IVF Before and AfterNaturally, enhance your fertility
Welcome to another episode of the IVF Before & After Podcast. In this episode, Kay shares how eating a fertile diet in preparation for pregnancy and to boost fertility is one of the most powerful health changes you can make.
Kay explains how you cannot improve the egg quality, but you can improve the body in which the egg develops. It's beneficial to have a balanced diet when receiving IVF treatment including protein, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and fatty acids. For fertility and IVF, the food you eat is just as important as nurturing and feeding your food cells.
Learn the secrets to maintaining a balanced diet through the IVF treatment cycle and how you too can give yourself and your baby the best possible chance.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- You need to look at pre-conception and a nutritional plan for 12 weeks prior for all partners concerned. With IVF stimulation medication the sperm takes 85 days to mature. However, do not remove everything from your food intake, but assess what you eat in excess and attempt to reduce
- If you're cutting out certain foods such as wheat and gluten, make sure you take nutrients to replace them.
- Remember when you start thinking of the IVF journey begin taking a folic acid supplement
