three times a day I might drive to work and the first thing I do is lay down and I take a 5 to 10 minute but I'm I'm going through a prayer ritual it's usually thank you God creator for everything in my life I go through all the people in my life with gratitude I'll even go through the the hardships the challenges and even the Judgment negatively with love and kindness and generosity because the mindset is the critical part to this story if you're working to accomplish something you want to listen and learn from others that have done it you want to read about it you want to immerse yourself in it you're appr we're apprenticing life this is no apprenticeship right this idea that we show up and we know everything yeah I'm a failure I fail all the time but that's you want to lead yourself to I learned to fly airplanes at 55 Jets at 62 cool I I you know it's kind of amazing you know I every year I go for my in Scottsdale go for my single pilot recurrence training in a simulator they try to kill me you know it's kind of hard in a simulator I always bring a co-pilot when I fly at 41,000 ft but life is full of co-piloting you can Google anything today you can listen and watch someone doing something to learn something that's the beauty of the universe today and the beauty of like gee I got psoriasis you know what can I learn to do or or I've got migraines or I kind of depressed I learned I I Mrs Wong in in in high school taught me to throw on the potter's wheel and make jewelry I sell cups online Kilts cups they're made out of clay I call them they're made out of Stardust but I make cups that are all unique and different but we are all unique and different and so then I learned to paint about 15 20 years ago I went to the Modern Art Museum in in in in Paris with my daughter and like a million-dollar painting on a DOT of white on a black canvas I say I could do that and so the trick of life is that you can do anything because you're a human being you are a goddess and a God because it's built in our DNA all of us but the programs that we've been living are what we're not and I always say you just turn it around and that's the most powerful thing we can all do every single day listen and learn from others to have succeeded at what we wish to succeed at yeah when I first decided so it like when I'm thinking back about what happened to me I the first thing I did was decide to get healthy yeah right and I wasn't very old and I'd been told my entire life that I was going to have like these diseases especially the rheumatoid arthritis forever there was no cure there was some promising new medication and like I'd been on it was like this is this ain't it uh but I remember at one point I was like if I keep going down this route I'm going to die that's what's going to happen to me like if I keep taking this medication and I keep disintegrating cuz my joints were disintegrating I'm going to die um so rather than that I'm going to do whatever I can to be healthy and I think I just got to the point where I was old enough and I think younger people can do this too but for me I was I was on a lot of medication I was very brain foggy I was 23 at the time and I was like I'm going to either get healthy or I'm going to die trying to get healthy and after chronic illness for my entire life it took eight months after that I was in biomedical science trying to like research my way out of it took 8 months after that to restrict down my diet and restrict enough things that my symptoms start to go away I was like as soon as so basically as soon as I decided I'm going to do whatever it takes to get healthy eight months later I put myself in remission I was like that's not very long like mindsets huge and you don't have a disease and you're not in remission think about poison ivy do you have a poison ivy disease definitely not you've been exposed to a toxin that causes every disease we suffer from that's all it is it's simple remove the toxins you yeah yeah yeah I I do believe that yeah but we basically we live our diseases right I I'm in remission right I will have like I will have this disease forever which I don't believe neither do I we're brainwashed and then we're all giving money to more of the science of finding a cure for a disease which is simply secondary to plant poisoning and low-fat diet that's it but we learn that's the beauty of humanity we're able to learn and change and the real drive you had the drive I mean I kind of tripped over it I I didn't you know I was taking all the drugs and seeing the doctors for all the problems I suffer from including arthritis psoriasis migraines Etc depression anxiety ADHD OCD wow we have a lot of labels of problems I know I know we do I had a lot of labels too and the books that we have to look up all the codes to give you a diagnosis to make sure that you get the right care and I get paid right is like ridiculous yeah I was mad when I found out that rid when when I was a kid I used to go to the hospital for sick children in Toronto and the rheumatoid arthritis Ward was right next to the lupus Ward but they were separate Wards it was like treated as a completely different thing and then when I got healthy and was like those even manifest almost identically but the re like the even the research into it is separated because they have different names like this is crazy the this is crazy these are all caused by the same thing same thing my sister Maryanne uh died at 52 she was diagnosed with diabetes type 1 at age 4 and I never understood the disease truly my best friend from Medical School Dave died at 52 the same year he had is a healthy guy amazingly healthy gets diagnosed with leukemia and 3 months later he's dead and so the question was why and this is all the same time I'm beginning to dig deep into understanding the why part of it cancers are caused by antigens and the the number one antigen is a is a sugar from a plant the glycocalix is the sugar layer that is actually the barcode of our body and so the the fatty membrane of the cell has embedded proteins in them and then there are sugars that are the antenna or the transmitter that is the cause of all our disease so you have a specific human lucite antigen marker made up of some sugars all organisms have unique sugars that are part of their body so every muscle cell every cell of every um uh tissue of our body and every animal we eat our microb contains fats proteins and sugars the sugars are antigenic not the proteins your blood type is determined by a sugar not a protein and so when we understand the glyx and the glycobiome we'll understand how diseases really happen and bacteria yeast and viruses all have their own sugar layer a sperm and egg has its own sugar layer so the sperm must attach to the egg's sugar layer in order to fertilize it if that Sugar layer is damaged guess what it won't fertilize if the embryo's sugar layer is damaged or the uterine lining sugar layer is damaged it can't implant so if I'm putting foreign sugars into you and I'm putting a lot of sugar into you it's going to damage your body it's going to damage your glycobiome your glyco KX blood vessels lymphatics paral surfaces every cell of your body has a sugar layer if I damage it I erode the cells and so very few people know about the glyx and the glycobiome mhm everyone's talking about the how important the microbiome is it's a killer the microbes are there