Kerry Gets GRILLED by Dr Nelson (Live)!
In a Nutshell
**Healing Humanity** documentary is fully edited, attorney-reviewed, and releasing soon worldwide via theater screenings (Central Florida, St. Petersburg, Schaumburg IL) with free YouTube access planned later. Kerry shares its origin from raw carnivore healing stories (60 interviews, 9 doctors), crediting the diet for reversing her depression, heart failure, and enabling emotional breakthroughs during filming. Carnivore excels as an elimination diet fixing gut, inflammation, insulin resistance, and autoimmunity (e.g., MS, lupus), with future episodes targeting cancer, mental health, seniors, kids, and veterans; research first, prioritize fat over lean meat.

Dr. Nelson hosts the Kilts Health stream from Central Florida, asks viewers to share locations in chat, and introduces special guest Kerry (Kman) for questions on healing humanity, the documentary, and community. Kerry expresses gratitude and readiness to answer anything.
Dr. Nelson thanks Kerry for last-minute availability despite setup challenges and a recent consultation.
Documentary is 100% done: filmed, edited, test screened at Montello Theater and another theater, feedback incorporated. Final edit complete after adjustments. Attorney reviewing paperwork. Announcement expected within a week. Plans for worldwide theaters, home viewing, free options for those unable to pay, eventually free on YouTube for accessibility. Spent almost three years; Kerry watched final version last night.
Likely using distribution like Dave Felman's company for The Cholesterol Code. Dr. Nelson hosting Central Florida screening, Dr. Kilts in St. Petersburg—links in chat; tickets needed to avoid cancellation. Additional showing in Schaumburg, Illinois hosted by Jenny Midich of The Cholesterol Code (likely April 13th; Google "Schaumburg Illinois cholesterol code showing" on Gathr website). Jen, Kerry, and Adam attending.
Plan mirrors Cholesterol Code: theaters worldwide, meetups to fill theaters with hosts. Dr. Nelson planning bigger event with showing and meetup for Healing Humanity, possibly Q&A with Dr. Kiltz, Dr. Nelson, Dr. Kilts, or Dr. Barry via theater tech.
Meetup before/after screening; live Q&A in theater with remote experts.
Decision around late spring/early summer (day 67) with daughter Emma: "Let's make a documentary. How hard can it be?" Inspired by lack of carnivore docs on Netflix/Amazon/HBO despite powerful stories outweighing medium. Thought of filming on phone.
Inspired by Fathead (stand-up comedian Tom Naughton made keto doc with old camcorder, got on Netflix via strong stories/doctors/common sense).
Wanted carnivore version focusing on emotional, raw healing stories (not 2-hour science boring viewers). Kerry found carnivore via individual's healing story, not science.
Initial naive announcement on YouTube with Emma: get Dr. Barry, follow overweight person for a year, type 2 diabetes/autoimmune cases. Most happened: got Dr. Barry, Dr. Chaffee, followed Bill Kin etc., 60 interviews. Far harder than imagined; hardest thing Kerry's done, credits carnivore.
Biggest lesson: interviewing is about listening, not questions. Best moments from shutting up, letting people share truth. Yearning to tell stories; project "bigger than us" (Adam's words).
Advice from Chad: never interrupt emotional stories. Kerry wanted to hug Bill Kin during tears but sat still—therapeutic for Bill, essential for doc. Happened multiple times; emotional documentary. Test screenings powerful.
Focus: stories spotlight, supported by science/experts (9 doctors). Can't please everyone or answer all questions (fiber, ketones). Goal: inspire questions/research, not immediate carnivore start. Nuance to carnivore; do research first. Other docs focus more on science.
Test screening feedback achieved balance; runtime not too long.
Most significant: depression gone, mental health improved—main documentary reason. Depression = hopelessness; tried standard care, meds, therapy for years, nothing worked. Cleared quickly; many stories incoming, stats jaw-dropping (depression, schizophrenia, bipolar, anxiety rising, younger ages).
Also reversed congestive heart failure, irregular heartbeat—may extend life.
Inspired by Kerry's interview of someone with weight loss + deep depression lifting (didn't know doctors like Dr. Barry, Baker, Chaffee, Kiltz, Ovadia, Boss yet). Felt hopeless pain since age 5 (knew church suicide). Depression hurts.
