Top 5 Reasons to Start Making Fertility Smoothies Today!

If you’ve begun having a daily Fertility Smoothie, HIGH FIVE! If you haven’t, consider this easy, delicious, nutrient-packed, balanced (be sure to add protein) way to start the day and boost your fertility naturally. Fertility Smoothies are:

1. Rich in Antioxidants – Antioxidants protect cellular health, DNA integrity, and are necessary for sperm and egg health. They protect the entire body from free-radical damage. Lipoic acid, vitamin E, vitamin C, CoQ10, and glutathione are five fertility-protective antioxidants you should be consuming daily. A Fertility Smoothie filled with colorful fruits and veggies as a part of your Fertility Diet will help you get there!

2. Packed with vitamins and minerals – It is crucial to make sure to get enough vital nutrients daily when preparing for conception and wanting to boost fertility health. Vitamins and minerals (antioxidants too) are necessary for maintaining hormonal balance, nourishing the female egg, helping build healthy sperm, and creating a baby. It’s no mystery that whole foods provide an array of important nutrients for fertility.

3. High in fiber – Whole fruits and vegetables, versus just their juice (enjoy fresh-squeezed juices though too!), are naturally high in fiber, fiber that benefits your fertility when it gets blended into your smoothie. Fiber naturally slows digestion to reduce the post-meal insulin spike, supports healthy elimination (helps keep the colon clean) and, perhaps most important, fiber supports the body’s natural ability to metabolize and eliminate excess estrogen and xenohormones.

4. Easy to fill with Fertility Superfoods – Fertility Superfoods like Maca, greens powder containing Spirulina and Royal Jelly, Goji berries, essential fatty acids, etc. The following are in our convenient Fertility Smoothie Kit…

  • Maca (Lepidium meyenii) is one of our favorite ways to support endocrine system function, libido, and energy levels (without caffeine).
  • Greens powder like FertiliGreensTM that contains Spirulina provide dark leafy greens and veggies in one serving. The blue-green algae, Spirulina, is considered to be of the highest quality protein, superior to all other plant proteins and an excellent source of antioxidants, vitamins and minerals, and essential fatty acids.
  • Royal Jelly provides support to the endocrine system through its superior nutritional profile – amino acids, lipids, vitamins, sugars, proteins, fatty acids, iron, calcium and Acetylcholine (which transmits nerve impulses from cell to cell) – protecting liver, egg and sperm health, while supporting healthy immune system function.

5. An empowering fertility tool – You get to choose what you eat! You get to make food choices for yourself every day. This is one part of a fertility journey not dictated by testing, doctor’s/therapist’s/specialist’s schedules, cycle timing, BBT or ovulation, or how much you feel “in the mood”. Smoothies are a great way to hide foods you may not otherwise care to eat and they are perfect for sharing with your partner! And now you know how much you are benefitting yourself by starting your day off right with one nutrient-packed, yummy smoothie.

Tips for Getting Started

The easiest way to turn any smoothie into a Fertility Smoothie and balanced protein/carbohydrate beverage is to rely on the Fertility Smoothie Kit. This kit comes with the Fertility Smoothies: Elixirs for Optimal Fertility eBook that is filled with over 72 fertility smoothie recipes. If you haven’t yet begun making smoothies, join our The 10 Day Fertility Smoothie Challenge! 10 days of fertility smoothie recipes will be delivered to your email inbox (you can even keep remaking the ones you love after the challenge is up). Enjoy this easy, tasty way of boosting your fertility and making eating healthier a habit!

To make an impact on your health, you will need to first learn the actions and steps to take... then you will need to be consistent with those actions. It is the consistency that brings you the results. You are going to be human and not be perfect 100% of the time. Just accept that and get back to it. Consistency, day in and out, is more important than being perfect. You can't be 100% perfect for long, but you can be consistent every day.

If you’ve undergone many consecutive fertility treatments without a successful pregnancy, it could be time for a break. Taking a break gives your body a chance to cleanse, reset and recover. Relief from the side effects and stress could be exactly what you need for a fresh start for your fertility journey.

Use the time to work on yourself- mind and body. A break might even give you the opportunity to find a new sense of peace or a new version of your fertility program.

I knew what my life's calling was at a very young age. At around 16, I had a dream where a dreadlocked rasta man came to me (Burning Spears to be exact) and in that dream was told that I was to be a healer. It was the type of dream that was more real than reality. The next day I woke up feeling different than I had ever felt before. Later on that day, we had new neighbors move into the house above us and a woman came and introduced herself. When I opened the door, she said her name and told me she was opening up a school of healing and that I was to be one of her students. It was one of the most intense series of events in my life. I went on to go to her school and my path started with an amazing community and so much support. What are one of the most life changing experiences you have had? I would love to hear...

Stress can be one of the primary factors behind infertility. Believe it or not, our bodies are equipped to prevent conception from occurring during times of extreme stress. The presence of adrenaline, the hormone that is released by our bodies during stressful times, signals to our body that conditions are not ideal for conception. Adrenaline inhibits us from utilizing the hormone progesterone, which is essential for fertility. It also causes the pituitary gland to release higher levels of prolactin, which also causes infertility to occur.
