TOP 10 NUTRITIONAL SUPPLEMENTS & TIPS TO INCREASE YOUR FERTILITY

 

• Start taking your nutritional supplements at least 3 to 4 months before your IVF treatment or natural fertility cycle commences.  
•  Drink at least 2 liters of water a day. Water is vitally important for every cell in the body and helps to remove and eliminate toxins. 
• Vitamin C: 500 mg a day will help collagen production and is vital for wound healing following egg retrieval. There is some evidence to suggest that it may help to prevent miscarriage.  Reduce Vitamin C intake to 250mg before transfer.  
• Folic Acid: helps prevents spina bifida and produce DNA and RNA. 
• CoQ10: May improve blood flow, enrich endometrium, and improve fertilization rates, “mitochondrial nutrients” may improve egg quality and response to ovarian stimulation. Can improve sperm quality. 
• Bromalein: Using Pineapple & pineapple core can help to assist implantation: Pineapple contains bromelain. Bromelain is a proteolytic enzyme that breaks up proteins that inhibit embryo implantation. Consuming a whole pineapple (focusing on the core as it has the highest concentration of Bromelain) during a fertility cycle can be beneficial.