that doesn't mean a good for you would you put bacteria yeast or virus would you inject it into your bloodstream of course not so what do you think about these studies on like certain certain say sacr mises you know they say when you take antibiotics take sacchromyces which is like it's a yeast right probiotic what do you think about that kind of thing do you think they're all bad across the board or is it like the majority of what we're eat like what we're growing on a standard American diet just isn't good for us we don't need that type of variety well well we're feeding the microbes yeah and then we're blaming the microbes for the disease when it's the plants so our studies we've been focusing on oh those microbes are really important for you well you're right when you're sick don't they tend to be really abnormal in amounts or the different species but that doesn't mean they're the cause of it the plant sugars are the cause because I'm feeding the the microbes with things they like in an in an aerobic environment or right no no oxygen and so those microbes make all the the alcohol alahh methane and more heat is is heat in your colon good for you if I heat up your colon what's that going to do to your reproductive system it's going to damage it so is is probiotic World a billion dooll business yeah so am I gonna am I going to support the science on that one I am but it's wrong I believe again you know that the majority of the scientists in recommend a plant-based diet yeah but you know what it did to you and I know what it did to me and I believe that a plant-based low-fat diet causes cancer and I mention low fat because if you're eating a lot of lean meat you're also fermenting in your gut and a protein poisoning is real plant poisoning is real you will kill a cow if you feed it fat did you know that no no do you know why because the microbes in the Rin are killed on a fat diet a cow cannot live without the microbes it requires that we do not can you eat plants and live a long time sure you can but unfortunately sudden death from cancers or stroke or heart disease is very common I was just talking to one of my patients his wife just died in bed they don't know why she died in her 30s unknown cause wow I wonder if it could be the plants which are fermenting and providing the toxins that they make in order to control and kill you which seems kind of radical and crazy right but is our world do we care more for the you know the people who make a lot of money or for the peasants in the world money has become the mission of our world and money should never be the thing you go for helping people that's what we're here to do but I think we're we're we're sort of um distracted I love pizza pasta and bread so good yeah small amounts from time to time is not your killer unless you have an anif degre action mhm and we don't know who or why my partner was on on uh Highway 90 a few years ago after having a dinner with some crab which she'd had before she gets an anaphylactic reaction on the road pulls over calls 911 she survived thankfully but why we are allergic to some things and not others I don't know which one when I don't know but riby steak yeah never heard of it yep cool okay where can people find you online where can they go to see your your morning live uh Dr kilz.com is a good place to surf and uh I'm on Instagram YouTube Facebook I think I'm on Tik Tok but I don't know and thankfully I have some people that helped me do this but I get on my lives myself usually 5:00 a.m.

The role of supplements and diet in pregnancy

Monday through Friday eastern time and I take questions comments I do I read some quotes from other uh beautiful people have written great stuff um and I talk about keto carnivore and I I put keto in there by the way because it gets you in the waiting room of life and that's real important it's the onramp uh but and I I'm I uh I go to meetups around the country around World I'll be in London uh on uh on Saturday I'm looking forward to going to uh Australia next year here uh but just look up Dr kilz.com and uh you can even text me people find my cell phone number online and I share this all day long because we're here to share the word in the way and helping people heal that's so nice well thank you very much for joining me it was interesting and thank you for all you do you know I I agree like I think I've had so many friends especially my age grow up and be like yeah we'll put off kids have a career you can do it later and then because of the Health crisis it's like can you do it later like that's that's risky and just devalues how much happiness even though I really don't enjoy being pregnant and who knows what kind of issues that's because of but it there's just there's like nothing that's more actual Soul fulfilling you know the most important thing is building your families and whether you're reproducing yourself or you're helping others and their reproduction that's the most important thing but I think that um we're brainwashed in our modern world you know we're oh it's too difficult it's too hard you shouldn't do that and we need to be more inspiring and we're a village this is really a village of helping people this is this is meant to invite people in to these podcasts and ask questions and and question our thinking and what are we thinking why this or that but you know I appreciate you and what you're sharing uh it is important to share our stories cuz we're just another story yeah I think I guess I'll I'll close with this I think one of the reasons too we've been brainwashed right into thinking that a career and making money and accomplishing things whatever that is is more important than having a family which you can do whenever later um I think part of the reason it's gotten so difficult now is because people don't have these communities around them to raise kids anymore so like my best friend had kids she's in downtown Toronto none of her friends had any I had moved away so it's like she's at home by herself and she loves her kids and like wouldn't change anything but it's it's isolating for people like I went I spent time in in Serbia and it was so surprising to me to go outside to a cafe and there were all these people in their like late 20s early 30s that had two or three kids running around and they were sitting at a table all together like one person would be breastfeeding and they were just hanging out with each other and their kids were hanging out together and I was like you just don't see that you know you're kind of depending on where you live you're kind of scoffed at if you go to a restaurant with little kid they're like oh is this little kid going to be a problem and you go to other places in the in the world and they have like little dayc carees in the restaurant so you can go and have a meal your kid can hang out with other kids like it's built into the culture and in North America it's like I think that I think we're on the right path I think we're going back to how it should be but it segregated people for a long time who had children it's very sad we're building a village that's what this is really all about we're inviting people to come together and get back to our old ancient ways and working together uh is critical and helping others that are suffering is really important in life agreed well thank you very much for coming on God bless you thank you [Music]
