The Fertility Diet

November 29th, 2007

Here is a news report on the latest findings about eating a fertility diet…

Question:

 I read on your site about the fertility cleanse and
was wondering what the diet was? I cannot eat a lot of grains, and have
found that a lot of the times, on a cleansing diet you are supposed to
eat whole grains and not a lot of animal products. That would leave me
eating mostly green vegetables, since I have a blood sugar problem.
Would I be able to do it?

I have been so busy shooting the videos for my upcoming fertility program that I have not been able to respond to many of the questions that you all have been asking. So I took a moment out and created this video to answer some of them…

 I mentioned sublingual progesterone in the video. You can find out more about that in this fertility progesterone guide.

Tubal Reversal Success Story

November 4th, 2007

Here is another great success email that I received….

 Hethir, I took your advice and relaxed while trying to
get pregnant, after having a tubal reversal. I found out I’m 5.5weeks
pregnant. I was wondering if there is a smoothie that is fantastic and
safe to have in the mornings, which will be full of great things for me
and the baby.

Thanks,

 Maree
 

Study:

Women who followed a combination of five or more lifestyle factors, including changing specific aspects of their diets, experienced more than 80 percent less relative risk of infertility due to ovulatory disorders compared to women who engaged in none of the factors, according to a paper published in the November 1, 2007, issue of Obstetrics & Gynecology.

The study was led by researchers at the Harvard School of Public Health (HSPH) and did not examine risk associated with other kinds of infertility, such as low sperm count in men.

“The key message of this paper is that making the right dietary choices and including the right amount of physical activity in your daily life may make a large difference in your probability of becoming fertile if you are experiencing problems with ovulation,”

Hethir:

It is great to see research being performed on the effects of diet and lifestyle on fertility and ovulation. The results are not surprising to me at all, but refreshing. Once again an 80% success rate using a natural approach…

There are three areas included in this study where if you made lifestyle shifts now could make a big difference in your fertility.

Diet/nutrition:Eat a whole foods diet with emphasis on organic, fresh foods. Take a multivitamin…

Stress: Have a stress reducing “practice” in your life such as exercise, meditation or yoga. Learn more about the effects of stress in this article.

Exercise: Exercising every day makes for a healthy body in general…

All of these factors are not new news. They work because they help to bring the body back into balance, where your fertility is abundant.

There are many new fertility tests available on the market. I created this video to introduce you to some of them…