Jumped into carnivore after 6 months strict low carb (knew Atkins 35-40 years); no keto flu.
Kerry jumped in too (prior keto experience) but now advises go slow, research.
West Virginia (most overweight state); Maha bill passed, hopes for doctor CEUs in nutrition. Doctors get some nutrition training (even degrees), but not keto/carnivore metabolic focus.
George (UK ambassador): volunteers/teams for theater lobbies Q&A—great idea.
Test screening details: Montello Theater + another; $15 bribe to clueless general public via newspaper ads (hid from carnivore audience). 15-min Q&A lasted 2.5 hours; basic questions (e.g., chicken?). Indicates demand for showings.
Nicole: joke if Dr. Nelson "carnivore Uncle Fester."
Fuel violin girl Konfield Bilinger: Healing Humanity on DVD? No current plans; focus theaters, streaming, eventual YouTube/free access. Hybrid releases common (e.g., Netflix US-first rules). DVD fading tech.
No immediate new doc (wife would leave). Focus: series with episode per major health issue (cancer with cancer doc + metabolic therapy stories; depression, autoimmune, etc.). Much footage already (400 hours total; enough for mental health, aging, cancer episodes). Budget prioritized main doc/marketing first; editing expensive.
Shorter episodes on health issues and also
Excited about episodes on various topics beyond health issues. Hal Cranmer in Arizona runs long-term care facilities; wished to interview for main documentary but planning a dedicated episode on seniors and proper human diet. Arn, a veteran, experienced incredible mental health and PTSD healing through carnivore diet and now coaches other veterans—planning a whole episode. Other topics include kids and carnivore, families on carnivore. Dr. Troll and team conducting study with Hal Cranmer's facilities; results will take a year or two. Internet and social media help spread the word despite risks.
Yeah, absolutely. That stuff with Hal Cranmer should be front page news. There are YouTube videos, but people go to his facilities as final homes—yet residents get sent home. Individuals like one guy now surfing after going back home. Will keep talking about it to make it front page news; many would do it if they knew.
Not a physician but can highlight diet changes with proper human diet.
Interviewed many on carnivore and autoimmune: lupus in remission, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis (several cases). Doing deep dives; met someone with MS who had incredible improvement in two weeks—returned to gym despite fatigue.
Autoimmune like MS: body attacking itself hard to grasp; no other instance of immune system self-attack. Mainstream dismisses carnivore healings as anecdotal, no long-term studies. Suggesting proper human diet as elimination diet for 30-60 days. MS involves myelin sheath damage (fat and cholesterol) and inflammation; carnivore provides fat and reduces inflammation. Blows mind that sufferers won't try due to doctors calling it anecdotal. Would try everything natural if diagnosed. Humanity ate this way most of existence—heavy meat, plants added later. Veganism term only past 50 years; historical vegetarians had eggs, dairy.
Autoimmune misnomer: body attacks own tissues due to antigens (99.9999% from plants, not red meat) via molecular/cellular mimicry.
Plan to interview Hal Cranmer's healed tenants; one gentleman now surfing—goal to show before/after footage and story.
Clear outline for episodes on major health issues, interviewees, some holes to fill. Biggest unknown: budget. Filming very frugal (e.g., filmed Dr. Berry with just two people vs. 30 on other docs). Editor John finishing documentary; limited budget left—allocate to series or marketing? Marketing most expensive; greatest film unseen without it. Even if Martin Scorsese directed Healing Humanity for Oscars, needs marketing. Challenge: prioritize main documentary marketing; success enables series.
First introduced via Dante Ferraro's story (huge guy with depression, IBS, arthritis like speaker). Initial reaction: insane, strict keto but boring, expensive, clogs arteries, heart disease risk. After research (knew keto from prior doc), watched Dante's two-year transformation video—glowing, joyful, convinced speaker and wife.
Steering clear of AI; avoided for B-roll (e.g., grocery store shots expensive). Documentary 100% real voices/video; tinkered minimally for promo phrasing.
