< …>*$32,000 biweekly profits, Surely there is great good in serving God!!!*
Fascinating.
Yes! Kyle Gillett. I've listened to alot of professionals who specializes in human optimization, yet Kyle is one of the best. Wise beyond his years, yet relatable. He makes you want to be a better & healthier person!
Making money is an action.keeping money is a behaviour, but "Growing money is wisdom" I figured this out a week ago.
Tool one should be eat meat LOTS OF MEAT
This young man is very well spoken and full of so much knowledge. So much interesting information here and I will definitely follow Kyle on his social platforms. Thanks for the great conversation!
I just watched a video that says too much meat is bad for your kidneys. What do you think about carnivore diets ?
It is very disappointing that Dr Kyle Gillette is not connecting any of Rich’s very good questions back to hormonal imbalance. He appears to avoid the questions and never give direct answers 😢
Rich…i appreciate so many of your guests and life-changing info.
i'm about 20 minutes into the interview and am noticing that you're doing most of the talking…while i appreciate your input i 'm watching the vid to learn from this very well qualified person.
thank goodness for the transcript feature.
Very disappointed that only 5 minutes were spent on women's hormones when there is a increase in ovarian cancer right now for women. There are some female experts with more knowledge in female hormone health than this physician. Dr. Kirsty Sale in the UK is doing amazing research on menstrual cycle and performance. Perhaps consider having her on your podcast.
This guy’s awesome!! Would definitely make an appointment if I lived in Kansas!! Thanks Rich for introducing him!!👍
Ugh. Sorry. Chickens and angus. I’m so sad. Spiritual sad.
Loved this podcast. Looking at his website what doctor charges $5400 for 2 hours? Doctors you can do more so you don’t end up charging so much. Doctors role shouldn’t be to make money. You can be a businessman so you don’t compromise on your real calling which is to help people. Diversify your income so you can help more people and not have to charge excessively for consultations. We know you feel you’re worth that but come on. This isn’t surgery.
I love that you addressed the term "intuitive" eating. I've described my eating as intuitive for 15+ years now but when I started reading the intuitive book I realized that I've defined it differently. For me intuitive eating was my goal based on some overall boundaries. So basically I eat when and what I want but I also have a framework that I also pay attention to. Like sometimes I'm not eating enough fruit and vegetables so I don't freak out but I do force myself back into eating more fruits and vegetables even if it's not what I am craving.
Love this guy. So clear and to the point
This was a rare occasion….I did not enjoy this interview. Just didn’t capture my interest
I thought Dr. Gillet to be incredibly knowledgeable and articulate. I’m plant based, but still really enjoyed the interview.
Wait..a corny add every 7minutes now thats nuts 😒 come on RR ! And Rich, what do you mean to convey by your term, 'when we really get old' & when are you going to seek an alternative to that dumb term..'really'?Kyle..you are the brightest cool'r then cucumber guest to ever grace Rich's show. Your like Elon Musk.Totally focused & never detoured..way cool, & your parents must be spectacularly proud🎇 Have to say that RR's comment- 'want to feel like a man' may be the precursor to those libido mysteries. Today men are messaged not to feel. So of course as their scalps are becoming shiny, there's no lead in the stick, & the emotions are lacking enthusiasm..well of course.they're not going to feel. They'll just get more frustrated, more agitated- aggravated & head to the pharmacy . Men are screwed up as hell because they are absolutely convinced they suck. And compared to women they absolutely are.
I appreciate the inclusion of womens health. There is not nearly enough information discussed regarding womens health on top podcasts.
Xenoestrogen in plastic water bottles, yet crickets regarding estrogen in dairy? Like, he talks about IGF-1 in muscles but doesn't address the deleterious effects of meat consumption other than colon cancer and lack of fiber. Still progress though.
I always see people say that ice is worthless for injuries but whenever you see a footballer/soccer player worth millions leave the field for an injury, they without fail get ice strapped to it…are you saying the sport scientists at these clubs worth billions aren't up with the latest science?!
This is the second time Ive heard a reference for a Direct Primary Care Doctor. I hope it takes hold. It’s so needed. Thanks for an informative podcast.
Well interesting, but really disappointing. I agree with the comment below. How do you spend 2.5 hours talking and only 5 minutes on woman specifically.
So does he take all those supplements because he’s a carnivore?
I have a hard time taking serious a physician who has bad practices. I remember just getting out of nursing school and worked with an oncologist who smoked.
