In this podcast episode, we interview Dr Robert Kiltz about fertility and the carnivore diet.

Dr. Kiltz is an accomplished fertility doctor who has gained recognition for his work in reducing the cost of In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) to one-third of the national average. He has been featured in numerous media outlets, including The Wall Street Journal, CNBC, and The Today Show for his groundbreaking achievements in reproductive medicine.

As a Diplomat of the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology and a board-certified expert in reproductive endocrinology and infertility, Dr. Kiltz has established himself as a leading figure in his field. He founded CNY Fertility and has worked as a clinical faculty member at both UCSF Medical School and the University of Syracuse Medical School.

Dr. Kiltz has a passion for the ketogenic/carnivore diet and believes that optimal nutrition is essential for both fertility and overall health and wellness. Drawing on decades of clinical practice, he has discovered that the foods we eat and how frequently we consume them are the primary causes of infertility and many other human diseases. He advocates for a carnivore diet that centers around fatty animal foods, which provides optimal nutrition while avoiding unhealthy carbohydrates, vegetable oils, and plant toxins. He also recommends intermittent feasting, such as eating one meal a day (OMAD).

Dr. Kiltz is an accomplished author and blogger, with a prolific presence in the keto carnivore space. He has published several books, including his most recent collaboration with Maria Emmerich, the Keto for Fertility Cookbook. He also hosts an interview series called Carnivore Conversations, which is broadcast on all major podcast platforms. This show examines how the keto/carnivore diet can improve health and environmental issues associated with the Standard American Diet (SAD).

In addition to his own media channels, Dr. Kiltz is a frequent speaker at fertility and dietary conferences and has shared his views as a speaker at TEDx. He appears regularly on popular blogs like DietDoctor.com and social media outlets. Dr. Kiltz has even launched his own line of grass-fed, pasture-raised, nutritional supplements called Doctor Kiltz Nutritional Solutions.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