Most common: cholesterol/heart attack. Many waited for bloodwork post-carnivore start. Counter: 10-11 better indicators (poor metabolic health, insulin resistance, inflammation, pre-diabetes). Heart disease from insulin resistance/inflammation; carnivore best alongside fasting. Misled since Ancel Keys; dogma persists.
Loved ones died (uncle heart attack, grandfather stroke) on standard American diet (SAD) with inflammation, insulin resistance, overweight—not carnivore. G. Brown (Hanging with the Browns, Gian Frederick) says: > "People tell me I'm going to die of a heart attack. Give me a contract for 10 more years on carnivore then die on year 10, or back to SAD—I'd sign without blinking."
Speaker's heart metrics improved drastically: CAC score zero, good particles on advanced lipid panel, congestive heart failure reversed. Pre-carnivore vs. post: 50 heart echo measurements nearly all improved (stroke volume, wall thickness, heart size). On statins 15 years with muscle aches, brain fog, memory issues (possible side effects). Could've done $50 CAC scan earlier; doctors never mentioned CAC, advanced lipids, insulin resistance/inflammation—pushed statins, flecainide, metoprolol.
Suggestions: imaging episode (Dr. Sean Omera on visceral fat imaging). Kids and carnivore priority—several documentary interviewees' children thriving on proper human diet. Next generation eating worse; worry for their future health.
US changes incredible for awareness (low-fat, calorie counting, food pyramid myths), but individual choice key. School meals horrifying processed garbage despite parents' efforts. Desire: subsidize regenerative grass-fed/grass-finished farmers (e.g., neighbor Aaron, sixth-generation, works factory job to survive, passionate). Endless subsidized corn fields become high fructose corn syrup in processed foods; redirect to proper diet farmers. Amazed at speed—thought decades for change when announcing doc 2.5 years ago.
Politics hijacked; 1970s subsidies to struggling farmers created unintended consequences (like student loans/universities).
Coach Juliet Edens: People push back with heart attack fears as defense mechanism to avoid junk food, even seeing success.
Started relatively soon after Dante video but researched more (feared heart issues from fatty meat). Found Dr. Berry, Dr. Ovadia (heart surgeon on carnivore via Diary of a CEO). Advise research first, nuance: don't jump in eating lean chicken, ensure electrolytes/framework—many fail otherwise.
Accepts Rick's heart attack burger challenge (like heart attack chicken: deep fry burger in beef tallow). Did Rick's KFC chicken recipe at home—credited, now eats chicken more. Did sous vide deep-fried chuck roast in beef tallow.
Susan Hog mentions Dr. Nick Norwitz's great videos on nuances with metabolism regarding keto and carnivore diets. Dr. Nelson agrees he's very good and does a lot of good content.
Uncle Charlie asks: Some people say sugar does not feed all kinds of tumors. Is that true or false? Does sugar feed all tumors?
Kerry responds: There are different types of cancers that behave differently. She doesn't get into all the nuances. For cancer questions, she suggests checking out Professor Thomas Seyfried—you can email him with your type of cancer, and he'll send a packet of information. If she had any type of tumor, she would do a carnivore diet. This is not because of bias from her documentary. Cancer feeds on glucose and glutamine, so she would eliminate those. Some weird cancers might behave differently, but she learned from Professor Seyfried that chronic inflammation damages mitochondria and leads to cancer. Eliminating sugar, inflammation, and seed oils—anything inflammatory—is best done with a carnivore diet.
Kerry gets questions like 'Would carnivore help with X?' for random diseases, and her answer is always yes. Carnivore overhypes it, but it fixes the gut microbiome, increases energy, improves sleep, strengthens the immune system, eliminates insulin resistance, reduces inflammation, and heals fatty liver. This sets you up for healing regardless of the disease, issue, or ailment. Other than fasting, nothing is better for setting yourself up for healing.
Dr. Nelson mentions Dr. Kiltz talks about fat, faith, and fasting. Introduces Homestead How, started with homestead videos, now a whole enterprise on the documentary and carnivore—check it out. For Kiltz Mighty Tribe members, a Zoom call at 1.5 hours (5:30). Thanks Kerry.
Kerry thanks Dr. Nelson and Dr. Kiltz for being incredible supporters of Healing Humanity, attending meetups, and having her on.
