DIETITIAN

Nutrition plays a big role when it comes to have a healthy body and a positive reproductive system. The building blocks for hormones are found in the foods we eat. Antioxidants which help to protect the egg and sperm from free radicals are found in the foods that we eat. Just as nutrients in food can be helpful for fertility, there are some foods and chemicals added to foods that can be harmful for your health and fertility.

When most of us think of fertility treatment as sophisticated diagnostic testing, powerful medications, and high-tech procedures, choosing certain foods and drinks to influence your ability to become pregnant might sound more like a folktale wisdom than medical advice. Our dietitian may know better from his own relevant experience. He says ‘maintain a healthy weight to keep your reproductive cycle in balance’.
