Fertility Nutrition
Functional nutrition targets specific foods that promote wellness and create optimal health. Fertility-promoting foods can address various nutritional needs and enhance the chances of getting pregnant.
A handful of foods contain the highest amount of key nutrients. Eating a minimal amount of these key foods eliminates the need to take certain supplements.
It is important to note that nutritional improvements from eating specific foods and/or consuming key supplements can take at least three months to become effective. As a result, consistency, compliance, and commitment are key.
