Dr Robert Kiltz, a medical doctor and prominent carnivore diet<\/a> proponent, has said that he no longer exclusively eats beef after developing acute colitis.<\/p>\n

He said that he has since added supplements and other animal foods like fish and cod liver oil to his diet. He has also introduced plant-based foods like algae, and noted that potato, broccoli, and asparagus would be \u201cOK,\u201d if served with plenty of dairy<\/a> fat.<\/p>\n

Kiltz, who is a fertility physician based in New York City, began eating a carnivore diet approximately 15 years ago. He made the comments about \u201csoftening\u201d his attitude toward other animal proteins and certain vegetables in a recent video published on his YouTube channel, which currently has 87 thousand subscribers.<\/p>\n

\u201cI love beef, but maybe my focus on only beef and carnivore is not going in the right direction completely. Maybe being a little bit softer and inclusive, that\u2019s what I\u2019m working on,\u201d said Kiltz.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u201cYou know, I\u2019m not ready for broccoli, but baked potato with a lot of sour cream and butter, yeah,\u201d he continued. \u201cBut I\u2019m going to say, hey, listen, if you throw a little bit of broccoli or asparagus in that, you know, that\u2019s OK. I say cook it well and add the fat.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kiltz also talked about the \u201cpolarizing\u201d nature of the carnivore diet and the need to \u201cbring people together.\u201d In addition to colitis, Kiltz said that his decision to diversify his diet came after higher CAC scores, which indicated more plaque sites in his arteries<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Carnivore diet is \u2018potentially harmful\u2019<\/p>\n

\"PhotoAdobe Stock Experts say that the carnivore diet is \u201cpotentially harmful,\u201d particularly long-term<\/p>\n

In March of this year, Dr Shireen Kassam, the founder and director of Plant-Based Health Professionals (PBHP), a nonprofit health and science advocacy organization, referred to the carnivore diet as a \u201cpseudo-scientific meal plan.\u201d She noted that an entirely animal-based diet contains no fiber, high quantities of saturated fat, and dietary cholesterol, increasing the likelihood of diabetes, stroke, and heart disease.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe carnivore diet is nutritionally unbalanced, unsustainable, and potentially harmful in the long run,\u201d wrote Kassam, in an article<\/a> debunking the lifestyle. \u201cWhile short-term benefits may come from eliminating processed foods, there are far healthier ways to achieve health goals without sacrificing essential nutrients<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n
