Why are pregnant women advised to avoid eating fat when fat is one of the building blocks of the human body?

Dr. Robert Kiltz provides clear answers and dispels many of the misconceptions that have plagued us for far too long. As a fertility expert who focuses on metabolic health and incorporates nutrition in his practice, he challenges the generally accepted idea of a healthy diet and how it relates to fertility. Couples come to him when they struggle to conceive. And the primary reason, like every other disease, is inflammation. Plant-based diets and our avoidance of fat causes inflammation.

In this episode, Dr. Kiltz blows the lid off the myth that plant-based diets are always healthy. He explains how plant sugars can damage human reproductive organs. He also delves into the crucial role that fats play in pregnancy and how they can help ensure a healthy baby. It's about time to rethink what we eat, its impact on our health, and how this affects starting a family.

Get to know our guest
Dr. Robert Kiltz is a reproductive endocrinologist and a fertility specialist for almost 30 years. He is the founder and director of CNY Fertility.

“And if you're eating a plant-based diet, you're getting a little bit of heroin, cocaine, marijuana, nicotine, and caffeine. What does that have on the function of the brain? ADHD, OCD, autism, go down the list of every disease that you can imagine that humanity has described, or studied, in my bet is its first happening in utero. And the mom and the dad's diet that they're eating is damaging or affecting the sperm and the eggs that eventually make the embryo that's then affected in utero by that mom's diet.” - Dr. Robert Kiltz
