The Three Keys to Health and Longevity

Whether you’re just starting out on your journey to optimal health, or seeking fresh and innovative insights, Dr. Kiltz’s three pillars to health, wellness, and longevity are here to help

  • Pillar I

    High-Fat Low-Carb Eating

    A diet centered on whole, animal-based fatty foods provides an abundance of bioavailable nutrients while reducing inflammatory sugars, plant toxins, and antinutrients

  • Pillar II

    Intermittent Fasting

    Our bodies are primed by evolution to function optimally when intermittently fasting. Benefits include cellular renewal, hormone rebalancing, reduced inflammation, neurological protection, and longevity

  • Pillar III

    Mindlfulness, Meditation & Slowing Down

    Rest, digest, and reset. Meditation and low-impact movement attunes us to the present moment, balance our nervous systems, reduce anxiety, stress, and inflammation, while boosting immune function, mental focus, and memory

Pillar I

High Fat Low Carb Diet

The first pillar of health, wellness, and longevity is the food we eat. As the father of medicine Hippocrates implored, “Let food be thy medicine.” A low-carb high-fat diet based on nutrient-dense animal foods brings our physiology into alignment with the natural ways humans evolved to eat since the dawn of our species

  • Paleo Diet

    The Paleo Diet is a popular diet focused on eliminating highly processed foods and consuming fresh meats, seafood, fruits, root vegetables, nuts, and seeds. While it’s better than the Standard American Diet, there are numerous reasons as to why this is not the optimal human diet nor is it what humans actually ate in the paleolithic period.

  • Standard Keto Diet

    A keto diet dramatically reduces carbs and increases fat intake. Keto has been shown to support the immune system,  promote fertility, maintain cardiovascular health, regulate mood, and promote bone health

  • Carnivore Diet

    A carnivore diet calls for eating 100% animal foods and eliminates all plant foods. It accords most closely with the dietary patterns humans evolved on for nearly two million years. As a type of keto, the carnivore diet enhances many of keto’s benefits while eliminating plant toxins and antinutrients

Why High Fat Low Carb

A high-fat low-carb diet based on animal foods runs contrary to outdated mainstream dietary recommendations. When we study the traditional diets of cultures that have extremely low incidences of modern diseases, a pattern emerges: Fatty, nutrient-dense animal products are front and center. A high-fat low-carb diet honors our evolutionary physiology by fueling our bodies with the most nutritious foods on earth and eliminating plant toxins and excess sugar th

Foods

Nutrients

The Vegetative Burden

Mainstream nutritional guidelines calling for three meals a day of plant-based foods results in consuming chronically high sugar intake along with inflammatory plant toxins and antinutrients. These foods inhibit digestive enzymes, blocks the absorption of nutrients, and clogs digestive tracts with sugars and abrasive fiber leading to chronic inflammation, constipation, and GI disorders

The Vegetative Burden

  • Phytic Acid

    Abundant in grains and legumes, phytic acid binds with minerals, proteins, enzymes, and starches, impairing the absorption of proteins, and minerals such as iron, zinc, calcium, and magnesium.

  • Lectins

    Lectins are found in grains, legumes, nuts, and dairy. They bind to joints, nerve junctions, myelin sheaths, and intestinal cells, causing inflammation, permeability in the gut, malnutrition, and digestive problems

  • Gluten

    Gluten (a common lectin) intake can lead to anxiety, chronic inflammation, and sleep problems, among many other health issues. For people with celiac disease, gluten can be debilitating

  • Oxalates

    Oxalates bind to minerals and limit the absorption of vital nutrients including iron, calcium, and magnesium. They can suppress immune function and reduce mitochondrial activity while promoting fungal infections in the intestines

  • Phytohormones

    Prevalent in soy and over 300 other plant foods, phytohormones mimic estrogen and are linked to decreased fertility in men and women.  These compounds may be a plant’s way of reducing populations of herbivore predators

  • Sugar

    The average American consumes a staggering 3 pounds of sugar each week. Consuming sugar increases stress hormones, depletes minerals and antioxidants, increases inflammation, and feeds cancer cells. All plant foods break down into glucose–a simple sugar molecule

  • Fiber

    We’ve all been told that fiber is essential, but modern research tells a different story. In fact, fiber is unnecessary and can be harmful when consumed in high quantities, leading to bloating, inflammation, constipation, and reduced fertility

    Intermittent Fasting

    Ancestral Eating Patterns that Benefit Modern Life

    Humans evolved on a dietary cycle of feasting on large animals and intermittently fasting between successful hunts. Over eons, the men and women whose brains and bodies functioned best in fasted states became the best at hunting food, surviving, and reproducing. We are their offspring.

    As part of a modern lifestyle, intermittent fasting aligns us with our evolutionary physiology, liberates us from food addictions, and opens up time and mental space for relationship, career, and creative goals

    Mind, Body, Smile

    • Mind

      Meditation, visualization, intentions, and sleep strategies help focus awareness on the things that matter most in life. Our attention is our greatest asset, and it can be used in ways that unlock the potential of our minds and bodies

    • Body
